`Open-Shell` hooks `SHFillRectClr` (ordinal 197) API from `shlwapi.dll`
in order to be able to customize taskbar.
The API is hooked even if taskbar customization is disabled in `Open-Shell` (default).
`WindowBlinds` hooks the same API so this is causing clashes between
both programs.
In fact `Open-Shell` hooks later which makes `WindowBlinds` hook to be
completely ignored.
The solution would be to hook only if taskbar customization is enabled.
This way `Open-Shell` should be more compatible with other customization
tools in default state.
Fixes#433.
Some icons (modern settings, jump-list tasks) are monochrome, basically
they are defined just by alpha channel.
Thus they can be displayed in any color (white is default).
Since these icons are white by default, they look nice on dark
backgrounds. But they are not very visible on light backgrounds.
Thus the idea is to 'colorize' such icon using color of corresponding
text item. That way they will always have proper color.
Fixes#466.
Task jump-list items for modern apps require special handling.
First of all they don't provide icon directly.
Icon location is stored in `PKEY_AppUserModel_DestListLogoUri` property.
And then has to be resolved for given application package.
Next, context menu of provided `IShellLink` item doesn't seem to be able
to start actual link target.
Thus we need to obtain context menu of target item.
Fixes#375.
Link to modern application will be treat as modern application itself.
This fixes jump-lists and invert metro color option on modern apps pinned
to start menu.
Based on `HostId`:
* {7E0522FC-1AC4-41CA-AFD0-3610417A9C41}
execute `shell:::{PageId}`
* {12B1697E-D3A0-4DBC-B568-CCF64A3F934D}
execute command in `DeepLink`
Currently it was used only in some cases (like Programs/Apps folder).
It will be more consistent to respect the setting for all folder
items.
Fixes#436.
Adds virtual shell folder that contains items representing modern settings parsed from
`%windir%\ImmersiveControlPanel\Settings\AllSystemSettings_{253E530E-387D-4BC2-959D-E6F86122E5F2}.xml`.
It can be accessed via `shell:::{82E749ED-B971-4550-BAF7-06AA2BF7E836}` (in explorer).
Item in folder will open given setting page in `Settings` application.
Some projects do register COM server in Debug/Release sonfigurations.
We should do it with per-user redirection so that there is no need to
run elevated Visual Studio.
This has no effect on COM server registering in installed Opne-Shell.
It is related only to local development.
When `Invert Metro icon color` is enabled `Open-Shell` needs to
distinguish full color icons from monochromatic ones.
Color icons are displayed normally. Monochromatic ones are displayed
inverted (original background becomes transparent and foreground will
get Metro accent color).
Metro icon is loaded from Metro app resources (usually PNG image) as
bitmap with premultiplied alpha channel.
This causes monochromatic image to essentially become grayscale (because
RGB values are multiplied with alpha channel value).
Function `DetectGrayscaleImage` is used to distinguish such images.
Unfortunatelly if original image is grayscale (such as new Windows
Terminal icon) it is recognized as monochromatic and thus inverted.
To prevent this we will take into account also alpha channel in
`DetectGrayscaleImage`.
In monochromatic images alpha channel value will be the same as the rest of
channel values.
For color images alpha channel value will be different than other
channel values.
Fixes#364.
Delete confirmation dialog may be (partially) hidden behing start menu.
As a result the dialog may be not accessible because start menu(s) are
displayed as top-most windows.
Thus when executing menu command we will make menu(s) non-topmost. So that
other windows can be drawn on top of menu(s).
Fixes#257
In several cases we don't want menu(s) to close when an action on menu was
done. For example on drag-n-drop or menu item deletion (where confirmation
dialog is shown).
In such situations `s_bPreventClosing` was set to true (and then back to
false when closing was allowed again).
Though original code honored this variable only in certain situations and
typically (at least on Win10) menus were hidden/closed despite of it.
This patch changes the behavior and menus(s) are not closed when
`s_bPreventClosing` is set to true.
Basically now menu(s) stay visible until there is an action that changes
active window.
Following functionality was also removed because it is not needed now:
* CMenuContainer::HideTemp
* COwnerWindow::OnClear
WM_CLEAR was sent to the window only by already removed `HideTemp`
`Open-Shell` needs to adjust itself after OS upgrade. It seems that
`StartMenuHelper` registration is lost after such upgrade:
http://www.classicshell.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8082#p34821
To fix this registration, administrator rights are required (means user
interaction, UAC).
While this is acceptable in consumer environment, it is typically not
desired in business environment where users typically doesn't have
administrator rights.
This patch allows to run `Open-Shell` in silent upgrade mode that will:
* check if OS version changed (otherwise end immediately)
* perform OS upgrade tasks without any user interraction
Such mode can be then used to create scheduled task that will run this
silent upgrade check on every boot with system rights:
`schtasks /Create /RU "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /SC ONSTART /TN "Open-Shell OS updgrade check" /TR "%ProgramFiles%\Open-Shell\StartMenu.exe -upgrade -silent"`
#167
Commit 1a5f62a added possibility to hide Lock/Sleep/Hibernate buttons if
they were disabled in system power settings.
Unfortunately this didn't work for Lock button.
To fix the behavior we have to add lock command to `g_StdOptions` array
and then all the checks introduced in 1a5f62a will apply properly.
#173
* Fix naming inconsistencies
'Menu' vs 'StartMenu'
* Installer: Remove Facebook link
* Installer: Remove PayPal donate remnants
* OpenShellReadme: Remove info about product version
