Improved system tray balloon tooltips

Posted on 01:14 by Unknown
I've finished and extended the new system tray balloon tooltips in the as yet unreleased v3.99.20 beta. You'll see merged notifications, such as:







I've also added notifications for every type of event possible, and they are broadcast better (the new inter-process communication framework). Merging similar events that occur about the same time allows for much clearer representation of what is going on, and gives the user a chance to read them during 'rapid fire' ;). Even better, this is offloaded to another worker thread. Process Lasso is growing in threads every day it seems, lol. Fortunately, I've also improved the efficiency of the thread synchronization objects - so the overhead is lower than ever before.

I'm going to add more things to v3.99.20 before release, and do some testing -- but it is coming. After this, there will only be a couple more additions to make, then we'll just need to finish testing.
