Hello @OneMaxApps , thanks for your contribution. I'm actually having trouble installing your library locally. I've put it in my sketchbook libraries folder, but it's not showing up like the other libraries. Can you confirm what version of Processing and what OS you tested your library on?
Hello @OneMaxApps , thanks for your contribution. I'm actually having trouble installing your library locally. I've put it in my sketchbook libraries folder, but it's not showing up like the other libraries. Can you confirm what version of Processing and what OS you tested your library on?
I work in Windows 7, Processing version 4.3.4
Everything works, what exactly is not displayed correctly?
Thanks @OneMaxApps - basically the library doesn't show up. It doesn't show in the Contributions Manager, meaning, it's not listed, it doesn't show as a contributed library in the dropdown, and the examples don't show up in the examples. I've placed the contents of your release in my sketchbook/libraries folder, which has worked with other libraries. At this moment I'm not sure what Processing wants that it's not getting in order to show and access your library. Are you able to test the local installation of your library on another system?

At the moment I can't check on another PC, but I have never had an error with displaying the library.What should I do to reliably demonstrate that the library is fully functional? Can you upload a video showing how everything works?
I'm confused too why it doesn't show, but as long as it doesn't load intuitively it's worth solving. When you run your library, do you copy it into the sketchbook libraries folder and open processing?

Yes. What version of processing do you have and what operating system do you have? Perhaps a similar problem occurs if it's not Windows.
I'm running 4.5.6 on an Ubuntu-based OS.
Yes, I was wondering the same.
I tested with other libraries that were loading, and when I changed the location of the jar file, the library would no longer load. I'm not sure what you need to do to make it work though. and online search suggested perhaps Java version mismatches, or issues with having uppercase versus lowercase.

I checked in version 4.5.6 and it also starts correctly and shows up in the list
If you want, I can send you a video of how everything works and is displayed.

And what we need to do with that?
Now I'm so busy, and can't keep project in the mind everyday, so i want to know, what i need to do for this?
It's working absolutely in my pc, and on pc of my friends, which made some games with this library, they using win and mac.
Please don't forget about this, i made this library so long time specially for processing community
Hi @OneMaxApps sorry for the lapse in response. I only have a linux machine at the moment, and I can't in good conscience approve a library that doesn't load for me. What could help is if you could research why the jar might not be working for me, and we could try some things out. Let me ask others in the community to test on other machines.
That being said, most "awesome" curations I follow expect a certain level of maturity - adoption before accepting an entry into the curation. Given that the library is only 3 months old, has only 1 star and pre-1.0, I'd recommend waiting until the tool matures a bit.
@OneMaxApps I figured it out - it was about case sensitivity in filepaths - if your library is called "TellUI" then the jar file needs to be TellUI.jar, not tellui.jar for it to work in Linux. Please make this small update in a new release, and let us know when you're done.
Reviewing your submission, there are just a few little things that I recommend to tweak to improve the interaction with your library.
The authors property in your library.properties file can be a link in markdown style, like Ahmedhanov Islam, such that in the contribution manager, someone can click on your name - feel free to add a link.
I've looked at your examples, and appreciate the demos. One main comment is that the notepad example has menu items that don't seem to work - like the save, save as, and exit. perhaps remove the menu items that don't actually work, or get them working?
Once you've addressed these points, we will be ready to roll.

Thanks again for your patience.
Thanks for finding the compatibility issue, I'll try to fix it soon this weekend.
About the buttons in the notepad example, Not all buttons were made to actually function, so as not to overload the examples with unnecessary code.
I might also update the examples to better demonstrate the capabilities.

Hi @OneMaxApps we're almost there.
So I just updated your properties link to a static url that always gets the latest release.
I just would like you to revise the min/max revision values in your properties file. These are not version numbers, but are related to the revision of Processing. for instance, the revision of Processing 4.0 is 1285. you can see this number if you look at the artifacts for each release.
from the wiki:
Only use maxRevision (or minRevision), when your library is known to
break in a later (or earlier) release. Otherwise, use the default value 0.
so maybe you'll want to use
minRevision = 0
maxRevision = 0

Tested with macOS 15.7, seems to be working fine.
