KodeZwerg's Realm / Re: KodeZwerg's Important Notes, F.A.Q. and Rules

« Last post by mouser on April 11, 2021, 05:26 AM »

 

Only thing I would suggest from the list above to reconsider is the use of executable packers.  These days it seems much more trouble than it's worth.

[modified by KodeZwerg]
you hacked my locked topic 
all new programs do not receive any special executable packing treatment anymore.
that was meant for my older work over the years.

Clipboard Help+Spell / Re: Infopopup after payment

« Last post by mouser on April 08, 2021, 09:54 AM »

You should not ever see the popup again once you put in the key.
It must not have been saved.  You can check the Help menu -> About item to have it show you if it thinks it is licensed.
Let me know if you are still having trouble.

N.A.N.Y. 2012 / Re: NANY 2012 Pledge & Release: Image Grid

« Last post by mouser on April 07, 2021, 07:05 PM »

ImageGrid is such a useful tool, and so easy to use.
vlastimil if you are still around, I have a couple of feature requests.  Mostly they have to do with being able to set some options:

1. Ability to have the margins configurable (in size and color).
2. Ability to have TRANSPARENT margins.  This may mean an option for png format.
3. Options for rescalling images so that we could choose for example to have all images in a row be the same height, and/or all items in the same column be the same height. preserving aspect ratio, cropping, etc.

Clipboard Help+Spell / Re: Can't repair corrupt database

« Last post by mouser on April 05, 2021, 02:11 PM »

Thanks for updating us, viking.
That is indeed very strange..
Whenever there is some problem accessing the database file it seems to be traceable back to an antivirus program locking the database file.  There are some options in CHS for where to store that file.  Changing that location and/or adding it to the list of excluded folders in your antivirus program might help if it happens again.

CHS also makes backups of your database regularly, so as a last resort you could restore from a backup.

You should be able to click (and hold) on a blank area and drag it up to the top (you may not get visual feedback until your cursor nears the top).

Screenshot Captor / Re: Capture Only Grabs Upper-Left Portion of Screen

Can you try unpacking the portable version in another folder and running that version, just so we can see if a new copy behaves the same?
(make sure normal version is not running).

Automatic Screenshotter / Re: Automatic ScreenShotter Thoughts

« Last post by mouser on March 17, 2021, 05:44 AM »

Let's get back to this overarching point for a second:

My use case was keeping a somewhat searchable visual log of what I had done/was doing.

I have occasionally thought of making a kind of hybrid app that was a combination of Automatic Screenshotter plus some more information, with a more flexible system for browsing history of activity, so it could be used more as a way of tracking one's own activity history.. I'd be interested in hearing more ideas along these lines..

I guess the idea is that it would try to log the activity you perform on your computer, with screenshots, to show you what activities you were doing, what apps you launched, documents opened, etc.

New beta with %winTitle field you can use:
Beta download of v1.20.01:

• https://www.donation...reenshotterSetup.exe
• https://www.donation...nshotterPortable.zip

Been a while since I updated my software so I'm a little rusty and thought I'd try a quick one-feature beta release.  Let me know if the new %winTitle does what you want/expect.

Automatic Screenshotter / Re: Automatic ScreenShotter Thoughts

« Last post by mouser on March 11, 2021, 01:34 AM »

The only issue I ran into was when deleting the images from the internal screenshot browser. I needed to back out of the folder containing the images I had deleted and then navigate back in for the image thumbnails to disappear.

sounds like a bug, ill check it.

Add window title to custom naming

added to todo list, that's an easy one.

having program specific profiles for capture would be useful.

that's a good idea.. but not so easy to do.

If someone were using this to audit their time, I could see it being helpful to add a "project" tag and be able to apply that tag to the captures being collected.

I like this idea.. i may add a right-click menu item to set the project tag (maybe hotkey too).

We're still going strong.  I'm still not quite sure WHY I'm working on this project, but I figure I'll keep working on it through 2021 and then figure out why..

For those curious, we've posted a video talking about our first two months on youtube:

Here are some stats for anyone interested, after 2 months:
Days online: 60
Videos published so far: 46
Hours published: 91
Subscribers: 165
Views: 6k
Compensation received: $ 75 (raised from patreon); 1 hoodie from local game shop
Enjoyment level: 100%

ps. I don't know why YouTube is playing this back in low resolution -- you can change the quality to 1080 or 4k from the gear icon in the video.
