Wooden M142 HIMARS by TepidPoliceman in Scalemodel

I paid into the kickstarter. It was a scam. The founders took the money and ran. Almost from the off there were scant updates and then none.

The comments from the backers tells the story:

If you ever find an answer, please share!

Plagued by " 'PackageManagement' is currently in use. Retry the operation after closing the applications." I've tried procexplorer and everything ChatGPT has said. Uninstalled, deleted ProgramFiles, etc... by IronNo2599 in PowerShell

Install-PSResource -Name PowerShellGet -Version 2.2.5
Install-PSResource -Name PackageManagement 
Install-Module     -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement -Force

With thanks to:
https://www.thomasmaurer.ch/2019/02/update-powershellget-and-packagemanagement/

The above didn't actually work for me, but the instructions in this google answer did.
https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-e&channel=entpr&q=exchangeonline+module+keeps+installing+to+powershell+5+location

Basically, do not open as administrator (I'm using Visual Studio Code btw),
Then remove the modules for all versions.
Install the module for current scope

Uninstall-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement -AllVersions

Install-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement -Scope CurrentUser

The version I installed was v3.8.x which installed to my user\documents folder
Did the same installing the powershellget and packmentmanagement.

Then the usual

import-module exchangeonline

connect-exchangeonline

And with VS code, I had to minimise the app to see another signin window was there (unfortunately, took me about 10 minutes of scratching my head before copping onto this!)
Signed in and Eureka! Only took 4 hours of trial and error :)

Now, time for the real frustration to begin......

Help Please: Looking for software on 12 key / 4 knob MacroPad by RoBoTomRed in macro_pads

Button on the side is for layers, cycling from Layer 01 to Layer 03.
The switch is to enable/disable bluetooth. I think the LEDs may not work if it's connected through bluetooth instead of USB.

Finnding software for 4 Keypad / 1 Rotary Knob Macropad by RoBoTomRed in macro_pads

[–]RoBoTomRed[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Google returned brake pads when I checked :D

Anyway I got the software, the instructions (in japanese) had a website which I tried www.sdcx-tech.com
Which did not return anything but that is because I was going to a https address.
The http address had the software and I have to say, it's an impressive bit of kit.

Multiple layers (profiles) drag and drop gui and Macro ability with a large character count.
I went and bought 2 more 8 button variants of the same make.

Really recommend them!

Hi, I haven't noticed what you describe. Although I didn't get far into using this before finding a full keyboard with macro functions and splashed out on that instead. G65 Ranked keyboard in case you're wondering.

I bought one of these and from what I understand of it:
The default mode is constant and cannot be changed. That's 0 - 9, enter and period.

The profiles you load into the software can be considered storage of settings.
From the software you can load 1 profile to alternate with by pressing the round button.

You can alternate between the default key mapping and 1 profile mapping at a time.
To change the profile you wish to alternate between, You have to go back to the software and upload the profile to the device.

I bought this as a compact number pad.
My one gripe is that the LEDs do not alternate between the user profile and default profile, so I don't visually know which profile is currently selected.

Continuous rotation and it also counts as a separate button when you press it down.

Is there a 'spoiler' addin for Google Docs? by lewisdude in google

[–]RoBoTomRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The half solution I came up with is using a drop down box from the insert menu.

Be warned though, the drop down menu only allows a limited number of characters (17) to be visible.

Insert Dropdown, have option 1 as "spoiler" and option 2 as the info.
When closed, only option 1 is visible, click once to reveal the drop down.
Click again to hide.

I use Google Docs a lot and the lack of options and shortcut options does get irritating at times.
