CoreRPG - SingleWindow

[celestian]

This extension limits the number of a specific window type that will be up at any one time. By default all windows except images and character sheets will only be allowed 1 window. You can override this behavior by pressing control while clicking.

This is similar to the now defunct "sticky windows" extension.

ADVANCED:
If you want to edit the default windows that will be allowed multiple versions then edit this specific option or add your own extension to do the same.

WindowManagerADND.setIgnoredWindowClasses() // array of record types to allow multiple windows displayed

Within this extension, extract to run a local copy
scripts/windowmanager.lua


function onInit()
-- set default window classes we dont only want singles for
setIgnoredWindowClasses({"imagewindow","charsheet"});
...

By default I allow images and character sheets to have more than 1 window in the above.

Nice. Just deleted Sticky and put this in the folder instead.

Nice to see updated version of the old Sticky Windows extension!

very useful

Does anyone know if enabling this extension to limit other window types to 1 helps save on the amount of memory the FG app generates during a game session and therefore helps avoid those kinds of crashes?

[hawkwind]

it might but i use it to reduce screen clutter

Has anyone tested this in Fantasy Grounds Unity?

I just tried it and it does work in Unity. This is a very nice extention.

How does this extension help? I get that it is trying to limit the number of open windows, but what happens if (for instance) a second NPC is opened. Does it close the first NPC or does it simply prevent the second NPC from opening?

[damned]

It closes the first NPC.
To open 2 NPCs ctrl+click to open them.

I loaded this up in PF with no other extensions and was not able to open more than 1 image, NPC or Character when using ctrl+click.

Not sure if its broke or if I am doing it wrong

Unfortunately this very useful extension throws errors now.

Unfortunately this very useful extension throws errors now.

I do not have the cycles to maintain this one but anyone else can feel free to update it to stay compatible with the updates made to FGU.

[Ludd_G]

I hope someone is kind enough to take this as it's such a useful extension, and I'm missing it.

Thanks for writing it originally, Celestian, it's been a real boon to keeping on top of desktop management!

Cheers,

Simon

I may be able to update it now that TokenHeight will be OBE with the next release. In the meantime, this should fix the current error. @celestian, still okay with somebody maintaining it for you?
