Site/Forum Features / Adding back an Ignore Thread feature?
« Last post by mouser on May 15, 2016, 09:58 AM »
So I'm thinking I may add back the Ignore Thread feature.

It would only take effect on the UNREAD/RECENTLYUPDATED pages.

Folks want this?

I guess it's only this one option:

If you uncheck that, FARR should always pop up at the same place (on the same monitor) that you last had it at.  So you move it where you want it and it will always pop up there.

You can't specifically do that but there are a few different options you can choose for where to show the window.

Developer's Corner / Long read: An Interview with Matt Haughey, Founder of MetaFilter
« Last post by mouser on May 13, 2016, 10:11 AM »
Interesting read about a well known community site that caught the wave of google ads and then saw it decline overnight..

MetaFilter, started in the late ’90s as one of the original group blogs, grew into a small but active community site. When AdSense came out in 2003, it suddenly started accruing revenue. By 2005, Matt was making double his salary and was able to quit his day job to focus on MetaFilter full-time.

In 2012, a reconfiguration in how Google ranked pages caused MetaFilter’s revenues to drop overnight. During the next few years, Matt struggled to keep MetaFilter afloat. Just over a year ago, Matt stepped back from his day-to-day role. Indie.vc caught up with him last week to check in on how things have been going.

General Software Discussion / MakeUseOf: 9 Cleanest & Safest Websites to Download Free Software for Windows

DonationCoder was listed on a makeuseof.com page on 9 cleanest and safest websites to download free software for windows!  :Thmbsup:

As the author points out, we aren't a general repository and only host our own software -- which makes it even more of an honor that we were listed.  :up: :up: :up:

N.A.N.Y. 2016 / Re: NANY 2016 Pledge/Alpha: Mouser's Media Browser
« Last post by mouser on May 12, 2016, 08:28 AM »
Any more suggestions?

I think this program has a very narrow niche use -- that's because there are some very excellent completely free image browsers (xnview for example), which have tons of features and work very well.

I do feel like this program (Mouser's Media Browser) could play a role as a kind of bundled add-on for other programs (like my own Screenshot Captor and Clipboard Helps and Spell, and Automatic Screenshotter). It occurred to me that other tools might want to bundle it in to their tools as well.

There are 2 main features that I need to add to the program before i think it will show its true value:
  • The first is to make it properly multithreaded, so that there is no delay when browsing large directories -- right now the program is unresponsive while scanning very large directories.
  • The second is to add a virtual-date folder idea that i have which would make a very nice way to browse large directories of images, by providing a hierarchical timeline type view.

Detail's-view Mode' feature; But as an optional extra panel rather than a replacement of either the filmstrip or grid view.

yeah i think a small detail panel, showing details about the currently selected file would be a good idea.

Ok finally let me try to reply to these posts!

First, thanks for the info about the on-top behavior hiding the about box.
All of the behavior you describe about the program being unresponsive is all due to the fact that a dialog (about box) was behind the main window which was forcing itself on top.
This is a bug that has been seen in a couple of my other programs -- i need to remember to not let it creep back in!
I occasionally see it in other people's programs as well. I will fix.
ps. a good solution in this case is just select the main window and hit escape.  The escape key will usually close the hidden dialog.

Second,
About this program needing its own section -- you are probably right.  I usually do create a section for each app of mine, but this one hasn't gotten much attention so i haven't bothered yet.  Same with my Automatic Screenshotter tool.
