Merry Christmas Hydrus~

I don't know if this should be happening, but it seems like it shouldn't.

If I try to set a sibling tag for an already existing sibling, like curvy > voluptuous without removing the tag, clicking OK and going back to sibling manager, Hydrs shows me the "Choose what to do" dialog (image 1).

If I click OK, it takes me to the second "Choose what to do" dialog (image 2) and makes no fucking sense to me because there's nothing I can do.

Also, would it be possible to have a button to change between the sibling and parent manager? (image 3 is a quick mockup)

Could even make a game similar to Google's reCAPTCHA, uploading some images who have a tag like neural_network to a repo, let the users fill those, upload the tags back to the repo then send it to the actual neural network.

Thanks! Let's try for a great 2016!

If you see other Anons complaining in threads about being unable to manage all their folders, please do naturally and non-virally talk about your own experience and point them this way. Beyond some initial 'please check out my beta software' threads when I first began, I haven't advertised hydrus myself, which means almost everyone is here because of word of mouth, which is very much how I prefer it.

There are several ways I can automate the process of providing a human with potential tags for a file. I could write a checker to specifically query a booru, or add something like the neural networks being discussed here:

As >>1639 suggests.

Or, more simply, I can write a daemon to maintain a cache of "files tagged 'character:shinji' are often also tagged 'character:rei'" relationships.

If I can generate those suggested tags for an arbitrary file, I then need to add a new gui stuff to the manage tags dialog that will display them and write some workflow (probably just double-click) to say 'yeah, that's a good tag'. This will save people the time they would spend typing the most common tags in, and will save people remembering exact character names or series titles and so on.

I'll also need a new option page or whatever so people can choose what sub-services plug into the suggested tags. I could even plug in tag archives in the future–there are many possibilities, but I need to write the gui first, which is what the voting option mostly is about. I'll write a simple version of the shinji->rei matcher for the v1.0.

The workflow for certain sibling/parent replacement operations is completely borked. I would like to extensively rewrite the backend and add filtering of the big list, and maybe lay the groundwork for displaying the relationships in a better way (which is one of the voting options), but for now I will make a note to revisit the dialogs here.

Your mockup is interesting. Swapping out controls can be a pain in the ass, but the dialog is pretty thin–maybe I could just stack siblings and parents next to each other and share the service selector on the left? Like:

Services | Old Sibs -> New Sibs | Children -> Parents

Or maybe have tabbed pages at the top, like the local/remote tabs on services>review services?

About your reCAPTCHA comment, I would love to add workflows like that in future. Empowering a lot of Anons to work on arbitrary computational tasks mite b cool.

Perhaps 'allow more gallery downloader customisation'. It depends on what you want to do. Importing pixiv manga as separate files (rather than as a cbr) needs a more flexible behind-the-scenes workflow in the downloader engine. Importing ugoira needs ugoira support, which I forgot to add to the list. (I've added it for next time!)

If you want to do complicated pixiv-specific searches of your favourites or whatever, 'allow more gallery downloader customisation' will point in that direction, as I would like to head towards a more flexible html parser that anyone can use to write their own parsing routine.

What happens when you double-click on it? Does the window open at all, or does it not do anything? Could it be possible that your .exe download didn't complete? So if you download again, does it work?

Have you installed successfully before, or is this a fresh install?

If you download the .zip, can you extract it somewhere ok?

Are you running any anti-virus software that might be detecting a false-positive in one of my files? This has happened before, I think to Avast. If your anti-virus has a log you can access, check that. I think upnp_win32.exe has caused people trouble before.

I think you want either 'media viewer background' or 'thumbnail grid background', but I just realised that the 'thumbnail grid background' option was being ignored (it is always drawing white) due to a recent change in how thumbnail pages were redrawn. This will be fixed for v188.
