Hello, yes, this is possible Enable "Chat message notify" module and add a message with the following settings: Type: custom - 185 Text: "Battle commencing in" (you might need to adjust this bit if you are using language other than english) Search mode: exact Like this:
Ahh thank you! Had to change matching patern to regex (otherwise it wouldn't catch it) but seems to do the trick.
Does having overlays (ACT) in fullscreen windowless effect the "Bring to Foreground" feature? Noticed the flash notifications going off but that functionality doesn't seem to trigger
Shouldn't need regex, make sure you're not including any extra spaces or new lines, especially if you have used copying from message log feature (in next version newlines won't be copied)
If it still doesn't works without regex, can you attach file %appdata%\xivlauncher\pluginConfigs\NotificationMaster.json
?
As for bringing to foreground, there shouldn't be any interferences with act, but I'll test it additionally.
I wasn't able to replicate bring to front problem. Can you tell me which steps exactly you're doing to make it happen?

You don't need to include *
at the end of the message, just Battle commencing in
If it still doesn't works after removing *
, please attach file %appdata%\xivlauncher\pluginConfigs\NotificationMaster.json
to your message.
As for switching... I'll have to investigate that. I'll likely need to make debug build and send it to you to test it. I'll let you know when it's ready.
Inability to always bring game foreground is confirmed as a bug. However, this is a windows bug: winapi function responsible for activating window functions very poorly. Unfortunately, fixing it is not easy and more time will be needed to do so.
Yeah you are right, I checked and the the winapi function has a lot of caveats, most of which won't allow you to foreground another process. I tried implementing the AttachThreadInput
hack and minimizing ffxiv process but it didn't seem to work :(
And you were right. In the text box editor in dalamud there was no trailing white space, but when I looked at the saved config json, there was a lot of whitespace + the new line stuff. Deleting that fixed it!
https://github.com/Eternita-S/NotificationMaster/compare/master...perks:window-foreground-hack?expand=1 if you want to take a look maybe I did something wrong there
Thank you! I'll try to give it a test and see if it's enough.
Unfortunately AttachThreadInput doesn't works reliably. minimize + restore trick seems to do the job though
Sometimes in PF I will alt tab while people discuss strats, sometimes however they will start the countdown early -- is there a way for the plugin to notify on countdown start?
