I updated my Music Metadata script.

I updated my Music Metadata script.

I’m writing about this now specifically (most of my updates go silent), because it is a relatively simple yet practical example on how to utilize JavaAdapter. Check it out if you’re curious or if you just want to see the Syntax.

Lightning already has a pretty nice inheritance model for settings (which I as a Programmer used to OO obviously like). But it is missing one thing: Global default options.

I would like to see:

– default options for all containers (only the ones shared by all types) (I know we already have some of these in the “General” section)

– and separate ones for each container type (which inherit from the generic defaults)

– “Unset” renamed to “Inherit” because that’s really what it does.

I just got this nifty lil bit of kit and i noticed these commands work as expected.

Ctrl + A = Select All

Ctrl + X = Delete All

Ctrl + C = Copy

Ctrl + V = Paste

Is there any other commands i should know about? I know this was/is never going to be a full blown code editor but if these^ work it must have some commands implemented right?

V12.9b1

V12.9b1

It’s been more than 5 months since the last release, but here it is, the shiny new beta version of Lightning Launcher is available, tada!

Yes, I have been quite silent for a while, but even if things are slowly moving, they are nevertheless moving forward.

So what’s new in this release?

95% of it is multi-selection. That’s a lot of work for something that is not even a feature, but if it can save a bit of time and make the life easier for many, then it had to be done. I’m glad it’s done.

Other changes are:

– support for using JavaAdapter in script thanks to Lukas Morawietz. This may sound like an obscure and rarely used feature but it has the power to enable outstanding use cases. Join me to thank Lukas again, he brought together a simple but brilliant idea and tenacity to make it work.

– icon normalization (icon size mode property)

– fixed the folder’s title not updating when changed through a binding or script (that’s for Jappie Toutenhoofd 😉 )

Enjoy!

Is there a way to automatically (randomly) change the wallpaper from an online source or from a collection of wallpapers on the phone? I searched the community but couldn’t find anything.. Nothing in scripts either….This is perhaps the only feature I miss from some of the other (otherwise inferior) launchers. Thanks!

Due to temporary incompatibility between my rom and LLX, I was forced to use other launchers for about a week.

Due to temporary incompatibility between my rom and LLX, I was forced to use other launchers for about a week. I remembered that years ago, when I first switched to LLX, it was the most feature rich launcher around. I figured by now, things must have changed. The soaring popularity of certain other launchers must mean that they too offer some amazing customizations, and I must admit, I figured they must do so in a much simpler way, thus the popularity.

BOY, WAS I WRONG!!!

NONE of the most popular launchers come even close! They are really very boring after LLX, and I am more convinced now than ever, that hands down, this is the best launcher by many miles! I could not wait to get back!

So great job +Pierre Hébert and keep it up! Thanks to you and all the moderators for your time here!
