scrcpy of course  :)

scrcpy-win64-v2.1.1 on Desktop Win 10

Anyone else with same problem?

You can add separate Height ... columns to Explorer,

I never saw that one!

Thanks a lot, Ed
Problem solved.

The rise of AI photo enlarging programs suddenly made my old small photos interesting again ♥

However, when I list them in Desktop Win 10 Explorer, the order is not only to my liking. I would very much like an option to also have the pictures listed according to HEIGHT x WIDTH, so I easily can sort the result. Otherwise, if they all are enlarged the same, say x8, portrait format versions easily get too high / too large.

I would want to list the pictures in HEIGHT x Width (not just the usual WxH) order (low-height ones first) and then mark some of them, to drag them to my new enlarger.

So, the app should read the dimensions, and list them,, and allow me to drag a part of them to my bigjpg.exe.

Explorer doesn't offer this HxW feature.
Do you?

Edit: or do you know a program that does?

Edge non-enterprise versions: https://www.microsof.../en-us/edge/download
I have never been offered the Enterprise version, (once installed, you never go there again, because of the automated updates), so please report back if my link is wrong.

I am using LevelZap (contextmenu addon) and it works fine. Sadly it does work on 1 folder at a time,not able to recursively on all subfolders.
etc ...

Skrommel's MoveOut will do the job. So just forget about the following request

Someone at DC once wrote a coding snack that would meet my need - but I can't find it!  (yes, I can! (https://www.dcmember...el/download/moveout/)

In a folder I have a lot of (sub-) folders that each have a photo file - or they have a full html, including the wanted image (JPG, BMP or PNG, but always larger than a thousand pixels).

# I want a script that will collect these photos and rename them and move them all into a single folder #

The new file name should of course merely be the name of the "Move from..." folder (plus 1, 2 etc if need be).

Do we already have such a program?   :-\
Or are YOU the one who would care to write it? ;-)     :Thmbsup:

Scrcpy 2.0, with audio 12 Mar 2023 https://blog.rom1v.c...rcpy-2-0-with-audio/

I am thrilled to announce the release of scrcpy 2.0. Now, you can mirror (and record) your Android 11+ devices in real-time with audio forwarded to your computer!

This new version also includes an option to select the video and audio codecs. The device screen can now be encoded in H.265, or even AV1 if your device supports AV1 encoding (though this is unlikely).

The application is free and open source. Follow the instructions to install it and run it on your computer: https://github.com/G...EADME.md#get-the-app

General Software Discussion / any shit browsers I can use?
« on: November 22, 2022, 06:28 AM »
Is there an Internet browser (Windows 10 x64 desktop) that I can use to enter an elderly site that apparently has been abandoned, so it no longer has what it normally takes? The site used to be acceptable some years ago, and now I want to visit it again, but I am prevented by my various browsers. Of course the site may have been invaded by wicked people,,, but my security programs are reasonable, and I am willing to check it, even though the situation reminds me of an medieval map showing the ocean next to Norway - the text in the waters said "here be dragons"...

@GirkovArpa,
The crossover-lite is in some ways a fantastic application.  :up:

But in every day life it is missing at least one important feature: Remember my favorite theme.

The default theme, with a feather, will never be the one that is needed for the job - and it's simply too disappointing to have to navigate for a usable theme, everytime I launche the program!

Any chance it will be updated?  :tellme:

Forgive me my slow reaction, but I was wondering what I might be doing wrong, because in my setup, the hotkey Ctrl+Alt+M isn't working / is doing nothing.

Only now do I understand the original problem:

CENTERCROSSES.jpg

The blue plus in the picture is from the new "publicdomain" app, and the black&white 'plus' is from the old app from lanux128. Notice how the upper left corner of the b/w 'plus' -sign is in that exact spot the center of its plus-sign should be. So, the "ShowScreenCenter" program is accurate, as expected, but how to show the result, was wrongly formulated.

I have not yet tested further than opening, click hotkeys, closing, repeating a couple of times - and wondering What blue pen?

To me it is well working, Victor.  :Thmbsup:

Would you care to add Start hidden / minimized to systray / notification area, please?

or you could use one of the free apps that we have here on DonationCoder... like FilesNanny or Files 2 Folder

[ Invalid Attachment ]It would be interesting to know if any of you guys have tried the (attached) original file from lanux128 ? It was fine on Windows Vista - so I am wondering if the problem might be my setup. I mean, how can (A_ScreenWidth/2), (A_ScreenHeight/2) give anything but the center? Why is there a problem in the first place?

 :tellme:

I'm in with ScreenMark!

Do you have the exact same requirement? i.e. show a mark @ the very center of your screen?
-publicdomain

Yes, Vic, same procedure. The very center.

But Deozaan made me realize that the taskbar can make a difference? However, I have never had the need for the precise vertical spot, merely the horizontal (width) one. So I am GUESSING that the taskbar that Deozaan is mentioning, not is the problem; I was only talking about the spot being too far to the right. I have not even checked if the displayed spot is too high up or what. Edited: I have Taskbar > AutoHide

lanux128 has not posted since November 2019...

Any takers to my problem?

The app is not doing its job properly on my 1920x1080: The cross comes up half a centimer off center! -even with no apps open.

I don't have the neccessary notes to go back and investigate when this began, I never imagined it could be needed.
