xTaskbar and xTray Beta versions!
Posted on Thursday 25 September 2008 - 16:36:31 by Andymon
I havn't worked on the code for some time now, but the fixes/features are basically implemented!
Since there will be probably issues (especially with the still not perfect InfoTip support in xTray) i release these beta versions for testing purposes.

xTaskbar:
- Added:
Multiline Taskbar Button text (xPC Update 5 required!) (Use ButtonText with < br >)

- Fixed:
Layout Bug, with many open tasks during a recycle (Lines, MaxLines and WrapCount were involved)
Small bug with xTaskbarAutoSize and xTaskbarWrapCount

xTray:
- Added:
Better support for InfoTips
- XP Close Button
- Clicks (and parent notification) are now supported!? Needs Testing!
- Links??????? Probably not working, even if they should be visible!
- Multiple Ballontips at the same time are displayed one after another

- Fixed:
"Current State in xTray: Hidden" was always displayed in InfoTips

You can download the two beta versions here

Please report all problems! Thanks

LOSI 0.3
Posted on Wednesday 17 September 2008 - 10:24:08 by GothsSecret
I have a new release out with the following changes

* Added a new page that warns the user if he/she is trying to install LiteStep when there already is some version of LiteStep installed to the computer.
* Fixed the bug where the uninstaller would remove too much (it didn't keep the personal files even if you asked it to).
* Minor changes to the default popup menu.
* Made it possible to associate .box files with a text editor. (.box files are used by the module LSBox.)
* Localized the section selection checkboxes.
* Updated to xPaintClass 1.0 Update 5.
* Added SLI-ModuleManager to the utilities.
* Made the "WhereProfiles" page auto detects where the profiles are on the currently installed LiteStep (if there is a currently installed LiteStep).
* Fixed a bug in SectionTheme. It could overwrite existing themeslist.rc and themeselect.rc files
* When browsing for evar paths the Find File dialog will default to $PROGRAMFILES if it thinks the current path is "weird".
* SetShell would always try to set the shell to C:\LiteStep\litestep.exe no matter where you installed LiteStep under certain conditions. This is now solved.
* Made the uninstaller stay open even after it is done to allow the user to read the uninstallation log. The uninstaller closes when the user presses the "Finish" button.

And the following changes are patches I have gotten. (Thanks a lot for these patches!)

* Added release_notes.txt to the installation
* Removed the "read-only" checkbox from the evar browse dialogs
* Repositioned the gui elements on the evar configuration pages to be evenly spaced and aligned on both pages.

lslua-0.7 released!
Posted on Sunday 07 September 2008 - 20:49:58 by GothsSecret

File : http://thc.ls-themes.org/public/ls/lslua-0.7.zip

Changelog - now using Lua 5.1.4
 - i rewrote one half the code and refactored the other
 - Lslua was compiled with VS2008, so you need to install http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf (VS2008 runtimes)
 - added tracebacks to all error messages
 - lslua will never die! ( it wont stop working after an error anymore ) This means you will see *all* errors, but you might have to click "ok" alot too! 
 - the older version created a new lua thread for *every call to lslua*, which is completely pointless. It also was implemented wrong ( without any syncronizing between the threads ) so the "threads" could corrupt each other, resulting in error messages like "cannot index <some global table>, a uservalue"
 - lslua.message_box is extremely nice now and accepts 1 or 2 arguments which will be converted to strings or displayed as a type if that's not possible
 - added LSLuaErrorFile <path>: If set, errors are dumped to the file.
 - added: lsmodule.after, lsmodule.every, lsmodule.callback (see docs)
 - added: examples for lsmodule: a pointless "hello litestep" script and a fun "Memory" game (yeah, really)
 === this might break your scripts ===
 - removed the threading module ( pointless )
 - removed the timer module -> use lsmodule.timer
 - lslua.mouse returns x,y directly: use "x,y = lslua.mouse()"

Not much else to say ... if you have bugs, feature requests or questions, write to me or post them here

Are there xPaintClass Update 5 problems left?
Posted on Wednesday 03 September 2008 - 19:12:46 by Andymon
After the very first final release of xPaintClass-1.0 Update 5 were reports about a broken xPopup!

I have fixed these obvious bugs, which i have invented with the RC3 (noone has tested or discovered them) in the following 2 quick bugfix versions.

1. The measuring of the xPopup width was buggy, and the measuring of the scrolling button text in xTaskbar was buggy.
2. If a empty title in xPopup was set the resulting Popup was screen wide.

If you have downloaded xPaintClass Update 5 before 29.08.08 or from another site you should download it again from our site!

That are all problems i am aware off and that are reproducable.

About 100 people have downloaded xPC Update 5 from the download archive and probably some more of the NetLoadModule archive.
If someone has problems with xPopup, or any other module that uses xPaintClass.

Please report it here!
Thanks

This version includes a fix for a minor bug with the events(essentially you needed quotes around everything if you had any spaces in the command) and a few new bangs(!ClickonicRenameFile, !ClickonicDeleteFiles, !ClickonicCopyFiles, !ClickonicCutFiles, !ClickonicRefresh, !ClickonicExecute, and !ClickonicMoveFocus)

You can download it from http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/51925/Clickonic-1.1.2.zip and the source is available at http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/51925/Clickonic-1.1.2-src.zip
