add ability to turn off individual commands in "System Commands" plugin

Open katchy3132 opened this issue 4 years ago • 8 comments

Describe the solution you'd like Please allow toggling on/off of individual commands. I don't want to be able to accidentally do things like restart or shutdown computer .

Fair enough, I myself had an accidental restart of my computer instead of restarting flow 🤣

Maybe adding a confirmation to these commands would be better? That should also benefit those that would not want to hide them completely...

restart computer already has confirmation, that time my fingers went too quick and my brain was on auto. we can do something like the Explorer plugin where you can toggle on/off the commands

Or add a action keyword for sensitive operations like restart/shutdown?

This seems not that "controversy" to add options, we should find a good default first, options later, I think most people agree restart machine should not mix with restart Flow 😄

As in like a default action keyword for actual system commands shutdown restart sleep lock?

for actual system commands shutdown restart sleep lock?

Yeah, but I'm not too sure about this yet, the problem with default action keyword it tends to hide the feature for users don't like tinkering.

Confirm Msgbox like John said is a possible solution too.

Maybe default behavior is confirming msgbox, and have options for set action keyword for sensitive system commands?

Toggle on/off like Explorer seems a bit "hiding", I only know about it when you said it here 😂

I think if it is too annoying, just assign a action keyword for the whole plugin. Sys doesn't contain some results that needs to be triggered frequently.

@taooceros @jjw24 we have the system commands with a keyword - does that solve this issue and can we close it?
