  • Index Reader

    Just a note, I find myself using the Index Reader in Talisman more and
    more -- and I really like it. Very convenient way to scan subs...

    Cool!

    I just wish I could make it more responsive, and support the
    PageUp/PageDown buttons.

    The pageup/down would be nice, but I haven't really noticed it not being responsive. I access it remote and it's plenty fast, yes I can see the
    curser moving but it doesn't stop it from being usable.

    Page Up/Down would be useful, but it's totally usable without it.
    I did notice that sometimes I have to hit the "Q" for quit key a
    couple time when I'm in it, is that the responsive part?

    It's not the pageup/pagedown buttons themselves, it's how the index
    reader keeps track of where it's up to, etc.

    pageup/page down is supported most other places in talisman, and it's a
    simple matter of updating the selected line to +/- the screen height. in
    the index reader it's more of a tree than a list.

    It's probably not as hard as I'm making out, i just haven't been in the headspace to sit and think it through I guess.

    Yeah, I only really notice it when logging into your board or alphas, I guess the latency of being over the other side of the world adds a bit.

    Could be just that for sure. :)

    I'd love to make it more responsive and add page up and down support,
    but will take a bit of thinking. it's not a simple lightbar thing like
    the others. so I'm not really sure how to go about it.

    I'm sure you will come up with an answer eventually. In the meantime as I mentioned it works. ;)

    Anyway. gotta finish up bluewave first, this month is going to be slow
    (i think i said that before) so I'm not going to say I'll get this done soon :P

    No rush my friend. A month, a year... it's all the same thing. ;)
