1.8.3 Official Version Released

The beta version of this update is the same as the official version without switching channels

[h3]Changelog[/h3]
  1. Added app library icon size and icon spacing adjustment functions, which can be adjusted in preferences
  2. The advanced editing icon function is added to the application library icon, which is the same as editing the dock icon.
  3. Fix the problem that the background of the application library is displayed incorrectly after using the wallpaper engine in the previous version
  4. Preferences add global bold font function
  5. Add Chinese input method Chinese and English detection function
  6. Before optimization, all versions show a series of failure problems in Bluetooth headset or WiFi after the power of Bluetooth device is displayed (to be tested)
  7. Corrected Italian translation, thanks to netizen @sethy
  8. Fix the problem of incomplete translation in some places in the previous version



[h3]If the user who has not updated the test version before this update, the previous application library configuration will disappear and reset, because the application library is completely rewritten and added the function of synchronizing the start menu, so the detection method will change, and the icon needs to be reset after the update . The application library delete icon is the same as the iPhone or Android phone, and there will be a delete button after pressing any icon.[/h3]

I'm sorry that this update did not add the function of myfinder lyrics and media control adjustment, because I studied the input method of win11 for three days before. In the last few days, I have been researching the problem of Bluetooth power, and I have searched the entire registry to think of a new detection method.

[h3]Updates in the next version[/h3]
  • Unfinished media control features, turn off lyrics and separate media control buttons
  • Notification management, you can set the notification method of each message prompt program, you can only remind the first time or every time, I also try to take over the system notification, the previous version is to take over the notification, but the click can not activate the system notification normally The built-in function was removed
  • The super top-level function mentioned last time

The next version is expected to be updated tomorrow or the day after, because it is still repairing the problem of the sound of the bluetooth headset being stuck. At present, the advanced editing icon function of the launchpad has been completed, the problem of using the wallpaper launchpad background error has been fixed, and the global font has been bolded. The function can display the Chinese and English status of the input method, and the myfinder media control buttons and some interface translations are not completed.

During the current test, it is found that clicking the preference settings pop-up menu will have a probability of crash, especially when there is a pop-up window after clicking the menu, such as switching the global language, and clicking the pop-up menu again will crash, and no errors can be found during the debugging process. The manual avoidance is to click on the menu prompt pop-up window and do not manually click the pop-up menu button again.

Finally, I put a heavyweight function. It is expected to be added in the next next version. Super top. After adding super top, the screen rounding function can be added. The following is the picture when I was debugging.because that's the Windows lock screen

1.8.2 Test Version Released

Due to the serious epidemic situation in Tianjin recently, basically this week, I get up at 5:00 to do nucleic acid work, and I am not very energetic, so this update cycle is a little longer.

[h3]Changelog[/h3]

  1. Added Greek translation, thanks to netizen @deligiorgis2
  2. Solve the problem of false positives in previous versions
  3. Add custom adjustment function of dock activation bar, which can be set in Preferences - mydock advanced
  4. The dock adds a start menu icon, which can be added in the Add system icon. The right button of the start menu icon is the WIN+X menu item
  5. Fixed the issue that the volume synthesizer in the volume menu of myfinder could not be folded and retracted
  6. Optimize the cover of myfinder media control music player, such as QQ Music, Netease Cloud, etc. cannot display the cover. After optimization, if the player window such as QQ Music or Netease Cloud is displayed, myfinder media control can display the music cover
  7. The rendering structure of the application library is completely rewritten, and the WinUI rendering is cancelled and the most basic Direct2D rendering is used. The disadvantage is that the dynamic blur effect can no longer be displayed, and it can only display the static image taken from the snapshot and then blurred.
  8. The application library adds the function of synchronizing the start menu and desktop program icons. You can choose to enable it in the preferences - mydock general. After the configuration is switched for the first time, the icon configuration of the launch pad will be reset. The three icon display methods correspond to three different configuration files. They are padconfig.xml, padconfig_startmenu.xml, padconfig_desktop.xml, three configuration files


[h3]Several known issues[/h3]
  • On some computers, the WiFi connection is unstable and easy to disconnect after turning on Bluetooth and showing the battery level
  • After the WiFi is turned on, the sound of some Bluetooth headsets is intermittent, and sometimes the headset is frequently displayed and then disconnected immediately


[h3]Important note[/h3]
[h3] After this update, the previous application library configuration will disappear and reset. Because the function of synchronizing the start menu is completely rewritten, the detection method will change, and the icon needs to be reset after the update. The delete icon on the launchpad is the same as the iPhone or Android phone, and there will be a delete button after pressing and holding any icon.[/h3]


The content of the next version update, in view of the current epidemic situation is still relatively serious, I live in Hebei District, the entire district has been blocked, and there is a high probability that I will continue to do nucleic acid next week, so the next version will add some functions with a small amount of engineering.

  • App library icon batch and advanced editing functions, the same as the dock advanced editing icon
  • App library defines icon size and spacing
  • The sorting of application library icons is automatically completed
  • Fix the two known issues above (as much as possible)
  • myfinder independent media control function, no need to open the volume menu
  • There is also the most important input method display in Chinese and English. The way I think of at present is similar to the desktop lyrics. Use winui to take over the window preview, and then display it in myfinder with discoloration processing. However, it may be difficult to detect in win11. I also try my best to achieve it.

1.8.1 Test Version Released

[h3]Changelog[/h3]
  1. Fixed the previous version of the dock window preview media control display abnormal problem
  2. myfinder media control adapts to several mainstream players, such as QQ Music, Netease Cloud, Kugou, etc.
  3. Fix the problem that the Ukrainian and Russian input methods are not displayed
  4. Fix the problem that the right-click menu of the dock folder interface disappears automatically
  5. Optimized minimized animation rendering
  6. Adjust the myfinder volume menu to display the volume synthesizer to prevent the problem that the touch screen computer cannot be adjusted. After clicking the system volume, all process volumes will be displayed
  7. I found an old version of dockmod, which should not report poison, but it seems to have a little less function, but I forgot what function I have. ːsteamfacepalmː
  8. Optimize the loading speed of application library icons
  9. Fix and optimize other issues
  10. In the last myfinder lyrics, please read the following content for detailed settings



Final effect
The KTV effect will only be displayed when the white text is displayed, which may be the reason of the color matrix, and it will not be displayed when the black text is displayed.
Lyrics cannot be adjusted, they are placed at the far left of the right button by default. The lyrics function is enabled by default and does not need to be opened in the preferences. You need to open the desktop lyrics that come with the player, and then myfinder will automatically recognize it. Currently, it supports QQ Music, NetEase Cloud Music, Kugou Music, Kuwo Music, as well as the lyrics plugin Lyricify and Hot Words. The third-party NetEase Cloud uses Hot Words can be identified. Click the myfinder lyrics to hide and display the desktop lyrics that come with the player, preventing the problem of displaying two lyrics at the same time.
However, the desktop lyrics need to be set to have a perfect display effect.
The first is the font. It will be more coordinated to choose the same font as myfinder. The program defaults to Microsoft Yahei.
The second is the font color. At present, the test effect, the blacker the font color, the thinner the font display. For example, if the font is not played in the renderings, the font is pure black, and the playback font color is gray to display the KTV effect. Of course, it is not limited to black and white, color It is also possible, as long as it is dark and light, the difference will be shown. The darker the color, the thinner the font. Do not display text borders or bold text.

The third is that the lyrics must be displayed on a single line, and they must be displayed horizontally, not vertically. Do not display the translated lyrics and Japanese phonetic symbols or katakana. The single-line text display is the best.

At present, the function of searching lyrics online is not supported.

[h3]Written at the end, about the problem that the latest version of dockmod has been reported to be poisoned, the specific reason is not very clear to me, and the last update of dockmod was in version 1.7.1, version 1.8 has not been updated, but I have recently started to contact the purchase code After signing the certificate, there will be no poisoning after the certificate.[/h3]

Update patch dockmod

Since many people reported that dockmod has been reported to be poisoned after the update yesterday, I recompiled it today and hoped to fix this problem
