[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
I'm using the donation version from the Play Store and have just updated to 1.0b25.

I can't open the app, it just FCs. I therefore can't send a bug report.

It won't load at boot either.

EDIT: I've tried clearing its cache and data, uninstalling and reinstalling.

Yeah same here. Even i did uninstall and reinstalled it but it still have FC's.

I am at a loss w/r/t your issue. Maybe you could contact me directly with the play market transaction #; from there, I could refund the app and you could try re-installing from scratch.
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Well, crap. It works for me on all my devices.

Could you guys install catlog and, after FC, look for a GYF stacktrace? (Note: catlog requires root on JB; not on earlier versions though)
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
I've no logging on my device. I've disabled it.

I can enable it again later on and provide you with a log but I need my phone switched on for the next few hours (awaiting an important call)... not even time for a quick reboot :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
OK I have a better solution: just update to beta26, which I just uploaded.

Apologies, guys. There was a severe incompatibility between ACRA (the library used to report crashes, ironically) and Proguard which I use to shrink the app's size.

Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta26]

Running apps is great, but there ends up being too many running apps to make this convenient. Can you implement something more like recent apps? Just 6 or so apps that were last opened. You could always make an option.

Also beta 26 is amazingly smooth great work!

My back button responds, my home button doesn't. I wouldn't call it a bug however as I like this configuration.

With all of the various kernels, button remaps, OEM hardware configurations etc, this will be a hard compromise to find.

[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Re: Favorites

Yes, your favorites will be lost going from beta 24 to beta 25/26.

It is, unfortunately, something I had to do to avoid crashes due to incompatibility between old favorites and new ones (which also handle hidden apps)

In hindsight, I realized that there would have a been a way to simply convert the objects.

Oh, well. Oops.
[Android Apps and Games] cardona86:
Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta26]

I don't think is just for upgrades. My favorites randomly disappear without updating the app...
[Android Apps and Games] b1ue:
Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta26]

No worries...i figured that the favorites might get wiped with the addition of the hide applications option...

However, while on beta 26, if i set apps as favorites, and then stop and restart the service, the apps are no longer favorites, and somehow end up on the hidden apps list(most of the time) ... It seems that i am able to replicate the issue consistently..

Open the app then don't go to preferences instead go to info / tutorial and go through it. At the end it goes to preferences and then everything works.

Can the app push whatever app we are doing to the side just like a keyboard? Idk what other apps do this so I can't give an example.

Themes

Hi,

I have yesterday maked 4 thems for GYF Launcher :)

But I have found a bug, if I/you switch from "all apps" to "running apps" the background a missing, it is not only by my themes your theme in the playstor have it also.

Ihr picture, on the last pisture you can see "running apps" there are no background.
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
I have no idea what you guys are talking about. I am curious, though.

Well, I don't like that. I should release a new version tomorrow with a tentative (Read: totally blind) fix.

Oh, man. What a silly bug. On my list, now. Now, I'm going to click on these thumbnails and have a look at these themes...FYI I am in the process of trying to add another level of customization: different background/item. With odd and even row numbers.

Edit: I dig RedBlack. Makes me realize that I should let you pick a color for the headers, though, rather than always blue.
[Android Apps and Games] JonnyJaap:
Not have not seen that all strokes are blue ^ ^

I will change the color, should I make a threads later today if I have revised the themes?

Edit:

I can´t chang, but I think you now it :D

Wating for new sours for make new themes

Edit:

Would you let my know if you fixed it with the runnings apps, if you have maked it so so I cand chang the headers. :)?

I open now are thread with my 5 themes, will make more tomorrow, maybe today.

v1beta27

I now believe I have. Let me know if I am mistaken!

EDIT: I just released b28. I realized that the reason for a lot of recent crashes is proguard. Or, more accurately, my poor configuration of proguard.

[Android Apps and Games] PenguinxEnjoi:
Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta28]

Yeah, exactly. Acton launcher also does this (yes, I know that those things are built into the actual app it is corresponding too, but keyboards can push things up, so wondering if yours can push it to the side).

When we gesture to open GYF, I was wondering if it is possible to push what ever we are doing to the side, I will attach an example picture.

So from the first one to make it look like the second one

So, I've been looking into this 'drawer displaces rest of the screen' feature. Here are the caveats I currently see:

1) Only possible if your phone is rooted

2) May slow down the animation, meaning it will take even longer to open the drawer :(
[Android Apps and Games] PenguinxEnjoi:
Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta28]

Working on theming...

Have a look at the thumbnails. What do you think?
[Android Apps and Games] fatjoez:
Icon only looks decent but the icon + text version the gradient background is too oldschool.

Checkout the new whatsapp thumbnails for modern design inspiration.

simple flat backgrounds are the new trend. gradients are 2008 :)
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Right. I just grabbed assets from when I was working on a home launcher. I am not really trying to win a beauty prize here, just asking how you guys feel about that type of customization :)

Note: that's a f'in great redesign. They did a great job.

Note 2: the old design was amazingly bad. However, what is the point of the new background? Maybe it's not as eye-catching when at phone scale. Also, do I touch "reproducir" to play? Why not touch the thumbnail itself?
[Android Apps and Games] cocchiararo:
I definitly DON'T have that on my whatsapp :P why?

EDIT: just went to their site and updated, version bumped from 2147 to 2239 or something, new looks xD

AW: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta28]

Hi cyansmoker,

there is a little graphical glitch.

There are some pixel left over from the 'pointing hand symbol' if you set "display letter ribbon" to "do not display".

Please look at the screen shot. You can see the pixel between the writing "all apps" and the whatsapp icon.

All in all a very nice concept and a great addition to listner launcher.

@ Chris...

i see you add my Icon design as Icon APP and Top Google Play TimeLine Prez... I have no trouble with you but can like all creator, respect credit and write my name in about info... :crying:

If you want better quality icon, because i see clipping on top left phone border... Why don't ask me to prepare a correct Icon ? :crying:

And if you want my advise Red background is not great with Icon... lightening white background match muche better and make better render of design !! :(
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Absolutely, and ironicallyI had obviously asked you for permission first. I realized last night that in my haste to get something up, I forgot to credit you. In fact I've been so focused on optimizing the app that I have not created, yet, a very important activity: the acknowledgment screen (if you look at my other apps you will see they all have acknowledgments)

Anyway, I'll fix this ASAP. After seeing another app plagiarize GYF, which really stings, it would be rich for me to turn around and ignore your credits ;)

w/r/t the icon, if you wish to send me a better one, I'll take it :) but I cannot guarantee that I will have enough time to make the final assets look OK. I'll have to be certain to point out how I massacred your artwork in the acknowledgments!
[Android Apps and Games] sy224048:
Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta30 "Turbo Lag"]

I remember in launcher7 there was this feature that made the launcher faster, it would cache a list of the applications and their icons to make it run faster.

It did, however, require the launcher to recache manually every time you install or uninstall an app.

Are you thinking of adding this feature? If not it would help the performance.
[Android Apps and Games] lesscro:
I have nderstand your prez idea and concept... i will use same size and capture but with better (( i hope) colorimetry...

[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
Actually, that's a good idea. Good enough that GYF already does that. In fact, there are a lot of tricks I use in GYF that I had come up with when working on a home launcher so it's not surprising :)

You do not have to restart GYF for updates to take place though. It receives notifications when apps are added or removed and rebuilds its window in the background when that happens.

- You mention 'shadows' but I can't find any additional options art the preferences, can someone point me to the right direction?

First, I should have tried this build on smaller devices than I did.

And second, it you have the free version, you will see the credits. I forgot to declare the activity in the donate version's manifest :eek:

There is no shadow-related preferences at this point. The drawer already projects a shadow but it's very subdued. This can be themed with different shadows though.

[Android Apps and Games] vsukul:
Awesome

Excellent app-- I use it (donate version) on both my GNex and Nexus 10. One thought I had was if you might consider introducing the ability to have the swipe region height be configurable to say be swiped from the bottom half or 2/3 of the left side, for example? I use LMT as well, and thought it might be kind of cool to have access to both the LMT pie and gyf on the same side of the screen by precisely configuring the swipe locations of both.

Thanks again for your hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
You can already configure the area's height. On the other hand, I only offer configuring, for instance, 2/3

from the top

. Are you asking for 2/3

from the bottom

?

Items spacing: definitely on my list. Definitely.

Also, thanks for your encouragements, guys. Too bad I apparently utterly suck at marketing it :eek:

Yes, that's what he did and I second that.

It could also lead you to offering two flink areas, one at the top and one at the bottom. One could open all apps, the other could open favorites only or recent apps. Or it could be possible to have (two) fling areas on the left and the right side ...

Thank you! :)

Welcome back. Waiting impatiently for new versions.

And I wanna ask something. Can we have support for "icon masked" icon packs?
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
There are things I am not familiar with, yet, in icon packs.

Is this basically something that is defined using xml assets? I already "capture" these assets from the packs but don't really do anything with them other than extract the actual icon so if that's what it is then it sounds interesting (and feasible)

Re: [WIP][APP][2.2+] GYF: a side launcher [v1beta33]

I don't know exactly what does all that mean. But that icon mask thing changes all apps' icons with same mask for all of them. Here a few example example:
