Yep, error gone.

RE: [RELEASE] AutoWidget - Let your widgets work for you! - drinfernoo - 2020-03-31

I've just released 1.3.0 to the stable repo, which adds group editing (similar to the path editor), more robust group and path tracking (no longer based on the name, but on a unique identifier), and (fingers crossed) full support for skins that don't use Skin Shortcuts to manage their menu and/or widgets.

This release makes an attempt to update any existing groups and widgets to the new format, but in particular, widgets pointed at shortcut groups will need to be remade. There is also a possibility that ones pointed at widget groups may also need to be remade, if they cease updating or throw errors.

Also, if there are any other errors upon updating, I'd love to get a log file. The next thing I'll be trying to focus on is making sure that any future changes to the JSON files will be migrated gracefully, and specific error reports will make a world of difference in that regard Big Grin

Try the latest: 1.3.1

I fixed this error in that release.

RE: [RELEASE] AutoWidget - Let your widgets work for you! - drinfernoo - 2020-04-01

And 1.3.2 is out as well! This one mainly just cleaned up the code behind the editor dialog a bit, but shouldn't cause any weirdness coming from a previous version (I hope!) Big Grin

RE: [RELEASE] AutoWidget - Let your widgets work for you! - chaos83 - 2020-04-02

Well I must say this is an awesome addon! Good job!

I have a question. I have a widget group with several entries. Now there is always only one action (random path). Is it possible to add multiple actions here?

as an example:
Widget group: Movies
Paths: Movies 1, Movies 2 & Movies 3
Actions: Random Path, Movies 1 Path, Movies 2 Path & Movies 3 Path

if that would work, the addon would be perfect! The loading times are also great.

In the future, a little bit of context would be nice for these. I can read the error, but it's hard to tell in what circumstance it happened. Things like what skin you got the error with, what type of path you're expecting (widget or shortcut), etc... are all helpful.

With that being said, go ahead and try 1.3.3. I fixed that bug, a couple others, and completely rewrote the editor dialog again.

I have a question. I have a widget group with several entries. Now there is always only one action (random path). Is it possible to add multiple actions here?

Originally, my intent was to have other methods besides "random", and I actually do intend on implementing an "in order" method soon, which will cycle the group's paths in the order they're defined. I have a few users that would like a more predictable result when they refresh their widgets.

Quote:as an example:
Widget group: Movies
Paths: Movies 1, Movies 2 & Movies 3
Actions: Random Path, Movies 1 Path, Movies 2 Path & Movies 3 Path

It would be possible i suppose, but why not just point directly at the path then?

Quote:if that would work, the addon would be perfect! The loading times are also great.

I appreciate that you're liking it! I don't have anything to do with loading times though Wink

My Apologies for that feel free to be blunt if im not giving the info you need, but again my apologies

I can confirm however it works like a charm thank you

RE: [RELEASE] AutoWidget - Let your widgets work for you! - drinfernoo - 2020-04-03

And just like that, 1.3.4 is out, which mainly should just cover "migration" between versions, in case I keep changing the JSON format Rofl
