For now, a workaround is that you can adjust the order by cutting and pasting.
Later, I may add using the mouse to drag and drop entries to adjust the order.

 

Okay. Having just the up and down arrows would be sufficient for now. Or is it too difficult to program?

It's not hard, but it will take some time.

Feature Request: incremental App updates. As of now, whenever an app update is available, it has to be downloaded and installed manually.

I may consider implementing this feature in the future if I have enough time.

Feature Request: ability to change column size in KERNEL Section to support smaller screens.

 

In the ACPI Section, you can change the columns sizes with the mouse and resize them manually, but in the Kernel Section, you can't. The behavior is inconsistent.

All columns are adaptive to the width of the text, and the maximum width of the column is equal to the maximum width of the text in the column, which is fully automatic.
So, please use the horizontal scrollbar to view the contents of the table beyond the screen width.

@5T33Z0You can set the scroll bar to "Always" in the System Preferences of your Mac.

[Guest 5T33Z0]

I know that it's set to auto and I know how scrollbars work, thank you.   It's just clunky to handle not being able to change the column width. And it's inconsistent since manual resizing works in the ACPI Section.

@5T33Z0I will go through an alternative route to solve the confusion you are experiencing.

@5T33Z0Incremental automatic update has been added, please download the latest release. More suggestions or questions are welcome.

@ic005k Incremental Updates working! THANKS!

Suggestion: change Icon for "Synchronize OC Main program".  As far as using the app is concerned I've been asked a couple of times, where the Icon for updating OpenCore is. 

 

I think an icon similar this would make it more obvious: https://www.dreamstime.com/update-software-icon-concept-update-application-progress-icon-graphic-web-design-update-software-icon-concept-update-image124697924

@5T33Z0I'm very sorry that I don't have much time for these details, including the icons. If you are willing and have enough time, I would be happy to invite you to participate in the OCAT project, you can provide and design icons for OCAT, etc. Thank you.
Note: The recommended size of the icons is 256x256 and the format is PNG or SVG.

@5T33Z0By the way, you can attach the icon to this post and I will add it to the OCAT.

[ic005k]

Please be bold with your creativity and I will be very happy to accept your design.

@5T33Z0Hexadecimal calculator is now added, please upgrade to the latest version.

 

[Guest 5T33Z0]

@ic005k Awesome. Thanks. But I think the update feature is broken:

 

- It notifies about updates

- it downloads the update

- quits the app

- After Restart the app is not updated

I have tested it and it seems that there is no problem and the automatic upgrade works fine.
I have logged the issue, I will check the code later and will keep an eye on the issue.

Hello ic005k,

 

I have a minor suggestion to OC Syncing function.

Is it possible to update Docs and Utilities folder too and Resources from OcBinaryData

 

Regards

Junaed

Thanks. Automated Update still doesn't work for me. It downloads, but doesn't apply. Does the App have to reside in the "Applications" folder?OCAuxiliaryTools_2021-09-28-081132_T530.crash

I read the log you provided, see above. I'm guessing it has something to do with this "*" folder? Generally speaking, "*" is a special character that is not usually used in the names of files and folders.
If you replace the "*" with another normal letter, you should be fine.
I will keep an eye on this issue.
