v1.15.0

Software

New in v1.15.0

New features & improvements:

• Implemented new UI for the hotkey overlay when using the Windows 11 style.
• Refactored the Time of Day Adjustments code to be more reliable.
• Time of Day Adjustments will now use the user's transition setting under most conditions.
• Added option to animate between the current and next Time of Day Adjustment time throughout the day.
• Implemented CLI option to trigger current Time of Day Adjustment.
• Refactored the Idle Detection system and UI to be more flexible and precise.
• Added options to the system tray right-click menu for pausing Idle Detection and Time of Day Adjustments.
• Added option to switch to Beta update channel (not available for Microsoft Store version).
• Fixed a bug that could cause excessive CPU/RAM usage at startup.
• Improved focus handling.
• Updated localizations.

Other information:

• The new Windows 11 hotkey overlay is not intended to be a 1:1 recreation of the native brightness/volume flyout. Please don't open an issue that it isn't exactly the same. Bug reports are welcome.
• The new Time of Day Adjustment animation setting will more actively keep your scheduled brightness in sync. This may increase CPU usage. It will also be more difficult to manually set brightness due to the scheduled brightness kicking in every minute or so.
