PublicDomainVic / Re: KeyStick (v0.1.0-alpha.1)

Would be interesting to read what it is actually supposed to do/solve...  :huh:

Clipboard Help+Spell / Re: What are Mouser plan for this tool?
« on: October 16, 2024, 04:40 PM »
I don't know (as I'm still on Windows 10) -- have there been problems with mouser's software on Windows 11 ?

Not with ScreenshotCaptor (used nearly daily) or any of the other tools, in ~2.5 years since I'm using Win11 (new laptop came with Win11).

Screenshot Captor / Re: Prevent launching file manager after capture
« on: October 14, 2024, 01:17 PM »
In the Preferences screen, there's a page full of 'Post capture options' to choose from. Most likely you've set one of the options there that's causing this behavior, maybe a Commandline tool?

It's been a while since someone posted in this thread, but I'm trying to keep it alive:

1 too late, but a nice one from tuxman:

I have replaced them, on multiple M705, but only mediocre quality switches I could find on the interwebz, so, 6 months later the issue was back, and I couldn't find the motivation to replace them again :huh:

6
hoping that the modern "gaming" mice will be more resistant.
After years of using Logitech M705 mice, where newer editions started double-clicking when not intended because of poor switches, I've since then bought the Razer Basilisk X, and that has proven to be of better quality, and still big enough for my not so small hands, but not as bulky and pricey as the Logitech MX Master. Another reason not to choose Logitech again was several reports of their sometimes poor quality from other ppl (colleagues, forum, tech-news).

Nah, they cancelled that "(bad) idea" a few days after the announcement: https://www.pcworld....just-a-bad-idea.html

Which assistants have you tried
-KynloStephen66515 (August 02, 2024, 04:50 PM)
None, opinion based on the crappy 'examples' / 'answers' that ppl posted in (another) forum.

Basically, I'm sitting out the storm, to see what eventually rolls out without the world crumbling to pieces. (Must be related to my age/experience and somewhat conservative approach to 'the latest hype') :)

Do you mean the quality of the code? The LLMs themselves? or am I missing something
-KynloStephen66515 (August 02, 2024, 02:45 PM)

Any example I've seen so far seems to be a garbage answer, unusable or totally unfit to what it's supposed to be tailored to. I'll wait and see what's left after the dust of this hype settles :huh:

Simple: Nope. To me that's garbage in, garbage out.

Coding Snacks / Re: Unlock used files on the fly, in the background
« on: August 01, 2024, 12:29 PM »
As a nearly fulltime Windows user (software developer), I never have to deal with locked files, so I'm quite curious what you do that you need such tool?

12
You can just grab the toolbar with the mouse pointer, and drag it to where you want it. That's probably also how it got there where it is now... ;)

Screenshot Captor / Re: Overexposed Screenshot
« on: July 19, 2024, 02:09 PM »
This type of odd behavior has been caused by graphics card driver issues, in the past. General solution was to update to the latest available WHQL certified driver to get rid of the deformations.

NB: No need to cross-post in multiple sections of the forum, Mouser has it all covered, though he seems to be busy on other projects lately.

14
Wouldn't that all be fixed by handling strings as Unicode? Because stripping 'non-ascii' from titles would mean significant information being removed from these titles :huh:

15
What I don't know is how it got unchecked.
One of the buttons in the toolbar hides it and disables that setting... 8)

The Quick Capture Bar is in it's own settings page:

Well, I just got an automatic update, so that part worked :Thmbsup:

General Software Discussion / Re: Any good Control Viewer?
« on: March 26, 2024, 02:31 PM »
If you install AutoHotKey you'll also find the Window Spy, that does similar things like the Control Viewer. The AutoIt tool never worked that well for me, not even on Windows XP, 7 or 10.

19
that runs Windows 11, where it does not seem possible to create custom toolbars any more.
-ConstanceJill (March 23, 2024, 03:19 PM)
That major mishap of MS (one of many in Windows 11, for some reason they want to make Windows 11 look like Mac OS :mad:) can be circumvented by installing ExplorerPatcher, that will make Windows 11 usable (bearable?) for power (actually: any) users.

General Software Discussion / Re: Any Break Reminder freeware?
« on: March 05, 2024, 01:42 AM »
it was a huge 20MB file

That's mostly the content for demonstrating the exercises you could do during the breaks. The software is open source, so you can inspect what it's actually doing, and what's included. :tellme:

requirement 1) can be achieved by the (extended) volume mixer of Windows 10 and later.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Sending picture as URL
« on: February 29, 2024, 04:26 PM »
The url has to be externally accessible, so you'll have to (auto-)upload the file somewhere (SC can do that) and share the link.

23
Therefore I wondered whatever happened to this as it feels like something I would use and keep forever.

Not sure what exact software you are pointing at here (multiple links, and a different thread subject... :huh:)

The user fenixproductions wasn't migrated to the new DCMembers,.com/[username] site it seems (it was a manual move with a temporary redirect, that they didn't participate in, AFAICS)

The ghisler link is still working.

The download for the Dimensions2Folders software by skwire, in this thread, is also still working.

General Software Discussion / Re: Play MP3s Randomly?
« on: January 05, 2024, 01:23 AM »
but I do not know how to use the command line functions...
Hm, documentation isn't very elaborate :o, but I think you can extract most commands from the changelog.txt file.
Guess the Random option has to be set in the UI, after which you can add tracks by issuing "trout (track.mp3)", probably supports wildcards, though I haven't tested that.

General Software Discussion / Re: Play MP3s Randomly?
« on: January 04, 2024, 04:25 PM »
Usually, Skwire already has a tool for that, and indeed, it's available, for some time: Trout  :D
