Printable view for articles Anonymous11-Jun-03 4:46 Anonymous 11-Jun-03 4:46  It would be nice to have a link to open up a new window with a "printable view" of the articles. With all the side menus and such a lot of times the text gets pushed to the right and off the page when printing articles. Another window with nothing but the article text for printing would be great. Re: Printable view for articles Tom Welch11-Jun-03 5:40 Tom Welch 11-Jun-03 5:40  It's already there. Look for Print Version in the toolbox on the left near the top of the page. Advanced C++ Topics Forum basementman9-Jun-03 10:10 basementman 9-Jun-03 10:10  I think that an advanced C++ forum would be nice to be able to discuss topics a little more in-depth, rather than rehashing the same WM_CTLCOLOR message handers over and over. This would provide a place for people to discuss server programming issues, driver development issues, performance computing, etc... and generally be a more intellectually stimulating forum. Also, the ability to attach code files to a post would be very handy and also eliminate the slow load times when someone pastes in 50+ lines of code. New icons J. Dunlap5-Jun-03 15:35 J. Dunlap 5-Jun-03 15:35  Wouldn't it be nice if we could just type: :property: for a property icon :method: for a method icon :class: for a class icon ...etc? That's how I have things in MS Word, and it's sooo convenient. PS: I can supply the images.

Thomas Freudenberg5-Jun-03 14:24 Thomas Freudenberg 5-Jun-03 14:24  Hi Chris, since a few days, the date information in the RSS feed is broken, it seems as day and month are permuted... At least SharpReader shows the wrong date Regards Thomas Disclaimer: Because of heavy processing requirements, we are currently using some of your unused brain capacity for backup processing.

That other language Robert Little4-Jun-03 20:38 Robert Little 4-Jun-03 20:38  We have http://www.codeproject.com/java/[^], but outside of that, there really isn't any support for this language on this site. I realize that this is primarily a "Microsoft technologies site." However, there just isn't another place on the net with the look and feel and great people like CP. Any chance of adding a message board just for this language? You could even have it be a Javascript/Java/Perl/Other languages forum. This would sort of down play the fact that Java exists. I work in several languages and Java is one of them. Even if it isn't the majority of the site, I think having it as part of the site is a benifit to the CP community. It does add to the crowd of people that can use this site. -- "The money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its rule by preying upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is concentrated in a few hands and the Republic destroyed." -- Abraham Lincoln Re: That other language Nitron5-Jun-03 14:56 Nitron 5-Jun-03 14:56  TRAITOR!

I don't use Java or Perl et al much, but the support community here *is great* after all - i support that suggestion Paul I have been afraid always. When you see something insurmountable ahead of you, say to yourself: "All right! I am afraid. Now that I've been properly afraid, let's go forward."

Perhaps an "Other Languages" forum would be a good idea. Regards, Brian Dela Better access to old forum posts... Shog94-Jun-03 8:51 Shog9 4-Jun-03 8:51  Like most people, i use the CodeProject forums to store all my important data (CC#s, passwords, Corey Feldman's phone #) encoded within seemingly pointless rants and comments. I depend on the reliability of these forums, and of the search feature, to give me accesses to this data, and truely appreciate the service provided by this site. Sadly, it seems i am no longer able to load older posts, as retrieving them takes too long and ISA server times out before the page loads. For instance: this post won't load. I'm not sure what, if anything, can be done about this, but... Shog9 So much he don't understand, Just might never make it to a man... Re: Better access to old forum posts...

Project facilitation in the current article format Jason Henderson3-Jun-03 8:50 Jason Henderson 3-Jun-03 8:50  Chris, let me know if you have any objections to this layout for Code Project Projects. I envision a series of articles listed under "Miscellaneous Libraries and Projects"/"Code Projects" with each article containing specific information about different areas of the project. 1) Main Page containing the project Abstract as the article text plus any critical documents. 2) Project Management where team membership is handled and tasks are assigned. 3) Source Management where the code is stored. 4) Project Design where the ideas/enhancements are discussed and where the design documentation resides. 5) Project Diary containing project goals, milestones, timelines, etc. and open discussions. So it will basically be like a 5 part article with reference links to each part. I'm going to try to throw together a template that will be used as well. Again, let me know if I'm way off base or if I'm stepping on toes, etc. Jason Henderson My articles "The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter." - Winston Churchill Re: Project facilitation in the current article format J. Dunlap3-Jun-03 9:26 J. Dunlap 3-Jun-03 9:26  Sounds good!

It would be cool to get a message if I wanted. Or how about... A watch this thread button that adds the thread you are viewing it to a watched thread list much like the Bookmarked Articles list. Re: Notify me when this thread changes Brian Delahunty4-Jun-03 9:38 Brian Delahunty 4-Jun-03 9:38  Very Good Idea Regards, Brian Dela Watch this thread Paul Watson4-Jun-03 11:04 Paul Watson 4-Jun-03 11:04  Got my 5. It will be especially helpful with all this CP2 business going down. I am missing things because they are not direct replies to me. I like the idea of a "Watch this thread" button. [Edit] Though I imagine the CP email server is taxed enough as it is. Maybe we can have a limit of say being only able to watch 5 threads at a time. If I am already watching 5 and I add another then the oldest gest kicked from the watch list. Not sure if that would get around the server resources problem that a Watch this thread system introduces.[/Edit] Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Chris Losinger wrote: i hate needles so much i can't even imagine allowing one near The Little Programmer Re: Notify me when this thread changes -- NA --10-Jun-03 4:59 -- NA -- 10-Jun-03 4:59  Great idea.

Allow certain people to lock a thread message to stop replies. Perhaps this would be based on being a member for a certain period of time, or gold level, or being a supporter or editor or admin. Basically, when posting a message let the user select an option that causes the reply link to be suppressed when viewing the thread. I can see how you would not want people to abuse the system by locking up discussions, but it can come in handy. Especially when you want to post something on your personal message board but don't want replies. Mainly, I was thinking of the Info only posts for the CPP voting and such. Filtering Trollslayer31-May-03 12:29 Trollslayer 31-May-03 12:29  How about filtering out messages with "Pls help me" etc. as the title ?
