MyDockFinder News

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.
  

[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]

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

The official version channel and the beta version channel of this update are the same version, no need to switch

[h3]Changelog[/h3]

1. Fixed the overflow problem of the media title text in the myfinder control center in the previous version
   
2. Fix the problem that the file cannot be dragged into the dock in the previous test version
   
3. Fix the problem that the browser window menu such as edge cannot switch tabs in the previous version
   
4. Fix the problem of exceeding the screen when there are too many icons in the myfinde tray list
   
5. Cancel myfinder to hide the menu bar of other programs to prevent other programs from displaying abnormally or crashing
   
6. Myfinder adds the function of displaying and closing other programs menu
   
7. Myfinder adds the way to display the Bluetooth connection device, you can choose not to display, only display the icon, display the icon and power
   
8. Fixed the problem that the folder icon in the dock folder interface cannot be dragged and cannot be completely hidden after dragging and dropping
   
9. Fixed the problem of prompting an error after clicking on individual system menus in the dock right-click menu
   
10. The dock folder interface adds a hidden open button in the explorer
    

I haven't figured out what to update for the next version, and I will start after a break during the May Day holiday.
Because many people feedback that they want myfinder to display the lyrics, I thought that there are two ways to display the lyrics. One is a player with its own desktop lyrics, directly using WinUI to take over the window preview of the desktop lyrics, and then change the color and other operations. There is also a player that supports system media control, which can obtain the name of the song being played, the singer and the playing progress, and then obtain the lyrics from the Internet.
Then there is the rewriting of the application library. The way to take into account the performance and stability is to use the WinUI XAML structure, but the use of C++ requires a system above 1903. Of course, this is only a current idea.
