I tried that, but it wants me to have at least 20GB free, which I dont :/

Just because it says it wants 20GB doesn't mean you have to give it 20GB.  Did you try it with a smaller amount?

Euhm, what local time is it supposed to display? My local time or the selected location's local time?

It's supposed to display the selected location's local time (at least it does for me).  Dealing with time zones is such a pain in the ass that I am using a website API for this so that might be causing the issue for you.  The API I'm using is found here:

http://www.worldweat...m/time-zone-api.aspx

I'll contact you in IRC to try and solve this issue.  If anybody knows of a nice, easy way to deal with timezones, I'm all ears.

Is there a better way?

Yep, there is.  I've been meaning to put these settings directly into the SNP file instead of the config.ini.  I'll add it to my ToDo...   :D

If you just want a very simple temporary hotkey, you could do something like this in AutoHotkey:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. F6:: ; Highlight a file in Windows Explorer and press F6 (or change F6 to whatever key you want).
  2. {
  3.     ; This is set for files with a three-letter extension.
  4.     ; Adjust the number in {Left 4} as necessary.
  5.     SendInput, {F2}{End}{Left 4}
  6. }
  7. Return

SFV Ninja v1.1.2 always crashed, when was checking files on PC. For example, when I check c:\window\

Try v1.1.3 and see if that works any better.  Thanks.

Everything else, thanks as usual Skwire!

You're welcome.  I sent you an interim build to test out.

just fyi...i still use trout nearly every week for playing drum samples in a gapless loop as a metronome to practice with.

Nice!  Good thing we have duct tape and Gorilla Glue holding it together, eh?   :P

- bring back the old tray icon, currently it is the default AHK "H" icon

Doh, not sure what happened there.  Fixed in my dev build.

- hotkey request: when the app is in focus, let me control volume with + and -

Added in my dev build.  I added both regular +/- keys and the numpad +/- keys.

- publish "multiple instances" as a GUI option and make "0" also cause the app to restore when launched again with the "0" setting (current apparent behavior is to restart the program)

I'll consider this.  In the meantime, I've changed it so that multiple attempts to launch the app are just ignored instead of restarting it.

- hotkey request: "Ctrl-O" = open dialog

Added in my dev build.

- hotkey request: "P" = play/pause

Hmmm...Looper could never really pause, i.e., clicking the play button whilst playing just restarted the track.  I did add a "P" hotkey for the current play button's functionality, though.

- retain the ability to tab around the GUI elements and activate them with SPACE (currently can no longer control volume in this way, but +/- will resolve this)

I seem to be able to do with the exception of the seekbar and volume control.  Am I misunderstanding something?

The listview sorting is something that I don't think I can do anything about.  I've tried testing with the various listview sort options available to me but none of them do what you're wanting.  What is boils down to is that, programmatically, something like "1,000" is simply not an integer or a float (decimal point number).  Trying to modify the data on the fly for the purpose of a sort is well outside the scope of Snap DB, IMO.

As for the searching issue, I can try to do something about that.  Stay tuned.

I'm glad to hear you're still using the application.  This build allows for the summing of numbers that contain commas and/or dollar signs. As usual, I've done pretty minimal testing so please let me know how it works for you in your environment.

In regards to the sorting issue, it seems to work okay for me.  Can you provide me with a list of numbers that don't sort correctly for you?  Also, which operating system are you using?

« Last post by skwire on August 23, 2012, 04:58 PM »
In a more powerful text editor this is how the code appears:



Somehow it would be best to prevent that code from making it into the newly created text file.

That is the UTF-8 Byte Order Mark.  ClipTrap supports Unicode and writes to UTF-8 format.  Lesser editors that do not support UTF-8 may have trouble with opening these files (as you have seen).  I don't believe I can change this behaviour in AHK but I'll check.  If Unicode support is not important to you, use the ANSI version of ClipTrap (ClipTrap_ANSI.exe) instead.  It does not write in UTF-8 format (and doesn't support Unicode).

« Last post by skwire on August 18, 2012, 05:03 PM »
1) Create the VM.
2) Boot the VM and create snapshot.
3) Install and test chosen piece of software in the VM.
4) Shut down the VM.
5) Revert to previous snapshot, if necessary.

Honestly, the best way to learn about virutal machines is to actually create one.  Once you see a VM in action, things instantly become clear.

The key is to make it as easy as possible to get ClipTrap contents into a file, and to exit.

Oh, I understand the reason but keep in mind that I like to keep things somewhat standard when it comes to user interfaces.  One button that does three actions like that isn't very standard.

Preferably in the .ini file you can keep track of the preferred path in which to save the file.  Maybe even a default file name.

I'll make it remember the last used path.

I can add a Save button but that's all it will do, offer to save the contents as a file.  Clear Window Text and Exit are already handled.  In other words, I like to keep things abstract.  Cool?
