Post New Requests Here / Re: Need buttons to download a file and disable used button, how to do so in HTML?

« Last post by Ath on July 06, 2023, 04:29 PM »

How are you going to save the downloaded-state for each file? As a refresh/reload of the page will re-enable any disabled buttons...

If you want an indication of what's been downloaded already, then present the downloads as links, default browser behavior is to give visited links a different color from new links, similar to:

Well, it does, kind of, but also the title was close to a click-bite (for a techie like me), so making it explicit does help a lot. Thanks.

You might want to make it more explicit that you're aiming at networkadapters... I have a lot of adapters in use, but only a few are networkadapters...

The Microsoft .exe installers are often just a wrapper around an MSI installer. MSI is a little easier to integrate in automated deployment.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Getting Prompted during Delete Back

« Last post by Ath on March 09, 2023, 03:20 PM »

You could check the file C:\Users\<username>\Documents\DonationCoder\ScreenshotCaptor\ScreenshotCaptor.ini for any Delete option that might be in the 'wrong' state.
Most likely closing SSC completely, then removing that option (or commenting by inserting a semicolon at the start of the line) and restarting SSC will resolve that (untested...).

Check out the Window Capturing 1 and 2 option panels (after enabling the settings there on the Miscellaneous Tweaks page: 'Enable aero window capturing options even on Win8/Win10'), there may be tweaks that might help in resolving this issue.

Living Room / Re: Apple Lisa, the first (modern) GUI

« Last post by Ath on January 26, 2023, 11:58 AM »

I actually owned a Lisa XL (3.5" 400k diskdrive and 10 MB harddrive) for a while, somewhere in the 1988-1989 time-range. But, working on the PC-side of IT, I didn't use it much (if any), so ended up selling it, way too cheap, at a local computer-fair. Made that guy's day, I guess

Q: How do I return from relative mode (after clicking once) back to absolute coordinates mode?

-Ath (December 14, 2022, 05:17 AM)

I do not understand, it never change its coordinate system since I do use a low level mouse hook.

-KodeZwerg (December 14, 2022, 03:58 PM)

I think my question is invalid, did a quick test when I asked as I got somewhat confused, but now that I looked a bit longer (and closer) it's working just fine.

Looking great

General Software Discussion / Re: Mark the screen before obtaining a screenshot

« Last post by Ath on October 29, 2022, 11:31 AM »

As usual, your thinking is backward/reversed.

But if you really want to do it that way, then you can use SysInternals' ZoomIt to draw/write on your (still being updated) screen, and take a screenshot afterward. Don't forget to RTFM!

ScreenshotCaptor is quite good at this, I use it for multi-page screenshots from browsers on a regular (like weekly) basis. It does take a little getting used to, but mouser made a lot of video tutorials on the subject. Recommended!

No, no and no.

SFTP

The only thing they have in common is "Transfer Protocol", but there are about 50* more of these.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Grab selected region makes screen go big

« Last post by Ath on September 02, 2022, 12:29 AM »

hitting PrtScrn, which is my hotkey for "Grab Selected Region," makes the screen go big and selecting a region useless.

-bwoods (September 01, 2022, 09:35 PM)

Most likely another tool is (also) hooking into that hotkey, most notably OneDrive IIRC, please try to (temporarily) change the hotkey for this feature and see if it still behaves like that

Is there a cheap way to operate these five sensors?

Ask the developer of that software to fix that, it seems like quite a severe and unneeded limitation.

I think it needs to be repeated that this issue is a long standing 'undesirable feature' of Windows (lmgtfy link), and should not be attributed to Screenshot Captor.

You could request a replacement under warranty from the supplier, as it clearly doesn't work as is to be expected & intended.
