Installer and Automatic Start/Restart #21

Open aaronmmarks opened 2 years ago

aaronmmarks commented 2 years ago

@ledoge Have you considered creating an installer/uninstaller with an option in dwm_lut to automatically start with Windows and then also automatically restart it when the power state has changed?

I've accomplished the automatic start and restart on power state change here with a scheduled task: https://hub.displaycal.net/forums/topic/i-made-a-tool-for-applying-3d-luts-to-the-windows-desktop/page/10/#post-34665

I think this would make the tool even more accessible in a professional environment.

Automatic restarting should be unnecessary if I just make the GUI listen for changes in the monitor setup, and add an option to re-apply automatically when that happens. Not sure how I feel about creating an installer, I guess it would be useful for some people, but I'd like to focus on other things for now.

Agreed on both.

Listening for monitor changes would be ideal.

An installer is definitely a nice-to-have rather than a requirement, but it could be a nice cherry on top once the project starts feeling feature complete to you.
