Honestly? Beyond professional projects, this has helped me IMMENSELY with managing my chores and daily tasks around the house or for major life stuff. I recommend this for anyone else who has ADHD - especially when you consider the notification-bubble like thing on the dock icon so the tasks at hand aren’t fully “out of sight, out of mind” even when the main window is hidden behind other programs.
Hey there! I still love tape and use it for organizing larger projects. I’m on Linux and use the AppImage, and when you open it you have the option to “integrate” the AppImage into your system (it adds an entry in your launcher, etc.). However, the icon for this is blank – would it be possible to get a copy of the icon in SVG, png, or whatever is most convenient?
Also, I made a theme for it that I really like. I’m including the link here in case anyone else wants to give it a try:frzn.dev/~amr/images/donut.svg
I inspected the webpage and found the Tape favicon they use for this site. https://img.itch.zone/aW1nLzcwMzkxNTMuanBn/32x32%23/VUUzQf just add ".jpg" at the end of the url. If that's not good enough, you can always screenshot the big header image and crop it to a square shape. I hope that helps.
Hi! I really love using Tape, but I have one problem with the text size increase - It doesn't increase the collection names or text saying the state of the task. It's a bit hard to read on larger 4K monitors. It also would be great to be able to adjust column widths in full window to a comfortable size (like using ctr+shift minus-plus shortcut).
Thank you!
This software is amazing, even revolutionary. I really, really like it!
The only thing I'm missing is some kind of easy full-screen functionality. On Mac, it doesn't have the regular close/minimize/full screen buttons. It's kind of notable that this app doesn't, as I think it's gotta be one of the only ones I've ever seen, but if it had these it would be perfect for me.
Anyway, thanks a lot!
Thank you for getting in touch. Apparently this is a known issue with the NSIS installer we care currently using. As I understand it is apparently necessary to use Regedit to find
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
and delete the entries found within. This should solve the issue but unfortunately can't guarantee this and advise caution doing anything with Regedit.
I hope this helps !
I dropped the text files in, and I can't figure out how to reset to a blank slate lol. I want to like this - it seems really cool. Maybe just a bit rough around the edges for new users coming in. I'm sure this is a total PEBKAC thing lol
Not sure if it was theright way to do it, but I just wiped out the files from ~/,config/Tape/Local\ Storage/ and it reset it all haha
[EDIT] Is it possible to add an item by clicking out of the box after adding text? If you click back in the text is still there and you can hit Enter to commit the addition, but it would be nice if simply clicking out of the box after adding text did the same.
Hello, thank you for reaching out. There was previously an easier way to reset Tape but it was removed until we have a better implementation that is not too easy to accidentally erase needed data.
At the moment Tape is designed that [Enter] confirms actions for consistency and so as to not change something unexpectedly. There could be an option to allow what you suggest in the future but can't say if or when.
Thank you for reaching out. To change a theme you need to drag and drop a theme .svg into Tape. If this does not work it may be because of running it from the itch launcher rather than independently.
As for changing modes with Tab, this is for when you have many collections and want to show how they flow across or down the screen. If you only have so few, there may not be an obvious difference.
This looks like it could be a very useful app, thanks for making it. The only thing I feel is missing is a keyboard shortcut to quickly delete an item or collection, so that instead of having to click on the collection, select the text and then delete it you could hover over it, press the delete button on your keyboard and it would be gone.
Hi! Thanks for keep updating TAPE.I bought it directly (and indirectly) three times till now!Sadly, I’m having problem making it run on Manjaro Gnome 21.3 (Ruah).When I double click on the AppImage, the OS asks me to integrate the AppImage in the system, but when I press Yes and the process is completed, I can’t run it. I click on the shortcut in the app menu but it doesn’t start. When I’m prompted, if I press No, nothing happens. If you need other information, please let me know.Thank you for your support :)
I've been loving using this on my PC, so I just installed it on my MacBook to use there as well. Since I plan on using it frequently, I pinned it to the dock. Somehow, I got a badge notification on it and I absolutely cannot figure out 1) why it showed up and 2) how to make it go away. This is actually really frustrating because it's really distracting and defeats the purpose of the app. I didn't see anywhere in Tape to turn off notifications so I tried going to macOS's System Preferences to turn them off, but it didn't show up in the list of applications.
Any help on what to do here?
Thanks c:
Thank you so much for the latest update! I really like this app. I was wondering if you could give me some guidance on how to customize the states/categories. My attempts to change the names of the states from the defaults ends up with it displaying as "UNDEFINED." I'm running your app on Linux- Pop OS.
Your reply just made it obvious to me that I have no idea what I'm doing, lol. I was playing the states in Drop Me In Tape Template. Totally the wrong thing.
Okay, so I have Tape open ,and I pressed Ctrl+E, and nothing happened. I'm guessing doing that is suppose to open the editor? The other commands using Ctrl work fine.
Ah.. I see. I was thinking it would be awesome to store the tasks on a network drive. I was showing Tape to the folks in the lab and they like it. But to make it 'team' compatible, we would probably have to share the same file. If it ever became multiuser, I'm sure a licensing thing could be worked out.
Either way, I am using it currently and the people I have shown it to seem to give a good impression!
Using Linux and I can't drag and drop things into the app. It just doesn't work. Might be a Wayland issue.
Not being able to drag and drop mean I can't see the tutorial, nor able to replace the light theme, which ends up making this app unusable for me. If it had a settings page or a config file, this would not be a problem.
If you are on Linux, keep this in mind before buying.
Look, I use linux too, but unless the developer refuses to provide any support at all and is outright hostile, there's really no need for that tone in a comment, there are ways to provide feedback without sounding this dismissive of others people work, specially in smaller projects like this, only so much one can fix and test you know.
You are right, my tone was harsh. I edited my comment.
You have to keep in mind that when I wrote that comment, I just had spent 5$ on this tasks organizer that advertised itself as having Linux support and that ended up not working, while, for example,Getting Things GNOME not only works flawlessly on Linux, but is it also free of price and free as in freedom. I felt a little scammed, and I did not want someone else to buy it and be in my situation until the devs fixes it. (Last time the devs updated this is back in 2021 btw)
But you are right, it should not have influenced my tone, and I'm sorry to the devs and anyone else I offended.
The poster edited their message and also apologised. I came because of this same issue in the hope of seeing an update.
Re Wayland, only nvidia users suffer from gbm, and it has been worked in now on maintained desktops. X has been supplanted for the majority of users for some time, and I have few issues even running dxvk on nvidia. Users with old devices are in trouble, but that is an issue with nvidia, not Wayland.
Hi! I think this is a beautiful and handy little tool that will help me a lot, but I'm struggling to remember how to control it. Is there a screenshot somewhere of all keyboard shortcuts? How do you move collections around, other than the "jump to top" option?
It just takes me a while to get a handle of things, but inserting the tutorial text file again creates a lot of clicky work! I'd prefer an at-a-glance option to remind me.
Very tidy, lovely design that I'm excited to learn how to use!
Everyone is complaining about deletion not being in the documentation, but since at least version 1.3.6 it's right in the intro document
Really like this app, but I wish I could change the font! Is it using the system default font (under Linux)? This is probably the only thing missing from it that I would love.
Thanks for making such a useful tool :)
I really dig Tape. My one issue is that it would be a perfect application for a thumbstick but, at least on Windows, has to be installed to App Data (in 3 different places nonetheless). I would love to see a Portable Edition of this that is entirely contained in a single folder without leaving traces of itself in other folders of the host PC. Are there any plans to do this?
Edit: Just realized the Itch UX would improve from this as well. Right now the user will "install" it from the Itch Desktop app, then install it for real when they run it from Itch, and then they must run it from their OS rather than Itch. If you made it self-contained you could run it all directly from Itch and avoid the "double install" situation.
