N.A.N.Y. 2017 / Re: NANY 2017: Progress Bars of Life Android
« Last post by mouser on January 07, 2017, 08:18 AM »
My desktop version allows such things -- for simplicity i left them out of the android version, but i will try to add them, probably as a new "type" of bar with more options.

Can you explain your first comment about "For yearly bars, I've set some up for Christmas and birthdays, there's a Repeat (yearly) checkbox, so the 'event countdown' bar-data is updated after it has passed."

Hi jabut!

You just missed the official deadline so your app didn't get included into the list of entrants, but we'll just add it to the list now and you'll still get your coffee mug  :Thmbsup:

Twmailrec! Why haven't you been sharing your software with us more regularly!?

Why don't you start a new thread in the NANY 2017 section with a screenshot, and I'll add this as a late entry NANY.

This really sounds like the error that is caused by antivirus blocking CHS from accessing it's database files.

If adding the CHS folder under MyDocuments to your antivirus exceptions doesn't solve it, try going to Tweaks tab and changing the Temporary DB file location.

Btw if anyone is struggling, this isn't a trick/joke, there really is a solution.  Here's a clue for people who get stuck:
Spoiler
Print out or draw the picture, then connect 1 with 1, and 2 with 2, now see if you can figure out how to connect 3 to 3.

I wish I understood these Android compatibility things better.  Have you tried installing the apk directly or are you trying the play store? Have you tried both ways?

This could be an interesting app if one could change the text for each mode.

you can.

you can customize the colors, the mode labels, the durations, etc.

Thanks so much for your post Solaris! Don't be such a stranger!
And let me know if you have any ideas for the diet apps.

ps.
I somehow missed Ath's PDST Personal Development Score Tracker in my initial post; that has been corrected.

I hope you will all join me in expressing our gratitude to all of the coders who contributed something this year.  It's especially fun to see some people participating for the first time.

I would like to ask folks to consider making a donation to any coders whose work you want to encourage. You can click on the gold coin next to the author's name on the first post of each thread above.  Or see the complete list of all participants: here.

And if you have not yet chosen to make a donation to the site, we could always use your donations to help pay for the mugs (about 20) that we will be sending out to each of the participants -- so please consider making a donation to the site  :Thmbsup:

N.A.N.Y. 2017 / Re: NANY 2017: Compare files
« Last post by mouser on January 03, 2017, 06:44 AM »
This actually turns out to be a really interesting program  :Thmbsup:

I'm not sure what the native language of the developer is, but it feels like it could use a slightly better description.  It's actually a very clever idea.

What it does is take snapshots in time of text files, and then let's you scroll through older versions on a kind of timeline slider...

It doesn't actually visually show differences in versions of a file, but the timeline slider makes it quite interesting to see how a file has changed over time.

Anyway, very nice idea...

I wonder if an idea like this couldn't be implemented where the actual file comparison job was shelled out to another proper file dif tool like BeyondCompare, WinMerge, etc.

Another future idea would be to watch the directory and hook windows file change messages so that you could efficiently get notified on every change rather than have the minimum monitoring time be 1 minute...

It could also probably use a better name -- from the name at first I didn't understand that this app was comparing different versions of the same tracked file, and thought it was just another generic file comparison tool.  Maybe something like File Version Comparer, or File Version Tracker, etc.
