Hi @krlvm, Nice project by the way, very useful. I'm one of the developers of ModernFlyouts, this is a functionality we have been looking into adding for a while, when one of our users suggested a collaboration with your project

I just thought I would enquire whether you would be interested in a collaboration / project merge of some sort?

Hello,

I used ModernFlyouts and developed this project half a year ago when I needed a button on the taskbar that I could double-click to pause or resume playing media, and then added a user interface for it that tried to resemble standard Windows flyouts.

It would be great to incorporate it into ModernFlyouts, although I don't have much experience with C# (mostly Java) and Windows UI development. A significant obstacle may be the code that I wrote quickly and dirty in an effort to complete development as soon as possible.

At the moment, this project has several problems: sometimes strange work and crashes after waking up the PC from sleep mode or changing the user and glitchy animation on Windows 10 from version 19H1 to the release of Windows 11, associated with a bug of an undocumented API used to get the acrylic effect.

I would be glad if it would be possible to solve these problems and merge the projects.

Hi @krlvm, apologies for the delayed response I've been quite busy recently. ModernFlyouts is built in C# and XAML - winUI 2 Xaml islands hosted in wpf.

Dou have a discord account to discuss this further?
