Layout "jumps" on G15 applet

Post by RunStopRestore »

I'm not sure if this is really considered a bug, but I don't see a feature request area, so please move it to appropriate area if necessary!

On my G13 keyboard, when running the G15 applet, and using the native/built-in font, the display "jumps" periodically. This is due to the formatting of the numbers not always being two-digit. For example, my current display reads:

Code: Select all

AMD RYZEN 7 5800X3D 8-CORE (VERMEER)
 4450.00MHZ (100.00 X 44.50) - 1.2500V
CORE0: 48°C (4%) - CORE4: 49°C (1%)
CORE1: 48°C (1%) - CORE5: 49°C (0%)
CORE2: 48°C (2%) - CORE6: 49°C (0%)
CORE3: 48°C (2%) - CORE7: 49°C (0%)

However, any time a core pushes into a % usage over single digit, that row shifts over, like this:

Code: Select all

AMD RYZEN 7 5800X3D 8-CORE (VERMEER)
 4450.00MHZ (100.00 X 44.50) - 1.2500V
CORE0: 48°C (4%) - CORE4: 49°C (1%)
CORE1: 50°C (25%) - CORE5: 49°C (0%)	<--- CORE1 went to double digits, shifting the entire line 1 character
CORE2: 48°C (2%) - CORE6: 49°C (0%)
CORE3: 52°C (27%) - CORE7: 51°C (23%)	<--- CORE3 and CORE7 went to double digits, shifting the entire line 2 characters

The quick misalignment always grabs my attention away from what I'm doing, when there's really nothing wrong. It would be nice if all of the numbers were at least formatted to display two digits all the time (zero-filled), like this:

Code: Select all

AMD RYZEN 7 5800X3D 8-CORE (VERMEER)
 4450.00MHZ (100.00 X 44.50) - 1.2500V
CORE0: 48°C (04%) - CORE4: 49°C (01%)
CORE1: 50°C (25%) - CORE5: 49°C (00%)
CORE2: 48°C (02%) - CORE6: 49°C (00%)
CORE3: 52°C (27%) - CORE7: 51°C (23%)

So that the layout remains consistent. Yes, it would still jump if one of them goes into a triple-digit number. But that could be a legitimate cause for concern, and worth catching your eye.

If there's a way to format the numbers already, and I missed it, please let me know! Thank you very much.
