Items can be pinned to directories that require administative privileges
(such as Open-Shell's default installation directory), so long as users
take ownership of the pinned folder. Also adds a command to Open-Shell's
context menu that opens the current pinned folder.
Adds general support for directory-based settings by creating a new
setting type called TYPE_DIRECTORY which uses a new bool added to
BrowseLinkHelper, called bFoldersOnly. START_MENU_PINNED_ROOT
has been removed, and all instances of both it and BrowseLinkHelper
have been adjusted accordingly. To create your own directory-based
settings, use CSetting::TYPE_DIRECTORY. Empty directory paths are
reset to their default value as they can cause unexpected behavior.
Adds a new function called GetFakeFolder which attempts to find and get
the target.lnk file from a fake folder (what Open-Shell uses to pin
folders). If detected, InvokeCommand is swapped for a ShellExecute call
to the target shortcut. Fixes#555, #653, and by extension, #691.
Expands the "display as a list of drives" option from This PC to work on
almost any item in the Windows 7 style. Incompatible items have a new
setting called ITEM_NODRIVES which blocks the option from appearing.
This PC still uses the original "list of drives" text, while other items
use "list of links" instead. Sorting has been updated to account for
this option by adding a property called bFolderLink which marks any
folder, even if it is not explicitly expandable.
Hides the item in both start menu styles and adjusts search height to
ensure the empty space is used. Partially fixes#660, but currently
does not honor group policy settings.
If set, intercepts the search hint's DrawText function and swaps out the
default text for user-defined text. Leaving the text blank results in an
empty search box.
Intercepts *most* instances of FLAG_DEFAULT getting set, including
when XML files are loaded and when Open-Shell starts, adding
if-statements to those spots to check if a new value is actually
different from the setting's default value. Ensures more consistency
behind the scenes and gets rid of inaccurate bold highlights.
Opens pinned items on both sides of the start menu in just one click,
while preserving hover functionality. Ignores the All Programs button
for now as the All Programs folder is rarely accessed and this option
can obstruct its use, especially for the inline menu style. Fixes#692.
When using skin with a different second column icon size, all of the
icons in it would become blank.
Because m_bTwoColumns is set after AddStandardItems, it is still false
in the column break check. As a workaround, use the value it's assigned
later in InitWindowInternal instead.
FixOpen-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu#980
This will accurately represent when these changes are able to take effect. Currently, the settings don't make any immediate changes or are broken when applied, and this should fix that.
Fixes#602.
(Modern) Settings are more and more important in Windows 10,
so it makes sense to show them above Control Panel.
This changes only defaults, users will be still able to order start menu
items as they like.
Fixes#23.
`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.
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.
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.
