- Changes in LogFS 1.32 (7th July 1996)
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Fixed problem with dragging non-scaled sprites.
-
- Changes:-
-
- • New icon designed by Mathew Bloch. Old icons in Old!Sprite.
-
- • When dragging multiple icons it looks for a sprite called
- 'package', some users may not have this so it is also
- included in 'Old!Sprite'.
-
- Notes:-
-
- • DragASprite 0.03 (with ROS3.10) appears to have
- a little bug which means the drag position of
- icons is a bit off. Works fine with newer one's,
- I use 2.05 from Andrew Glover.
-
- • I now use two icons 'question' and 'package' which
- aren't in 3.10 (but are in NewLook and 3.50 I think),
- I have bunged them into !Sprites (a bit naughty!!).
-
- • There are a couple of problems when using Image
- Filing Systems. ArcFS does not send complete path
- names when 'renaming' within an archive, I've thought
- of a fix but not implemented it yet. Copying between
- Filing systems - LogFS loses track because it gets
- separate 'copy' and 'delete' messages.
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.30 (30th January 1996) (Not released)
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • When dragging a file with the same name as an icon on the
- card, the new file was ignored. Now the new replaces the
- old.
-
- Enhancements:-
-
- • Drag and drop icons from a card to the filer or any other
- application. Dragging to an application simulates dragging
- the actual file. Dragging to the filer copies the file.
- Shift-dragging the file to the filer moves the file.
- Shift-dragging is disabled if 'Secure' option on.
-
- • Dragging to a card stub moves the icon to another card.
-
- • Copying/Moving is done by Filer_Action windows.
-
- • New flag 'NoWindow' stops main window opening on startup.
-
- • New flag 'NoTitle' makes main window have no title.
-
- (Both these flags have to be inserted into the Settings
- file 'by hand' - no configuration option).
-
- • Clicking on an 'empty' part of the main window brings the
- window to the top of the stack, dragging moves the whole
- window.
-
- • Unknown icons are now shown by a question mark icon.
-
- • Saving (from another application) to a card stores the object
- to a data directory within LogFS.
-
- • Dragging from the 'Filer' while Alt pressed makes a copy
- of the object in a data directory within LogFS.
-
- • Dragging from the 'Filer' while Alt+Shift pressed moves
- the object to a data directory within LogFS.
-
- • Now loads onto left hand side of icon bar.
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.21 (5th September 1995)
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Abort when using some menu options when only 1 card group
- defined (Reported by Mathew Bloch).
-
- • Prevent excessively large configuration parameters making
- the window larger than the screen (Reported by Mathew Bloch).
-
- • Did not plot square pixel icons in rectangular pixel modes,
- (Reported by Mathew Bloch).
-
- • Abort when quitting and selecting 'Cancel' from the
- Save dialogue box.
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.20 (28th August 1995)
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Larger Font sizes correctly calculated on
- card tags.
-
- Enhancements:-
-
- • Rewrote Icon plotting routines (previously
- used 'Wimp_PlotIcon') to use Sprite_Op 52
- (Plot sprite scaled) to give greater control
- over the size of Icons. (Flags=Scaled;)
-
- • Used 'Font' calls to write all text on cards.
-
- • Included an interactive configuration window
- on the IconBar menu.
-
- • Slabbed effect for icons (Flags=Slabbed;).
-
- • NoText Flag prevents text being written under
- Icon (you can mimic MS Office button bar!!).
- (Flags=NoText;)
-
- • Security option added to flags, see file
- Security. (Flags=Secure; - not settable from
- Configure windo).
-
- • Current configuration parameters:-
-
- ⇨FontName= Homerton.Medium; | Font to use on the cards
- ⇨FontSz= 12; | Point Size
- ⇨TagNum= 3; | No. of tags per row
- CurCard= 0; | Current card number
- ⇨ColsPerCard=3; | Icons per row
- ☓IconSizeH= 126; | Horizontal size of Icons
- ⇨IconSizeV= 106; | Vertical size of Icons
- ⇨IconGapH= 10; | Horizontal gaps between Icons
- ⇨IconGapV= 10; | Vertical gaps between Icons
- ⇨IconBorder= 0; | Border round Icons
- WindBorderH=32; | Horizontal Window Border
- WindBorderV=32; | Vertical Window Border
-
- ⇨Flags= Slabbed,Scaled,NoText;
- Flags= Secure;
-
- ⇨ = Configurable from 'Configure window'
- ☓ = Calculated from IconSizeV and FontSz
- = Only Configurable by an Editor
-
- IconBorder is only used by new Scaled Icon
- routines (is intended for slabbed effect).
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.14/15 (18th August 1995) (not released)
- ------------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Slight asymmetry on cards corrected - (right and bottom
- margins slightly larger than left and bottom).
-
- Enhancements:-
-
- • Slabbed effect for icons (optional).
-
- • New configuration parameters:-
-
- Slabbed=; | Enter 'R5,2' for slabbed icons
- IconSizeH=160; | Horizontal size of Icon
- IconSizeV=108; | Vertical size of Icon
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.13 (12th June 1995)
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Click Select on IconBar now toggles open/close.
-
- • Small bug in Window sizing - if you set WindBorderV (in
- the settings file) to zero the very top of the tags would
- get chopped off.
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.12 (25th May 1995)
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Occasional disappearence of icons from cards (when icon
- was an App/Directory and a file within the directory was
- deleted) has been fixed.
-
- • MakeFile changed to use relative path addressing, so it
- will compile on any machine (UnArchive first).
-
- • Changed to compile with DeskLib 2.14 - Uses new Save module
- so my hacked version not required.
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.11
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Problem with top bit set characters in filenames (á la
- Alt-Space) disappearing fixed. Reported by Texas.
-
- • There is a problem with the Anti-aliased card stub text
- when opening a menu over it on Risc PCs. I have recoded
- this slightly, but can't test it :-(. (Again by Texas).
-
- • On initial startup (while it is trying to boot all
- 'known' applications) it could get 'lost' if the order
- of the rows was changed, and not boot everything it
- should.
-
- Enhancements:-
-
- • Added a custom interactive help handler for the card
- window.
-
- • Added dragging of Settings file to IconBar icon.
-
- Extras:-
-
- • Included the source in the release - its much more
- user friendly that way - and you can check that there
- is nothing fishy going on. I'm not proud of the code
- - my disability precludes me from being too fussy about
- layout and comments - my brain works much faster than
- my fingers (which isn't saying a lot). You will notice
- that the 'Save' module is a ripoff from DeskLib with a
- few minor tweaks.
-
-
- Changes in LogFS 1.10
- ---------------------
-
- Fixes:-
-
- • Problem with long card names is now fixed (thanks
- for drawing my attention to this Cy).
-
- Enhancements:-
-
- • Integration with my UpCall Module so that LogFS now
- has a link with the 'real' world and tries to maintain
- its own cards in line with any changes it detects.
-
- • You can now double click on the current card stub to
- 'Filer_Run' a group of selected icons.
-
- • Filer_Run is now executed in the background - like
- Filer_Boot.
-
- • All path names are now Canonicalised (to let Upcalls
- work properly). This means that if the Settings file
- contains entries containing System Vars - such as
- <LogFS$Dir>.Help - then this is canonicalised when
- written back to the Settings file. The previous
- version did not do this and preserved System Vars.
-
- • Inclusion of !HelpDraw file to document what different
- clicks do.
-
-
- To do:-
-
- • Implement 'Display' and 'FileInfo' code - currently
- greyed out!!
