IDEA: OnScreen Display for Mute Status

<< < (4/14) > >>

app103 & lanux128,
You can set some tray icons to always be shown (never autohidden). Right click Start > Taskbar tab > customize.. . Alternatively, Right click Start > Taskbar tab > untick Hide inactive icons for a more general solution.
But I agree with you that this neat script makes it much easier to see when mute is on.

I have all my icons showing...but I don't have my taskbar itself showing (that is what I have on autohide).

app103,
Ok I missed that earlier but I see now that's what you wrote.  :-[

lanux128,
a suggestion: the scripts flickers briefly due to the repeated "gui, destroy" & "gui, show". Add these lines (in red) to only destroy+rebuild the mute OSD text only if its not already present.

------------------
If CheckMute = On
If osd_is_on != 1
  {
  osd_is_on = 1
  Gui, Destroy ;
  Gui, Color, EEAA99
  Gui +AlwaysOnTop +ToolWindow -Caption +Lastfound
  WinSet, TransColor, EEAA99 105  ;105 - level of translucency (range: 0-255)
  Gui, Font, s30 Bold cYellow, Tahoma
  Gui, Add, Text,x3 y3 w175 h45 Center c000000 BackgroundTrans, Mute %CheckMute%
  Gui, Add,Text,x0 y0 w175 h45 Center cFFD300 BackgroundTrans, Mute %CheckMute%
  Gui,Show, NoActivate x70 y600 w175 h45 ; some crude positioning co-ordinates
  IfExist, %A_WinDir%\System32\sndvol32.exe
    Menu, tray, Icon, %A_WinDir%\System32\sndvol32.exe, 4 ; Mute icon
  Sleep 3000
  }
If CheckMute = Off
  {
  osd_is_on =
------------------
(is there some way to combine code block format with text coloring in forum posts?)

lanux128:
sorry hadn't noticed the flicker but thanks for the idea, Nod5.. :Thmbsup: i'll update the script soon. :)

lanux128:
ok, done.. :Thmbsup: hopefully no more ugly flickering.. :)
