Turns out I had a glitch I didn't notice with my github client, and no updates were making it to main for some time now. So if you happen to have installed Navigator by cloning the repo, now would be a good time to update. Some improvements that have happened:
1. I completely did away with the stack and card menus, replacing them with a single Target menu (indicated by a bullseye). It lists every stack with a submenu that includes things like Go (goes to the stack), Toplevel (Toplevels the stack), Card List and Background List, and further submenus for the cards and backgrounds, allowing you to focus on any of them. This fixes several small issues with the previous stack and card target menus. Remember that Navigator can display multiple targets if you hold down the Shift key while choosing a target -- you can have as many as you like, subject to performance limitations. Note: if anyone finds this menu to be too slow, let me know -- it does count through all cards and backgrounds of every stack, but in my experience unless you're dealing with literally tens of thousands of cards it should be fine. I could write some sort of caching algorithm and make updates manual -- or something, I haven't thought about it too much. 2. I improved the The MouseStack targeting functionality. I don't know what I was thinking before with the usability of the click, or long-click, on the menu. So at this point the menu is just a menu -- select "the mouseStack" on the menu and you get the pointer bullseye, then click over whatever target you like to select it in Navigator. 3. I switched to the merge function for the custom list display string. This opens up a ridiculous set of possibilities if anyone cares to really dig in. If you find any bugs let me know. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
