Switch between Lights has changed #307

Closed MateusBMP closed 1 year ago

MateusBMP commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug Before, in some version, the dimming button on the keyboard switch between the max light, the dim light and the lights off. Now, only switch between dim and light off. I don't know if it is necessarily a bug.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open the Settings view into AlienFX Control
  2. Switch between light powers with fn + F7

Expected behavior Switch between three lights options is expected.

System:

Additional context The command in this keyboard is fn + F7. The last effect, looking for Settings screen is:

  1. "Turn on lights" disabled,
  2. "Turn on lights" enabled and "Dim lights to" disabled
  3. "Turn on lights" enabled and "Dim lights to" enabled

Definitely a bug, it should work like before. I modify this in last release, seems like some bug comes. Ok, let me check and fix.

"Turn on lights" disabled, "Turn on lights" enabled and "Dim lights to" disabled "Turn on lights" enabled and "Dim lights to" enabled

So what operation above works incorrectly? Also, what do you have into "Keep power..."/"Dim power..."?

UPD: Yes, i confirm. AlienFX button (Fn+F12 on my gear) work incorrectly.

Here are the fix: alienfx-gui.zip

JFYI: Device dimming can be controlled 3 ways:

In case of lights dimmed by 2 and 3 point, it will switch between off/dimmed only, blocking full brightness. It's not a bug.

Now it's right!

Now I understand, thank you for the explanation ;)
