Wow, it’s a kind of maaaaagic!

Guys, in case you missed it, please check out this area of the forum

Any volunteer to moderate the new areas? 😀

Thanks!

Andrea

U vas ne problema druk! 😀

Nefycee has been asking to make a forum in German for a while, maybe I should create a new section called "Other Languages" or so?

unfortunately until now there is no change in the behaviour of Tabbles at startup. View mode and zoom from the last Tabbles – session are up and away, and I have to choose them once more each time starting Tabbles. It’s not an essential problem – but I love comfort 😉 .
How about making people happy on christmas days…?

Greetings,
Misukasten

haha, you’re write we should make people happy and deliver a couple of kickass features! Let’s see how it turns out…

hello there!

there is a google wave right now that we use to discuss and share the development to do, and you’re very welcome to join it, the only thing is that it’s in italian!!! 😮
If only I knew how to post a google wave here… btw, guys, I can send some 30 invitations out, in case you didn’t get any yet!

You’re right, we should make an effort to be more transparent and international: stay assured that whenever there is something worth communicating, I always post it on the thread "what we’re working on".

the situation with this function is a bit more complicated. We’re talking about a "logical OR" and thing is that, unlike an AND, the point of the "regular expression" where you place the "OR" is important as the output may change radically… but hey, give us some more time!!!

ok guys, point taken 🙂

P.S.: the external hard-drive spinning, it’s not because of Tabbles: me and Maurizio tried independently with different OS (3 for me and one for him) and both got a negative results…

Hello Serg,
and welcome to the forum

I downloaded Tabbles couple days before and it looks as a very promising application.
While UI is nice but in case of hundreds of tags it becomes really inconvenient.
It there a plan (a chance) to build (may be alternative ? for those who interested in productivity more than in nice looking) a l pain grid interface:
– Tabbles become rows in a grid;
– Files in browsed takes only one row in a greed ? file name, location on the disk and tags assigned.
– All these grids are normal scrollable grids ? up and down arrows which completely redraw the window are slow and inconvenient.

We’re thinking of having a more conventional GUI for the main window… btw, you can already hide the tabbles on the main window. They’re showed only in the files windows.
We’re also considering showing the files in a grid in the file windows (this one is probably gonna happen soon).
You should try using the search field in the main window, you can use it to quickly filter the visible tabbles.

And another suggestion ? please give me an ability not to tag files on selected drives. I have huge external drive which I do not need to tag at all. But Tagges periodically run background process to scan this drive; I kill it and Tagges runs it again. And I can?t delete the table for this drive.
Is there a way to kill this process permanently and/or delete this drive from Tabbles?

Tabbles doesn’t scan any drive: I assume you’re talking about the one-click tagging and there are some rules that get trigged by some file in that drive.
Here is a workaround: click the "auto-tagging rules" (or "Edit" > auto-tagging rules) button and have a look at the predefined rules there. You have a bunch of "When a file is created and the filetype is "something"", there you can whethere edit them and add the condition "and is in this folder" (setting "c:" for instance) or you can delete them all at once. I suggest you only delete the rules relative to the files that you think may trigger the rules in that drive (such as .mp3?) It would be cool if you tell us which one they were… and if you get this fixed at all.

Also, if you check the beta section and install the 1.3.9RC1, you’ll find the updated manual in it that explains a bit more how the auto-tagging (and one-click) rules work.

Anyway good point! We’ll write this down 🙂
