⚙️ Framework Hub - Development Update (January 8, 2025) 🔧

Hello everyone!

Today was focused on fixing several issues to improve the stability and user experience of Framework Control Center. Here's what I've accomplished:

Power Plan Configuration

• Fixed some parameter values in power plan configurations that were causing errors in the log

Bugfixes for setting windows and new features

• Completely redesigned the startup implementation to use Windows Task Scheduler

• Added detailed logging to track task creation and modification

• Fixed task configuration to ensure reliable startup with Windows

• Added error handling and verification steps for task creation/deletion

• Added a option for the user to choose what profile the application need to start with.
  ( HowlVenger request 😁) 

• Added a option to choose the keyboard shortcut between F1 & F12
  (Jay Jay, you can now customise which key you want 👌)

• Fixed the Auto mode refreshing with the GUI Refresh rate applied in settings
  ( Thanks to HowlVenger for the bugtracking 🪛 )
  
  

UI Improvements

• Increased the Settings window size to 800x700 pixels for better readability

• Fixed window scaling and layout issues

• Fixed the iGPU error in the GUI where it would show 0% when the load was <1%

Logging System

• Enhanced logging system to provide more detailed information

• Added comprehensive logging for startup task operations

• Improved error reporting with full stack traces and inner exception details

• Added logging for settings changes and task scheduler operations
  

Next Steps 🚀

I'm continuing to monitor these changes and I'll post the update for you asap. ❤️
My focus remains on bugfixes, stability and user experience at the moment, I'll try to add a high contrast mode and a minimize button too.

Thank you for your continued support!
