Info on Gmail Notifier Plus is here Gmail Notifier Plus Readme

For my own sanity, I won't be replying to support requests or error reports on the forums here. But members should feel free to help out other members. Please report issues here: https://github.com/s...ier-Plus/issues

Changes in 3.0 include:

  • New preferences dialog (again) based on the Windows Control Panel UX. I've made a lot of effort to use the same system resources, layout and measurements that the actual control panel does in order to give this a native appearance and feel.
  • Reorganized the jumplist commands and jumplist email display. Should make it more obvious what the default account is for.
  • Improved the logic for displaying emails and fixed the toast email display.
  • Improved locale (i18n) file layout.
  • Improved lots of internal mechanisms.
  • Fixed all of the issues that were reported (if it was possible) since the last version.
  • Fixed several rarely occurring exceptions that I recorded on my machine, but were not reported externally.
  • The application and it's supporting libraries are now compiled as 32-bit (x86).

For a full list of specific changes, see the COMMIT-LOG file or https://github.com/s.../commits/master

Please note: Locale (Language) file layout/format changed for this version and many of the old locale files had to be discarded. If your language is missing, please contact me about translation.

The latest Downloads can always be found here: https://github.com/s...-Plus/downloads

As a follow-up;

I didn't enable new version checking as I was running into some issues. I'll wrap that up for 3.1.

I'm recommending that users unzip the program to C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Shellscape\Gmail Notifier Plus. It solves most permissions issues and I'm going to be installing to that directory when I get the installer wrapped up. That'll also be the path the auto-update code will be using.

Well I just dont want neowin to lose another great community app - meaning that I dont want the main discussion and such to leave neowin I guess.

Compared to some of the other threads in this forum, and certainly on the rest of the site, we don't get many looks anymore. Maybe the allure has worn off, or maybe it's just not getting noticed. Is there any way to raise awareness on neowin?

I'd suggest PM-ing news staff to talk about giving the app exposure on the front page (full blown review perhaps), with a link back to this thread for more discussion.

Thanks for the wild goose chase trying to find the current thread :rofl:

Been using Digsby for years for my Gmail needs, but since it got bought out, it has gone to ****. Such a shame :(

Always intended to give Gmail Notifier Plus a try, so now that I've kicked Digsby to the curb, I think it's about time :)

So trying this out for first time and one thing i noticed when i ran it for first time that i'm not able to use tab key on account adding to get to the next field. (password field in this case). Also looks like other fields are not tabable. Not much of a deal breaker but having tab key instead of clicking all the time into a field would be nice.

Please re-read the OP Intelligen. Most notably the second sentence.

Oh i read it, just figured this was quickest way as its not a bug. You mentioned support requests and error reports. This is a feature idea. Entirely up to you if you want to add it. Did you also mean to add feature requests should also be added via https://github.com/shellscape/Gmail-Notifier-Plus/issues too?

Whatcha mean? Haven't gotten any bug reports since the new version released. Looks like this one is pretty stable.

I ask because you had made a post on 1/23 saying that you would be getting out a new build soon, but a few bugs had cropped up. No big deal. It's working great for me now.

Ah my bad. I had some errors happening to me that weren't ever reported so I was trying to fix those. Resource type errors. I think I have them fixed but haven't really been watching the error output directory. I might get an installer going sometime soon and post a new build with that. But I assume its working pretty well for people with no bugs or anything coming in, so there's probably no rush.

Yeah the app is working fine for me. Haven't experienced that issue I previously reported about the window being in the middle of the screen. I look forward to the next update release. Thanks for your hard work on this & keep up the great work.

    • Why it's almost impossible to produce a smartphone in the United States

      By WaltC · Posted

      (Topic to get the juices flowing this Sunday morning!...) Actually, the situation has almost nothing to do with "lack of skills", especially since assembly-line skills can be taught to anyone, including Americans, certainly. Rather, the inadequacy-to-impossibility of large-scale tech manufacturing in America today, and the reasons why America finds tech manufacturing completely onerous in the 21st century, has to do with politically driven laws amid a plethora of non-scientific, utterly politicized "science-fact" that is patently false, punitive business taxation at every turn, an array of judicial fines of unimaginable scope and complexity, and, last but not least, American unionization strictures that serve to actually slay job creation and hobble all such manufacturing endeavors in America before they can get off the ground. Globalism emerged, they tell us, as the needed answer to American hubris and an unholy American drive to excel. Unless one is buried under mounds of political propaganda, it's easy to see the absurdity of labeling the employees of SpaceX, for instance, as "unskilled labor"... Etc. ad infinitum. At one time in the recent past, American manufacturing prowess was the envy of the world in a wide variety of technical fields! The current federal and state government roadblocks against America becoming competitive globally in tech manufacturing are considerable, it's true, as anyone with a working brain knows. But remarkably, that is only half the story! The other half of the story is, of course, the corporations themselves... Chinese tech manufacturing is simply unassailable in terms of profits, because the Chinese government wants to see its tech manufacturing second-to-none globally so that no companies/nations can compete in terms of ROI, and China has completely succeeded in that goal. Let's tic-off a few things: *Chinese tariff policies are set according to what is considered best for Chinese business, Chinese employees, and the Chinese people. Huge difference with how things are done with tariffs in the US--as the US government (SCOTUS in this case, Congress in others) plainly feels that tariffs are "unfair" for the limited number of citizens who may pay them, whereas nothing is "unfair" when Congress considers the Personal Income Tax rates to be infinitely hike-able, along with infinitely enlarging annual budget deficits. *The Chinese government boldly subsidizes Chinese companies to artificially amplify their profits. *The Chinese government deliberately refuses to avidly demonize Chinese businesses and does not consider Chinese businesses "the enemy", so very unlike American (D)s these days. *Chinese labor laws and businesses are allowed to set their own labor policies according to what Chinese companies consider is best for companies and their employees... Simply put, American workers in tech manufacturing are not allowed to set their own labor policies! It is the height of hypocrisy for Americans to decry working conditions in China while simultaneously ensuring that American products are manufactured in China, not in the US, simply to maximize profits. There is nothing wrong with making a profit, of course, absolutely nothing. But there is plenty wrong with attempts to normalize hypocrisy of this kind! But rank hypocrisy and the (D) party in the US are longtime bedfellows... The current government in Washington is working overtime to see if it can toss out the horribly poor, failed economic policies of the past, while the (D)s still in Washington work very hard to bring back the stupidity whenever possible. With the right policies in place, America can be an infinitely competitive manufacturer.

    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      All these CEOs got the biggest boners thinking about firing employees for AI. Turned out it was just a wet dream.
