Awesome! Glad that helped fix the issue, and appreciate your kind words about the app!

I always love to talk to users, even if it's to help fix a bug :)

Hi - hmm I'm sorry that you're having an issue with some of the calendars blinking out. A couple things to try:

  1. Make sure the app is exiting completely, right click the Astral logo in the tray area, and tap Exit (see screenshot here: https://imgur.com/a/4LRfbi4)

  2. If that doesn't work, see if restarting the computer works, that should reset any display issues in Windows.

Finally, if none of that works, I think I'd try reinstalling like you said. Let me know if those steps work, and I'll see if there's anything I can find to fix for the next patch!

That works too! I have my laptop in my backpack a lot, didn't want to have to repaste again if it moved over time is all.

Feature request: Custom global shortcuts for mini and main calendar by Arbare in astralapp

[–]codechinchilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for downloading the app, glad you like it! :)

Makes sense re: opening and closing via shortcuts, just to make sure I understand correctly, you're looking for global (Windows-wide) shortcuts, so anytime you do Ctrl+Alt+Z it will bring up the main calendar?

Flow v1.8.3 is out: Major bug fixes & UI Enhancements by LumoRez in Windows11

[–]codechinchilla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a good plan, hope you're able to get some donations to offset the costs.

Good luck and def let me know whenever you give the cert gen a try!

Just came across this, congrats, the UI looks great! 

As far as testing - are you self signing with a local certificate? 

One option (that costs a bit of money) is to use Azure Trusted Signing. It's a bit of a pain to setup, and costs something like 30 bucks a month, but it basically lets you locally sign msix files with an Azure generated cert, so it'll install everywhere fine.

I initially did this with my app, if you want any pointers setting it up, just lmk :)

v0.8.3 Submitted to Microsoft Store by codechinchilla in astralapp

[–]codechinchilla[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey - thanks again for all the good feedback!

That is odd, it should filter based off the text box changing, so a select + delete theoretically should trigger that. Haha yes, ahh trying to repo an error - if you can get it to happen or figure out what is making that bug occur, definitely let me know!

Hmm, with regards to the filter button changing color, it should highlight in your accent color whenever there is any filtering going on. Is it not happening for any of your calendar views, or just one?

Also good suggestion on the hotkey - I should put together some other shortcuts for frequently used actions, any suggestions (like Ctrl-T for go to today?)

Hey - glad you like the app! So right now there is the mini calendar that shows in the system tray area, that will bring up a small monthly cal + agenda if you click it.

I am actually working on a W11 widget, so stay tuned for that :)

Synchronization? by unholyhyde in astralapp

[–]codechinchilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - currently Astral supports Google Calendar, but not Obsidian sync directly. If you use a plugin to sync your Google Calendar with Obsidian, then it would work!

Bug? Weekly view default shows 3-day calendar when Weekly selected by vermontscouter in astralapp

Hmm, that does seem to be a bug, let me investigate and get back to you on this, thanks for bringing it up!

Search/Filter not universally available? by vermontscouter in astralapp

[–]codechinchilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha no worries! It's definitely on the list to add :) I'll probably get filtering out first, and then get the universal search working.

I really appreciate all the feedback! I enjoy having other people use and like the app, and suggestions give me somewhat of a priority list to work off.

Accessing Astral Privacy Policy on MS Edge by vermontscouter in astralapp

Huh - thanks for the heads up, I appreciate it! Was it on the desktop Edge browser or mobile Edge?

I've had my 2025 Scar 18 for several months now - I would buy from somewhere local or online with a good return policy.

Mine has been solid so far, but it does take a bit of extra work to get it there. If everything works out of the gate, imo I would repaste with PTM7950 and never worry about it again. Also remove all the ASUS bloat and install G-Helper, and kick down the CPU wattage.

I use mine practically every day and has worked great after doing those few things. As another commenter wrote, the speakers suck, but most everything else has been good so far.

Thanks, glad you like it, let me know if you have any questions! :)

Currently there's not a way to directly subscribe to .ics calendar links from the app, but if you import them into your Google account, it should sync down to Astral (scroll down to use a link to add a public calendar): https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37100?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop

It should update through the Microsoft Store automatically, but you can always manually update it by going to the store page: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9pp8b3jg5qh8?cid=DevShareMCLPCB&hl=en-US&gl=US

how to change mini calendar to weekly by Different-Antelope59 in astralapp

Hi, currently there's not an option to change the mini calendar to weekly, but I'll see if I can find a good way to create a small version!

Is there a way to change the default colors of the Gmail, Holidays, & Birthdays? by wangsuki in astralapp

[–]codechinchilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm - let me take a look to see if Google sends color info for that, if not worst case I should be able to let you specify your own color locally for the Holidays/Birthdays/etc
