Can not save the settings

Open Sok00 opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Hey :) Can i buy you a coffee? I like your work :) (Paypal ?)

But Wifi Mouse does not save any settings. is there an ini file for the settings?

Can i help you to translate everything into german (also Android)?

I have the problems with "Windows 10 Home (x64) Build 18362.657 (1903/May 2019 Update)"

Can you update the libpng12 to libpng16 (Ubuntu 19.10)

Kind regards Daniel

Hey! Sorry didn't see this until now. This project is unmaintained currently but I'm glad you like it and you're certainly welcome to work on it or even make your own fork/version. Both the server (this repo) and the client ( https://github.com/krogank9/WifiMouse ) are licensed under CC0 1.0 Universal (public domain).

The settings are managed by Qt's libraries: https://github.com/krogank9/WifiMouseServer/blob/4a9db724b22e1965f60275895198314af1891da1/mainwindow.cpp#L66

As for why it's not saving settings, I'm not 100% sure. It has always saved settings for me, though I haven't used the app recently. Seems like (On windows) the file is stored in AppData - https://stackoverflow.com/a/57240556 . On Linux, it seems like it's in ~/.config - https://stackoverflow.com/a/17199918 . It's possible it's a bug with using the older Qt

If you want the newer version of libpng it should be fairly easy to recompile, directions are in the readme, just download Qt, make sure you have other dependencies listed in readme, pull this repo, and run the command qmake && make inside the project folder.

Hope this helps :)
