MasterPlan is a project management software / visual idea board software. It attempts to be easy to use, lightweight, and fun.

Currently, the program writes log and setting files to the same directory where the binary is, which is generally considered a bad practice, because binaries are usually installed to system directories (such as C:\Program Files or /usr/bin), and users would need administrator privileges to write to those files. Even if this is circumvented somehow, all users would share same settings file, which is not good either.

XDG Base Directory Specification defines common environment variables for programs to adhere, that users can set however they wish, and if not set, fallback to reasonable system defaults.

This branch makes use of adrg/xdg Go package and sets the following default paths for log and settings file:

For log.txt:

• XDG_DATA_HOME/MasterPlan
• or C:\users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\MasterPlan (on Windows)
• or ~/.local/share/MasterPlan (on Linux)
• or ~/Library/Application Support/MasterPlan (on Mac)
• or ./ (Legacy)

For masterplan-settings.json:

• XDG_CONFIG_HOME/MasterPlan
• or C:\users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\MasterPlan (on Windows)
• or ~/.config/MasterPlan (on Linux)
• or ~/Library/Preferences/MasterPlan (on Mac)
• or ./ (Legacy)

Also, if settings file is not present at the new path, the program will try to read settings from old location (legacy ./), allowing seamless transition for existing users.

It would be useful to put the 300px fixed width back in to the current version, this resolves well for printing and display. Currently the output is set to 99% and fills a full browser window.

Hi,

I'm interested in this project, however when I checked it out and went to resolve dependencies, go mod failed with:

go mod download
go: github.com/gen2brain/[email protected]: parsing ../raylib-go-solarlune/go.mod: open /Users/ryan/go/src/github.com/solarlune/raylib-go-solarlune/go.mod: no such file or directory

I'm using go version go1.14.2 darwin/amd64

I also tried using the suggest build script, but go mod itself is failing with this each time:

go run build_script/main.go -b
go: github.com/gen2brain/[email protected]: parsing ../raylib-go-solarlune/go.mod: open /Users/ryan/go/src/github.com/solarlune/raylib-go-solarlune/go.mod: no such file or directory

The root of the issue is the go mod patch to use your custom libraries. Maybe you've recently archived github.com/solarlune/raylib-go-solarlune ?

On Linux, MasterPlan's settings are stored in ~/settings.json, a file directly in the user's home directory. Not only does this file name not express which application created it, but since it's in a path used by other applications, it would be easy for something else to casually overwrite or write other data into this file.

If possible, this file should probably go in ~/.config/masterplan/settings.json instead, to give it a path unique to MasterPlan.

So I have a bit of an odd issue, but an issue nonetheless. When I have Masterplan Versions 4 OR 5 installed on my system, when launched, nothing happens. Oddly Enough, when I install an older version of masterplan (In this case Ver. 3) the software works perfectly fine as it should. Another note is that masterplan isn't instaled in the itch launcher defal directory, as I have use a custom one. (I don't think that this is an issue but I though I might as well point it out)

Hi @SolarLune

This PR adds a per-project option to setup a custom screenshot output directory (if set). It also includes a fallback so in case that the directory does not exists it uses the application path directory as usual.

Obviously this is your code and yours to do with as you please. But I am curious why you chose to make this proprietary since it has so little restrictions when building it yourself from what I understand. Of course you do not need to explain yourself however I was just curious.

I understand you use linux but a lot of us primarily use windows and then this dialogue is quite annoying because you cannot type in a path or select one of your 'pinned' locations. Excuse the non english screenshots, but i hope they still get the point across.

It is supposed to look something like this:

This is of course my personal preference. I will look into making a PR later but I'm not fluent in golang.

If MasterPlan loads a file with a numbering sequence set, board 0 correctly displays the numbering sequence on the tasks, but the other boards appear to have the numbering sequence set to "Off." When the right-click menu is opened and closed, this fixes the currently displayed board, and when a task is set to be the focused task, this also fixes it, unless the task was focused because of cutting/copying and pasting, in which case, some weird stuff can happen:

Windows 10 64-bit master branch (commit 40f188c), Build: windows_amd64

Description: On macOS, resizing the window presents a rendering issue where the view is constrained to the bottom right corner of the window. After that, moving the resized window zooms into the view covering up the task bar at the bottom.

System Info: macOS 10.15.2 MasterPlan 0.1.0

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start MaserPlan on macOS 10.15.2

Currently, if you press - on a numbered card, you can have a negative number for the amount of completed tasks This is a one-line change, it should be pretty self-explanatory

App version

Branch: sdl-rework
commit: c499536b02c138b0507e5a86f47a5cb3dc8b38b6

Description

When the grid is rendered, some visual artifacts are experienced. As you can see, the grid seems to be rendering elements from the gpus frame buffer that are not related to the app.

No visual artifacts are present when the grid rendering is disabled. or zoomed out enough where the grid would not be rendering.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run the app
2. Zoom in enough to have the grid render
3. witness the artifacts.

System info:

OS: Arch Linux 
Kernel: x86_64 Linux 5.19.10-arch1-1

Graphics:
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Tahiti PRO [Radeon HD 7950/8950 OEM / R9 280]
        Subsystem: PC Partner Limited / Sapphire Technology Radeon R9 280
        Kernel driver in use: amdgpu
        Kernel modules: radeon, amdgpu

When building on Ubuntu 22.04, additionally to zenity and libx11-dev, also these packages were needed:

• libsdl2-ttf-dev
• libsdl2-image-dev
• libsdl2-gfx-dev

While I understand it may be a large undertaking to port it to android, simply building an ARMv8/AARCH64 build would be fairly simple, would allow those who have the skills to run a linux chroot on android devices able to run this, and would make it not suck battery out of ARM64 windows laptops, it would also enable usage on a raspberry pi 3 and newer and other ARM64 SBCs, this would definitely make me decide to buy this application as I'd have more use-cases for it.

These are minor issues I have discovered and decided to report on here.

I would try to contribute, however the program does not compile for me on Windows nor Linux cross-compiling for Windows.

The editor allows you to generate notes with a pretty long description but on subsequent load of the plan, the program crashes.

I've been using masterplan like a white board for jotting notes and ended up with a note that is pretty long. I've made a minimal reproducing case here, this is the note I was using, verbatim just replaced the description with a repeating character sequence.
