[request] Exclude list for projects

Open ddomino007 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

it would be neat to have an exclude list where we can tell blend presence to suppress details about the project if it notices the project open matches to something on the list. preferably controllable options on what it hides, but if it makes it too complicated and has to be one way - I'd suggest it still keeps the elapsed time.

Hi, thanks for your suggestion.

A blacklist feature seems possible to implement via regex patterns. It seems useful with hiding things like the .blend file name or the active scene name where you dont want others to see you working on secret_amazing_project_under_nda.blend.

I'm not sure what other properties of a .blend file that would benefit from this feature, aside from maybe matching active object/bone names also. If there are other specific properties of a file that you need obscured from this blacklist feature, let me know.

I will consider this suggestion for a later release.

Thanks, A

my original idea was more of an "maybe someone still wants to keep the active object or amount of polys/bones visible but have blendpresence hide them once this hiding mechanism is triggered" but this isn't anything I'd need personally. I'm trying to be open minded about some more advanced users :) I only do the name of the project in blend presence so the solution you proposed is perfect for me, I guess it's time for me to learn regex haha
