« Last post by AbteriX on August 21, 2006, 12:46 AM »

Thank you for this new build.

1.)
> Better support for old fashioned folder nodes (click to open in file explorer)
How should this work? I didn't see any effect when i click on an folder from an menu?

2.)
With 1.55.02 the About dialog didn't appears anymore?
Starting the 1.54.02.exe i can access the About box.

Excuse me if i am in the wrong forum. Please feel free to move this topic if so.


I just found this helper in the KMPlayer forum:



There are  new quote buttons:
- select text an use this as an quoting, as many as you like to use.

This is quit easy 

Maybe we can have this feature here too?

Screenshot Captor / Re: Scripting to be added to Screenshot Captor

« Last post by AbteriX on August 11, 2006, 10:46 AM »

back to topic
i have a few questions to be up to state:

1. i don't like to script SC in OOP, that's sounds i have to wrote a lot of code
to e.g. put an border around an image ?
Can we have some scripting code examples for imagine please?

2. again, what means to use e.g. LUA... i would need my
SC to come with me on my USB-Stick.
I don't want/can't install a language on all PCs.....or can i use LUA 'stand alone'?
And how big would e.g. the LUA folder be?

Again, why not VBS with an captor.dll as 'API' .....(i don't know if i use the right terms)
I think WSH is on the most PCs standard?

Can't we use a portable scripting language like AHK or AutoIt?

Screenshot Captor / Re: Scripting to be added to Screenshot Captor

« Last post by AbteriX on August 10, 2006, 05:58 AM »

I have decided to add a scripting facility to Screenshot Captor.

-mouser (August 10, 2006, 01:58 AM)

Fine.

It's just a heads up for people who want to add suggestions related to this,
and so there is time to debate about this new feature.

-mouser

I like to see a few (~3 or 5) "quick launch buttons" to execute a few preferred scripts.
Or an drop-down box: click on the arrow - hoover the mouse over an script name and click it.

  I havent decided whether to use an existing language like lua or python, or go some other route.

-mouser

Must i install smtg for this? Why not VBS?

Mark's Sysinternals Blog

Tools remains free.

Mark talks about his first week at M$:
(sounds like to be a big company, thoose M$? Meeting, meeting, no eMail address...)

Monday, July 31, 2006
...I’m pleased to report that Microsoft’s number one priority is not only keeping
the tools freely available, but preserving the Sysinternals community including the newsletter,
the forums, and my blog. While we’re still brainstorming how to make this successful in the
long term, I’m pleased to announce the first step in the transition, which is the introduction of
 a new Sysinternals EULA, that I believe is even more permissive than the EULA in place
before the Microsoft acquisition, since it allows for wider use of Sysinternals utilities within a
company....

-Mark

One of the most frustrating aspects of the first week is that I still have no working Microsoft email account.

-Mark

Probably of most importance, however, is the outcome of the various meetings

For our german readers (and thoose how wanna proof there skil in german language  )
das schreibt die PCWelt dazu:
http://www.pcwelt.de...are/53259/index.html

Nach Microsoft-Übernahme: Sysinternals-Tools bleiben gratisGute Nachricht aus Redmond: Auch nach der Übernahme von Winternals/Sysinternals durch Microsoft werden auch weiterhin alle praktischen Windows-Tools von Sysinternals gratis zum Download angeboten werden. Nach der Übernahme von Winternals/ Sysinternals durch Microsoft ( wir berichteten ) hatten viele Anwender im Internet die Befürchtung geäußert, dass die beliebten kostenlosen Sysinternals-Tools, wie beispielsweise der Process Explorer und Filemon , künftig nicht mehr zum Download angeboten würden. In seinem Blog gibt Mark Russinovich Entwarnung .

Laut Angaben von Russinovich ist Microsoft vollkommen damit einverstanden, dass alle bisher gratis zum Download angebotenen Sysinternals-Tools weiterhin der Internet-Gemeinde erhalten bleiben. Außerdem unterstütze Microsoft das Vorhaben, die Sysinternals-Community zu unterstützen und auszubauen. Microsoft sei sogar daran interessiert, bei der Verbreitung der Tools mitzuhelfen. So sei geplant, alle Tools von Sysinternals künftig zusätzlich auch über Microsofts Download-Service allen Anwendern zum Herunterladen anzubieten. Das böte die Möglichkeit, so Russinovich, die Download-Kapazitäten zu erhöhen. "Ich und Microsoft glauben, dass dies Microsofts Verpflichtung demonstriert, die Tools weiterhin kostenlos verfügbar zu halten", so Russinovich. Für alle Sysinternals-Tools wird auch künftig die Sysinternals-EULA gelten.

LaunchBar Commander / v1.54.02 - long time to read shortcuts

« Last post by AbteriX on August 02, 2006, 12:45 AM »

v1.54.02 - long time to read shortcuts

This is NOT related to LBC only
i have seen this from other apps too:

i have an folder with 20 shortcuts to my favored apps.
If i want to open this folder with an app like LBC
it takes several seconds (~10) to open this folder.

Perhaps you can do here smtg?

Maybe

"index" the state of the current shortcuts
in an database for an quick preview the next time
and scan the folder for newer shortcuts in the
background and display them later?

Or take this behaviour to the help if you want. Maybe
it helps others who think this is an bug of LBC.

LaunchBar Commander / v1.54.02 - minimize config dialog problem

« Last post by AbteriX on July 27, 2006, 11:15 AM »

- report FYI -

- the bar is shown
- i use context menu => Preferences
- i minimize the config dialog

The config dialog didn't minimize into the tray but very next above it in an button-size.
But into the tray there is an button too.

If i use this button to maximize the config dialog...
...the never maximize...
...but i get an "Welcome to LBC....[Configure now]"-dialog instead.

If i click on [Configure now] the old config dialog is activated....but still
minimized as an button above the tray.

I can use the maximize button of this button-sized config dialog to maximize it.

--
arrrggg, now it works as it should.
Now not, now i have the config dialog AND the Welcome dialog 
wait!...i take an screen shot...

LaunchBar Commander / v1.54.02 - Auto hide and auto slide didn't works probertly

« Last post by AbteriX on July 27, 2006, 06:20 AM »

v1.54.02 - July 26, 2006

    - test report only -  FYI

"Auto Hide" and "Auto Slide"

a)
only works once after i set it in the dialog ... means the bar disapears.
Then it apears (by a mouse click on the border of the screen?) and disapears no more.

b)
if the bar disapears, it still reserves the place, and i can't maximize an other window

c)
if the bar apears, it's hight is too less,  i can't see the icons in full, only in half.


d)
i have set an shortcut "Ctrl+Shift+L",  but the bar doesn't apears after i press this short cut.

LaunchBar Commander / Modify displayed filename with regex

« Last post by AbteriX on July 26, 2006, 12:02 PM »

minor feature request (and tip):

I have an folder full of .lnk's files. This folder i have added as folder to LBC.

The items are showed as
ProcessEx.exe.lnk
Screenshot Captor.exe.lnk
... and so on.

Can we have an option to trim this .lnk part in the view?
[ ] Trim from back: [     .lnk|.exe|.cmd]


And maybe trim "Shortcut to  "   too. (but this i can do manually!)
[ ] Trim at begin: [Shortcut of  |Verknüpfung mit  ]

LBC v1.54.02 - July 26, 2006 - testings report:

1 - now the "Save Changes"-button is reactivated after i choose an folder, i press it, and it's OK
2 - if i save with the "Save"-button in the menu it's works too

3 - even if i exit with [X] it is saved .... is this good? Properly not.

4 - BUG: after i press the "Save"-button in the menu once.... it works along, but
--- it's still greyed out, even i do an change somewhere again and again.

5 - "Hint" (between Caption and Icon) is not shown. I think i see a yellow hint with my own text?
--- "Show hints" i have unchecked for to test this.
("Hints on MouseOver" on the main page under [miscelaneous] is checked)

6 - "Show hints" should called "Show item names as hint" to differ it from the "Hint" -option above

Screenshot Captor / Re: Feature Request: Automatic Crop Image

« Last post by AbteriX on July 26, 2006, 08:22 AM »

I wanna post smtg similar:

for me the white back ground is to big sometimes:


Especially when i paste the shot into word
the image is not in line with the text (yes, i can modify this)

I think an back ground as i show with the red border above would be enought.
I think further, Thomas wants this back ground size to be "set-able".

Edit:
i use here an other bg color since this side is white too

Screenshot Captor / Re: Option to NOT save to file?

« Last post by AbteriX on July 26, 2006, 08:11 AM »

Must say again, doing a capture every second minute just now,
this auto save behaviour incommodes highly.
There is every time a short delay while saving which disturbs colossal.
(may be our favorite developer has an high end pc where this delay never happens  )

An other problem occurs
when i click on an thump on the left side...
...then my current shot is saved (ok, i set this so to do this automaticly)
but it is focused ! (i mean my current shot, i.e. it is showed again in the main window)
So i must (search and) click on the thump again a second time.
Perhaps this auto save could be done in the back ground?


Pfffttt {takeadeepbreath} sorry, just an IMHO report.
