Hi Rijstkoek,
- When you've selected the 'Open at login' option it will prompt the msgbox when the user is trying to shut down his/her Macbook Pro. Like you've mentioned before it should pop up when the user selects the option.
- When you click next to the Ultrafan window is stays open, it should close itself.
When you check "Open at login", UltraFan wants to be quit with an active target (that is to say, auto mode enabled).
If "open at login" is checked, but no target is active, UltraFan will ask for instructions.
When you shut down your computer, OS X tries to quit all the open apps, and if "open at login" is checked without an active target, that window will spawn.
With the next revision I'm going to sort that out, possibly.
As for the second part, what do you mean by "next"? If you mean, I want UltraFan's window to close when I click somewhere outside, I can do it. I've implemented that behaviour in Beta 3, but I removed it for compatibility reasons (have to do more research; window management is not exactly the same with different OS versions).
Now I have something that I'm not sure if it's intended to work this way but if it's a bug I hope that you DON'T fix it (you could fix it but make an option somewhere to enable it again):
- When I put the fans on manual maximum speed and I reboot into Windows 7 using Bootcamp, the fans stay on maximum from the start. I LOVE THIS. I mostly use my Macbook Pro for graphics designing but sometimes I also enjoy playing a game on Windows. Because the MBP can get really hot while gaming it's awesome to be able to keep the fans on max from the start so it doesn't feel like I'm touching lava after 5 minutes. Without Ultrafan the fans will also kick in but it takes much more time and by then the MBP will be hot on the outside already. So this is an awesome feature (the biggest reason why I use Ultrafan to be honest)
Yes, that's expected. The manual settings stay active until you power off your machine, when using Bootcamp.
As said before, since I'm an graphics designer I also go to clients with my MBP to show them the progress of my work. The problem is that, since I started using Ultrafan, my fans never stopped making noise. When I'm working I don't mind this (I usually have some music in the background) but at a client this is kind of annoying. I prevented Ultrafan from starting up, made sure the auto temperature was off and rebooted the MBP but the fans kick in immediately and start making noise. Since the MBP is only around 30°C at that moment it's not necessary that the fans spin so fast so could you make another option that when I enable it, the normal Mac OSX fan control takes over again (making the fans run slower and eliminating the sound) or that when I'm using auto temperature control and I'm like 10 degrees under the requested temperature the fans go slower than they are going now? It's just an feature that would make my life (and I'm sure also the ones of others) just a little bit better.
When you quit UltraFan, when you disable the manual mode and when you reset your auto mode session, UltraFan gives the OS full control of your fans, always. It's designed to work only when you want it to.
As an example, opening and quitting UltraFan will give your OS fill control of the fans. If you do that, but your fans ramp up, blame OS X.
For reference, UltraFan's algorithm is dynamic, but usually it should set the minimum speed when the temperature stays under the target for some time.
