Well, frankly we are more than a bit behind.. There are just soo many pages..
One of the issues I've struggled with is dealing with url naming and maintaining a nice hierarchical organization of pages..
But we're about to get back into full swing I hope.

Find And Run Robot / Re: column to show the actual folder name
« Last post by mouser on October 15, 2015, 05:25 PM »
it's an interesting idea.. let me consider.
i could certainly resolve it in dialog shown when you edit the path.

Also, right now if you are ever curious, you can go to the Tweaks and Debugging tab and at the bottom test the resolution of any expression with % stuff like %mymusic%

It's probably that your SC is using a date format with periods in the automatic naming template, and that my code to fix up filenames happens BEFORE the date is inserted.

when you get that far, I'd love to see photo of framed print on the wall

i will absolutely take and post such a photo.

i'll also report any emails i receive from building residents asking me how this happened (i'm not going to tell anyone ahead of time just quietly swap out one of the existing paintings).

it's files with dots in their name that don't appear, for example "Screenshot 15.4" or "Screen.shot 154" doesn't get detected, while "Screenshot 154" does.

bingo.

you figured it out.. as you've discovered, sc does not like screenshot files to have dots in their names.  in fact i thought SC actually prevented files from having that name replacing periods with underscores..

regardless, ill try to get this fixed asap -- hopefully this weekend, so that sc does not make this mistake.

That's an interesting clue..

I have a couple of questions:

First, is it the filename Screenshot (1,2) that makes it show, or just that it is a NEWLY found file in that directory?  That is, if you copy other image files into your screenshot folder, do you suddenly see them?
Second, any change if you restart SC?
Third, did you happen to use recently the new feature in SC, under View ->Toggle standalone screenshot window (i once saw this kind of behavior from doing that)?

UrlSnooper / Re: UrlSnooper - EAccessViolation
« Last post by mouser on October 15, 2015, 02:27 PM »
It's possible, but i'm guessing not.. something in the back of my mind is making me think we saw this problem before..

i'm assuming you are using the most recent version.

do you have a firewall that you could maybe add urlsnooper to some allowed list?

can you try it running as administrator?

email me ([email protected]) and i'll try to get you a debug build this weekend that we can use to figure out EXACTLY where things are going wrong.

UrlSnooper / Re: UrlSnooper - EAccessViolation
« Last post by mouser on October 15, 2015, 01:56 PM »
Hmm, and you are using the normal installer version not portable version right?

maybe try this:

uninstall url snooper, then delete the C:\Program Files x86\UrlSnooper directory, then reinstall.

if that still fails, try rebooting.

UrlSnooper / Re: UrlSnooper - EAccessViolation
« Last post by mouser on October 15, 2015, 01:33 PM »
i think i just recently tested urlsnooper on win10 and it worked fine.

it may be some incompatible setting carried over from your old setup.. uninstall/reinstall does not remove old settings.

try this:
exit the app, then find the settings files -- these are normally in your documents\DonationCoder\UrlSnooper directory.

Recent article:

"Now a large study undertaken by the University of Exeter and University College London and published in the International Journal of Epidemiology suggests that the problem isn't sitting, it's not getting enough exercise, and that standing (which may be more comfortable for some people in any event) doesn't help.."

Screenshot Captor / Re: Tiny Toolbar and Screenshot Captor Options window
« Last post by mouser on October 14, 2015, 02:31 PM »
I'm afraid there is no way to enlarge the icons in the current version -- it's something people have requested -- and it's on my todo list, but currently, there is no option to resize them.

I do also see some text size oddities in you screenshot because you are using non-standard DPI settings in windows.  that is something i can try to address in a future release.

I will try to add an option to increase icon sizes, i just can't promise it right away.

« Last post by mouser on October 14, 2015, 12:33 PM »
FARR is the only application with a problematic tray menu.

If it's only FARR with this problem, maybe the skin you have set for farr or custom colors?
check the "Advanced Visuals" option in far and uncheck any custom stuff.

« Last post by mouser on October 13, 2015, 04:10 PM »
you've found a bug.

i'm not sure when it happened but i must have done something in a recent release of SC that broke the fine rotation function.

i will fix!


ps. for anyone who is wondering what this mysterious "fine rotation" function is -- it's a function you would use only when you are using SC to capture from your scanner -- it helps you straighten your scans.

Go for it -- it cannot hurt to try -- and will be a good learning experience!
Adsense is not going to turn you down.. those rules are for people running very questionable sites.

DonationCoder has always focued on free and donationware software but we have never been against the idea that software developers need to be able to find a way to make some money from their work.  There is nothing wrong with putting ads on your site, or exploring the idea of charging for your software (especially for the commercial use of it, etc.)!  Just let us know how your experiments go!

One of the very first web (flash) games mentioned on the DC forum was Samorost, a beautiful, charming, captivating, unusual, simple point-and-click adventure filled with strange alien creatures to interact with.

They've just announced Samorost 3 is coming out this year and it looks lovely:

Have you ever wondered WHY we have adopted the order of operator precedence that dictates multiplication and division happen before addition and subtraction?
There is a nice discussion of it here:
http://mathforum.org...math/view/52582.html

Like many things that we accept as "settled" -- there is an entire fascinating history and culture of debate, discovery, and disagreement underlying all of it.
