The app is empty? #136

Open RepressedNerd opened 3 years ago

RepressedNerd commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I'm not sure if there's something extra I need to do, but I downloaded the mater zip file and the application zip file. But the app is completely empty.

If there's something I need to do, could you please walk me through the steps?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, you need to "populate" the application with one (or more) cursor sets, in MouseCape-speak called .cape files. So, get a cursor set, probably as .zip and unzip, a .cape should be produced. Import this .cape in MouseCape (Cmd+O). If all goes well, it should appear within the app. Let me know how you go with this. Cheers, Nord Screenshot 2020-09-22 at 08 48 54

If you want assistance, it helps if you are more clear about your request.

M1 Man Mini I have the same. empty window. I imported com.maxrudberg.svanslosbluehazard.cape Both the app and the cape are in the downloads folder. Helper installed.

I think it is better to have the application in the Application folder. How did you import the .cape file and the window remains empty?

TeslaOwnerTips commented 3 years ago

Done. Same result. Window empty. Untitled 2

To further narrow this issue down:

what size is your com.maxrudberg.svanslosbluehazard.cape? It should be around 2.3MB. If not, try downloading it again by right-clicking on the link 'View raw' and "Save as ...'.
did you try to import this .cape with Cmd+O?

That was it :) Small file. I initially used this one from the code folder. https://github.com/alexzielenski/Mousecape/blob/master/Mousecape/com.maxrudberg.svanslosbluehazard.cape I am now using the file linked to from the readme.
