A modern replacement for existing flyouts in Windows

Default one

This application will replace the default audio/airplane/brightness flyouts found in Windows shown when the volume or brightness changes or when airplane mode key is pressed.

This project is based on ADeltaX/AudioFlyout. I have implemented airplane mode and brightness (incomplete) flyout as an addition. I have also added a flyout for lock keys (caps lock, scroll lock & num lock).

Note : The native flyout is not permanently closed but will be hidden when this flyout is shown Thus, only audio/airplane-mode flyouts will replace the old one. Brightness flyout is incomplete and may not work on all devices.

Quick guide

1. Go to the latest releases' page

3. Extract it to a folder and run ModernFlyouts.exe.

Features (new ones compared to ADeltaX/AudioFlyout.)

• Follows system Light/Dark theme (the theme that taskbar has and not App Theme).
• SMTC has new controls such as Shuffle, Repeat, Stop and Timeline Info
• AirplaneMode-flyout Module.
• LockKeys-flyout Module.
• Note : Brightness flyout is not yet fully implemented and may not work on all devices.
• Each Module can be disabled separately.
• Can Choose either Windows Default Flyout, ModernFlyouts or None.
• Flyout's TopBar can be hidden.
• Flyout is Draggable
• Flyout can aligned to default position
• Slide Animation when hide & showing
• And finally this application works in all versions of Windows 10 🎉🎉🎉 (and also tested on Windows 8) (fallback method is added for SMTC and not restricted to Windows 10 17763+)
• Targets both .NET 4.6.2 & .NET Core 3.1

Disadvantages compared to ADeltaX/AudioFlyout.

• Flyout can't be shown in LockScreen and above TaskManager, since UIAccess is not taken into account from the beginning.
• No Acrylic backdrop (will cost animation so ...)

IMPORTANT NOTE :

This project is made possible due to the work of ADeltaX. I could have improved the original project but the project is called AUDIOFlyout and adding airplane-mode/brightness flyouts wouldn't be a good idea, also the project has no recent activity. He's developing a AudioFlyoutv2 with a refreshed UI. So, I had to make my own with the said additional features.

This project depends on :

• NAudio
• ModernWpf (That's how I got the name ModernFlyout)
• Hardcodet.NotifyIcon.Wpf
