Installation Packages [MM3]

[Peke]

However, when my update URL points to a dynamically built file...
http://trixmoto.net/mm/check.php?f=backup

This is already fixed and will be included in 3.1 Beta.

[trixmoto]

Ok, thanks for letting me know Peke.

Just to let you know that I have updated Installation Packages WIKI to include current description/functionality for Options button in Extensions Dialog.

Hint: Options form needs to be created within script as MM do not Create it automatically.

... I have updated Installation Packages WIKI to include current description/functionality for Options button in Extensions Dialog.

Did you? I couldn't find anything regarding this in that page

"Recent changes" link shows that only rovingcowboy has messed with the wiki recently...

[ZvezdanD]

I couldn't find anything either.

[Peke]

I added some description in [HEADER] section of install.ini.

[ZvezdanD]

It is not working for me. The Options button is enabled when I click on the name of my script in the Extensions dialog, but when I click on the Options button nothing is happening. And, by the way, it seem to me that ConfigurationProcedure is not optional as you stated, since the Options button is not enabled when I not specify this key. Tried 3.0.6.1190 and 3.1.0.1196.

You are right Something is not OK There I have managed to make use of it when making New UI Form each time.

I've added Mantis BUG to track this issue I would like to hear your suggestions.

3.1.0.1207 and still nothing... What kind of suggestion do you want? You just need to implement that button.

[Peke]

Button is already there

Code: Select all

[Header]
ConfigurationScript=<ConfigurationScript>
ConfigurationProcedure=<ConfigurationProcedure>

but Scripter needs to Use NewForm to create Config Dialog inside ConfigurationProcedure

The suggestion I need is that respectable Scripters like you ZvezdanD comment on Suggestions made/proposed in BUG and that dev team can make it more functional to Scripters. Which means that priority rises to Urgent (post 3.1) or even immediate if there is time to squeeze in 3.1.

P.S. Nadam se da sam bio bolji u opisu? (Translated: I hope I have elaborated things a little?)

Hey, my country-fellow, thank you for you description. However, I already know that what you are saying and already implemented exactly what you described. Please take a look on my Magic Nodes script. It has this implemented immediately after you posted information about .ini file and those Configuration keys. But, as I said, it doesn't work. The Options button is enabled when I click on my script in list, but when I click on that button nothing is happening. I added new dialog procedure stated in ConfigurationProcedure, I added new form with Set oForm = SDB.UI.NewForm, ... What else, I should do?

Speaking about suggestions, I already told you what I am expecting from this through PM. Let me tell you again. Simplest thing for us, script developers is if your program automatically detect out options sheet and display it together with the already known Options dialog without a need to create some new dialog box. Our scripts already have registered InitProcedure and SaveProcedure for options sheet, you just need to open the Options dialog with displayed this specific option sheet when some user click on that button.

But, I am not lazy and I implemented your suggestion, I added new dialog box, modified .ini... Without success.

[trixmoto]

I've not tried implementing one yet, but I disagree that they should automatically be the same as the full options sheet. There are many situations in my scripts where I would a different options sheet initially than in the main options, especially with AutoDJ scripts or scripts with more than one option sheet (ie: MonkeyRok). Although the possibility to use the same sheet for this button and the options menu would be useful.

[ZvezdanD]

or scripts with more than one option sheet

Actually, I think that for such cases with multiple sheets, it is even better to display the built-in Options dialog then a script created dialog, at least until MM developers don't add new Tab Panel control as I already suggested before.

Although the possibility to use the same sheet for this button and the options menu would be useful.

Well, my Magic Nodes script works exactly like that - it use same part of the code with same controls for the options sheet and for the new dialog. Just take a look on the fourth screenshot: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... 31#p179531.

By the way, the solution could be very simple for both of us. You have a possibility to specify your Options dialog in the .ini file. MM program should check if you really specified it with ConfigurationScript and ConfigurationProcedure and if it found it, it should execute your dialog procedure. But if you don't specify ConfigurationScript and ConfigurationProcedure, MM should open its built-in Options dialog with displayed the particular option sheet.

I see thx Zvezdan It looks that I need to create new example script to test this as last time I have tested it it worked.

1211 and still nothing

Why don't you remove this button when it is not working at all? For almost two years you have a fake control.
