Latest WACUP public preview for x86 & x64 is build #20202 (September 28th 2024) (x86 & x64 changelogs)
Latest restricted WACUP beta release is build #20202 (September 28th 2024) (x86 & x64 changelogs)


NOTE: Beta testers are added in a limited & subjective manner as I can only support so many people as part of the beta test program to keep it useful for my needs.

Unless I think you're going to be helpful, not all requests will be accepted but might still be later on. Remember that beta testing is to help me & the limitations currently works for my needs for this project.

Search function within "Preferences"
« on: August 18, 2024, 09:23:59 PM »
Since there are so many options in preferences, it can be difficult to find what you are looking for. It would be great if there were a search feature within preferences that allowed you to find the option you're looking for (like VLC has).

Its something I've already thought about going back to my Winamp days but I've never come up with something that'd not suck to implement. Since if you don't know what you're looking for its probably not going to work well & then it's how I do represent the settings in a searchable manner that'd make sense when you don't know what you're looking for vs how they're internally described & that mismatch. As such it's something I agree might be nice to have but I'm probably never going to get around to implementing something like it.
