Planned Feature: Cycle Through Target Processes

[radj307]

Target Selection Hotkeys

This should allow cycling the current target audio session using hotkeys, allowing the user to perform common interactions with the application using only the keyboard.

Process Container Overhaul:

• Process List
  • Predictability of the order of processes is important.
    • Do not allow removal of the current selection to preserve positioning.
    • Allow configurable sorting, but prioritize implementation first.
  • Maintain an iterator pointing to the currently selected process.
    • Increment
      • Used when the Next Target hotkey is pressed.
    • Decrement
      • Used when the Previous Target hotkey is pressed.
    • Set Position
      • Used when loading the program.
    • Get Position
      • Used by almost everything

New Settings:

All of the below settings will only be checked if at least one of the target selection hotkeys is enabled.

• TargetNotificationEnabled
  • Type: bool
  • Default: true
• TargetNotificationTimeout
  • Type: uint
  • Default: 1000
• ListEnabled
  • Type: bool
  • Default: true
• ListTimeout
  • Type: uint
  • Default: 4000

New Hotkeys:

• Next Target
  • Self-explanatory.
• Previous Target
  • Self-explanatory.
• Show Target List
  • Triggers the target selection notification.
    • Displays the whole target list.
    • Displays the current target with a highlight.
    • Next Target & Previous Target live-update the selection indicator.

Order of Operations

Occurs each time a target selection hotkey is pressed.

1. Reload the list of audio sessions & update the process list, preserving as much positioning as possible.
2. Increment/decrement the process indexer if applicable.
3. If Show Target List was pressed, show the target list window, otherwise show the toast notification if enabled.

Pressing any of the application-specific hotkeys will now affect the newly selected audio session.

Target Process Dropdown:

This is the pre-existing method of notifying the user, but it isn't suitable as an indicator due to the fact that the main window is usually hidden.

Toast Notification:

• Configurable on-screen toast notification that shows the newly selected process for x milliseconds.

List Window

• Shows all currently registered audio sessions (applications) in a list
