I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you for sharing 💜

So glad to hear it's been helpful! If you go to Options > Display Customizations and turn off "Expand Background to Window" it should behave like you want it to. Happy writing!

Hi! There should now be a little icon with three lines in the corner of the screen opposite to the emojis. If you click that a menu of icons will open with your addons. Click the tomato and the timer should pop up. Let me know if you are still having issues. 

It's supposed to... thanks for the info, I'll look into it

I'm not sure what the issue is here, I'll look into it. Is your graphics driver up to date as well?

This is a great idea, I'll try to implement it in a future version

Hi Sylvan, I'm sorry you are having an issue. Is the problem with the video background or the whole theme? Do you have this issue with any other backgrounds or themes?

Hi doxiedreg! Sorry that sounds really frustrating. Do you mean you aren't able to get the theme pack to install? Or the program won't work at all? Can you describe what happens when it doesn't work (what you mean by "doesn't work") and what steps you are taking? Hopefully we can solve this together.

I love this idea!

Hmm I will look into this, thank you

Noted! Thanks for your feedback.

I'm so glad to hear that! Thanks for letting me know 💜

Hi there! So the language addon is actually just a font that includes characters for the language, and in then in the case of a Chinese or Japanese font it changes from word count to character count. I'm honestly not sure how I would make a tutorial on how to make a new language addon because it would really depend on the language. In the future I am hoping to localize the software and get rid of the language addons (since they won't be needed), but since it's just me I'm not sure when I'll be able to complete that. I will try to make a general addon tutorial soon though!

I love all of these ideas! I will definitely incorporate some into future themes :) 

I will look into a more  gentle rain sound! Have you tried the brown noise one? It might be closer to what you are looking for

Ugh, I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing this. This is has been fixed for the majority of systems but it looks like not all of them. If you can send your system info to stimuwrite@eveharms.com that will help me diagnose this issue. Sorry for the late response and thanks for using StimuWrite!

Hi there, sorry for the late response! Currently you can write in markdown and export a txt file and then change the file extension to .md or .markdown to create a markdown file. You can also go into Options > Advanced Settings and turn on "Export as HTML using markdown syntax" and basic markdown syntax will work and be exported as html. This will make it easier to open the html file in your browser and copy and paste it into your main editor with the formatting included. I hope that helps

Noted! I will look into it

Thanks so much for letting me know! Currently the only solution is to go into Display Customizations and hide the themes from the dropdown that you don't currently use. I will have to issue an update to improve this UI.

Aggh I'm sorry you are having that issue, and thank you for making me aware of it. You should be able to save your work in these instances by pressing ctrl + S.  Do you have the most up-to-date version of both the add-ons and app?  Please email me stimuwrite@eveharms.com to get further support on this issue.

Thank you so much!!

Hi! Not annoying at all. I did put up an example add-on on GitHub, but I haven’t made any documentation yet so it’s probably not that helpful. https://github.com/beastly-eve/stimuwrite-example-addon

If you give me an idea of what sort of add-on you are interested in developing, it might help me put together docs. I probably won’t release the full source code, but the docs would include information about node names etc that would make it possible to hook into the app further.

That's a really cool idea! However, I don't think I'd be comfortable making a theme for public use that's based on someone else's work. However, I recently made a video tutorial on how to make your own themes so feel free to make one for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsyHcmEndd1Ue4EjqwfSnMMOhduuxIZvQ

"Opening" files is a bit against the philosophy of the app, but I will look into options. Thanks!

Hmm that crashing is not normal, sorry you've been experiencing that. Please email me so we can resolve the issue: stimuwrite@eveharms.com 

Unfortunately including a spellchecker is pretty unlikely, but I will consider it.

Aaah I'm so glad you like it! Thank you!

Hello, is it okay to use this asset in a commercial project? I don't see any license info

Hope you had a nice and restful vacation! You earned it

Thanks so much for the encouragement! I appreciate it :)

Hi Marley,  I've been meaning to make a custom themes video tutorial for awhile, and your comment pushed me to put it together some tutorial videos this weekend. There will probably be one more video added to this series, but hopefully this is enough to help you make your own theme. 

Full playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsyHcmEndd1Ue4EjqwfSnMMOhduuxIZvQ

Currently there's no way to add custom typing sound effects and soundscapes, but I will consider it for future versions.

I was working on porting it to mobile platforms but hit some serious roadblocks and will have to rebuild the mobile version from scratch. So I do eventually plan to port to android and iOS, but I have no timeline at the moment.

Thanks so much for the feedback! I will implement this option in a future version.

If you go into Options > Advanced Settings there is an option to turn on "Export as html using markdown syntax" which gives you the ability to include bold, italics, underline, and strike through in your exported file when using markdown syntax. Click the question mark by the toggle for more detailed info and instructions. I don't intend to add any additional formatting options, sorry about that. I may add visual customization for line spacing in the future, but it won't affect the output of the document.

I'm sorry for the trouble. In order for those themes to appear with the panel background image lined up with your monitor, Display Customizations > Expand Background to Window actually has to be turned off. The themes were designed before the option to expand the background existed, so when it's on it causes them to not look ideal visually. This is something I need to remedy in a future update of the program and the affected themes, especially since this option is on by default, and I appreciate you bringing it to my attention. 

I’m so glad to hear that! 

Nice font, I will definitely consider it for a future version :)

thanks so much for the support!! 💕

Sorry about the error! I’m not sure exactly what happened, but give this a try. 

1. Navigate to the StimuWrite user data folder in your computer ( you may have to unhide hidden files and folders)

Windows: %APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\StimuWrite\

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/StimuWrite/

Linux:  ~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/StimuWrite/

2. Delete the addons folder

3. Delete stimuwrite.cfg

4. Restart the program

You shouldn’t need to reinstall any themes or addons when updating the program in the future. Let me know if you have any more issues. 

yay!! So glad you like it
