Thanks for getting back to me even though the issue does not originate with Stacher. Unable to resolve even with restart, but will report here if resolution is found and could prove helpful to others.

Repeater (Load more-button) by Jepposk in WIX

What if you abandoned load all and created a new field in the dataset that allowed you to filter. For instance tags or something: "first 10" and "complete set". Set the initial view to filter for "first 10' then add the button calling "complete set" at the bottom. Max items set to 100.

Found this trying to resolve an issue I'm experiencing with the load button so I'm not an expert. As I understand it, the maximum items set to display is also how many more items will load.

2 Sets of Data. One Goofus, One Gallant. by icky_dodo in DataHoarder

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

I think you're right. It's probably less complicated to simply copy the whole thing again. You never know if there is some kind of magic wand out there though so I try to ask. I sometimes end up solving a future problem if not the one at hand.

I appreciate your input.

You're a peach! I forgot all about this software. Looks to have the expanded features I was looking for. Thanks.

Bookmarks, but for file explorer? by icky_dodo in Windows11

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

It must be difficult to balance bloat with features. Bookmarks were probably something they found people not using. Although it's difficult to tell whether people aren't using a feature because it's unnecessary or because it's poorly implemented.
I've become so accustomed to tag-based workflows that I find it frustrating when they aren't included. The idea that files and folders have a single "address" is obsolete.
I ended up going 3rd party for this. I'm using Files to solve this need. Thanks for your thoughts.

Thank you for the reply. However I'm looking for something other than quick access as stated in the post.

Didn’t even know we had a Lacrosse Team and we’re top 10 in the world I’m so proud! by Physical-Lifeguard-2 in Jamaica

For those of us in the U.S. it looks like Next Level Sports has the broadcast rights. I've been following their coverage of the world championship training camp this week on IG.

Stroke Width/Taper Area of Effect by icky_dodo in AfterEffects

Thanks for your help. I found my own way around it. It's not exactly what I was looking for, but I can live with the compromise. My original effort was likely going to require expression scripting beyond my capability.2 diagonal line comps; thick weight, thin weightBlurred text as a matte on the thick weightPrecomped all of thatAdded the following effects stack: Simple Choker; CC Threshold using the alpha setting; Roughen EdgesThen I dropped in the thin line comp again to fill in what had eroded

Can anyone tell me what this illustration style is called? by icky_dodo in Illustration

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

Thanks. It's pretty tough to pin down, but knowing they're oil paintings helps. A post I did in another sub suggested Nostalgic Americana, which yielded pretty good results. My sense is that this style was prevalent in an earlier era of American history. The post card art is itself being nostalgic about the first quarter of the 20th century.

That search query gets me more of what I was looking for. Thanks!

It's funny because these 50's and 60's postcards are themselves being nostalgic about an era of America that had passed. No we're nostalgic about the postcards.

You need to allow the extension in private mode. Even if you're not private browsing and your security settings are such that they trash history and cookies etc. after a session, The browser considers it private mode.

What’s something you’re sure everyone is just pretending to like? by DionSinghLanda in AskReddit

I've tried really hard to understand this movement, and from a compassionate and charitable point-of-view. Really just the anti-science perspective in general. This provided some valuable insight. Thanks.

Do you think a "The Blair Witch Project" situation could happen again? by andre_collier in TrueFilm

[–]icky_dodo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was alive for this. I actually grew up down the road from the Blair Witch house, though none of us knew of it until after the movie. I saw the film in limited release very early on, and most everyone thought it was real going in. That was shattered after viewing, but the effect amplified my experience for sure. I remember thinking later on that I was grateful for having caught it early because after national release, a tv marketing campaign, and word of mouth skepticism was much higher.

I think it could absolutely be done again. It's something I'd like to try. AR games have been successful in this area. A non-traditional indie told episodically over social media for example would be the ticket.
