New in v1.14.0

New features & improvements:

  • Added a Windows 11 UI, available as an option for both Windows 10 & 11 users. Additionally, there have been several small tweaks to the UI to better reflect the Windows 10/11 UI.
  • Added settings to show contrast, volume, and power options for supported displays. You can find these features in the new "DDC/CI Features" settings menu.
  • Added an option for idle detection. Your displays can automatically dim after a set amount of time.
  • Added an option to hide your laptop/tablet's display from the brightness flyout when closed or disabled.
  • Updated process for reading monitor info to improve accuracy and responsiveness.
  • Restored WMIC code from v1.13.10 and improved handling of WMIC/WMI failures.
  • Updated command line options and implementation.
  • Made Time of Day adjustments slower/smoother.

Other information:

  • By default, Twinkle Tray no longer gets the latest brightness for DDC/CI displays. This is to prevent issues with some displays and reduce visual glitches. If you would like to restore the old behavior, it's available in the "DDC/CI Features" menu in Settings.
  • I have chosen to go with an emulated "Mica" material over "Acrylic", as implementing Acrylic with rounded corners is currently impossible.
  • The "Mica" effect in the Windows 11 UI currently only works on the main display. It also does not correctly detect slideshow wallpapers. If you use slideshow wallpapers, I recommend turning off Mica.
  • Special thanks to @DustRaider8, @rp1231, @pc-v2, and the many other users who helped debug issues and provided feedback for this update.
