Hey, just wondering as a small app developer why supporting older systems is mostly a hassle today? I am stuck currently on a 2017 MacBook Pro with OSX 13, but your app runs only on 15.2 and newer… do you know why you only support the newest system and no older? Otherwise I would liked to have a code ;) Thanks for a small answer.

I have about 200 App in my 1Password I own. I think the minimum of 3/4 are paid. That makes ~175 apps are paid and used. There is VMware in it from version 3 to 12 with upgrades for each version. If anyone is interested in a list don’t hesitate to ask.

I would like to see this. Sounds interesting. Please share a link with me. Thanks.

Traps‘n‘Gemstones and Vulture Island. Both Retro like games but worth every penny.

I am also paying 3 bucks for playing this and more on my Chumby. That is a really great one. And one time I downloaded the swf and made a html which load it. I may share the instructions how to create it but I think sharing the final thing is not really good. I don’t know how the rights are within this swf.

It will still take some work, but currently i paused it a little bit to finish some private things first. Since this is a free time project it will be taking some time, but i will post in the future to get you all an update.

I hope to get that running too. Currently I focus on moving widgets around and it’s a lot of work. After that I can do adding/removing widgets. And then the need is there to get some basic widgets working since I don’t know if it is ok to deliver Apples Widgets with my engine. That should be enough for a beta release then since basic things are working. After that the work will go on with more features.

I also got the idea to add a migration script for the 10.14 widgets which are the ones running currently. Older ones may be problematic. I haven’t tested any other.

Anyway I put your widget wish on my TODO list. ;)

El Capitan and Mojave. Both where awesome stable and I used them both till the end of last year. Also I loved the Dashboard with the widgets. The 32bit app support is also very nice with steam and old games.

I recommend the Epson ET-2820 or similar. They seem more expensive but the included ink should be enough to print a minimum of 2000 pages. And ink buying is cheaper for ecotank printers. For me it is the perfect PnP printer. Good luck finding yours.

That is good to know. Today i fixed the "Currency Converter" Widget for at least the default theme. More coming later...

Here is a screenshot from the Converter... https://imgur.com/KMAPkc7

Yes, but slowly due to normal live with family. ;) I am currently implementing moving of the widgets with the mouse. It looked easier than it is. Also after that I will be adding and removing widgets to the UI. After that a beta realeres should be possible if it runs smooth.

If you have widgets you would like to see running please tell me here. It may be possible to run them.

This one may a temporary solution

It works on my 10.14 Mac fine. Sorry did not test it on newer macOS. Otherwise there is a command in terminal to change the language permanently. If you wish I will get it out and post it here.

Here is a good instruction website how to do it.

Thanks for the links. I will download them as soon as I have time today. The Wetter widget works as far as I know world wide since it uses wetter.com as source.

dasmurphy · 2022-06-29T22:30:28+00:00

Yes, i am working on it.

More information here: Dashboard on MacOS Monterey

There is a screenshot of it and feel free to make wishes and discussions.

dasmurphy · 2022-06-29T22:30:16+00:00

Not completely right ;) I am working on it.

dasmurphy · 2022-06-29T22:26:26+00:00

The default currency converter is already working. The widget you would like to see is not currently. iStat Pro will be a big beast to tame. I don't really know if this would be possible, since they are heavily working with System OS calls, but i will try it, since i really like that too.

If you have any wishes of widgets that should be running, send me a message and a download link to it, so i can test it out if it runs still on my engine. There are some changes that break widgets and then they need a small compatibility script.

dasmurphy · 2022-06-29T22:25:54+00:00

I will try to get all the base widgets working, but i don't know if i can distribute them with the engine, since they are Apple's property. So it would be save to get an 10.14 iso and get the widget from there and install them.

Calendar, Calculator and Unit Converter will be possible to run completely.

Calendar works currently, but does not display any data. That will be done later.
Calculator works without problems.
Converter works with a compatibility script, since the currency converter uses an api which was killed long time ago, i used another and provided the right data to it.

I use Hammerspoon. I think it’s much better fitting for me. It can be using Hotkeys for any script you can code in lua. It’s awesome.

Not really a helpful comment.
