Simplify theme change notification logic in `LightSwitchService.cpp` by consolidating redundant checks and improving error handling. Remove the `applyMonitorSettings` setting and associated logic from `LightSwitchSettings`.
Introduce `PowerDisplayProfilesHelper` to centralize profile management, ensuring thread safety and simplifying file operations. Update UI in `LightSwitchPage.xaml` to replace `ApplyMonitorSettings` with separate dark and light mode profile settings, adding navigation to PowerDisplay settings.

Update localization strings for new UI elements. Perform general code cleanup, including null safety annotations, improved logging, and removal of legacy code.
Simplified profile management by removing the concept of "Custom profiles" and "current profile" tracking. Profiles are now treated as templates for quick application of monitor settings, rather than persistent states.
Key changes include:
- Replaced `ObservableCollection<string>` with `ObservableCollection<PowerDisplayProfile>` to manage profile objects directly.
- Removed redundant properties and methods related to "selected" and "current" profiles.
- Refactored methods for creating, updating, and deleting profiles to operate on `PowerDisplayProfile` objects.
- Updated `PowerDisplayViewModel` and `ProfileManager` to streamline profile loading, saving, and application logic.
- Updated the UI to replace the profile dropdown with buttons for quick application, along with context menu options for managing profiles.
- Improved logging and error handling for profile operations.
- Updated resource strings and removed references to "Custom profiles" and "current profile."
These changes simplify the codebase, improve maintainability, and align the application with the new design philosophy of treating profiles as templates.
Introduced a comprehensive profile management system for PowerDisplay, enabling users to create, edit, delete, and apply predefined monitor settings. Key changes include:
- Added `ProfileManager` for handling profile storage and retrieval.
- Introduced `PowerDisplayProfile`, `PowerDisplayProfiles`, and related data models for profile representation.
- Enhanced `MainViewModel` and `MonitorViewModel` to support profile application and parameter change detection.
- Created `ProfileEditorDialog` for editing and creating profiles via the UI.
- Updated `PowerDisplayViewModel` to manage profiles, including commands for adding, deleting, renaming, and saving profiles.
- Added new events (`ApplyProfileEvent`) and constants for profile application.
- Updated `PowerDisplayPage` UI to include a "Profiles" section for managing profiles.
- Added serialization support for profile-related classes.
- Updated `dllmain.cpp` and `App.xaml.cs` to handle profile-related events.
These changes improve user experience by allowing quick switching between tailored monitor configurations.
Introduced `ColorTemperatureOperation` class to manage pending color temperature changes. Updated `MainViewModel` to process operations for specific monitors, improving efficiency and separation of concerns.
Added `PendingColorTemperatureOperation` property to `PowerDisplayProperties` for tracking operations. Enhanced IPC messaging with `MonitorId` and `ColorTemperature` in `PowerDisplayActionMessage`.
Refactored `PowerDisplayViewModel` and `PowerDisplayPage` to directly apply color temperature to specified monitors. Improved logging for better traceability.
Enhanced exception handling in RelayCommand to improve robustness.
Standardized slider debounce delays using a new constant
`SliderDebounceDelayMs`. Improved resource management in
SimpleDebouncer with proper disposal of CancellationTokenSource
and added support for synchronous actions. Refactored event
handling in App.xaml.cs for clarity and consistency. Removed
redundant logging in MonitorStateManager and MainViewModel to
reduce verbosity. Updated namespaces and dependencies for better
organization. General code cleanup to improve readability and
maintainability.
Enhanced monitor initialization with parallelism in `MonitorManager.cs` for better performance. Added cancellation support to `NativeEventWaiter.cs` with `CancellationToken` and timeout handling. Introduced thread safety in `PhysicalMonitorHandleManager.cs` using locks to prevent race conditions.
Updated `PowerDisplayViewModel.cs` to include proper resource cleanup with `CancellationTokenSource` and improved memory management. Added necessary namespaces for threading and asynchronous operations. General code improvements for readability, maintainability, and reliability.
Enhanced PowerDisplay with support for applying color temperature settings.
- Added `APPLY_COLOR_TEMPERATURE_POWER_DISPLAY_EVENT` and event handling logic.
- Introduced `ApplyColorTemperatureFromSettings` in `MainViewModel` for explicit hardware updates.
- Refactored `MonitorInfo` to dynamically compute and cache color temperature presets.
- Updated `ReloadMonitorsFromSettings` to preserve object references and improve UI responsiveness.
- Simplified UI bindings and removed redundant properties like `MonitorType`.
- Improved event handling in `dllmain.cpp` for the new color temperature action.
- Enhanced logging for better debugging and traceability.
- Updated JSON serialization context to include new types for color temperature.
- Removed unused code and improved documentation for maintainability.
Removed reliance on static `MonitorType` enumeration, replacing it with dynamic `CommunicationMethod` for better flexibility. Updated `IMonitorController` and `MonitorManager` to dynamically determine monitor control capabilities.
Refactored `Monitor` model to streamline properties and improve color temperature handling. Enhanced `MonitorViewModel` with unified methods for brightness, contrast, volume, and color temperature updates, improving UI responsiveness and hardware synchronization.
Improved settings handling by adding support for hidden monitors, preserving user preferences, and separating UI configuration from hardware parameter updates. Updated the PowerDisplay Settings UI with warnings, confirmation dialogs, and better VCP capabilities formatting.
Removed legacy IPC code in favor of event-driven settings updates. Conducted general code cleanup, improving logging, error handling, and documentation for maintainability.
Transitioned color temperature handling from Kelvin-based values to VCP code `0x14` (Select Color Preset). Removed legacy Kelvin-to-VCP conversion logic and deprecated unused VCP codes. Updated `Monitor` and `MonitorViewModel` to reflect this change, making `ColorTemperature` read-only in the flyout UI and configurable via the Settings UI.
Enhanced monitor capabilities detection by relying on reported VCP codes instead of trial-and-error probing. Introduced `CapabilitiesStatus` to indicate feature availability and dynamically populated color temperature presets from VCP code `0x14`.
Streamlined the UI by replacing the color temperature slider with a ComboBox in the Settings UI. Added tooltips, warnings for unavailable capabilities, and improved logging for brightness and color temperature operations.
Removed obsolete code, simplified feature detection logic, and improved code documentation. Fixed issues with unsupported VCP values and ensured consistent ordering of color presets.
Refactored IPC communication by introducing a `NamedPipeProcessor` utility for unidirectional named pipe handling, replacing the old bidirectional implementation. Simplified application lifecycle management by removing mutex usage and relying on `AppInstance` for single-instance enforcement.
Replaced IPC-based monitor updates with file-based updates, saving monitor data to `settings.json` for the Settings UI. Added an `ActivationShortcut` property to PowerDisplay settings and updated the settings page UI to support shortcut configuration.
Simplified named pipe creation in `PowerDisplayProcessManager` by removing bidirectional pipe logic and focusing on unidirectional communication. Improved `MainWindow` initialization with an `EnsureInitializedAsync` method.
Updated localization resources and integrated PowerDisplay into the launcher menu. Removed redundant code, improved logging, and streamlined resource cleanup for better maintainability.
