LaunchBar Commander / Re: LBC wreaks havoc with my desktop icon locations
« Last post by mouser on February 10, 2007, 11:28 PM »
as a docking bar if you put it on left it will shift all icons a bit to the right.
if put on top, it will shift all down a bit.

ps: personally i like mine docked on the right.

I think Brett secretly hates num lock.. he's trying to rig this poll against it by mentioning it twice.  >:(

ps.
you guys pasting into outlook might want to try the new built in email functions of ScreenshotCaptor.

I'm all too familiar with this message
Chris, you're not saying you get that on The Form Letter Machine are you??

I'm starting to wonder... Won't this page become a spam spider delight?
Good point.  It's best not to put emails on this page but point to the authors webpage where there email can be found.  it certainly would be ironic if instead of thanks we brought them spam :(

Or maybe we can use a program to conver the emails to pics or something?

It's actually a good idea for a mod to the forum to obfuscate emails automatically - perhaps i will write it.  but for now lets replace the email links with links to the web page with email address.

Developer's Corner / Re: Why AJAX is Preferred for RIAs over Java

The article recommends Flex:

Otherwise, the world will end....
lol.

i think what happens is that any avatar image larger than 65x65 will be resized which kills the animation.

so if you resize the animated gif to 65x65 it will be ok, or if you save it as non-animated.

remember that the farr keyboard maniac answer for this is:
tab autocompletes with the top item in the list
alt+# autocompletes with other suggestions.

or you can down arrow to the suggested subdirector and then right arrow to autocomplet into it.
alt+left arror backs up a directory.

so i think this stuff already exists..

This is actually a nice long interesting articles on some of the shortcomings of Java and why it didnt take over the web like many expected.

ps. RIA stands for "Rich Internet Applications"
27636
that's really odd..
what operating system are you using?
can you use the default test project -- is it only when you try to create your own project that it goes crazy?
27637
oh this is absolutely planned from the start.
a plugin will be able to return a list of results that FARR itself may have no way of knowing how to "launch" - and the plugin will take over launching, whatever that means to it.

(note that FARR does know how to launch urls so if a plugin returned a list of urls FARR could handle the launching).
27638
id be interested in hearing about what you finally like best and more about what features you might want - it may be something i could extend my program "The Form Letter Machine" to do.
27639
ok let's not make this a thread about farr plugins - there will be plenty of time to do that in farr section when the api comes out and is debated.  :huh:

let's keep this thread for other ideas for giving away a copy of bds.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Capturing transparent windows with transparency - update
« Last post by mouser on February 09, 2007, 02:39 PM »
why is it that MS apps are inevitbly the apps that violate microsoft's own established standards..

sshdw86: the latest download has the feature now.
27641
im still finalizing what the plugins will be able to do and hope to have an api in about a week.  they will be able to do several things - suggest results, affect scoring, take over actions on results, and even use the output window for arbitrary display of info.
27642
the idea to add a separate limit for dir completion results (presumably higher than for file searching) is not a bad idea at all.
27643
FARR is my Find+Run Robot program (https://www.donation...dex.php?topic=6624.0)
27644
ps. no need to post when you want to try the alpha, just click the little balloon icon under my name on the left and send me a private message requesting the download.  :up:

I still have a copy of Borland's Developer Studio 2006 (worth a couple $2000) and Turbo C++ (worth $200).
I'm trying to think of an idea for a SMALL contest to award them.  Running the kind of big contests we have done recently is so much work - i'm not ready for that again.. but i'd like to do something.. any suggestions?

I'm really keen on seeing some firefox extension development.. so maybe a firefox plugin contest?
Maybe a FARR plugin contest?

Is that what it should be to make pastes the same size as the original?
there is no real answer to this question - it will depend on the monitor and the resolution of the receivers monitor - just choose something that looks right to you.

« Last post by mouser on February 09, 2007, 05:13 AM »
damn it this release sounds like its going to bring some troubles  :( :( :(
i just wish i knew why it was doing this..
the error you are seeing is an exception being thrown in the 3rd party thumbnail explorer library i use.. damn thing  :mad:

« Last post by mouser on February 09, 2007, 02:57 AM »
:( something is clearly wrong with the thumbnail browser pane..
lanux do you also have non-image files in your screenshot directory.. might that be the clue?
I'm trying to think what could cause this on your systems but not mine.

what OS are you two using?
Anything else strange about it? if you experiment can you figure out when this behavior happens and when it doesnt?

An important tip from a Vista + URL Snooper user:
Make sure you right click on URL Snooper and set it to run with Administrator privileges.  It needs that to access the network driver.
