I had a great week doing cleanup and other simple work.

highlights

I fixed the problem where clicks on a scrolled taglist were going to the wrong location. I was cleaning up some ancient wx->Qt code hacks and it seems I rarely scroll and click when working, so I never noticed the problem. I have a new test to make sure this does not happen again. Sorry for the trouble!

The URLs in the top-right hover menu are now styled better. No longer underlined, and now colourable by QSS. I have updated all the default stylesheets that come with the client (you can set these under options->style) to have some decent colours. If you have your own custom QSS, check my default to see how to set it yourself.

You can now set duplicate action options to 'always archive both files', if you want to play with making the duplicate filter do some of the work of the archive/delete filter.

Also, the duplicate filter now has improved image prefetch. There should be less flickering when you switch from A to B the first time and when you action a pair and move to the next. Please note that if you still get flicker for 4k images, try boosting the image cache size under options->speed and memory (I boosted the default up to 384MB this week, so you might like to give it some more too).

full list

- misc:
- fixed the stupid taglist scrolled-click position problem--sorry! I have a new specific weekly test for this, so it shouldn't happen again (issue #1120)
- I made it so middle-clicking on a tag list does a select event again
- the duplicate action options now let you say to archive both files regardless of their current archive status (issue #472)
- the duplicate filter is now hooked into the media prefetch system. as soon as 'A' is displayed, the 'B' file will now be queued to be loaded, so with luck you will see very little flicker on the first transition from A->B.
- I updated the duplicate filter's queue to store more information and added the next pair to the new prefetch queue, so when you action a pair, the A of the next pair should also load up quickly
- boosted the default sizes of the thumbnail and image caches up to 32MB and 384MB (from 25/150) and gave them nicer 'bytes quantity' widgets in the options panel
- when popup windows show network jobs, they now have delayed hide. with luck, this will make subscriptions more stable in height, less flickering as jobs are loaded and unloaded
- reduced the extremes of the new auto-throttled pending upload. it will now change speed slower, on less strict of a schedule, and won't go as fast or slow max
- the text colour of hyperlinks across the program, most significantly in the top-right media hover window, can now be customised in QSS. I have set some ok defaults for all the QSS styles that come with the client, if you have a custom QSS, check out my default to see what you need to do. also hyperlinks are no longer underlined and you can't 'select' their text with the mouse any more (this was a weird rich-text flag)
- the client api and local booru now have a checkbox in their manage services panel for 'normie-friendly welcome page', which switches the default ascii art for an alternate
- fixed an issue with the hydrus server not explicitly saying it is utf-8 when rendering html
- may have fixed some issues with autocomplete dropdowns getting hung up in the wrong position and not fixing themselves until parent resize event or similar
