8.4.0 (Profile action)
Important! If you are using tools for the first time, please read Beginner's guide and AlienFX-GUI readme to configure out its concept and operation principle.
Fan-SDK_V1.zip have binaries built against older fan control version, use it only in case you know what you're doing (or have Aurora R7), check readme file inside archive first to configure out how to make it working!
Changes into this release:
AlienFX-GUI:
- New: It's now possible to run app/script/etc. at profile change:
- Switch to "Profiles" tab and set the action name by type it or choose it using "Set" button
- Check "run action"
- Action will be triggered at the every profile switch
- You can use application, script, document or shell command as an action.
- This option is incompatible (and will be disabled) if "Only then active" selected - running action change active window, so it comes to endless loop in this case.
- Power mode check after resume from sleep added - profile will be re-selected in case power mode changed during sleep
- Tooltip generation changed to prevent possible exception.
- Profile UI optimized both visual (for better understanding) and logical (for performance).
- Bug fixed: Some profile settings (f.e. device effect) do not apply at app start/resume from sleep.
