You can use keyboard shortcuts for a lot of the stuff though, like, selecting some text and pressing Control+B adds the bold text bbcode around it Control+I for italic, Control+L for list etc.

I do remember I was really disappointed when it disappeared. https://github.com/astral-sa/salr There is a chrome version here but it's definitely unmaintained: https://github.com/scottferg/salr-chrome

Are you on the latest version? That should have been fixed a while back, you get a warning about permissions now (and it works without them, you just can't see any custom themes you've added)

Weird! So this is what's meant to happen
Where on that list is it crashing? And what version of Android are you on? The actual version number would help, should be in About Phone or whatever

For me, it crashes when I tap the theme that I want to change to. Nexus 5X, Android 7.1.2, all patches/updates installed. e: i triggered the crash again so i could send a report. I don't think I sent one before, sorry!

Thanks for pointing it out because it looks like it's been happening for a while! e- the people getting this, do you see a normal list of themes - Default, Dark, OLED etc? Are you doing anything special before you select one, like rotating the screen or anything? baka kaba fucked around with this message at 21:09 on Aug 2, 2017 |

Yeah, I see the big list of themes. I don't think I'm doing anything funny, I just tried it again after force-closing the app in my OS settings and it still crashed. One potential interesting thing here is that, if I haven't given the "storage" permission or I turn it off, when the dialog pops up with the list of themes, the radio button by the current theme isn't "selected". When I've granted the permission the radio button is selected when the list pops up.

Normal list. But like I said it was fixed by allowing the storage permissions. OS was 7.0 on a Samsung S8. Sorry for the late response! My case may have been a little different since I mirrored my old phone and then updated all of the apps, so maybe that could be why I didn't get the notification when I updated.

Yeah it's meant to handle permissions rejection cleanly though. You don't even need permissions for the standard themes! It's only if you want the app to look for custom ones you've added yourself This is weird, I can see what's crashing it but I have no idea why it's getting in that situation in the first place. Can't reproduce it either. What the hell! Lutha Mahtin posted:One potential interesting thing here is that, if I haven't given the "storage" permission or I turn it off, when the dialog pops up with the list of themes, the radio button by the current theme isn't "selected". Unless the current theme is the top one, right? Somehow the backing values for the list aren't being filled along with the labels, which is interesting since they're done at exactly the same time

Ok so feel free to laugh at me guys, but my Amazon Fire 7 tablet is looking like this. I've searched for a way to change the layout on it, but everything I've seen says I need to root it. Do y'all have any help?quote:My phone looks like this: Edit: NEVERMIND. I'm just dumb. It only shows that for the main forum view and combines it with my bookmarks.

It lets you pick tablet or phone layout, and on a smaller device it's greyed out and says you can't have tablet mode - it should default to the normal phone layout on that case. If it's not then that needs fixing Man some of this stuff needs renaming baka kaba fucked around with this message at 19:08 on Aug 6, 2017 |

The app allows thread creation only from good posters by analyzing your prior posts. It is very advanced. Of course that means if you can't post threads...

IIRC, that means you have to change the DST setting by hand twice a year. If that's not the case, what's wrong is that it changes when the USA changes to DST, while this date actually differs per country/time zone (and is even reversed in the few southern hemisphere places that use DST). Of course the correct solution is for the world to abolish DST.
