Hi guys. There are 2 settings that I ALWAYS need to change and I think it would be nice to have them by default:
1) Always show debugger and avoid pre-debugger windows. It makes no sense for development. It takes you the double of time. What does the pre-debug brings you? nothing. If you want to proceed, then the debugger also has that option. If you want to abandon, you can just close the debugger. So, we should enable this. If someone wanst the pre-debugger fwindows for a reasons, then he should enable it. 2) Fast dragging. The normal dragging is slow in old machines and slow when there are lots of opened windows. The fast drag is much faster and nicer because since it is transparent you can even see what is below. Let's do a quick survey. We have 24 hrs. Do not vote if you didn't try it. I start: Debugger alwaysOpenFullDebugger: true. +1 UITheme currentSettings fastDragging: true. +1 Cheers -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com |

+3 (+1 to the doodle, +1 to debugger, +1 to fast dragging) |

That's exactly the scenario Startup Preferences has been designed for ...
You can't make the whole community liking your preferences :) So set your own ^^ Ben On May 3, 2012, at 10:16 AM, Mariano Martinez Peck wrote:

No more emails ;) What I want to *not* have are 580 emails of people saying +1 or -1 There is for sure some website for doing a vote? I thought doodle added that?

That doesn't work. I have 10 different images per day. Replicating a file for each folder for each image does not work. Startup Preferences will only work for me when it automatically searches in $HOME or some other shared place.

That's because you dunno how to use it :)
Startup preferences let you set it once and for all (I am also downloading 10 images per day ^^) Ben On May 3, 2012, at 10:22 AM, Mariano Martinez Peck wrote:

Explain me how I can use it then.
Even if I have to do it once. I won't copy paste a file for every single image I want to use.

But having good defaults is nice too. I also think pre debugger does give me no value. More on, Mariano is being very soft, I should ask to remove it directly :P.

Have a look at StartupLoader class >> #example
You defined it once for all your images, using only one file :) That's the goal :) Ben On May 3, 2012, at 10:35 AM, Mariano Martinez Peck wrote:

Yeah, but that doesn't works because we disabled lookup for startup scripts unless in image directory.
And we disabled that because it was not working for windows (maybe we should reintroduce it, but need to fix it for windows). See PreferencesHandler>>#buildActionList Esteban On May 3, 2012, at 10:43 AM, Benjamin wrote:

Debugger alwaysOpenFullDebugger: true. +1... Great idea! I didn't even know that was a setting!!
UITheme currentSettings fastDragging: true. -1... Let the default be visually satisfying and people on older systems can change the setting Sean

Options are good, but I disagree that always opening a full debugger is a good idea - I've seen meltdowns from less. YMMV. You've been warned :)
