[unknown: 9] 3-Mar-2005 [379] | We are annoyed by it also. It hits me about 2 times a week, I run 3 clients on my system most of the time. |
Ammon 3-Mar-2005 [380x4] | The before/after button in the Serach window... What is it doing in which state? |
Toggle GUI Elements have a tendancy to confuse me unless they are a radio button or checkbox where the meaning is clear. | |
You never know how the developer was thinking when he designed it... Visible text is current state, or click to switch the state that the visible text refers to? | |
Sent feedback on the date selector. It doesn't like TODAY. Switch the value to any other day and try to select TODAY, you'll pull an error 100% of the time... | |
Louis 3-Mar-2005 [384x2] | Reichart, I really appreciate AltME. It is a great application. |
I makes getting help a lot faster. | |
[unknown: 9] 4-Mar-2005 [386x2] | Ammon, yeah, I agree. We are slowly locking down what I call a "pattern language." In other words using the same UI parts the same way everywhere. |
Louis, thank you. Slowly but constantly, we move forward. | |
Ammon 8-Mar-2005 [388] | May I ask what the Depot folder and its contents are? It looks useful! |
[unknown: 9] 9-Mar-2005 [389] | LOL, yeah, info on all the directories will be coming. We are waiting for our next update before we let people start poking things. |
Ammon 9-Mar-2005 [390x2] | Ok... Patiently waiting... ;~> |
In a world as large as this one, perhaps there should be a way to quickly view Group information such as descriptions. Maybe even the ability to search the groups to see if a group relevant to your next post exists or if you should create a new group for the post. | |
eFishAnt 9-Mar-2005 [392] | what about a smaller planet, like Mars? |
[unknown: 9] 9-Mar-2005 [393] | Yeah, we are playing with something like that. |
Ammon 9-Mar-2005 [394] | Such a feature would likely be quite usefull there as well... |
BrianW 9-Mar-2005 [395] | Does AltME have a DCC file-send type of thing? |
Pekr 9-Mar-2005 [396x2] | no |
maybe upcoming major update will have, but that is question for Reichart to answer. If I understand it correctly, it will feature ability to extend AltME with other apps ... | |
BrianW 9-Mar-2005 [398] | ok, I was just wondering |
eFishAnt 9-Mar-2005 [399x2] | s |
s | |
[unknown: 9] 9-Mar-2005 [401] | We have no current plan of support DCC. We do have a plan of supporting file share on AltME, and already do on Qtask. |
Ammon 9-Mar-2005 [402] | Please put the SDK group under the REBOL divider. |
Izkata 9-Mar-2005 [403x2] | Ugh |
I want to use Worldmaster dividers with some slight changes... SO, a way to choose Worldmaster dividers, then edit them for a custom one, would be nice | |
BrianW 9-Mar-2005 [405x2] | choose custom dividers, but start with a clone of Worldmaster? |
Just trying to think of another way to phrase it :-) | |
Ammon 9-Mar-2005 [407] | Aye, I'm fairly certain that that is what the Depot folder is about and they are going to be giving us info on it soon... |
[unknown: 9] 9-Mar-2005 [408] | SDK moved. |
Ammon 9-Mar-2005 [409] | thanks |
eFishAnt 9-Mar-2005 [410] | sorry about the s's above...was keying commands to an emulator and AltME focus grabbled them... |
[unknown: 9] 9-Mar-2005 [411] | I spent a few clock cycles on them thinking it was some puzzle. then something else shiny caught my attention. |
Izkata 10-Mar-2005 [412x2] | Yep Brian, that's it. I'm gonna try something.. I was looking around the AltMe folders, and found a file that looked like all it contained were dividers. I'll copy AltMe to a new folder (backup) and copy the Worldmaster one over my Custom on |
Well, AltMe didn't error, but it didn't change any dividers, either.. oh well | |
[unknown: 9] 10-Mar-2005 [414x3] | your welcome to mess with AltME's folders....but don't cry when something odd happens. |
We plan to clean it up, and write a paper that explains it all, for example, you can actually dump all your grpahics, and then replace them all. | |
Skinning AltME is actaully pretty easy. But not fully tested. | |
[unknown: 5] 10-Mar-2005 [417x2] | I got another request that I think will be cool. Add a private option to the calendar so that it can be run in a local mode so that the data isn't shared. I would think it would be easy to add it since the calendar is already created. |
Also, any chance of getting a standalone version of that Calendar :-) | |
Tomc 10-Mar-2005 [419] | assumming the next version of alrme allows multiple worlds open, I would like to be able to set which (if any) notifies you when it gets a message posted. |
Izkata 10-Mar-2005 [420] | Reichart, I made two copies of the AltME folder just in case something did mess up ^.- |
[unknown: 9] 10-Mar-2005 [421x4] | Paul, both are planned for the future AltME. |
Tomc, yup, planned. | |
Izkata............ :) | |
note: I don't tell you guys what is planned to annoy you, just in case it was taken that way, I just try to give you feedback so you know a) I'm listening, b) if we don't have it to add it to feedbackl. | |
yeksoon 10-Mar-2005 [425] | just out of curiousity... assuming skinning is supported.. is it skinning on a world-by-world basis? |
[unknown: 9] 10-Mar-2005 [426] | no, you can skin your own view. |
Anton 10-Mar-2005 [427x2] | prefs/prefs.txt, in the main altme dir, contains an entry "skin-dir: none" |
So it looks like it applies globally. | |
