I had a good couple of weeks prototyping a new rating service.

Full changelog: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/changelog.html

inc/dec ratings

So, under services->manage services, there's a new 'inc/dec rating' (for increment/decrement). It works pretty much like all the other ratings, and goes in the same places, but it is a simple number counter--left-click to add, right to subtract. Middle-click lets you edit directly. I've wired it up for system:rating, too, with only one oddness--since every file starts at count 0, there's no concept of 'not rated' for this service.

If you want to count how often an image makes you smile or anything else, give it a go! I mostly did this for fun, but let me know how it works out.

other highlights

The manage siblings and parents dialogs now both try to show more of the full 'chain' of related pairs as you enter new tags. The manage parents one also has a new checkbox that let's you decide if you want to really show everything, including cousins (which can be overwhelming on the bigger tags), or just (grand)children and (grand)parents. I'm planning an overhaul to these dialogs, one where they don't have to load everything on boot, and this is a first step.

I fixed my native animation renderer drawing things too small when your UI scale is >100%!

Server janitors get a nicer account modification dialog this week, and a return of the old 'superban' functionality, which deletes everything an account has uploaded. Check the changelog for full details!

next week

I'm sorry to say I'm exhausted and lagging a bit. I'll clear some small work, nothing too special!
