Super-Nudelist: To Do
Highest Priority -- Planned before Version 2.0.0.0:
- Ability to specify font colours for each type of button and frame. (For people who override the bitmaps.)
- Move out of Beta and release Version 2.0.0.0 to Remote Central.
High Priority:
- Tool: Management (extension of DevResDlg with SetDeviceTo/MoveToList/CopyToList/Add+or-nToDiscNumbers/Delete)
- When exporting CSV, give ability to select which lists are included. (Currently, all are.)
- Add button to save report pages as CSV files.
- Option to skip levels with only one thing. e.g. An artist only has one disc, so play the disc when the artist is clicked.
Medium Priority:
- Import and Export of Access DB files. Anyone able to help with this?
- Option to add to track panels a button to jump to disc's device. (Mainly for when Jump After Track is turned off.)
- Option for DTonks-style border around the output.
- CDDB support. (Actually, a similar service rather than CDDB itself as the CDDB has been taken over by Gracenote, a bunch of money-hungry bastards who have imposed ridiculous licensing requirements on a library build from public submissions and who can suck my ass on a daily basis. Thanks.)
- Way to specify the "main panel" as a jump for devices, lists and hard buttons.
- Options for alphabet page designs like in alan1.ccf, Test001.ccf (can probably be done with a simple BMP override) and Paneldesign.ccf (which contains two ideas).
- Move temp directory to standard temp directory. Do something about config directory.
- Automatic rolling backups of Library XML file.
- Program alternative layouts or a generic layout system. If you have a design which you'd like to see, send it to me.
- Version number and credits page are absent if alphabet panel is not written.
- Support for unconventional changers: Instead of buttons for each digit, people can define (lists of) buttons for each slot number.
- Ability to sort all discs in all artists without sorting under each artist individually.
- Ability to have the same disc referenced several places (in the same list and in other lists) so that changing one changes all. (Maybe just keep a record saying "same as xxx and yyy and..." and a button which makes the disc unique. Changes to one disc are applied to all.)
- When editing a name, provide a way to see whether it will fit in the area it will end up in.
Low priority:
- Investigate possible benefits of clever, automatic "compression" of disc macros. "1,2,3" -> "(1,2),3" and "1,2,4" -> "(1,2),4" type of thing.
- Cannot alias to devices (if device aliases enabled) or to home panel (if device aliases disabled).
- Cannot alias or jump to macro groups or panels/buttons in macro groups.
- Cannot create links from buttons on the home panel.
- CSNList class could be more robust if it used a std::map to get from a TListObject pointer to its index (and unique name flag).
- CSNList class could be faster: It seems to scale fine to 1000 elements, but is far too slow with 10000. Unless someone has thousands of CDs by the same artist -- or thousands of artists -- it should be okay. Something to improve when there's time. Could use std::list now that I've finally worked out a semi-reliable way to get it to sort (arbitrarily) with Microsoft's load-of-crap compiler and documentation.
- Use std::map instead of Microsoft's appalling Get/SetItemDataPtr system (fixed to 32-bit pointers and returns (-1) on error, which is a perfectly valid pointer AFAIK and requires a nasty (int) cast). Ditto Get/SetItemData which is fixed to 32-bits and thus bad taste. Maps are already used in the main list dialog but not in some of the others.
- Definable bitmaps for artists and discs.
- Right-click menus.
- Help buttons.
- Uninstall. (If you want to uninstall, delete the program file etc. and delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Nudel\Nudelist from the registry. That's it.)
- When defining hard buttons you cannot add delays between commands. (This isn't ProntoEdit, dammit. :-) You can still alias to buttons containing delays so do that if you need them.)
- Test with BoundsChecker. (Issues getting BC to behave while CCFDll is loaded.)
