Microsoft is testing new options that will allow you to choose where on-screen indicators appear in Windows 11. Welcome, Top left volume bar!
Earth’s Phantom Some screenshots have shared that demonstrate changes. Before you are very excited, I have to tell that it does not look the same as one on Windows 10. If you have forgotten, Windows 10 has a vertical on-screen indicator (OSD) for volume control, the upcoming OSD on Windows 11 uses a horizontal design. This horizontal volume slider was introduced about 3 and 1/2 years ago. The new time looks exactly as it does now, but you can move it to the top left, or top center. This is a welcome change, especially the volume bar appears in the lower center of the screen, well where the subtitle or playback bar usually appears, which may be a bit annoying. Taking it to the top or corner of the screen can fix the problem.
According to leikar, the option to customize the OSD space will be available under the Settings> System> Notification Page. The setting is under a section that is labeled “indicator from keyboard actions”, and is called “the position of on-screen indicator”. It also changes the location of osds for brightness, and other controls.
On a sedanote, the Microsoft Settings app is also adding some options such as displaying additional watches in the system tray, which can be useful that can be useful to know the time in different time areas. Microsoft is also asked to test a dynamic background, which will automatically update the wallpaper based on your selection. Yes, this is an AI-manual feature.
Do you remember Quick Machine Recovery? This is a feature that will automatically fix boot failures on Windows 11. well, Xenopanther says This option is being enabled by default on Windows 11. All these changes are currently being tested in the Windows Insider program, but have not yet been declared by Microsoft. So it may take some time before making their way on a stable channel.
Thanks for reading..
