  • Change: Added a new scripting function to show tray/toast messages

I just tested it and it indeed allows to show a custom message :) ]]> RE: Change tooltip of a script function, is it possible? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#7 Mon, 08 Feb 2016 19:49:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#7 DisplayFusion Thanks, I'll look into it :) ]]> RE: Change tooltip of a script function, is it possible? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#6 Mon, 08 Feb 2016 19:48:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#6 DisplayFusion The scripting function to do that would be:

Code
Copy
Select All

BFS.DisplayFusion.RunFunction("Function Name");

Which function should I use to run another saved function from within a function? ]]> RE: Change tooltip of a script function, is it possible? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#4 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 20:31:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#4 DisplayFusion Oh! That gave me an idea. If you create three separate functions, then create a fourth script to load the audio device using one of those functions, you should get a notification for the "loader" script, as well as the specific script that switches to the specified audio device. ]]> RE: Change tooltip of a script function, is it possible? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#3 Thu, 04 Feb 2016 20:44:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#3 DisplayFusion I already gave that a try but I don't really want to press the OK button each time I switch audio device. I switch frequently and it would start getting annoying very soon unfortunately ::)

Maybe you can add it to your todo list for the future? 8)

I guess I can create 3 different macros as a work-around and name each with the audio device name, that will do for now. Having the same shortcut cycle through them would be better but I can live with 3 for now :) ]]> RE: Change tooltip of a script function, is it possible? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#2 Thu, 04 Feb 2016 19:49:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d#2 DisplayFusion There isn't, unfortunately. You could use BFS.Dialog.ShowMessageInfo to show a dialog box with the name of the audio device as a workaround though. ]]> Change tooltip of a script function, is it possible? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d Wed, 03 Feb 2016 18:18:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/change-tooltip-of-a-script-function-is-it-possible/?ID=820dc45a-8e20-4aa8-a2e3-d1b186ea804d DisplayFusion As per title, is it possible to customize the text in the tooltip that appears on the DF icon when a function is used?

Currently I am using the application "Audio Switcher" to switch between my main speakers, a cabled headset and a wifi headset. The application has a nice feature that shows the audio playback device icon as tray icon so I know which device is currently active.

Now I have decided to clean up my traybar which contains way too many icons and using a custom DF function to switch audio device would help cut down this one I mentioned above. The problem is that when I run the function with the assigned shortcut the tooltip on the DF tray icon simply says the script being run. Is there any way we can manipulate the message that appears?

For example I would like it to say: "Switched to audio device: XXX" where XXX is the chosen audio device. I have had a look around at all the functions but I haven't seen any that would help me. Did I miss something or there is no way to do that right now? ]]>
