After reading and understanding your last posts, i have made a decission to create a new app for that purpose. For my "TextLimit" is is out of bound. (possibility to split-to-fit will be added here aswell)

Your needs, more "configurable" / "flexible" things: that has nothing to do with that project, just some basics match.

New project "kzTwitster" (name may change, was my first thought), will be born soon to fit your requests.

I am no twitter-dude, will add optional checkboxes for 'begin with "..."' and 'print page number'.
Those extra data be included to set limit.

Shall both be on extra lines or within start/end of text?

Example (for page 2):
'0123456789' -> '...0123456789 [2/2]'
Or:
'...
0123456789
[2/2]'
And does twitter count linebreaks as a wasted character?

@orbis
Very possible to do (i planned doing such anyway)
My plan:
Add button 'split-to-fit'
Press that button my app will add at bottom another edit box, starting with first logical correct block.
Another button 'next' will add next logical data to that edit box until everything is processed.

Is that something to fit request or should workflow be different?

@v, you are welcome bro.
@o, if you mean my 'split-to-fit' suggestion, you might take a look on my own project (textlimit) and add that as a request if you like my way of doing things. (I am still a bit confused, so i stop request things within a user-made-request, i do not wish to violate any rules)

« on: April 30, 2021, 06:34 PM »

Suggestion to have it work like you expect it (...to have less uninformative replies for you...)

Make your request like 'i only want to have my wish coded and not interested in alternatives or other information'
Ofc better written but that it is meaning of my 'text'.

If it is urgent, you may tell that a bonus reward will be made. And add 'PM me for details' within your request.

That would reduce reply amount alot = you are not confused/more satisfied.

I do not know about your slave stuff, sound bad to me.

Join discord is always a good choice.

Enjoy your staying!

Good day.
Sorry my bad english.
My post 'not interested' plus what to do without any 3rd party tool was not meant to offend you.
Sorry if you interpreted this as such.
On this forum many talented coders/users with great knowledge are taking a request/giving hints.
- To signal others/or OP; i'd say what i say.
From point of donation: give what think is fair. 1cent or a million, it is your free will, no rule.
Mouser (the head from this forum) made a cool 'how much is fair' letter, just search a bit and you find it.
First of all, all software is availabe free, but have in mind, even coders/helpful users must eat!

Everything i write is not meant to harm, i just express myself often rough without knowing it.

Enjoy your staying!

If you can live without any familiar features this would be feasible. (just the box with the items would be the result if I try.)
Else I would say: not possible, at least not for one that do give support in here as hobby-coder.
Nice how you shortened the names, also very hard to do by code.

I don't understand prev/post - am I missing something here?

-vevola (April 28, 2021, 02:36 AM)

Prev = pick a color for "legit" text, all text that did not cross the limit
Post = pick a color for text that exceed the limit.

Hotfix:
 - i accidently made a mistake with cursor positioning, fixed
 - added a statusbar to inform you better (row, column, position, characters left)
 - Renamed application
 - fixed coloring when you delete text
 - Updated version number

Updated version in Post #1.
(Updated image aswell in post #1)

Enjoy!

Positioning error:
When you entered text, all was fine, edit text inside text = cursor jumped to end of document.

Coloring error:
I forgot to recolor when you delete characters.

KodeZwerg's TextLimit

Application Name	TextLimit
Version	v1.1
Short Description	Portable application to visualize a set limit on Text
Supported OSes	Windows
Version History	First public release. Added Hotfix.
Author	KodeZwerg

This application is a quick build that match my personal needs.
Usage:
1. Set up limit number
2. Enter Text (or paste)

When limit is reached, text will be drawn in red characters.
Coloring and Statusbar updating only perform when you use Keyboard.

Additional I have implemented a quick and dirty password generator that also uses the limit.




Enjoy.


- Based on an Idea from a user and an Application made by Vic aka PublicDomain from this Forum. Here is a link to his LimitPad.

« on: April 27, 2021, 04:59 AM »

@vic, no need to implement my wish anymore. i recreated my project (formerly deleted my project after seeing yours). it fit perfect to my needs and no user-request is harmed since it is my own thing now :-]
soon i make it public within my realm downloads.
my changes in short:
only react to used characters, no colors can be choosen, dark and light theme, pw-generator
maybe i add a "split-to-fit" feature, so one main edit can be filled with as much text as you like, pressing a button would generate several sub-edits that hold text to match the limit.

have a nice day!

Post New Requests Here / Re: Show Center of monitor screen

« on: April 26, 2021, 08:09 PM »

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?

-Curt (April 25, 2021, 06:00 PM)

FYI the taskbar is not part of the desktop client area. Normal apps center on desktop, so their centering is correct.

-KodeZwerg (April 20, 2021, 08:04 PM)

Still just a guess and a fact; if author really has used your formula there would be another problem, "Screen" is a dimensional sum of all connected displays :-] (having 2 displays of same size the center would be "one half on left and one half on right display")
Luckily there are Api ways to determine position and size of taskbar, aslong original taskbar is used. If custom taskbar was used, last chance would be to recognize dimension of current active display to center things like you want to have it.

The trascendental question is If I can use offline wikiloc
Trying to see if exist an app for this purpose and I can download a offline map to see without internet connection.

Check it out if that is possible with your devive and you are good to go.

In the 1. target

I may be able to upload a route like in wikiloc
https://es.wikiloc.com/
When I use the GPS of my mobile I must be able to recognize the route and obtain additional data with no internet connection.
 

-Contro (April 22, 2021, 04:41 AM)

I do not exactly how you translate that in english but i try:
For dogs and cats that have access to open land, there was invented a small gps tracking device plus software for pc to map everything.
Also a bicycle thief protection, same feature, exists.

All are same, small gps devices that either save track or send directly track to satellites.

In addition to that: Android GPS Tracking

No Internet = No GPS at all AFAIK.
(then it is only possible with a string that you lay out and measure how long it is afterwards)

Things that i want to have done before public version will be released.

Todo List

• have basic features working
• add full unicode support
• block usermade errors or
• jump with cursor to let user fix that
• implement "translate-before-speak it" feature
• either activate Bing App Id edit box or have a dialog pop up on first start....
• implement configuration file handling
• adjust "speak it" audio file location
• implement "bright" and "dark" theme
• maybe plan to save "speak it" files...
• stop application on server errors
• exchange short country names to long
• things that i have forgot to mention right now

Feel free to suggest me more.

-Ath (April 21, 2021, 06:29 AM)

i am sorry, i did understood things wrong and reacted overheated. a good guy helped fixing that!

now i tell you why i wanted that feature:
i do use a widget that contain nice apps i regular use. that limitpad is a nice app i wanted to integrate. also i often need random password. his program would have melted two things i regulary need together.

i please you to not try convince me with our opinion, i felt like i was in a confrontation, my spelling skills are not that good to express myself better.

i do understand your opinion. and you are right. there are zillion of programs out there that can generate passwords.
please understand also mine. my widget also has limits, where i am always looking for quality applications that combine more than one feature.

lets be cool again, that is my wish.

(...i hope that was somehow okay...)

add password generator please

-KodeZwerg (April 20, 2021, 04:31 PM)

Why would you need that to write a text? There are already roughly 1 million password generators (or more), rich and poor, why try to add one where (nearly) nobody needs one?

This should be a nice, single purpose tool, please don't add bloatware to it.

-Ath (April 21, 2021, 12:33 AM)

I am sorry if you do not like my request. Do not think I am too dumb to program and use my own tool for that matter. In my humble opinion a program that limit text to a speficific character amount is made for such matter.
