Re: Free app for Roku dev's

I looked into the bug last night and it looks like I missed this when I updated for windows.  Thanks marcelo.cabra!  I just pushed out version 1.3.0 which should now exclude the out directory.  This version also includes the ability to take screenshots.  Thanks joetesta for the suggestion.

Re: Free app for Roku dev's

ran into a small bug on windows with the keyboard remote, I was hitting enter expecting 'OK' press but it kept going to home position as if it was receiving 'Home' press.  Tried a few times then gave up and switched to actual remote and it worked as expected.

I had an issue related to focus, when using the keyboard as remote and the focus is on a button, pressing Enter (OK) the button is also pressed, another thing: the up/down keys affects the scrollbar of the window when you are navigating on Roku, that is distracting, have the window content scrolling up and down.

aha that is probably the cause of my issue, because when I went back to it within the same "session" (no roku reboot between or anything) it was back working as expected.  Thanks Marcelo.
Regarding the build / ignore topic, just built a project and seeing it includes my .git folder and .gitignore file
Thanks for your efforts Brian!!

Re: Free app for Roku dev's

haven't contemplated potential security implications, but what about saving dev keys and having an option to package builds?

Re: Free app for Roku dev's

couple more requests, exclude existing ".zip" files from being included in zips / builds
to copy text from the debugger I hit ctrl-c but that then breaks the app, tried right-clicking but it just un-highlights text without copying to clipboard.

This is on my list of things I want to add.  I want to make it so you can generate the keys too.

I will be adding the ability to input what files/folders to exclude.  As for the copying.  This works on mac so this must be a windows issue.  I will take a look.  Thanks for letting me know.

Re: Free app for Roku dev's

Was looking for this post, Finally found it!
Another request, a way to label / nickname devices that come up in the Select list for quick reference, like an input field to the right of the ip address that could be sticky based on the device id?

And bump for ability to copy text from debugger without breaking (ctrl c) the app - thanks Brian! 😄
