Is there a limit to the size of file that can be opened?

N.A.N.Y. 2026 / Re: N.A.N.Y. 2026 submission -- Sticky Notes

« Last post by DeVamp on January 27, 2026, 05:09 AM »

My langcode is 0809.
FormatTime(, "ddd") return "di" for me.

So I had to change this:

            Case "13","09":  ; Dutch (0413, 0813)
                This.DAY_MAP := Map(
                    "zo", "zo",
                    "ma", "ma",
                    "di", "di",
                    "wo", "wo",
                    "do", "do",
                    "vr", "vr",
                    "za", "za"
                )

And now it seems to work.

@DeVamp Please try the version I just committed to the Github repo. 
https://github.com/kunkel321/Stickies

FYI from commit comment:

-The map with weekday names was redundant (existed in three places).  There is only one map now, and it supports several different languages. 
-The script attempts to determine your language at startup and uses the associated weekday names and date formats.  (Dialogs will still be in English.) 
-Several (but not every) languages are supported.
* German (language codes: 0407, 0807, 0c07, etc.)
* Dutch (language codes: 0413, 0813)
* French (language codes: 040c, 080c, 0c0c, 100c, 140c, 180c)
* Spanish (language codes: 0c0a, 080a, 100a, 140a, 180a, etc.)
* Russian (language codes: 0419, 0819, 0c19)
* English (default for all English variants and unsupported languages)

-I can't really test the non-English languages, so please let me know if there are any problems setting alarms. 
-I can probably add a language for someone if they want me to. 

EDIT:  I just now saw the post by @Marco66.  Marco, thanks for the bug report.  Does this new version fix it?

Why are you using a shortday and not a daynumber?

-DeVamp (January 23, 2026, 05:25 AM)

Hello,
I only did that so that the note editor alarm button, and the alarm column in the note manager would have "human-friendly" letters Mo, Tu, ...  rather than numbers. 

I'll see if I can make the code more useful for non-English computers. 

Also though, You should be able to just change the text in the map, so that it matches the names of the weekdays on your computer, and I think it will work.  I see that the map occurs in three different locations, which is redundant--you'll have to update all three.  I will also try to get rid of the redundancy.   No time right now...  Maybe this weekend.

Hey,

I tried it, but I run into a problem with the days.

Code: Text [Select]

1. dayMap := Map(
2.             "Sun", "Su", "Mon", "Mo", "Tue", "Tu",
3.             "Wed", "We", "Thu", "Th", "Fri", "Fr", "Sat", "Sa"
4.         )
5.  
6.         shortDay := dayMap[currentDay]

My computer is in dutch, so friday is "Vr"

It crashes because "Vr" is not fount in dayMap

Why are you using a shortday and not a daynumber?

Announce Your Software/Service/Product / I built iPhotron — a local photo manager with non-destructive editing

« Last post by ToniZhao on January 17, 2026, 12:05 PM »

Release
I’ve just released iPhotron (Entirely developed by myself as free and open-source software.), a desktop photo manager that brings a macOS Photos–like experience to Windows—focused on local libraries, non-destructive editing, and long-term photo ownership.

iPhoto is built for people who want to browse, organize, and edit their photos locally, without cloud services, subscriptions, or accounts.

This release improves overall responsiveness and completes a more coherent workflow across browsing, editing, and location-based exploration—while always keeping your original files untouched.

What the app does
Browses photos directly from your existing folders (no import step)

Non-destructive photo editing (all edits are reversible, originals stay unchanged)

Map view that shows where photos were taken using GPS metadata

Smart library views like All Photos, Videos, and Favorites

Supports paired photo/video assets (e.g. Live Photo–style files)

Everything runs fully offline:

No AI

No cloud services

No accounts or telemetry

Platforms
Windows: ready to use

Linux: supported, but currently requires manual build

The project is open source, free to use, and still evolving.

I’d love feedback from people who want a local alternative to cloud photo apps, especially those who care about editing, organization, and long-term photo storage.

General Software Discussion / Re: How to edit a titlebar from a dll?

« Last post by Alexander Savage on January 14, 2026, 10:45 PM »

That's a tricky one! Editing a DLL's title bar permanently can be a real pain. Since you've tried the usual methods, maybe the title isn't directly stored as a simple string. Could it be dynamically generated or pulled from another resource within the DLL? Have you considered using a resource editor specifically designed for Windows DLLs? Sometimes those can reveal things a hex editor misses. Makes me think of games like Snow Rider 3D, where the title is just a small detail but so important for the experience! Good luck – hope you crack it!

Great! I just downloaded this.
Unfortunately, an error message appeared. (see attachement) Is there something, I can do?
