  6. Myfinder control center adds microphone access program display function, when there is a program using the microphone, the control center will display the program in use
  7. Added super top-level function. After opening, the program window can go to the top level of the system, including the Windows lock screen interface, which can be opened in Preferences - Global Settings


[h3]Supplementary notes on the super top level[/h3]
  • If the program is installed in the C drive, you can directly start this effect. If it is installed in another partition, a copy of the exe program will be copied to the C:\Program Files\MyDockFinder directory, and the program installation directory will be saved in config.ini. If enabled The program cannot be started after the super-top, and the entire folder C:\Program Files\MyDockFinder needs to be deleted manually. Currently only 64-bit operating systems can enable this feature, because this permission is very high to prevent others from using it to do bad things
  • At present, it is known that there will be other program window activation problems after opening, and the window cannot be activated to the top of the screen after clicking the window with the mouse. If this problem occurs frequently, you can turn off the super top level. The reason is still under investigation.

1.8.4 Official Version Released

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

[h3]Changelog[/h3]
  1. Myfinder adds the background wallpaper accent color function. You can adjust the myfinder background wallpaper accent color in Preferences - Themes. When adjusting 50, it is similar to mac. The wallpaper accent color does not apply to live wallpapers. Please note that this feature is color density, not transparency
  2. Added dynamic wallpaper blur function to the launchpad. After turning it on, it may crash. If it crashes, please turn off this function. It is not recommended to enable this option if it is not a dynamic wallpaper. This function will consume a lot of GPU.
  3. myfinder has added the function of turning off the display of lyrics, which is turned off by default after this update
  4. myfinder adds media control buttons, which can be turned on in preferences - myfinder general
  5. Fix the wrong problem of bluetooth battery display in the previous version of myfinder
  6. Redesigned the preferences section interface


I upgraded mac os13 this week and researched the new features, and the unit has been busy these days, so the super-top function has not been added, and the super-top must be installed on the C drive to take effect. If it is not installed on the C-disk, there will be no super-top effect. I'm thinking of other ways, or copy the super top core function to the C drive and start the program, but when uninstalling this way, don't forget to turn off the super top, otherwise there will be residues

[h3]next version update[/h3]
1. Super top function
2. The rounded corners of the screen are perfect only when the super top function is turned on.
3. Modify the preference settings interface, and then complete the notification settings page

There is also the mac os 13 foreground scheduling function, which is really difficult to implement, mainly animation. It cannot be controlled at the system level, and there are many kinds of Windows system program windows, unlike the mac os unified, but the window list on the left is very simple for winui, it cannot be said that it is completely impossible, but it is very difficult and requires a lot of programs Do testing, and old programs may be incompatible and crash.

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.
