Warning... Beta versions MAY contain <more> bugs (and sometimes more serious bugs)!
While it is really useful to be able to test new features before they get into the release version, sometimes a change may break things. You can always re-install the previous release or a previous beta version if this happens - but you should be aware that this can happen!
Now is the time to think about the future and what will be in XMBC 2.18 and so, with that in mind, here is my initial list. Note that the red items are the most complex and least likely to get looked at!
Also note that just because something is on the list, does not guarantee it will get added in 2.18!
Please keep this beta thread on topic. It is for announcements and reporting bugs in the current beta, NOT for requesting new features and/or asking about existing (non-beta) functionality!
The things on my to do list for 2.18 are:
- 500 - Add ability/options to drag/size windows
- 553 - Profile specific 'Enable Axis lock modifier keys' option not working.
- 551 - Sticky Left Button X & Y axis not unlocking cursor.
- 547 - Issue sending repeated complex simulated key sequence over a long period.
- 549 - Issue with Button Held where the final action is not triggered after the previous action's time elapses.
- 554 - Performance problem - causing laggy IO/System BEEPs. I cant reproduce this but can generally improve some areas where performance may be causing issues.
- 556 - Issue with the default action being triggered after movement to scroll when it should not be. I am unable to reproduce this but will continue to try. May also be related somewhat to #554 above.
- 566 - Added new simkey tags {OD} {OU} and {OR} to action items only on button down (OD), on button up (OU) or when repeating (OR).
- 581 - Add {CURSORBUSY} and {CURSORDEFAULT} simkey tags to change the cursor
- 583 - Add Slow down cursor (while pressed) and Slow down cursor (sticky) actions.
- 590 - Add ability to change enhance pointer precision option in application/window profile
- 548 - Improve Movement to Scroll acceleration and direction vectors based on Killy's input.
- 552 - Add ability to toggle Movement to Scroll when a layer is active, so any movement when the layer is active, is translated into scroll.
- 540 - Investigate problems with {PRESS} and {RELEASE} simkey tags, specially when the sequence is interrupted by releasing the button.
- 585 - Add ability to trigger an action when the profile changes (without having to click)
- 566 - Modification to simkeys to action items only on button down, on button up or when repeating
- Investigate the possibility of detecting more buttons (not looking good!)
Lets kick things off with 2.18 Beta 1 - coming soon with some of the above fixed.
Regards,
Phil
