Simplode Suite News

2021-03-01 - Released Version 1.1.1.429

• When using the Caps Lock Overload feature, it is now possible to turn caps lock on (the original function of caps lock) by double pressing the caps lock button. This behavior can be turned off with the Caps Lock Overload Double Press option.
• Added an option to enable system audio volume synchronization with Simplode Suite. This feature was previously on by default, but it has been reported to cause problems on some devices, so it is now available as an option and is disabled by default.

2021-02-02 - Released Version 1.1.1.389

• To avoid confusion, the Free Trial segment of the Welcome screen is now hidden if you have unlocked every package.
• Reduced memory usage of the menu ring by loading each ring on demand. If the memory management strategy is set to Maximum Performance, the ring will be preloaded as before.
• Reduced memory usage when the menu ring is closed. If the memory management strategy is set to Maximum Performance, the ring will remain in memory for faster access.
• It is now possible to open multiple separate ring menus simultaneously. It can be accessed in the (...) menu of the flyout for a menu under (🔾*) New Ring Menu, which will launch that menu as a new ring.
• Fixed an error that could occur when exiting the application.
• Fixed issue with weather tray icons not being visible if more color icons are turned off.
• Fixed issue when attempting to open Simplode Suite when Simplode Suite is already open. The cancel button now properly closes the new launch attempt.
• Slightly optimized glow effects by removing unused code.
• Fixed issue where reloading icons could cause the tool to go become temporarily unresponsive and use excessive amounts of memory.
• Changing the glow icon intensity setting or glow icon effect enabled setting will now reload all icons.
• Added the Caps Lock Overload feature. If enabled, the caps lock key is overloaded. Holding the caps lock key will activate both the Windows key and the control key. This can give you quicker access to more hotkey choices in most applications that support custom hotkeys. This will also block caps lock from being enabled.

• Mouse display no longer shows in taskbar.
• Added task bar tasks. When right clicking on the Simplode Suite task bar entry, you can now easily access the Ring Menu Settings, the Ring in Taskbar option, the Main Menu, and the Action Search.
• Fixed an issue with the Toggle Ring Menu hotkey management not working in certain situations.
• Fixed an exception in the Hidden Actions feature.
• Fixed a rare exception during application startup.
• Fixed an issue with the translation engine attempting to translate already translated text.
• Fixed some missing translations throughout the application.
• Added a basic hotkey manager to see all of the tool's hotkeys in one screen.
• Removed the default hotkey for Restart Explorer.
• Removed the default hotkey for Sleep.
• Changed the default hotkey for Toggle Ring Menu to [Win]+[Shift]+[Tab] to avoid conflicts with web browsers.
• Added more options to the Screen Off feature:
  Blackout Mode: The screen off feature will keep turning the screen off until you hit a key or click with the mouse. Additionally, it will black out the entire screen. This helps in case your mouse erroneously wakes up the screens.
  Lock Screen: This is the same as Blackout Mode, except when the screen is restored the lock screen will be activated. This is less secure than immediately activating the lock screen, but the lock screen is more of a casual deterrence measure anyways if an adversary has physical access to your machine.
