I had a good week. Notes now display on the media viewer.
notes
Notes have always been a slightly hidden system, a bit like ratings were. Today is a step forward to exposing them. Any file that has notes (you can start adding notes to a file by hitting manage->notes on their right-click menu) will now show them in the media viewer, just below the top-right hover window. They get their own hover window too, if you mouse over them. If you click on a particular note, the 'edit notes' dialog opens on it.
This is a first version, and a little ugly, but I'm happy we now have something I can iterate on in future. If you are a big notes person, please let me know how it works best and worst for you. If you have unusual font style, size, or colour, let me know if it goes crazy or sizes too short or tall.
While working on this, I rewrote the media viewer's hover windows to be more sensible, something I have been planning for a long time. They are now 'embedded' into the parent canvas, which should reduce a variety of jank behaviour--particularly, if you now click a hover, the main media viewer window no longer loses focus. There is still some hackery in the system to clean up, but I hope it'll work better overall for you.
Unfortunately, I just did not get to note merge in the duplicates system or note parsing. That'll have to be for the future.
the rest
A user is working on a neat 'gallery share' system that plugs into the Client API, here: https://github.com/floogulinc/hyshare . It looks like a great replacement for my old 'local booru', so if you are interested in sharing groups of files straight from your client with friends over an attractive booru-like interface, check it out!
I copied the 'file log' and 'search log' button menus, where you can do en masse actions like 'retry all failed' and 'export all to clipboard', to both the log review panels and the downloader/watcher list right-click menus. It is now possible to big actions on logs without highlighting anything.
Just a small thing, but when you select a gallery in the gallery downloader page, the focus moves straight to the query text input, so you can start typing immediately.
