I'm away at a three day music festival from today for my fiance's daughter's fianc's stag weekend, no point trying to write any more code for a while then. :sarcastic:
I kicked off my new baby from vvhgs's fab vvScreenShot to be the journalling tool I want for the coming year. Three weeks and exactly 5k lines of C# later I need a breather, but hell it's been fun, and I can't currently break it apart from all the bugs I know about. :pcguru:
It is now multi-chart, supports group/trade named year/month/day folder storage and logs locally and/or to futures.io (formerly BMT). It automatically opens results in image viewers, text editors, web browsers as wanted and has cut/copy/paste of charts to/from clipboard. Imported clips (of any image data e.g. excel columns, external images) can be scaled and either stuck to a price/time or auto-aligned to a chart panel location.
It can run timed or event driven saves, maintains a scrollable list of threads to post into (taken from a simple copy/paste from any futures.io (formerly BMT) thread url) and, for images only, supports a parallel desktop drag/drop auto-upload folder, which also converts any jpg/bmp/gif files to png before uploading. The latter provides a url file list that can be pasted into the post form textbox or any active browser post as normal, thereby bypassing the upload dialog manager, though only image embedding is provided, not thumbnail attachments.
Multiple Alt-keys for all options (Save/Upload/Post/PostPic/PostText/Log/DoNothing :)) are always available if enabled, and the chart button now provides auto-tooltip hover, visible in any charts belonging to the same named window group.
I still have a lot of stuff on the todo (later this year e.g. futures.io (formerly BMT)5.0) and want (maybe next year e.g. NT8) or never lists and a few on the need (this month) list (e.g. clip storage and retrieval, testing, bug fixing), but I think it's at least ready for a 'please bash an Alpha release' and corresponding detailed post next week. No point now as I hope to be unresponsive, but I may take the Chromebook just in case the music's rubbish...
