SoftGlow Updates! oh. And other things too.

SoftGlow received a visual update as well as a tiny functionality change today. The visual update has improved the layout of the application, and it splits the functionality from one simple list to various pages which are dedicated to different types of options or customization. SoftGlow is performing smoother as a result of this, and the ability to hide the notification has also been added.

A new project, with no real working name has been added into the list of potential workings. I look to have it being a persistent launcher which does not get in the way of the user, and allows any application to be launcher from anywhere using the same kind of mechanism which runs Power Manager's overlay. this will allow more useability to switch between open applications, or even launch new instances of applications, even from inside full screen games or high priority applications. A debugging build has already been created as a proof of concept using the same underlying engine as Power Manager, and I will say that the idea is working very smoothly. I look forward to working more on this idea over the coming weeks, however personal vacation and other issues may slow the potential development for a couple of days.
