Sulphy Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Looks good so far! You should check out DesktopInfo : http://www.glenn.delahoy.com/software/ The WMI triggers are rather extensive, and once setup, its nifty!!!! I use it on my servers / desktop.. its live, and doesnt interfere with your backgrounds like BGInfo! You might get some of the WMI triggers you are looking for in the ini for the app. Even on an exchange server, this app uses 3Mb ram, and havent seen it go above 0.3% CPU use. Just thought i would share Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BinaryData Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Looking good so far. Once it is complete, you should make a wicked sleek futuristic skin for it. Also, one thing you should incorporate is status alerts. I work in a Data Center, some of the tools we have are sensors that alert the Site Ops Techs about hardware that changes, or if smoke is detected. If you can incorporate heat sensors, that would be sweet. Setting temps from say 32c to 60c are operational standards (Not in the DC), but for a home computer. Most smartphones can receive text messages via email. My verizon is ***$$$****@vzwtxt.com (it changes occasionally), thus I can send an email to that, and it'll go to my cell. Just a thought, nothing major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goretsky Supervisor Posted April 13, 2015 Supervisor Share Posted April 13, 2015 Hello, For the network adapter, it might be useful to know current IP, netmask and DNS servers(s), plus speed and duplex and MAC address.

Haggis Veteran Posted April 14, 2015 Author Veteran Share Posted April 14, 2015 I added in network stuff last night, just trying to work out the best way to display it goretsky 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_BeanZ_ Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Might be worth adding a bit of padding above the CPU utilisation and/or adjusting the labels - it currently looks like the bar is showing how many bits you're using On a related note - 'Architecture' might be a better choice of label rather than 'Bits' goretsky 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeM97 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Even if I'm definitedly a hardworker in english learning [ I do it all the time, actually getting new discussions here ] , maybe some translations for french , spanish , portuguese , chinese and [ if you want , of course ] for romanian would be great . goretsky 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulrian Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I think possibly look into more visually pleasing ways of displaying the information to the user to make it different. Do you have any experience with WPF at all? WinForms looks pretty outdated nowadays and is end of life so not much point in spending time keeping up to speed with it. You might want to look into something like WPF to make it look more 'modern'. Take the music app Dopamine created by another user on here as an example (also created in WPF with VB). That being said it depends on if you want to learn an entirely new toolset or not as it does require more time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
