Launch Manager Remix

Hey guys!
Do you how simple the Launch Manager is? I created a better looking version - More info >> http://aspireoneexperience.blogspot.com ... remix.html

Let me know what you think...

 

Are all settings "spiced-up" or only volume control??

 

Here's a list of spiced up things:
*Quick-open System Properties
*Quick-open Power Management
*Touch-pad on/off
*Mute/Unmute
*Volume
*Wireless on/off

 

Cool. I'll give it a go today then and will share my opinion

 

So.. has anyone tried it yet?

 

Yeah, it's pretty cool. I really like the volume one, and the little pic of the One that comes up when you Fn+F2. You should do them custom, a version for each color, though mine was blue so it matched.

All in all, an awesome contribution!

 

Tested. Works OK. Volume control picture is pretty

 

Thanks for the reviews! Might do another version when I'll have more time.

 

While we're talking Launch Manager, anyone know how to get rid of the System Tray icon once the original application has been installed and is running? If you need to tweak it, it can always be done through a normal desktop shortcut.

 

Message to GvidoR: great app, nice improvement on the original. Just one problem I'm having, wonder if anyone else replicates it and if there's a fix? Using the Fn-F5 hotkey combination to switch between internal and external monitors, the display box freezes onscreen and I can't get rid of it, on top of anything else running or loaded subsequently, except by rebooting. All the other display boxes are fine, just this one is a problem. Any ideas?

Thanks again for a great app!

 

Hi,
Thanks! Good to hear you're enjoying my app.
I couldn't figure out what's the problem myself. I'll try and do an improvement when my parts for my Desktop PC arrive that's going to use Windows because now I have Linux on my Aspire One. You can right click the Launch Manager icon and choose exit, then press Fn+F5 and then open it again.

 

I have had the same problem. Fn-F5 makes the monitor selection OSD freeze on screen. Further Fn-F5 presses will change the selector, but the display stays on top and never goes away. Also, on mine, it actually does not even change the output to the external monitor!

I'm hoping GvidoR can figure this one out. Of all the Launch Manager variants, this is my favorite!

p.s. maybe this only affects people named Terrence?
