@Loyd @BHSY Hi Everyone! I am excited to announce 🎤 that 🎉SynQPanel v1.0.2 is now available.🎉 This release focuses on stability fixes and improved gauge handling. Fixed - Font Bold/Italic not applying correctly - Close to Tray and Diagnostics settings not persisting after restart - UI showing internal .sp2 filename instead of the original .spzip name Improved - Additions - Gauge label, font family, size, bold and italic are now correctly imported from AIDA - Gauge label settings can now be fully adjusted inside SynQPanel 📢 Recommended update for all users. Thank you to the AIDA team and community for feedback and logs that helped refine this release. 🙏 The update is available on GitHub here: https://github.com/sursingh-hub/SynQPanel/releases/tag/v1.0.2 Feedback and suggestions are always welcome. 🙏 Thank you again for the support! 🙏

Thank you for testing and sharing feedback!! Currently, $LABEL values can’t be fetched directly via Shared Memory, as only sensor values are exposed. To ensure a smooth and reliable experience, I’ve implemented a safe workaround that fetches these values and converts each $LABEL into its corresponding readable text label. I’ve personally tested this on my system using the following available labels, and they’re working as expected: $CPUMODEL $GPU1MODEL $GPU2MODEL $CHIPSET $MOBOMODEL $OSPRODUCT $DXVER $HOSTNAME $DNSHOSTNAME $LOCALIP $USERNAME Since system configurations can vary, if you’re using or have any additional labels, please feel free to share them-I’ll be more than happy to incorporate and test those as well 😊 Also, do let me know if you notice any issues with the above displays. You’re absolutely right about the imported name showing as a date. That name actually comes from the .sp2 file stored inside the .spzip package. The .spzip file is essentially a container that includes all SensorPanel assets-such as images-along with the .sp2 file, which holds everything from layout and positioning to size and configuration details. The filename is used so changes can be written back to the correct file when you hit Save. That said, I’ll explore whether we can display the spzip name instead, to make this clearer and more intuitive 💡 Thank you for testing and sharing feedback!! 😍 Regarding the font issue, could you please let me know exactly where you’re facing the problem? I wasn’t able to reproduce it on my end-fonts appear to be working fine here. That said, something might still be off, and I’m absolutely here to track it down and fix it for you 🙂 I’m really glad to hear that the right-click actions and the close-to-tray feature are working perfectly and exactly as you expected 🎉 Thank you so much for adding this feature - it’s genuinely useful and a great enhancement! Your observation about $LABEL behavior is spot-on 👍 There are no issues with newly created panels; however, existing panels behave differently at the moment. At present, $LABELS are converted into hard-coded text labels inside SynQPanel. This approach was intentionally chosen as a first step-to verify compatibility across different systems and ensure values are fetched correctly. If this makes sense!! To answer your question honestly: If you switch to a new CPU (or similar hardware change), the $LABEL won’t automatically update right now, since it has already been converted into a static text label. But please don’t worry-I am here and I’ve got your back 😄 I will explore whether $LABELS can be stored as sensors instead, so they dynamically update whenever system hardware changes. That’s the ideal behavior, and I’ll definitely test and validate this for you to make sure it works seamlessly 💪 Let me know if there’s anything else you’d like me to check or improve-I’m always happy to help!

@BHSY @Loyd and Hi Everyone, I am excited to announce 🎤 that 🎉SynQPanel v1.0.1 is now available.🎉 This update fixes shared memory truncation issues, improves diagnostics, adds SensorPanel right-click actions, close-to-tray support (Enable in Settings), and implements AIDA-style $LABEL macro resolution (e.g. $CPUMODEL, $GPU1MODEL). Thank you to the AIDA team and community for feedback and logs that helped refine this release. 🙏 The update is available on GitHub here: https://github.com/sursingh-hub/SynQPanel/releases/tag/v1.0.1 Feedback and suggestions are always welcome. 🙏 Thank you again for the support! 🙏

Hi @Loyd, Thank you for flagging this. You’re absolutely right - during the code update, I accidentally impacted the Replace and Duplicate button logic. My sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused!! 😢 I’ve now reproduced and identified the issue and am already working on the fix. I’ll resolve this on priority and share the updated executable with you very shortly. Thank you for your patience and understanding! I really appreciate that you found this at an early stage 🙏🫡 Regarding Default Font Behavior: Let me check what we can safely include !!

Hi @Loyd, Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. We’re really glad to hear you’re enjoying SynQPanel and exploring its features - insights like yours help us refine both usability and workflow. We completely understand the importance of minimizing repetitive steps when designing panels, and your observations are very valid. Default Font behavior In SynQ Gallery, once you select the panel you’re working on, the panel properties shown below allow you to set a Default Font Family and Default Font Size. These serve as global defaults for that specific panel. To help us improve this further, could you please clarify your expectation here? Would you prefer these defaults to automatically follow the last-used style, or should this behavior be more explicitly controlled by the user? Duplicating gauges / copy-paste Could you also let us know how you’re duplicating gauges? In SynQ Manager, just above the trash/delete icon, there is a “Duplicate selected item” option. We’ve tested this and confirmed that it properly clones the selected sensor/gauge. After duplicating, you can replace the sensor using the orange “Replace Selected Sensor” button. If this button appears disabled, please ensure: The cloned gauge is selected on the right, and The desired sensor is selected from the AIDA sensor list on the left. Once both are selected, the replacement should work as expected. If your experience differs, please let us know - we’ll be happy to investigate further. Side note: We’ve also fixed the issue you reported where system shortcuts in labels appeared as placeholders (e.g., $CPUModel, $GPU1Model). Thank you @BHSY for the following enhancements: - We have also added Right Click on Sensorpanels to show the ContextMenu - Close to Tray wen X button is pressed These fixes will be included in the next build. Thank you again for your feedback and encouragement. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to your thoughts.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to try SynQPanel - it truly means a lot, especially coming from the AIDA64 Family/Team. 🙏 You’re absolutely right about the onboarding experience. SynQPanel is still growing, and while the core functionality is there, the workflow for creating and organizing panels needs clearer guidance. A step-by-step video tutorial and improved documentation are definitely next on my roadmap. I also want to sincerely thank a few people who’ve supported me throughout this journey: @Surjeet has been with me from day one - my Mentor, My coding partner - always encouraging me, brainstorming ideas, and helping me push through challenges. ❤️ @BHSY for testing and detailed logs were invaluable in improving shared memory handling. He shared a few panels with me for testing and those were mind blowing. 💓 @Loyd for the first one to test and sharing feedback to include a few updates we will see in the next build ❤️ And of course, the community’s feedback - including yours 😍 - keeps me motivated and moving forward. This project means a lot to me, and I’m genuinely grateful for the support and encouragement. I’m excited to keep improving SynQPanel together and continue enhancing the AIDA64 user's experience. SynQPanel is still early, but the momentum and community support are incredibly motivating. I’m looking forward to refining the experience and continuing to build something useful for the AIDA64 users. 🙏 Thank you again for the support and trust. 🙏

Wow, your panels and ideas are really OUT OF THE WORLD!! 🎉 You are the one to show the power of SynQPanel!! LOVE IT!!!! 😍 I really want such kind of encouragement to keep this project enhancing further and further. Thank you!!!!

Thank you for sharing the details. We have added this to known issues and will try to fix in the next build!

@Loyd: Thank you so much for sharing the details! I really appreciate it ! 🙏 1. Yes, the main image issue is resolved and we found that when any image is set as Background was skipped in the code. This happened as we had the code to skip "Preview" first image. Now its fixed and will be shipped in the next build 2. If you dont mind, please share the screenshot where the system shortcut is not loaded for labels. We will try to fix that too! Really appreciate your interest and support in this matter! 🙏 You guys are amazing 😍 as you all are helping me a lot to diagnose and make this application better! ❤️ Now, I dont feel alone here!! ❤️

Thank you so much for taking the time to test SynQPanel - I really appreciate it 🙏 Great to hear that the alignment and color chart worked well for you. To keep things organized, I’ve added detailed guidance in the main SynQPanel launch thread, which we’ll use to track issues, fixes, and usage notes going forward. The “Share your sensorpanel” forum should stay focused on panel designs and creator discussions 👍 About the images not loading That’s very useful feedback. Could you please let me know (or share an example) where some image items didn’t load? If you can mention: panel format (.sensorpanel, .spzip, .sqx) image type (static / GIF / web image) and whether they were existing items or newly added I’ll try to reproduce it and address it in the next update. About new items appearing at the bottom Yes - currently, when working with .sensorpanel or .spzip formats, newly added items are appended to the bottom of the list. This is a known limitation and is listed in the Known Issues section on the main thread. About saving changes Saving behavior is explained step-by-step in the main SynQPanel post, but in short: Clicking Save in SynQ Manager writes changes back to the original panel Export options are available for .spzip and .sqx More details are posted in the main thread - please feel free to ask if anything is unclear. Thank you again for testing and sharing feedback!

=============== Instructions: We will keep on updating this =========== 💾 Saving & Exporting Panels Currently supported formats: .sensorpanel .spzip .sqx Saving changes In SynQ Manager, clicking Save writes all changes back to the original imported file Exporting panels Open SynQ Gallery from the left pane Select the panel you want to export Use Export SPZIP or Export SQX Notes on animations GIFs, animations, and advanced visuals are only supported in .sqx If you add animations, export the panel as .sqx for full compatibility +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Converting MB to GB or other conversions example:

=========This Section is reserved for Known Issues============ Known Issues (Public Preview) .rslcd panels are partially supported Some gauges may not render correctly Saving .rslcd panels is not supported at this time When adding new items to .sensorpanel or .spzip panels, new items are currently added to the bottom of the panel list Some .spzip or .sensorpanel files generated by newer AIDA64 versions or having MANY images may fail to import due to format differences. This will be addressed in upcoming updates [FIXED] System short cut in labels are not loaded and appear as $CPUModel, $GPU1Model These limitations are known and will be improved in future updates. =========FIXES============ Update – Fixed, will be available in the upcoming build v1.0.1 Two issues identified during testing have now been resolved: • Background images marked as “Set as background” in AIDA64 panels were not being detected correctly. SynQPanel now respects the BGIMG flag exactly as defined by AIDA64. • Image-based hour hands using the Time (STIME) sensor (including 360 / 720 image clocks) were not rendering correctly when the sensor returned formatted time values. SynQPanel now properly interprets STIME for image-state gauges. Thank you to everyone who tested and reported these - this helped improve compatibility with advanced AIDA64 panels. • Enhanced Shared Memory Reading SynQPanel no longer imposes any shared memory size limits. It dynamically maps and parses the full memory region provided by AIDA64, eliminating XML truncation and sensor-list instability.

As promised, we are live now:
