there's a few different ways to refresh things. If the thread's in a separate window, you can refresh with the weird button at the top right. Otherwise it's shift-apple-r to reload a thread, and option-apple-r to reload new answers. Do you want buttons for them?

(also things do refresh themselves automatically -- it can just be a bit slow if a thread's moving v. quick, but I don't want to poxy fule the server)xp tx!

Can you make a new thread from it, too?
Looks way cool. The icon's a trucker hat!

iPhone app of this would, of course, be the coolest motherfucking thing ever. I'd sling 59p your way for it.

are you gonna post the code anywhere?
― bnw, Thursday, 30 July 2009 19:08 (fourteen years ago) link
so maybe you are aware of this but the auto-refresh affects the thread you are currently reading and makes the thread jump down to the bottom so you have to scroll back up to catch your place again.
― tehresa, Thursday, 30 July 2009 19:12 (fourteen years ago) link
ok, now posting from zing...
― Beanbag the Gardener (WmC), Thursday, 30 July 2009 19:18 (fourteen years ago) link
cool!
Nick: no new threads yet. Press the pencil to show the post box, or double click thread to show in new window
WmC: that's usually the not-clicked remember me that causes that.
Tza: shit, thought I'd fixed that. Is it doing it in the main window or in a pop-out?

Jesus, this has grown legs somewhat since I last saw it. And arms. And got itself a hat.
Huge respect.

tza: am finding it hard to replicate that scrolling bug. Is it doing it every single time?
Nick: that's very odd. I'll go on modem later and see if I can make that happen. Sorry!

I'm not sure about all the space that's taken up by the board list in the left column. I doubt most ILXers look at it all that often. Maybe a way to select your favourite boards from a drop-down?
― fields of salmon, Friday, 31 July 2009 15:30 (fourteen years ago) link
if you press the circle button on the bottom left the list does go away, if that's any help?
― stet, Friday, 31 July 2009 15:31 (fourteen years ago) link
(Ah! I haven't actually downloaded it. I'm just looking at the screen shot.)
― fields of salmon, Friday, 31 July 2009 15:37 (fourteen years ago) link
You can also adjust that column to make it thinner. I use it reasonably often, if only to flit from ILE to ILM.

I haven't forgotten about this, but since the most asked for feature was an iPhone version I decided to have a stab at that. It's not *too* shabby, so far.http://www.ilxor.com/~stet/zingimg/ZingMsg.pnghttp://www.ilxor.com/~stet/zingimg/Zingborads.pnghttp://www.ilxor.com/~stet/zingimg/ZingThread.png

Where does one even get the latest build? I tried the link in the first post and it seemed to be an older build.
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 13:56 (eight months ago) link
I've just uploaded the latest build to that same address - https://ilxor.com/MacZing.zip - and if it's stable enough I'll push it to existing users soon.If you are still seeing the multiple-accounts bug, you might need to quit Zing and trash the ~/Library/Containers/MacZing folder before trying again
― stet, Saturday, 29 July 2023 16:21 (eight months ago) link
Thanks. Downloaded. I keep getting a color wheel of death when I try to load threads, both with the old build and new. Not sure if it is a proxy issue or some cache I need to clean or restart. Also having some problems loading virtual backgrounds on Zoom, maybe it’s related.

― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:00 (eight months ago) link
Got rid of all my bookmarks to see if that would help. Wonder if there is some other cache I can clean or delete. Before I resort to trouble-shooting 101, restart your machine.
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:03 (eight months ago) link
The only cache relevant to Zing is that folder listed above, if you delete that you should be all set. It does use the system networking so if you have system-wide problems I can see that affecting it. What version of macOS are you running?
― stet, Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:06 (eight months ago) link
Monterey. Can't upgrade this old mac much further. But restart did the trick, restart was the ticket, fixed my other problem as well. Thank you for your support in this matter.
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:15 (eight months ago) link
Build 101 has a NOT sign on top of the grayed out red trucker cap. Assuming that means it's not considered production yet.
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:18 (eight months ago) link
One thing I love love love about MacZing is the persistence of the last search term.
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:21 (eight months ago) link
Doesn't persist through a restart but I'll live. Any new features I should check out. I see "History works a bit better" when I click Help>What's New? not sure what it means exactly.
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:23 (eight months ago) link
It’s a euphemism for “the old history was incredibly buggy”

Lol
― Poor Little Fool Killer (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 July 2023 20:38 (eight months ago) link
So now it should work as expected. I think.
I seem to remember that but had just stopped using it for ages.
I just redownloaded from the link above and reinstalled (now build 102), I still have the excess of bookmarks but I'll delete the account and see if it happens again. Thanks!
― toby, Sunday, 30 July 2023 13:10 (eight months ago) link
Oh also: don’t run it from the Downloads folder, drag it literally anywhere else first - there’s a special quarantine state for apps in there
― stet, Sunday, 30 July 2023 17:29 (eight months ago) link
I think deleting the cache was the key, thanks - it seems to be doing OK now.
― toby, Sunday, 30 July 2023 18:59 (eight months ago) link
Really enjoying using this now - thanks for making it! Stupid question: is it possible to navigate completely with the keyboard? e.g. I can go up and down the bookmarks list, and once I've clicked on a bookmark and then on the answers pane I can scroll up and down, but I don't know how do this from the keyboard (I tried hitting enter, for example).
― toby, Tuesday, 1 August 2023 05:17 (eight months ago) link
That’s the ambition, but it has proved a bit trickier to implement than I expected. I’ll have a think about how to do it.
― stet, Tuesday, 1 August 2023 16:53 (eight months ago) link
Great, thanks!
Also - any chance of killfile? I miss it from the phone.
