Ok. It's a "work in progress" config.plist. Thanks to take a look, please. Tell me what is the reason of this message: OCS:  failed to parse key field of type 0

config.plist

Looking at it briefly, the only thing I found was @pickermode. You have it as External but if you're using NDK fork ( as your ACPI quirks confirms ) that pickermode should be "builtin" and not external.

I've the same issue despite of the correction: OCS:  failed to parse key field of type 0.

config.plist

 

SOLVED: "integer" instead of "boolean" on one key in config.plist :)

Hi @btwise @Ellybz

 

Actually, I use ScanPolicy=0 but I want to exclude ESP, keep all disks (internal, external, USB) on my system (Catalina+Windows on separate hard disk).

 

I try several values without success. Do you know the right one! Please.

You can use: 2689795 /// 0x290B03

 All disks except ESP.

@ndk

When I started the MACOS system last time, after the next restart, the contents of the GUI icon display are wrong. Only when I move the cursor back and forth, it can be displayed normally. Similarly, when I started the last time is WIN10, after the next startup, the GUI icon The display of the first item becomes a hidden item, and it will display normally after the cursor is moved. Is this a bug?

Yeah can confirm it happens to me too since the local hard drive will show as 'catalina installer' until i move it back and forth for it to update too, never noticed it happening until today. 

 

New commit may fix it...please recompile, I think this only affect the one with hidden entry in front of the default entry.

Hi 

 

I can't compile because the issue below: what is the solution! (Xcode 11.3.1)

The same is true for returning a GUI from shell state, where the hidden entry description appears on the screen and does not correspond to the icon, which works when refreshed!

After recompiling, it is much better, but if I set a auxiliary entry in the custom entry, after pressing the space bar, the auxiliary entry is sort by first. If I press the space bar again to automatically hide the entry, the auxiliary entry content will still be displayed under the first icon incorrectly!

Least artifacting i've seen was from Matgen's icons, not sure why square icons have less jagged edges but i think refind/clover do some smoothing/or maybe it's due to alpha not too sure.

Well maybe i'm going to make a few more try,

anyway it does'nt really matter, was just a test to the ndkbootpicker on OC,

but i'll probably return to plain text 

what's really important is the bootloader working as it should...

Yes, the serrated edges are there anyway, it could be a render problem, N.D.K should do some optimizations!

Hello there,

has anyone found yet a solution to reduce icons artifacts ?

tried all possible combinations but still looks ugly...

as you can see...

51841738_screenOC.thumb.png.f45c95e0c030e4fc29e3fbaf4a349bd6.png

the same for my clover boot are something else...

any hints?

 

 

Here's the hint, don't sit too close to your monitor...:). if you see the artifact, you're too close...  If i know how to get rid of it i would...but it's beyond my knowledge for now.

Is a fine keyline around the edge of the icons, will be a solution. It's beyond my knowledge too :)

could you post original icons files?

jaggies could be an aliasing problem maybe clover and n.d.k's  opencore release treat in a different way icons background keying color

I post my icons (Clover) which do not pass on n.d.k's OpenCore.

I think all icons will show it, here's his example screenshot with it https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2020_02/ScreenShot-2020-02-15-083049.png.2621444d6b853ba5fa9bd0f6d3f7fc94.png

 

Which is sort of the same as the above, it's just like a small white jagged circle behind the icons which makes it feel off, guess darker icons will show it even better, it's like there's a white shadow around the icons i guess, dunno why it's happening or why it ends up creating that effect.

 

And yeah it's pretty tough @n.d.k, been looking through refind but haven't seen anything too obvious yet other than maybe lodepng.h/.c with a function and mention of "support for alpha channels, including RGBA color model, translucent palettes and color keying"
