The Making of Prince of Persia by Jordan Mechner
https://www.amazon.c...trated/dp/0578627310

Screenshot - 5_18_2020 , 12_51_55 PM_thumb001.png

"Prince of Persia" was a pretty influential computer game for the Apple II and original IBM PC that game out in 1989 or so..

This book collects the journals and notes of the 19 year old kid who made the game.  Filled with little anecdotes of the time, etc.

Great stuff.

Screenshot Captor has a clipart section -- you can select it from the toolbar.  From there there are a number of different sets of numbers and "step #" items you can drag and drop.

HOWEVER, I will say that it's not quite a easy as you are wanting, and as easy as it should be.

This is high on my todo list -- I'm thinking a much easier way to add these step images and set the sizes of them..

Great list of board games in different categories that are suitable for online play.

leaves and I fixed the bug!
It was caused by a bug in my code that was trying to pad out icons to 32bit boundary when storing them.  It must be an unusual system configuration where that is needed I think, so it wasn't affecting most people.

I have uploaded a new version of LBC to the official download location: https://www.donation.../launchbar-commander

You could try UrlSnooper.. go guarantee it would work but worth a try.
708
Great, thank you !  This must be a strange error since it's happening so often for you but doesn't seem to be affecting others..  I'm excited to figure out what it is :)

ps.
I uploaded a new debug version that logs more info, so before you run tests make sure to redownload the latest debug version.
709
I've send you a private message on the forum with link to debug version.
710
Can you try this for me just to see if it gives any more clues:
Open up your LBC configuration and select some node you don't care about.
Now drag and drop a file onto the ICON IMAGE.. Normally this has LBC replace the node icon with the one representing the file you've dropped.  I'm just curious if that also causes an error when you drop pdf/text files onto it.
711
Tried dropping text files, got the same access violation. Tried dropping exe files, works perfectly.

How strange!  Loading the info from EXE is much more complicated and prone to problems then loading form normal files, so this suggests to me it must be a bug in LBC somewhere that just isn't showing up for most people for reasons unknown.
It could be related to a security program blocking access to the files -- or something else.

Let me make a debug version of LBC that tries to identify where the problem is -- I'm sure we can figure this out.

Nice!  :up: :up:
713
And you're using the latest version of LBC?

Can you try this: download the portable version and unpack it somewhere and run it (exit your normal LBC); that will give you a new file.
Try dropping adding the pdfs to that new bar.  Let's see if it happens right from the start.
714
Sorry, somehow I missed this original post.
I can add a pdf node and click on it in configuration dialog without error.

Which makes me wonder if it's something about the pdf file or the configuration in LBC that is making it confused.  Still makes it an LBC fault but I need more clues to try to figure out the nature of the problem.

If you drop a new different pdf file (one made a different way ideally), onto the config, does it have the same problem?

In your photo the command path looks like its not set -- I wonder if that's a clue.

If you can figure out any more clues as to when this problem happens let me know.

We need more posts in this thread!

I really like this guy's videos on how technology works -- he does a good job of explaining interesting issues:

I'm thinking our next zoom meeting will be on June 4th at 2am forum time.

Of those I played some of the Deus Ex series, which was very good.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Some thumbnails only show an icon
« Last post by mouser on May 08, 2020, 06:21 PM »
i dont think so, but in SC MoveTo menu at the bottom it will give you the option to let it file all your older screenshots in the thumbnail panel into subfolders based on date.

This may be a problem with windows itself not refreshing its thumbnail cache.  I remember this happening in the past and being fixed by a reboot.

Try this:
1. first make sure the error is still happening
2. Assuming so, post a screenshot of your rules in CHS
3. And then try another rule for excel like the first, but this time reject CF_ENHMETAFILE.
4. Problem persists then show me another screenshot of your rules.
725
Unfortunately, that's not a good solution, as that will tell CHS not to even bother trying to capture the extended clipboard formats that hold the most useful formats for excel.
