Adria - Inventory Management System

Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

So I tried posting my first TL. :P

URL: http://www.purediablo.com/forums/showthread.php?p=7574920#post7574920

Getting there, but I'm afraid I still need some help. I hope you don't mind. ^^

Take a look at the "Blue" section, for reference. How do I make the TL text (in Adria) so that all Jewels are listed in their separate category? I feel like I've tried both "Class" and "Type" as header sorting option.

There are two more things I would like: More space between lines in the TL (to make it easier to read), and color on item names or at least categorys (I tried using the color setting but it seems this website doesn't put the coding to use – is there any way I can have that in color here on the ETF?)

Edit: I also don't want the different categorys ("Blue", "Gold", etc) to be sorted alphabetically; how can I decide in what order they appear in my list?
 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

The colortags are disabled on these forums. From what I heard because of overuse, but that was way back before I joined so cannot say for sure.

The current tradelist printer doesn't support adding jewels to their own category, the next one will, and the new version isn't far from being ready for release. (preview of new tradelist printer: http://www.purediablo.com/forums/showthread.php?p=7481689&highlight=Preview#post7481689)

Thank you for your swift reply, as usual. :)

Does it support sorting them within the "Blue" category?

Also, I'd still very much like to know what TL category option(s) I should use in order to have it sorted by quality ("Blue", "Gold", etc) and then by item type (body armor, helm, etc).

And:

Is it possible to enable more space between lines in the TL (to make it easier to read)?

I also don't want the different categorys ("Blue", "Gold", etc) to be sorted alphabetically; can I decide in what order they appear in my list?


 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

You must keep in mind that with the new one all settings will be node specific and node local.

If you add an item node with "color=blue" as a requirement, then blue items will be placed in that node, and you can activate sorting for that node alone if you wish to.
Likewise you can add two nodes one with "containstring=jewel"+"color=blue" and another with "containstring=charm"+"color=blue", that way all jewels will be placed in the first node and the charms in the second, and the sorting will be done node local so the jewels and charm nodes will not mix but be sorted among themselves.

To add more spaces you will have the option of inserting "[CR]" at a few places (header and item printout formatting strings), these are replaced with newline chars.

An yes, you can define any Header order you wish, the headernodes are just like item nodes, placed by the user and named what ever the user wishes for them to be named.



The system is very flexible but it takes time to specify each and every detail so we aim to have at least five or so default templates for users to use. I've also implemented functions to export and import templates to so users can share their templates with each other in a simpler fashion.
 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

I see, but I was referring to the current version when I asked the above questions. :)

I'd really appreciate it if you could find the time to help me bring some decent order to my TL, because currently it's rather a mess, I'm afraid.

The most important thing for me right now is adding subcategorys of item class (weapon, armor, etc) to the current main categorys of type (blue, gold, etc). E.G:

Blue

Armor

Skin of the Vipermagi
Skin of the Flayed one

Helms

Harlequin Crest
Andariel's Visage

etc....

I tried setting Settings -> TL1 -> Categories to: Type – Class, but Class doesn't seem to have any effect. :S

I would also like it if identical items were listed next to each other (alphabetically perhaps?). For some reason my 3-4 String of Ears are listed worlds apart. :S

Edit: Just take a look at my TL and you'll see what I mean. Please tell me what I should do to make things better.

Open the manual (pdf in installation folder) at 6.2, look at where the number 6 points in the image, there's two combo boxes where you choice what main and sub headers to use.

Do you actually have "sort alphabetically" checked? Second tradelist settings tab, under "general".

I missed the sort alphabetically option, but I did notice and set the categories option to type - class, as I want the main categories to be item quality (color), and the secondary categories to be item class (kind). For some reason, the beforementioned resulted in ONLY one main category with item quality, and no secondary at all with item class.

I know precisely where to choose the main and sub headers, but after choosing the exact following: Type - Class; it's still only sorted by type (color = quality). This only applies to class though, as character and account are working just fine.

Edit: please see what I wrote in my last post:

I tried setting Settings -> TL1 -> Categories to: Type – Class, but Class doesn't seem to have any effect. The problem seems to be that the secondary category I choose doesn't have any effect.

Also, in your next version, please rename "type" properly to quality, as that's what it is all about; the quality of the item. Magic (blue) is one, Unique (gold) another. That will make things a lot less confusing for new users.

Starting to wonder if it's not just this bug again:
Kijya said:
It seems there's an error in the drag&drop when dragging full accounts, the class field of the tradelist report control doesn't get filled in.

A temporary fix is to first load everything into the regular center report control, then drag them from there.

We'll try fixing this in the next release, until then please use the above method. Hopefully this should solve your problem while waiting for a proper fix.

Regarding the renaming it's already implemented, but we've used "color", since "quality" is used for normal/exceptional/elite.



 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

So for now I'll have to remake my entire TL?

This will fuxx me up since I don't want all my database's items to be included in the TL. :/

No workaround on that one, though, is there? :P
 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

btw is there any chance to put abb. list before the text lead-out?

like if that system reads superior as "s(perior", it would correct the name before going to be listed (now it corrects when you do trade list)?

That kind of correction is meant to be made right after the OCR of the item so shouldn't have to come that far even, autofix works at that level. I've also added one more correction function that is biased on the levenshtien string distance to handle slight variations in errors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance).

I'm currently figuring out how I want the levenshtein correction function to be updated and applied to already databased items.



 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

Hi Kijya,
I havent been working with Adria for a while. Started again today so I hope it hasnt been discussed, browsed a few pages back...

And I would like to ask if there is function that tells how many unoccupied squares are left in characters inventory? Is OCR software capable of this?

There's no such function implemented. In theory it would be easy to tell by just summing item sizes for all items on the char, but that is assuming you scan every item on a char.

Is there a demand for such a function? I think it wouldn't be to hard to implement for us actually.


If you wish for the OCR to actually calculate it from an image, then well I could do it by just checking how many slots are completely black, but wouldn't that be kinda useless since you'll already have your eyes on it?



 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

Thanks for reply .)
Yesterday I did some trades and as usual I joined the game 3 times with 3 different mules that didnt have enough space on them to carry what I bought.

I think it could help if Adria could tell how many free slots each mule has before joining game or launching d2. Something like having a number next to char name in the char tree perhaps?

Account/Character(8)
 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

I guess it should be doable, however we'll not be implementing it for the coming release. Since it's been so long we're aiming to get the next version out soon, but I'll look into it once more afterward.
 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

Adria stopped turning on. I reinstalled it but it made no difference. Why so? Do I have to have IE 8 installed?
 
Re: Adria - Inventory Management System

This is a fancy program. Thanks.

Now here comes some feedback/suggestions.

I also think that the empty mule space info would be nice. I was going to ask about it, but BRKO beat me to it.

I'd like to see more keyboard shortcuts (like the alt "underlined keys" or more dedicated ones). User definable would be nice too. Some pretty useful areas would be a shortcut move focus to the search box, being able to select/deselect the various search options and saving an edited item. I like using my keyboard :)

A column in the items panel that can display the short trade list printout (basically a quick summary of the important information so you don't have to always get the mouseover window to show up).

The ability to ignore F12. I like to leave a lot of things opened (including Adria) and I don't want it to grab focus every time I want to use F12 for something else.

It might be nice to change the order of the accounts and characters from within the program. This isn't too high of a priority for me because I can just change the files if I really want to move some things around.

Is the trade list printout of socketed items fixed in the new release?

I also have an issue with multiple monitors. My secondary monitor is to the left of my main monitor. The "ingame window" is on my secondary monitor when it should be hidden. When I mouseover it, it will grab keyboard focus just like hitting F12 will. I have to hit F12 twice to claim back my keyboard input. Can you make this window more hidden (2000+pixels away if you use the same method). I can get you a screen shot if you want it.

Ok, one more small thing... it thinks this is a dagger (a regex issue?):
Shimmering Ring of Poison Dagger
[w]Required Level: 37
All Resistances +7
Level 3 Poison Dagger (23/27 Charges)
