Nexus 3.0.8 - Cloud Profile Sync, Process List widget, Light dimming and Performance improvements
Another day, another set of goodies:
1. Cloud Profile Sync
Cloud Profiles let you save your entire profile to the cloud. This includes your lighting presets, your cooling presets, your preferences, your theming, your y70, q-series, stream deck, device panel personalizations, almost everything.
You need to create a Nexus account in order to save your profile. If you have more than one PC, you can use the same account on multiple computers at the same time, cross-platform.
You can Import a profile from another computer logged in with the same account, and carry over your personalizations from there.
This is useful if you want to nuke your install, if you're setting up a new PC, or if you are moving from Windows to Linux and want to bring all your personalizations with you.
Profiles don't sync to the cloud by default. For now, it's a manual "back up now" action, but it might be a default/optional automated in the future.
2. Process List widget
This is a favorite of mine. The screenshot doesn't do it justice. If you have a Y70, try it in immersive view, you'll see why it's good. Don't forget to swipe right while in immersive view!
This is also fully compatible with mobile pair remote sessions, including the immersive view itself.
3. Lighting dimming on sleep/lock/shutdown
This is most evident when you lock your system. Your devices will go dim until you press a button again. You can disable this in the Lighting settings.
4. Removed stutters / lagginess
Made some serious optimizations to some Windows app detection and removed some old debug code that was left in there. If you experience "micro-stutters" or some minor cursor lag before, it is now gone, and with that, lower CPU consumption. Big thanks to grpk23 for the assistance on this.
Also many fixes for the LED map editor, Immersive mode improvements, Lian-Li wired fans LED mapping, and more.
