    What is ModernFlyouts?

    This application aims to provide a Fluent Design System based replacement for the old, built-in, Metro Design based Audio/Airplane mode/Brightness flyouts present in Windows (which haven't been updated since Windows 8 LOL) which are shown while pressing the media or volume keys or even the brightness keys (may be absent on Desktop PCs) or when airplane/flight mode is toggled.

    Features
    • Fluent UI (similar to Windows 10X).
    • Supports Light, Dark & High contrast themes.
    • Media session controls have additional options such as Shuffle, Repeat, Stop and Timeline Info.
    • Redesigned audio and brightness flyouts along with additional flyouts for Airplane mode, Lock keys and Insert/Overtype.
    • Each module can be disabled individually.
    • Flyout's TopBar can be pinned, unpinned or hidden.
    • Flyout is Draggable and autosaves the position. It also has feature for default position. (Check out the settings)
    • Smooth Animations & Transitions.
    • Opacity of the background of flyouts can be changed.
    • Timeout of flyouts can be changed.

    Note: The built-in flyout will not be permanently affected. It will be hidden temporarily while this application is running. So, no reason to fear breaking your system. For more information on how to recover the original flyouts, check out this How To page.

    Users are provided the freedom to choose between the Windows built-in flyouts or modern flyouts from ModernFlyouts or neither of them.

    It is impossible to have a flyout for the keyboard backlight brightness or for the function (Fn) key because they are not passed as keys but as hardware signals (which the OEMs decide). Any OS can receive those signals if they have the required driver.

    This project has its roots in AudioFlyout by @ADeltaX with additional implementations for "Airplane mode", "Brightness" and "LockKeys" (includes Insert key, Caps, Num & Scroll lock keys) flyouts. This project stands as a complete replacement for the built-in one.
