[Mac OS X app for MODx Publishing] Command Control (cmd + ctrl)

Command Control 0.0.5

Released command control 0.0.5 today which is bug fixes from 0.0.4. No new features have been implemented yet.

• Added error checking for preferences. If username, password, or URL are not set, App pauses silently (i.e. without an alert window naming a undeclared variable) and opens preferences panel, allowing the user to correct or, if this is the first run, enter user information.
• if "sort by" is not set, defaults to "id"
• fixed bug where HTML window content was not updated when HTML window was opened using the keyboard shortcut (cmd + U).
• Corrected a typo where I inadvertently used the word "Taint" (oops).

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to download this and help me track down bugs, inconsistencies and spelling mistakes. Keep up the good work Mac soldiers!

You can download the latest release from the first post.

Alas, as soon as I click the "Save and Close" button on the preferences dialog, it tries to connect, and immediately gives me the Transport error (-916). If I close everything, then start it up again, the preferences dialog opens again, and the username/password are there, but the url is not.

The plist only has three values, modxPass, modxUser and sortBy.

Susan, what version of OS X are you running?
I wonder if there is a framework I am using that requires 10.4 or higher?

The plist should have 5 items:

Can you manually edit the plist so it looks like myPlist.jpg?

10.4.8; but it is a g4, not Intel. It acts like the save button on the preferences dialog is activating the connection, instead of waiting for the connection button to be clicked. I’ll re-install it and see if manually editing the plist file works.

I am also on 10.4.8 PPC (G4 PowerBook), but I built the application as a universal app.
On the 0.0.5, I set an action handler on the close preferences window to automatically refresh the document tree.

That may be part of the problem; I get the connection error dialog twice, it pops up again if I click OK, then the spinner just keeps on spinning, and the Connect button flashes. If I click on it, I immediately get the connection error again.

No go. The preferences dialog pops up, with everything in it, and it still won’t connect.

I suppose it is not giving you a specific error now that I hushed it is it?
Or is it throwing the transport error?

When I run the app, the spinner shows briefly, then the preferences dialog opens. I can’t just close it; and when I click on "Save and Close" the spinner shows again spinning, and I immediately get the transport error. I click OK, and it pops up again. I click OK again, and the preferences dialog goes away, and the spinner spins indefinitely.
