Doctor_Fruitbat posted:The bookmark list is sometimes getting 'caught' on my phone when attempting to scroll - as in it'll prevent me from scrolling up or down when I flick, with the list moving slightly in the direction I want then snapping back, just like when you try to scroll past the top or bottom of the list. If you're talking Windows 10, then it's a ScrollViewer bug in the control framework. You can replicate it outside of my app in other ones that do similar things to do pull to refresh (including their sample for making their version. Mine has slightly different xaml but the principle being used is the same) So either it will get fixed in a later build of Windows 10, or it won't. But there's not much I can do other than not have pull to refresh.

I tried to submit a new APPX to the store a few days ago, but it failed certification. For whatever reason, Microsoft thinks one of my store logos is not the right size (63x63 instead of 64x64), so it failed. It passed the Visual Studio cert on my computer, so I don't know why it failed on their site  .But while I talk with them to try and figure it out, I did fix a few more things.  You should be able to hide the sidebar now. I also fixed more of the CSS in the thread view (People with no avatars should not have blank spaces by their names, quotes should actually look decent.) as well. Also included is the ability to log out again and a simple check when starting to app to see if you need to reenter your login credentials. So I'll try again and see if I can get this update out to everyone. Edit: Screenshots from Lumia 1520

There are two things at play with the webview, depending on the device. On the phone, normally, if you go from the thread list view to a thread, you're actually going to a new thread specific page. If you're on the desktop, you have the thread list and thread side by side, UNLESS you shrink the window view in which case you're getting the phones master/detail view. On the 1520, if you hold it vertically you're getting the master/detail two page view. If you hold it horizontally you have enough room so it shows the same view as on the desktop, side by side. Those are two different webviews with no knowledge of your place in the thread, hence it "redrawing". But even if they were the same webview, your place would still be kinda lost because that's just how the webview works in general; it does not hold exact location of what you were looking at. You can try it on a Windows Tablet. Now, I could track where you are in the thread and then, on rotate, fire some javascript to get you back to that specific post. And that might be what I do. I'll think about it. BTW I'm also adding more Cortana support, for Bookmarks and PMs.

nielsm posted:Eh, now I can't get the app to display just the list of bookmarked threads. It's either split view or only posts. Still on a tablet in vertical 800x1280 mode. I got a Lumia 640, and I didn't realize that when u held it horizontally, it would go into the split view. I thought that was only for the 1520. I'm going to revert that change, which should fix your issue.

nielsm posted:Having a toggle between split view and dedicated views for forum index/bookmarks and thread view is probably good, I could definitely see myself wanting to switch between them when using the app on my HTPC. But I can't see wanting to use split view ever on a small screen device (less than 10" or so?) in portrait orientation. You're right. I'm not getting rid of the side button, but I'm just changing the defaults so that you should not see that view in those instances, on phones or screens of those sizes.

I'm going to push a new update out to the store. It has a ton of little bug fixes I've made since the last update, and some new features. Including the stuff I've talked about above, like showing your name in quoted messages. I also added jump list support, so now you can add your favorite forums directly into the shortcut of the app. And I also have nice "Open Bookmarks" and "Open Private Messages" feed buttons there too.  This only works if you're on threshold 2, so you have to be updated to the newest stable build of Windows 10 to get this update.

Not getting rid of pull to refresh, because I use it. Honestly I don't think it has anything to do with what I was doing anyway because I could reproduce it without that code and in separate projects (less frequently, but I could catch it on the rebound when scrolling from the bottom of a listview). And I've seen the same behavior when using Microsoft's pull to refresh approach in their GitHub samples and in the official Twitter app. So... yeah, don't know. Don't really care. I changed it to a different approach that is a bit more fast and loose with how it handles compression when pulling down the top of the list (as in, it does not do it) so it probably won't catch. I think it's shittier, but whatever. Drastic Actions fucked around with this message at 23:11 on Nov 23, 2015 |

Pushed a new update to the store. Should fix a few issues people have been having.
Expect to see a store update in the next 24 hours. EDIT: And while I'm here, a list of things I'm looking at. Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Latest update work great on 640, so thanks for that. Three requests, if possible: Favorite smilies are a thing I can do, although the search field should persist, so you can search for them there, then click on the search results when you need one. At some point I'll add it, but I'm thinking of different ways to make accessing this stuff easier. The video stuff is because the WinRT UWP webview, and there's not much I can do about it. That's just how it handles HTML5 videos from what I can tell. I can handle the UI to hide other fields if you full screen a video, but it will require a big rewrite to make that work. So yeah, don't expect that any time soon. Sorry Drastic Actions fucked around with this message at 21:11 on Nov 28, 2015 |

Sekenr posted:First time running - failed to download forums list. Refresh forums list does nothing, so is restarting the app. Apparently there is no way to get forums list now Authentication failed. The app tries to use the jump list on the main forum page to populate the forums list in the app. Since authentication failed, that jump list does not exist. So it can't parse anything. Your best course of action is to uninstall and reinstall the app, which should get you in a fresh login state so you can try again. Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Also, what the hell is AdBot? Usually it isn't there at all, then once in a blue moon I'll open the app to find that every dozen or so posts is from AdBot consisting of nothing but photos of people's grandmas. It seems like it coincides with the app deciding it can't refresh my bookmarks list, necessitating a full reinstall, but that may have been a coincidence. It's happened about three times over the past few months. You also lost authentication. AdBot is what is shown when you go to the forums and are not logged in. That also breaks bookmarks since... yeah, you're not logged in. So reinstalling the app fixes it, since then you... log back in, which gets you a fresh cookie. Speaking of that, I'm going to push a hotpatch right now to fix logging in and out. The technical reason is here but the TL;DR is that the app was caching authentication in a place I didn't expect, so I was not clearing it out right. Now I know how to do it properly, so the "log out" feature on the main page should actually work. So expect an update in the store soon, whenever it finishes certification.

DaWolfey posted:Would it be possible to do a sort of infinite scroll for a thread? When you get to the bottom, it loads the next page (if there is one) and adds it to the end - with something in between to say that you're now reading page x Possible? Yes. Would I do it? I don't think so. If I did something like that, it would be how the iOS app handles it. When you hit the bottom and keep pulling, it will load the next page or reload the current page if you are on the last. That makes sense to me. But just adding more posts to the current web view without loading a new page, apart from exploding the memory usage if you're in a thread with a lot of pages, is a weirder workflow to me.

https://twitter.com/drasticactionSA/status/688767935792435200 This is going to be a huge update. Memory usage is vastly improved over the last version. Now it uses around 120 megs on average when viewing threads, verses highs of 500 megs or more when viewing multiple threads in the last version. This is mostly do to making the thread view a disposable control, rather than having it hard coded into each view or separate page. Basically any time you see a thread, it's the same code running it, and when you leave the thread, it actually goes away, freeing up memory. I also fixed continuum support so it should actually work correctly instead of accidentally just happen to work. And by getting that working, it should vastly improve suspending the app and maintaining state. Right now in the current version of Awful, it does not really maintain state. If the app goes into suspension, it might maintain your location, or it might not. It's up to Windows. This time I did a total rethink on how it actually works, so now it tries to maintain what you're doing at any time, and reloads if you leave the app and come back. So if you're on a thread, you leave the app for awhile, and come back, it should show the exact same thread you were on. Same if you're on the Bookmarks list: Just leave and come back, and it will be there. The biggest change is you don't have to sign in to use the app anymore. Just like the normal forums on the web, you can browse forums that are not behind the paywall. And if they are? You get redirected to a paywall page telling you to sign up. I also fixed logging in and logging out, so now when you "log out", you actually do . I also fixed the thread preview and previous posts feature when making replies, so now it uses the same thread parsing to show what you would see in the app, rather than some weird mix of old SA and my app. I plan on releasing this as a beta, because I'm still work on adding more features back from the last version. Things like SAclopedia are not running yet, but not many people used it anyway in the last version so I might not bother. User profiles (Previous posts, rap sheet) are not implemented yet and there are no custom themes for other forums. But the memory handling alone should be enough to make people happy, and keep the app running for longer. If anyone is on the beta list, you should be getting it soon, maybe in a few days. If you're not and you want in, just PM or contact me and I'll add you to the list.

So I've pushed an update to beta update to the store. But it turns out Beta releases have changed in Windows 10. Instead of using the email list, as with Windows Phone 8.1, you need to give out promo codes so people can download your app. You get 250 codes, which is more than enough for this. I don't want to make the app public yet, since I'm still working on it and it has some pretty breaking changes from the last version. So if you want in, message me somehow (email, PM, whatever) and I'll give you the code. Then you should be set for future updates of the beta.

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Postin' from the new app. The landscape view works "okay" on my 950XL, but it's not done. It's hard because I either need to get it working on all devices, or limit it to big ones like the 950 XL. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about it yet. And I know about the threads not refreshing after new posts/edits. The same applies to new threads. I need to come up with a way to know what was the last page and to refresh what was on it (if necessary). The flow for how this happens is very different from how the old app functioned, so I just need to think of something.

 Adding pull to refresh support, and hopefully pull down to go to next page. Also adding better Imgur support. Now it supports logging into your account, so instead of just dumping imgur links, you can upload them to your account. There are also API limits to anonymous downloads, so this should get around those limits, should we ever hit them (we probably won't )

that ivy guy posted:two things seem to be broken for me: can't navigate the forums home page (just shows the categories), and bookmarks do not show any unread posts (if I could see other forums they would probably be like that too). from other screenshots here it seems like this is only a problem to me? anyways, I'm using the windows 10 version on mobile if that helps. Thanks For the unread bookmarks, go to your forum user control panel settings and enable "Highlight threads I've seen in a different color" For the forum categories, basically the proper web forum jumplist (which is what's used to parse the forum categories/subforums) was hosed up last week. The iOS and Android apps had the same issues with getting a bad mix of data from them. In the newest version of the app (In beta, PM me for a key), that list is prepopulated with my own list. And once you log in, you can refresh it on your own to get the newest version. Your best course of action there is uninstall and reinstall. Or PM me for a key to the beta app, which fixes these issues and more! --- While I'm here about that. I did have an update to the beta I planned to release, but VS was giving me issues with my Imgur library, so it would not let me compile it for the store. While I work on that, once I fix it, I may just update the beta app directly to the store. While it has issues with landscape, I think the memory fixes and suspension fixes more than make up for the features that would be missing from it. And I can always add them back if there is demand for it, like forums search.

that ivy guy posted:yeah hook me up with the beta. (on another note, opening your profile via avatar gives an out of range error. wtf) I did do a reinstall earlier to remove my settings from the old windows 8 mobile app, which didn't help much Honestly that profile page was never really finished anyway. I mean, it "worked" in that it opened a page (and trust me, getting that information that IS on the profile page is a bitch. All of the HTML is malformed and I have to hack around it to parse it, so I would not be shocked that it fails. It's not implemented in the beta yet for that reason.) And also uninstalling the Windows Phone 8.1 version would not do anything, because the way they stored data is totally different and not used. So if you upgraded, it would just overwrite everything that was there. In this case, it would not have done anything for you. And again, you issue with the forum list is fixed in the new beta, just not in the build you have that's on the store currently.

I've been making some more changes to the app.  First, common features like adding bookmarks or going to the last page in the thread are back in on the list views.   I've also adding an option for removing the background (the gray, blue ones) from thread lists and forums. Looks a little nicer to me. I've also shifted the top bar for threads and forums (meant to show if a forum was a sub-forum, or if a thread was sticky or a bookmark.) to the side. This gives a bit more room, so you can have even more threads on one screen at the same time.

I've submitted a new beta to the store (3.4.15) to the store. This should be the last beta before pushing this to production. While it does not have all the features that the other version had, I think the stability and speed more than make up for it. Especially the suspension and hibernation stuff that actually works. The two biggest bugs that I know of are: * A crash when navigating from Bookmarks to the Main forum threads. This happens infrequently, but it seems to happen once the app has suspended and restarted in bookmarks, and THEN you navigate to the other threads. I can't quite pin this one down yet, since I can't reproduce this when debugging. * The transparent background setting is set to off by default, yet it's still on by default. To workaround this, just go into settings and turn it on and off again. Then it should stick. The biggest changes beyond what I mentioned in the post above is that I did more refactoring with the underlying code. Basically I took out some forked libraries I was using and now use the official versions, since they now have the functions I need to get this app working. The top toolbars will also use your systems accent color on Windows 10 desktop and phone. Landscape mode is also a bit off still, and there may be little bugs around, but no regressions that I know of. Let me know what you think!

Uninstall and reinstall. I had to change how the cookie container and database worked, which caused the container to not be reset. Uninstalling and reinstalling should fix it.. And his should be the only time you have to do this, logging out and logging and updates should work correctly from here on. This will probably happen to all beta testers, but it's only 20 of you or so, so I figured it was worth a breaking change. Sorry for forgetting to add that.

I removed all of the actual SA forum specific JavaScript and CSS, which might be causing those emote issues. I also removed the timg support (because it was taken directly from the forums and broke in some versions of the webview, making it unreliable) so images should be responsive to the edge of the view. So I'll need to look at that.

CharlesM posted:Is there a thread for the phone 8.1 version? Does anything happen with that version? I don't update it anymore. All effort is in the Windows 10 UWP. While I understand that leaves people on older phones behind, it's easier than trying to maintain multiple versions on vastly different codebase. Also, I'm basically the only one who works on this app. I don't have time for 8.1 anymore. Having said that, if anyone has a massive interest in maintaining it, the code is open source. But yeah, I'm full steam ahead on Windows 10.

Been working on more major changes to the app. I put the iOS/Windows thread icons back, instead of using the forum defaults. They didn't load consistently and I was sick of dealing with it. These look nicer anyway. I fixed TIMG support, so it's back. I redid how thread posts are shown. Before it was done basically with massive string interpolation and formatting. It was a mess and really hard to debug, and could also be slightly CPU intensive. Well, now it's using Razor templates. So it should be quicker and take less power to use. By redoing it I also fixed the "Show previous posts" button not showing at random times. I also fix theme support while there, so YOSPOS should have its proper green look back. I fixed PMs, so they should actually appear again. I also redid now those were displayed as well by replacing its formatting with Razor. The best part of changing how threads are rendered is now it should work crossplatform with the iOS and Android versions I'm working on the side. So now it should be consistent(ly awful) on all platforms. And a bunch of other smaller changes I don't remember .Doctor_Fruitbat posted:One other issue though, I can't navigate back to the first page of a thread, either using the previous page button while on the second page or manually selecting the page I want to view; it just reloads the current page. The only way to do it is to mark the thread as unread, then navigate back into the thread from the bookmark list or main page. This was fixed too. Had some confused logic for handling page numbers, and it should be working correctly now. Edit: Mobile screenshots

Crumps Brother posted:Got the new Awful update. Now it crashes out on the splash screen for me. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but it still does it. I'm on a Lumia 950 with AT&T. Sorry if I sound complainy. I just wanted to keep you fully informed. FTJ posted:Same for me. It works well, and looks great, on my Windows 10 pc but it stays on the splash screen for ~10 seconds before exiting Again on my Lumia 930. Looking at my analytics data, I don't see any crashes so I'm not sure why it's failing to launch. I'm not sure if it's my app or Windows 10 taking a poo poo on it and not telling me. The only time I had something similar happen was on Insider builds when I deployed the app, and I had to restart the phone to get it to work. This version should not using old Awful database and settings files, so that should not be the issue. I do have an update in certification right now. It does not have anything specific to crashing at the splash screen (Because again, I can't reproduce it.) but maybe that'll fix it? What OS version are you running? Production, Insider Builds? I've only tested the app on the newest fast ring insider build and SDK 10586 (The current production one) So yeah, try restarting the phone. I'm hoping it's just that Windows 10 build you all are running is being stupid rather than the app, because I don't see anything obvious as to why it wouldn't launch. Sorry Mecca-Benghazi posted:Awesome update for mobile and tablet. 1. As said above, I have not seen it. Beyond the Insider Build not launching the app and I needed to restart my phone (Note that other UWP apps, but not all, did the same thing. So it was the Build rather than my app specifically). I really have not seen this happen. And I'm willing to bet that if you deploy from VS, you don't see it either. 2. Fixed. Template10 issue with the SystemAccentColor. Right now I'm going to hard code it because it's inconsistent as to what color it gets. Your system color, or the default. 3. Template10 bug. I have a master/detail control I'm using to show the thread list and the thread. Both use PageHeader controls. But Template10 will throw a null exception on the page header in the thread view because it's in a UserControl, not a page, which does not call OnApplyTemplate, which does not set up a Spacer control (AKA the thing that spaces out the text for the hamburger menu) which causes it to crash. For now I just forked the control and try catched out that error, but it causes the spacer for the thread header to sometimes not adjust correctly. If this happens, just rotate your phone and it'll reset. I hope either I or them will come up with a proper fix soon. 4. Currently that's expected behavior (This basically is what the iOS awful app does) but I'm not sure it's going to stick like that. Unless you're saying that the button goes away and is not showing the previous posts automatically in which case that's news to me. 5. That's due to a Master/Detail control I forked and modified for this app and probably due to my lovely math is not resetting the layout. It should work correctly in Window Mode if you drag it around. I have seen this from time to time. Best bet for right now is restart the app. I have to rewrite more of that control to actually work consistently. Send all PRs to AwfulRedux (AwfulForumsRepo is there for legacy reasons, but I don't use it). I'm more than willing to take any PRs and everything is fair game. The only thing I would say is that if you want to work with the thread view, you need to install Xamarin Studio and open the AwfulWebTemplate solution. VS does not generate the razor templates correctly in the non-web project, but XS does. It will compile file in VS, but it won't update changes to the code behind.

Okay, so I think I know the problem, and it has to do with the new "What's New" feature breaking on release builds for some builds of Windows 10. None of my devices break on it, but the emulator does... sometimes... okay once. So I tweeked it and I think it's okay? But again, I'm not sure. It's not happening for everyone as far as I can tell. It's not for me, that's for sure So I opened up the beta for everyone. It's (nearly) the same build as what's out there, but slight older. Hopefully this one works for now. I've also uploaded the current release appx and the last debug build on my OneDrive, which can be sideloaded. Here is a guide on how to do it via the device portal. Again, I'm sorry for any issues. It seems to be okay for most, at least it worked for the 20 or so people in the beta as far as I know. So I did not foresee any issues with it for the normal launch. But of course, that happens, and I want to get something working as soon as possible. Hopefully the current build in certification will also fix it, but I won't know until at least Tuesday. EDIT: Also if anyone is wondering why I can't see the crashes in the developer portal  None of them work! No matter the browser or platform, it never loads.

Smoke posted:Dunno if it's a bug with Windows or the app, but on the current and previous Insider Builds I've had the Live Tile stop updating and bookmarks not refreshing in the background. The only solution that's worked so far has been to uninstall and reinstall, after which it acted normal again, unpinning or logging out and logging back in did nothing. Background data is enabled for the app, and the settings in the app itself appear to be correct too. Live tiles not updating is a from me at the moment. Turning it off and on in settings should force the background process to clear and restart. I've not had my app do that (to the best of my knowledge, it's showing the right data at the moment, but I've had Aeries not update before, showing the same twitter images. It could be an OS level thing. I could put something into settings to clear them out fully to see if they start updating after that.Currently the release version is one ahead of beta. Pushing out multiple APPX packages to the store is a pain in the rear end, so I'm not sure how I'm going to handle release/beta channels. At some point I might try to automate and package builds into a nightly build site, but  .

Uploading a new build to the store. Stable channel.Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Also a highlight colour for when you're quoted in a post. Highlights were there, but I broke it with my new thread templates. It's fixed. Hiding previous posts is working for me, so maybe it's a forum setting you're missing. Make sure you have "Mark posts on pages I've already seen in a different color" turned on in the web forums settings. Smoke posted:Turns out the live tile thing is an issue with the current build, I've seen people report it for various other tiles and it's a bit random. I've also had it happen to the Photos tile occasionally. This might be working better in the new builds? powderific posted:I feel like the app could use a better way to delineate threads that have new posts in the bookmark pane; same for opened but not bookmarked threads in the regular forum browser. Maybe a highlight color or something with font weight. Posts are already in different colors for those you've seen and opened. For those you've seen you have the counter on the right for how many posts. I could add yet another color to show those posts that you've ready before, but have no updates, but honestly I'm fine with the system right now and don't think yet another color would help. I'll play around with it, maybe make it an option.

Anonymouse Mook posted:11.3.2.0 seems quite unstable to me. I have had a lot of occurrences where I get dumped back to Start when opening a thread from my bookmarks. I'm running public build 10.0.10586.420. You can always look at the specific build in the settings, about screen. Yeah, it was updated. I'm guessing the gif animations are causing the crashes. So when you enter threads, go between pages, you'll see it. And that's probably what's causing the issue. I don't know why. Because it works for me .I'll take it out for now and replace it with a loading circle. I'll wait for the anniversary update I guess, since that has native gif support.

Cybernetic Vermin posted:The smiley throbber put a smile on my face You can thank spanky the dolphin and the iOS project for it. They are the ones who let me use it. I've pushed a new build to turn it off for now, though. For most users it seems to be working fine, but there are a few where it crashes a lot on them. It's not worth having nice throbbers when it throws errors, so I will probably have to wait to use them .

Kazy posted:Would it be possible to have the avatars on the left of posts in large screens? It already does (EDIT: Or did at one point, it was meant to ), it's just that the ratios for moving the columns is off. So if you are on a desktop with a big monitor and make the app full screen, it should show the avatars on the left, but at more normal sizes (like on tablets) it's still in mobile mode.I've been making adjustments to that template which should help fix those issues.

I'm uploading a new update to Awful that should add some nifty new bug fixes (and probably bugs ). The updates to the thread web views are in, as well as new thread icons and better handling of thread replies. and while it didn't make the cut for this release (because I just added it), gang tags should also be coming soon.  You would only see them if you have enough space to do so. So desktop, tablet, and Xbox. The other platforms would default to the mobile view, which hides it. EDIT: Should say it also adds avatar titles, not just gang tags. Drastic Actions fucked around with this message at 21:21 on Aug 12, 2016 |
