I had a mixed week. Unfortunately some IRL reduced my work time. There's a neat new widget to play with though!

command palette

A user has written a cool widget that helps you navigate the program by keyboard. I have integrated the first version and am interested in feedback. If you have nothing on Ctrl+P for your 'main window' shortcut set, you should get it mapped to that on update.

So, hit Ctrl+P and you'll get a palette where you can type and press up/down and enter to quickly navigate to any of the pages currently open. If you are an advanced mode user, you will also search all of the menubar actions and also the current thumbnail selection menu. This latter part is unfiltered at the moment--you'll just see everything--so be careful. The system needs more polish, including filtering out these more advanced database routines, and proper display for checkbox items 'check' status, and so on.

I can do a lot more with this widget, so give it a go and let me know what you think. I think some of the labels can probably be improved, and I am sure some would like to customise it a little. If you don't like Ctrl+P, just hit up file->shortcuts->the main window and re-map it!

full list

- misc:
- fixed the recent problem with drag and dropping thumbnails to a level below the top row of pages. sorry for the trouble!
- fixed a bug where the client would not load results sorting by 'import time' when the search file domain was a single deleted file domain
- fixed a list display bug in the edit page parser dialog when a subsidiary page parser has two complicated string-match based content parsers
- collections now sort by modified time, using the largest known modified time in their collection
- added sqlite3.exe console back into the windows build--sorry, it was missing since the github build changeover!
- added a note to the help about backing up when tight on space, which I will repeat here: the sqlite database files are very compressible (70GB->17GB on default 7zip settings!), so if you need more space on your backup drive, this is a good way to reclaim it
- .
- command palette:
- a user has written a cool 'command palette' for the program! it brings up a type-and-search interface to navigate to pages or menu entries.
- I have integrated his first version and set the default shortcut to Ctrl+P. users who update will get this shortcut if they have nothing else on Ctrl+P on 'main window' set. if you prefer Ctrl+K or anything else, you can change it under _file->shortcuts->the main window_
- regular users will get a page list they can search and select, advanced users will also get the (potentially dangerous) full scan of the menubar and current thumbnail right-click menu. I will be polishing this latter feature in future to filter out big maintenance jobs and show checkbox status and similar, so if you are advanced, please be careful for now
- try it out, and let me know how it goes. the underlying widget is neat, and I can change its behaviour and extend it significantly

- (mostly advanced) deleted file improvements:
- files that have been deleted from a local file domain are now aware of their file deletion reason. this is visible in the right-click menu of thumb or media canvas
- the advanced file deletion dialog now initialises using this stored reason. if all pending deletees have the same existing reason stored, it will display it, and if they are all set but differ, this will be noted and an option to not alter them is also available. this will come up later in niche advanced situations with mutiple file services
- reversing a recent change, local file deletion reasons are no longer cleared on undelete or (re)import. they'll now hang around invisibly and initialise any future advanced file deletion dialog
- updated the thumbnail and canvas undelete mechanism to handle multiple services. now, if the files are deleted in more than one domain, you will be asked to multiple-select which you wish to undelete for. if there is only one eligible undelete service, the process remains unchanged--you'll just get a yes/no confirmation if the 'confirm trash' option is set
- misc multiple local file services code conversion work

next week

I had some success working on clever trash this week, but there's a bit more to do, and a lot of general cleanup/refactoring. An old 'my files' static reference is still used in about two hundred places, and almost all have to be updated. So I'll grind at that. I also have a whole ton of little work that has piled up. Fingers crossed, my current IRL problems clear up in a few days.

I've updated my os and now I've updated hydrus to the current release. I had no idea mojave was so old, time flies in software land. The sound on my webms still doesn't work though. As late as like 428 I had sound working, thoughts on things I could try?

Great, thanks for letting me know. For sound on your video, it may be that you have mpv now but because you once did not, hydrus reverted you back to the old renderer in the options.

Please hit help->about and see if you have mpv (it will give you a popup error if you don't). If you do, then hit up file->options->media, and for video and animation, change the 'media show action', if it is set to 'show with native hydrus viewer' to 'show using mpv'.

If you don't have mpv in help->about, let me know.

The about says "mpv: : is not currently available on macOS" and I didn't have the option to switch to mpv in the media options. I then brew installed mpv and it gives the same message in the about, but now it lets me choose mpv in the media options. However, when I choose it and try to play a video file the program hangs. Also thanks for the help with updating, I was worried my db was boned

Damn, I had forgotten that was true of the App build. I know some macOS guys who have mpv working, but they are running from source.

I'm changing tomorrow's build so it doesn't say that anymore if mpv is actually detected and loaded. Can you hit help->about in 474 sometime and let me know what 'api version' it says you have? Getting the correct versions so python side and mpv side can talk happily to each other has been tricky on Linux, I'll bet it is the same for macOS. The Windows build currently uses mpv 1.109.

Release Tomorrow! Anonymous Board owner 02/16/2022 (Wed) 05:45:05 Id: cfd93f [Preview] No.1232 del

I had a great week working on a whole bunch of little fixes and improvements.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.
