N.A.N.Y. 2013 / Re: NANY 2013 Release: Customizable Remote Administration Panel (CRAP)
« Last post by hamradio on Today at 03:50 PM »
I'm wondering if having it hide as long as no button uses the variable may be confusing for new users that didn't read about the feature first, especially if it's hidden when they start a new layout (which by default would be empty), or if they just start by making one such button and then the field disappears.

Maybe having it just be a toggleable option for each layout would keep it more simple (also when it comes to maintaining the code, even though I guess that's not for me to worry about).

Location may change but atm...here is what I did currently for a toggleable option. I added a local preferences dropdown menu into the preferences menu and renamed the other preferences to global preferences. Then I added a variable bar preference of "On, Off, Auto" with "On" being the default setting. The variable bar options also have a tooltip explaining each if hovered.

The way I am looking at local vs global is...local meaning to each layout and global means it is an application wide preference.

I have seen where Elecom has both large and small sizes.  I have the Huge and it is a stretch for me.  Thank you for the link to the trackball site ,  that is a wonderful place to visit.  I have used trackballs for years after elbow surgery.

trackball mice

If you like trackballs, take a look at Trackball Mouse .org reviews (if you haven't already).  One caveat; amongst others, he likes the Kensington Expert Mouse.  It's a big device.  You need quite big hands to be really comfortable with it.

Well I'm sure yet if that's a good idea, but I've been thinking, perhaps it would be nice to have a layout-related option that would allow to hide the Variable field and Favorites menu, in case someone intends to use that layout specifically for shortcut type links that do not require any input?
-ConstanceJill (May 02, 2024, 10:17 AM)

I have implemented at the moment in my local copy for it to check to see if any button that is enabled has the ignore variable unchecked and if the layout has all ignore variables for each then it will hide the top bar else display it...but let me know if you want it a different way or not at all. I am cool with whichever way you would prefer on this.

Find And Run Robot / Re: A similar function to Listary's Quick Switch function?
« Last post by AJolly on May 06, 2024, 02:54 PM »
Btw, there's a search everything plugin that does this quickswitch feature.  https://www.voidtool...iewtopic.php?t=11194
Now if only FARR would use everything as its backend search, the slowness of FARR vs other indexed tools is my one downside to FARR

I finally found Elecom/Deft they are in Japan and make a good mouse actually they make several trackball mice .  I have been using their cordless pro and what they call Huge.  Both are very nice  and not bad price either.

Logitech Mx Master 3S has a wonderful dull quiet sound when you click the buttons.  I love it.

I finally found a kindred spirit, except this guy is much smarter than I am:

"I made a DIY gaming mouse because Logitech's mice keep BREAKING"


It's open source, too:
