Edit attempt on September 20 2020 -- added link -- added bold font initials

Link to my PDF showing my Timed Automation Shortcut Using Pythonista (TASUP).

PDF link

Page 4 in the PDF shows the failure notice.

As Mikael states, the manual use of my shortcut did work; the problem is with timed automation.

Here's a screenshot from the App Store:

(I edited this image size and resolution)

I would pay a subscription price to get more frequent updates.

Just wondering what is the status of Pythonista development ?

I've been around this forum for about 4 years -- I notice the app hasn't been updated since Feb 2020.

I'm guessing there will be no further development.

Thanks,
Karl

@mikael, see updated post.

Thanks -- done.

I built an app and am running this app on my iPad.

The video shows an app with 8 inputs — 2 integer, 4 float, 2 boolean. Numeric input is tedious — at best; slider input is easier and offers positive feedback. In this app, both approaches are used:

Efficient sliders for user input
Only clear text for user screenshots

I enhanced the slider class to allow min values, floats, rounded floats, booleans. Rounded floats allow only multiples of say 0.5 [0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 ... ] or of 5 [0, 5, 10, 15 ...].

Using Overlays

My first post to the forum.

Using the Overlay class successfully — added the decorator to the attach function as was mentioned.

    @on_main_thread
	def attach(self):
		self.parent.addSubview_(self)

In my demo file, I have a main image overlay (resizable) and two auxilary image overlays (resizable). Each of the overlays could have any kind of UI elements; just showing images for proof of concept.

I have found that, for each overlay, the following statements must be in the order shown or else the overlay window will not resize.

    ooo=Overlay(name='abc', content=vvv, parent=AppWindows.root())
    ooo.content_view.border_width=2
    vvv.content_mode=ui.CONTENT_SCALE_ASPECT_FIT

Here is my demo file; provide your own PNG files (foo.png and fooe.png).

from overlay import Overlay, AppWindows
from gestures import Gestures
import ui

if __name__=='__main__':
    
    iv0=ui.ImageView(frame=(0,0,300,300))
    iv0.image=ui.Image.named('test:Peppers')
    iv0.name='OMAIN▪️'
    
    iv1=ui.ImageView(frame=(0,0,200,200))
    iv1.image=ui.Image.named('foo.png')
    iv1.name='ICR▪️'
    iv1.alpha=1
    overlay1=Overlay(content=iv1,parent=AppWindows.root())
    overlay1.content_view.border_width=2
    iv1.border_width=1
    iv1.content_mode=ui.CONTENT_SCALE_ASPECT_FIT
    
    iv2=ui.ImageView(frame=(0,0,200,200))
    iv2.image=ui.Image.named('fooe.png')
    iv2.name='E▪️'
    iv2.alpha=1
    overlay2=Overlay(content=iv2,parent=AppWindows.root())
    overlay2.content_view.border_width=2
    iv2.border_width=1
    iv2.content_mode=ui.CONTENT_SCALE_ASPECT_FIT
    
    omain=Overlay(name='abc', content=iv0, parent=AppWindows.root())
    omain.content_view.border_width=2
    iv0.border_width=1
    iv0.content_mode=ui.CONTENT_SCALE_ASPECT_FIT
