a few suggestions:
This app shows off how to run a task in the background of an electron app. Dev $ npm install Run $ npm start Build $ npm run build. The other thing we want to do is set a specific background color for your window. Webpages show a white loading page or show a white page while they load, but your app maybe doesn't have a white. Note that you can use the “Color channel” drop-down menu for even finer controls based on Red, Green, or Blue channels. Keep an eye on the reference image on the right. You can switch between reference images, and move the window between monitors to check your changes. Jan 04, 2019 Also these apps work for multiple platforms like Windows, Mac, Linux and so on. Electron combines Chromium and NodeJS into a single runtime. This enables us to run the HTML, CSS and Javascript code as a desktop application. Electron Forge. If Electron is used directly, then some manual setup is needed before building your application. On the Home tab, under Insert, click Text, and then click WordArt. To change the WordArt fill or outline color, on the Format tab, under Shape Styles, select a style from the gallery or use the Fill, Line, or Effects options. To change the WordArt text fill or outline color, on the Format tab, under Text Styles, select a style from the gallery or use the Fill, Line, or Effects options.
- crop the image or fix just the height in the thumbnail section so they don't get distorted. Electron means it's with CSS, right? the background image can crop via CSS.
- don't make the user wait for the animation until he can interact again. I want to tap the arrow keys twice fast to quickly skip ahead.
- hide bars delay and animation speed should be set much faster by default.
- hide bars should include the thubmnails button
- fullscreen deserves a button.
- menu bar should dissappier in fullscreen (I'm on windows)
- auto-add all images of that folder if just one image is opened (this is default in windows and I see mac people stumble to show a few pictures in big all the time)
- hide the thumbnail list by default so the auto-add does not add clutter
- the black bar on top is mostly empty in the middle and just occludes the picture, maybe just a small rectangle for the controls was better.
- I think a more discrete border with the thumbnails would look better (50% grey, 1px, 2px rounded edge. white or turquoise for current image)
- most of the settings should be hidden in an advanced section
- on windows it does not seem to register the file associations
- on windows I'd like to be able to choose the installation path
- nitpicking: the logo/icon does not work well in 16x16px
Background and Requirements
Windows 10 'Anniversary Update' is able to run win32
.exe
binaries bylaunching them together with a virtualized filesystem and registry. Both arecreated during compilation by running app and installer inside a WindowsContainer, allowing Windows to identify exactly which modifications to theoperating system are done during installation. Pairing the executable with avirtual filesystem and a virtual registry allows Windows to enable one-clickinstallation and uninstallation.In addition, the exe is launched inside the appx model - meaning that it can usemany of the APIs available to the Universal Windows Platform. To gain even morecapabilities, an Electron app can pair up with an invisible UWP background tasklaunched together with the
exe
- sort of launched as a sidekick to run tasksin the background, receive push notifications, or to communicate with other UWPapplications.Electron App Mac Window Same Color As Background Images
