I greatly reduced the lag that 414 could get after large sibling/parent changes, but unfortunately I could not get much else done. all misc this week I had wanted to do a bunch of small work this week, but my schedule fell apart a bit, and then the 'one last thing' for the new parents cache, which was rejiggering the background maintenance code to do smaller jobs at once, ended up being very difficult. I worked hard on figuring out a method, and then when I was ready to move on, I realised there was a design flaw and had to re-do a large part of it! In any case, it now works much better–even if you have thousands of tags with one common parent, they can now calculate one at a time, nice and quietly in the background. Some million-strong siblings and parents might still be a bit too laggy for an HDD to calculate in normal time, but an SSD should be generally ok. If it still lags for you, you can make it only work in idle time under tags->siblings/parents sync. In that vein, the new tag display dialogs now have a nice green/red text label to describe the current maintenance options, so you better know when to expect any changes to be calculated. I fixed and improved a couple small things, but other than that, the main highlight is options->gui pages now lets you put the main window's page tabs on top/left/right/bottom (previously it could only do top/left). This now also updates as soon as the options dialog is applied. full list - in _options->gui pages_ you can now set the main window's page tab alignment to top/left/right/bottom (previously it was just top/left). this property now updates for all page of pages on options ok, it no longer needs client restart (issue #642) - the maintenance task that migrates tag display from the current values to the ideal application now works in significantly smaller steps. big lag from adding hundreds of childen to one parent (or similar siblings) should now be radically reduced - rejiggered some layout in the new tag display dialogs - added green/red texts to the new tag display dialogs to talk about when sync can work atm and how fast to expect changes to apply - reordered the new tag 'siblings/parents info' right-click menu so the dynamic 'has x siblings/parents' submenus are on the bottom - added basic client api calls for /add_files/…, delete_files, undelete_files, archive_files, and unarchive_files. they take 'hash' and 'hashes' parameters. I am throwing these out at the end of the week, so they don't have documentation or proper unit tests, but feel free to play with them (issue #393) - sped up some UI refresh on content update for very large sessions - sped up right-click tag/file menu any/all select actions on very large file sessions next week I'll try to get some more small things done, ha ha. I have IRL election day stuff to do, so it'll unfortunately be a slightly light week again. Release should be on Wednesday as normal, maybe a little late.
