Lix Main / Re: Hardware fullscreen opens ...
Last post by Silken Healer - March 31, 2025, 07:24:37 PM
The linked thread was for an entirely separate game, I was just merely saying I liked the Windows Key + Shift + Left/Right arrow as a solution and I thought Simon should steal it.

I doubt that key combination would work at all in Lix as it's from an entirely separate game, I don't think it's a standard thing, I think it's just something from that game. But even if it does, that isn't pertinent to me as I need it for hardware fullscreen.

My primary monitor is set as my main monitor, but it isn't numbered number 1 for some reason. This is a problem I've had on Windows 10 for years. But regardless of that Lix should (a) detect via the setting wether a monitor is set as a main monitor, not via it's number and (b) should have an option for manually changing it.

In your linked thread there is an answer that says "make sure its not full screened in the settings. it has to be windowed mode for this to work", though I don't know if it's accurate.
Does the Win+Shift+left/right arrow work with software fullsceen?
Is your primary monitor called 1 in the monitor settings or a different number?

The NL V12 list has now been updated to include Festival Millas 2024. The Excel spreadsheet in the OP has accordingly been updated to reflect that and is also attached! :thumbsup:

Lix Main / Thoughts on scissors cursor on...
Last post by Silken Healer - March 30, 2025, 10:29:47 PM
The scissors cursor now shows up when you're watching back your netplay replays. Is this really intended as you're usually not going to want to edit when you're watching your netplay replays back? These are Simons thoughts on it:

Quote[2025-03-29 19:33:05] <SilkenHealer> @SimonN Just a heads up, I'm not sure if I should file this as a sug/bug topic on the forums or not, if you intended it for it I don't think it needs changing, but are you aware that you get the scissors cursor on Lix even when you're watching solobattle replays back? Is that really intended that you get the scissors in the way of the cursor when you just want to watch old multi-player battles back and you probably aren't intending to edit the replay?
[2025-03-30 23:22:41] <SimonN> SilkenHealer: " I'm not sure if I should file this as a sug/bug topic": Always file. It's not your job to guess what I think. If stuff bothers you, post.
[2025-03-30 23:23:04] <SilkenHealer> I just wanted to get your thoughts on it first
[2025-03-30 23:23:29] <SimonN> SilkenHealer: "scissors cursor on Lix even when you're watching solobattle replays back? Is that really intended" Not explicitly desired. Only a consequence of how we can edit it. Usually, you don't want to edit it, and then it is borderline misleading. I don't know what's best here.
[2025-03-30 23:23:45] <SimonN> Yep.
[2025-03-30 23:24:25] <SilkenHealer> It was just a fleeting thought, I do feel like it doesn't need filing if you intended, I'm sorry that's just my thoughts.
[2025-03-30 23:24:32] <SimonN> Sorry for business in real life. Still more stuff to do. Still many topics on LF on my backlog.
[2025-03-30 23:24:43] <SimonN> Hmm.
[2025-03-30 23:25:14] <SimonN> What was your hunch? Regluar cursor? Different cursor altogether?
[2025-03-30 23:25:21] <SilkenHealer> Prehaps I can just make a thread to discuss it, without doing it as a "proper" report with version, steps to reproduce, etc. that I've been trying to do recently for sugs/bugs to make it more detailed and easier for you.
[2025-03-30 23:25:39] <SimonN> Yes, those are excellent.
[2025-03-30 23:25:48] <SimonN> Thanks!

What's everyone else's thoughts on this?

Sorry, if it's not too much trouble, quickly have you just taken down the Wiki but not deleted the files for it yet? May you please send me my Lix article while you still have it? Even though it's not too important in the grand scheme of things, and I mostly just kind of made it as an easy article for me to talk about to get the look of some article in the flesh and maybe get the ball rolling, it would be nice if I could have a backup as I did invest some time into it articulating general information about Lix in a Wikipedia-style tone of voice that would be nice to have a local download of. No worries if you just deleted everything immediately though I don't blame you.

Quote from: kaywhyn on January 13, 2025, 12:19:56 AMAttachments in PMs don't always seem to be working consistently. I have had a few cases with some members via PM who said they've sent me an attachment of a replay, level pack, etc, only for me to find nothing was posted in the attachments section at the bottom of the message. I tell the sender that I don't see anything, and then they tell me it's odd because they're very certain they did attach it before sending the message. It's only been a problem when others have sent me an attachment. I don't think my recipients ever had a problem when I send a PM attachment. They always went through and received them just fine.

Ok, I have noticed the following with hitting "preview" when I was testing something with PMs earlier: After putting attachments, for some reason the checkboxes are ticked, meaning when you send the PM the attachments won't send because ticking them means you don't want to attach the files anymore. When clicking preview a second time, the checkboxes are now unticked. Finally, clicking preview a third time removes the attachments completely. However, if you untick any of the checkboxes after clicking preview the first time, then the next time you click preview the attachment for which the tickbox is unchecked will not appear anymore. Meaning, it will only take two clicks of preview to remove an attachment if you manually untick the checkbox for the attachment after clicking preview the first time to have them appear.

I haven't confirmed with the users who had a problem with sending me an attachment via PM not appearing for me, but maybe this is why? I'll have to ask them how many times they have clicked preview before sending. In any case, I haven't heard a problem from my recipients not getting an attachment from me, it's always been me not receiving an attachment when people send me PMs in a few cases.

Forum posts don't suffer from this problem of attachments not being sent correctly, even when clicking preview, as I guess it's different due to clicking browse in PMs whereas for Forum posts you "click or drag files to attach them."

Okay, yeah, it definitely looks like this is one of those ideas that people liked the idea of but weren't too keen on actually doing, so let's take this down now...

It looks like I needed to specifically enable it as a permission for regular users too. This is now done.
