At present I am working on improving workflow: 1. Adding "@url built slide" and "@url working file" is an excellent idea. Continuing this thought, instead of creating an @image node, the plugin will create an "@url original screenshot" node and an "@url final screenshot" node. This is very easy to do. 2. I had thought that the presence or absence of files would be a good indication of whether to take a new screenshot. This was a bad guess: it turns out to be annoying to have to delete files in order to force a screenshot (or to take other actions, especially for testing). Happily, the presence or absence of the various @url nodes will be natural "flags" for the plugin. To force a new screenshot, just delete the "@url original screenshot" node. Etc. Such workflow improvements are just about essential. What is tolerable when done once (deleting a file outside of Leo) becomes unbearable when done a dozen times. Continuing this thought, the plugin should do a "make html" in the in the folder for each slideshow. These kinds of improvements could be called the last level of integration testing. Edward P.S. There are several bugs that are cropping up regarding screenshots. Furthermore, Terry is probably right that the original screenshot must be distinct from the final screenshot. So the plugins isn't quite ready for prime time... EKR -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
