N.A.N.Y. 2015 / Re: NANY 2015 PRE-RELEASE: Link Warlock

« Last post by hamradio on November 04, 2014, 11:14 AM »

0.11.4 build 2014 is uploaded. See top post for download link.

Issues

• Still the quirky keyboard navigation.

Changes

• Added text drag and drop with the option to toggle the showing of the dialog in Preferences then Other Interface.
• Use Shift + Click&Drag entries over any other entry in another group to move them to that group. Doesn't matter which entry as it sorts it. (Known Issue: Scrollbar doesn't scroll to get to hidden entries.)

Fixes

• Clicking links in the about dialog should be fixed. I couldn't get it to reproduce after I applied a fix...

Your help in testing the latest version for me will be much appreciated...

Add URLs by drag-n-drop?

-cranioscopical (October 31, 2014, 09:53 PM)

Just started playing with this...

I second the drag-n-drop suggestion.

Suggestion: If a URL is detected on the clipboard, pre-populate the 'Entry' field when adding a new entry.  You could make it even more efficient by adding a "Add URL from clipboard" option that wouldn't even display the 'Adding a New Entry' dialogue.  It would simply add the URL to which group is selected at the time.  Just a thought.

Toggle of the display of the add dialog for the new text drag and drop operations implemented and it uses/defaults to whichever group of the entry you are hovering over.  It will not work if you hover over the group row must be an actual entry.  Also, latest version has *not* been uploaded yet...Now to see if I can figure out how to fix the quirky keyboard navigation...This is just an update on status.

Further observations and thoughts:

• After adding or editing an entry, keyboard navigation of the listview no longer works.  You can shift-tab to give focus/control back to the listview but then the highlighted item is no longer the item with focus.  Just shift-tab and press 'Up'...you'll see what I mean.
• Drag-n-drop in the listview to move entries from group to group would be a nice-to-have.
• All the clickable URLs in the 'About' dialogue error out with an "Illegal characters in path" message box.

1. Close to fixed...
2. Now possible when I upload the new version soon with shift + click then drag over one the entries in the list it will put it in the group of the entry below cursor.
3. Should be fixed.

Yeah I am still fiddling with drag and drop some so maybe for a text drag and drop.  You can drag and drop text files to the list at the moment (import/create new list option pops up). One entry per line don't know if you figured that out or not.  You can also drag the xml files it creates to the list as well to open.

Developer's Corner / Re: [Help] - Check if a webpage contains some text then do something (C#)

« Last post by hamradio on September 08, 2014, 10:52 PM »

One way to not even use the web browser control should be as simple as this...

Code: C# [Select]

1. WebClient myWebClient = new WebClient();
2. string siteSource = myWebClient.DownloadString("PLEASECHANGETOYOURURL");
3.  
4. if (siteSource.Contains("YOURTEXT"))
5. {
6. // Your string found code here.
7. }
8. else
9. {
10. // Your string not found code here.
11. }

Wow...I think I am in with a chance to win the award for most delayed reply on DonationCoder.com ever...and not even sure you still check the forums here, but anyhow:

I am no longer developing RegaLink as I no longer have enough free time to code  I released the code to the world for people to modify and use however they want.

The code was released with no license attached...you are free to download/use/play with/modify/set on fire as much as you want

I have been working on a complete rewrite of one similar it will be due out late this year (NANY 2015) if all goes as planned.

An actual current screenshot with some options disabled/enabled:


Rest of the info ATM is classified including the name of said program.

Edit: Mouser thought I should let everyone know and show a teaser so everyone would know a version that is similar is being worked on...

General Software Discussion / Re: Frustrated Mom Creates ‘Ignore No More’ App To Get Teen Kids To Return Calls

« Last post by hamradio on August 17, 2014, 09:21 AM »

In an emergency, seconds often count. Especially if Mom is not available to immediately answer the call and unlock her kid's phone. (I can predict more than a few parents might decide not to answer a tardily returned call. They'll just play the old "tit for tat" game and 'punish' their kid by deliberately not answering and leave their kid's phone locked out. Teach em' a lesson that will!)

So having to call or text Mom back first could have dangerous unintended consequences.

Hmmm

If I type C:Photos\filenamehere it says "Can't use.

If I place a space in between the : and Photos - C: Photos\filenamehere - it says Too many arguments.

-eager to learn (July 22, 2014, 04:05 PM)

You still need to tell it to take a screenshot too...with the screenshot command if you just typed the path that is why it says can't use most likely.

Like for example (double \ is needed between folders): screenshot I:Misc\\test or even screenshot I:\\Misc\\test worked in my testing just then...
