Tool Others F95Checker [WillyJL]

What? And the window at the same resolution?
My settup is 3440x1440 and secondary 1920x1080 (which is where the checker lives) and I had to jump through hoops to even get the Changelog pane anywhere near what you're seeing.
At your resolution I don't even get cut-off lines, much less a scrollbar.

Window size is the default size. I didn't change it.

try removing the quotes

That did it, thank you!
Out of curiosity, why was that an issue?

bug: the 3rd view option is really messed up when showing game information (3rd option on bottom left corner)

Ah, you have zero labels defined.
Confirmed. Occurs when you have either no labels or only as many to cause columns to be more than 1 cell wide.

Project ATMOSPHERE's description is cut short in the info popup (perhaps due to text markdown).

Confirmed. WillyJL, looks like the parser gets thrown off by formatting. Cuts off exactly at the first bold tag.

You must have changed something, since this is what it looks like on 2560x1440 with the checker set to fill the whole screen


and default windows settings

because youre not in a shell / terminal / command prompt, this is specifying the exact executable name. there is no executable with the quotation marks and the whole path as its name

It's nothing major. The scroll bar on the right can't be clicked to move it manually. There's no bottom bar as well to move the text to the right since there's text to the right.

I can confirm the scrollbar isn't clickable, doesn't even turn red when hovering. The window does however react to the scroll wheel, even left/right scrolling, although not enough to get the end of the longest line fully in view.
You can get the end of the longest line in view however by just click-hold to select the line and dragging the mouse to the right.

Like @FaceCrap said, it's the More Info drop down when it asks to update. The scroll bar wasn't interactable in any way.

i see whats happening. unfortunately theres some bug with the specific imgui version used by pyimgui, where the mouse position is incorrect when interacting with a text input box, i think its not taking into account the padding, so the hitpoint is offset than where you actually clicked. i worked around this some time ago by spoofing the mouse position by a few pixels when inside a text input box, so clicks are in correct place, but seems like it falls apart when handling scroll bar. ill need to fiddle around with it

@WillyJL
Maybe make that pane one that can wrap?

yeah maybe. ideal would be having it use markdown syntax. but implementing one by myself is not gonna happen, and there arent any pyimgui implementations. i think imgui bundle supports it and eventually will need to switch to it anyway as pyimgui isnt really maintained anymore, but thats a huge effort and wont happen for quite a bit.

request: Is it possible to switch the position of downloaded and finished when viewing game title

and on the icon mode view (2nd one on bottom left)

would be nice to have those screens fully customizable but thats not reasonable both from implementation perspective and performace. ill make an option just to switch those 2, as the other buttons i feel like dont really have much of a reason to be moved around, while i can see the value in swapping the 2 checkboxes based on your mental model/workflow

It does, that is if you're referring to

You say it's a huge effort, are the api calls that much different? I would expect that the bulk would use the same naming conventions?

Hm for me the auto updater doesn't work. Powershell just says "Waiting for F95Checker to quit..." and I waited 15min without a change. I have the beta build.

from what i saw, the general concept is completely different. pyimgui is more similar to the typical imgui logic, your code manages the loop and window stuff. imgui bundle examples make it look like all that is handled by the library. a rough estimate is that most likely all the gui initialization and callbacks will need to be refactored from what i can tell

you were on an old beta that had a broken updater. you will need to update manually. alternatively, you can restart explorer.exe from task manager

That's what I've been trying to point out; the default window size is not full screen. I haven't fiddled with any of it's display settings.

Ah! I didn't think for one minute someone would not utilize the full desktop area. To me that's just wasting valuable screen space. Nevertheless, even though you could have gotten around it fairly simple by just maximizing the window without needing to fiddle with settings, it's an issue that needs solving.

Is there a way to bring back the older-style interface? I use the button that indicates the category at the lower left corner of the banner to quick filter a lot and I'm really missing it.

This is still a feature. If it's not working for you, you disabled it. It's an option in the settings

WillyJL Either there is something really weird going on with the Finished and Installed checkboxes, or I really don't understand what they are doing. Could you give me a rundown of what those are doing and if they have any interaction with each other?

i have already explained it on your github issue myself, FaceCrap offered you more insight, and it is well explained in the FAQ in OP as i already mentioned. i can go on repeating the same explanation but that would be counter productive for both of us

Well the behavior that I'm seeing is fucking weird, even with the FAQ. I'll pay closer attention and if i can figure out what's happening and write something coherent up I'll come back.

the tool is made for users managing games theyre playing and keep track of what they have installed and played and so on. i understand that this isnt exactly what you use it for, but youre the minority here then and i cant change the behavior yet again just for you. if you explain better what exactly is your workflow i can suggest a way to use the checkboxes in a way that makes sense for you.

from what i understand you do game ports and modding right? i would imagine you need to download games to do these things. here is what i imagine could work:
- download an update, then mark as installed (checkbox fully set), this will make the finished checkbox half set
- port and mod the version you just downloaded, then mark as finished (checkbox fully set), now youre done with this game until next update
- when an update happens, the installed checkbox will be half set, as you do not have the latest one installed
- again from the start: update it, then mark as installed
- now finished checkbox is half set, because you havent made ports or mods or whatever for this new version you just downloaded
- port and mod this update, then mark as finished, done until next update
you know which games have been updated by the half-set installed checkbox, and you know what you still need to port/mod by the half-set finished checkbox. you cant port/mod the games without downloading, so first step is downloading the update.
if you dont usually keep games installed after youre done modding them, then just delete the files after marking as finished. the tool will remember you marked it as installed and finished for that version, regardless of what files you have downloaded, thus it will still tell you about an update with the installed checkbox being half-set.

if this is not the kind of workflow you need then ill need more information to understand how to help you use it effectively
