NANY 2010 Idea: A 'polite' reminder/diary system
skwire:
I think the Trout screencasts need to come first. Bahahahaha.
Ransom:
Feature Request: I find that there are times when I don't want Anuran to pop up as it normally does - For instance if I'm using a fullscreen application.
I could just close Anuran and re-open it when I'm done, but I'd prefer a "Pause" option on the tray icon's right-click menu.
Ideally there would also be a hotkey to toggle pause on and off.
It may also be useful to have a user-configurable "auto-resume" so that the user doesn't forget to unpause, but this isn't critical.
Even without this, Anuran is a great little app. Good work!
skwire:
I'm easy - actually I think 'as is' is best - you might have many files showing in viewer but it only opens last selected in Notepad anyways.
I was just trying to think of a way to make it clear to new users - I guess something like Dr.Frog suggested might be clearer (in the menu) - "Open selected file in Notepad" (?)

I changed the default to that but, in case you didn't realise it, you can change the menu text to whatever you like.
I believe that mass export into plaintext is on the todo list anyway, which will reach the same end, with the added benefit that they'll also be a little bit easier to read. In the meantime, 'export current view to file' mostly fulfills that desire anyway.-doctorfrog (November 17, 2009, 06:18 PM)

Right, the "Export current view to file" ought to cover most things so, I'm curious, how did you want the mass export to work?
Speaking of which:
- Feature request: AnuVu: select all/select none capability in logfile pane. This can be relegated to an Edit menu, or appended to the File menu.
- To Discuss: what are your thoughts on a buttoned toolbar in AnuVu? I personally don't need it, but do you think users will want it?-doctorfrog (November 17, 2009, 06:18 PM)

1. Will add in the next build.
2. Yes, a toolbar is planned. I dig toolbars. =]

A pause option is certainly doable...maybe change the icon to the a red frog or something. A hotkey for such is easy as well. I'll add both of these items to my ToDo. The auto-resume idea is certainly doable but I think some things ought to be left to the responsibility of the user. Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

I've been thinking of requesting this feature myself. I like the idea of shading the icon to indicate Anuran is suspended. There is the issue of remembering to turn it back on, and I think an auto-resume option is a bit much. How about this:
Request: Even if Anuran's popup is temporarily "paused," Anuran still makes the event sound (ribbit) at the appropriate times, just without the popup. This is a toggleable option, in case the user doesn't want to be bothered at all. Hope that isn't too much work, Skwire.

I just see it as stripping the markup from the individual text files, and saving as .txt. No more, no less. The more I think about it, though, the less I see the use in this, unless the logfiles start to become more complex. "Export view" does a pretty good job on its own.
Also, I'm fiddling with CamStudio now, I can try my hand at a feature tour screencast. I'm kind of a dork, though.
