Feature request:

Instead of the current one, add a proper splash screen and add a good font like Jetbrains Mono or Montserrat. Makes it look "professional"

I will add support for custom fonts in one of the future updates.

Though I'm not sure what you mean by "proper splash"? What makes the current one "not proper"?

image I just don't like default font and then yes, I would love it make it like a Adobe Photoshop kind of Splash Screen.

And when I try to open the app with these settings, it doesn't and I have to use CTRL+SHIFT+SPACE. I'm on Windows 11, the latest cumulative update.

Are you sure it's not caused by this setting?

Yep; checked it properly and it is disabled.

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 16:11 Im-Kal

Sorry for the very late response.

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 16:11 Im-Kal

Thanks, I will try to fix it for the next update

aleksey-hoffman avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 aleksey-hoffman

Alrighty, it's not my side of issues right?

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 Im-Kal

Yeah. I just tested it. It only re-opens the window from the tray menu

aleksey-hoffman avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 aleksey-hoffman

Alright, and one last question: how do I edit the code of this project?

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 Im-Kal

Thanks a lot :D

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 Im-Kal

Wait. I just remembered, I already fixed this problem in v1.5 version. It will work after the next update.

If you want to learn how to code:

  1. Install VScode (code editor)
  2. Download the project folder from the main page:

image 3. Download and install Node.js (version 15.14.0): https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/ 4. Watch a few Youtube tutorials about Javascript, Vue.js, and Electron

To open the app in "development" mode. Open the project folder in command prompt and then run this command: npm run electron:serve

aleksey-hoffman avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 aleksey-hoffman

Alright, thanks a lot. It would help if you could guide me to the opening page of the app, as I want to experiment (i know Javascript and all) just wanna try. Thanks.

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 Im-Kal

If you do the steps I mentioned above, the app will open after you run: npm run electron:serve And then you will be able to modify the code and see the changes

aleksey-hoffman avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 aleksey-hoffman

Thanks a lot, really appreciate it 😄

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 17:11 Im-Kal

image I did it, changed the title to Montserrat cuz it's my favorite. Never thought I could do :D

Thanks a lot index.txt .

Im-Kal avatar Nov 01 '21 18:11 Im-Kal

Good job! The main branch currently has some problems. So you can't really build and use the app, until I fix the problems and update the code on Github

aleksey-hoffman avatar Nov 01 '21 20:11 aleksey-hoffman

I understood; just did it for fun. Thanks a lot for guiding me.
