[Feature request]: Customize message withou json #1440

Windows 11

Problem description

I find myself routinely messing up the JSON file when I try to modify messages. Possibly because Stretchly is mixing something up if I modify when it's not fully exited. I'd like a better way to change messages, either built in to software options or robustness when both editing and having app open.

Possible solution

Please fix the JSON or whatever is causing the issue, or add a tab that allows editing of messages.

Alternative solutions

I don't really see one. It's the 50 default messages are well though out but not for everyone. Combing through the JSON and hoping not to erase the wrong code isn't the most user-friendly.

Hi, sorry to hear about the troubles you had :(

Unfortunately, I work on this in my free time, which is limited, so I have to carefully choose what I work on and what I don't. Right now, it's best to always check the formatting of JSON with some tool like https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/

Hi Jan,

Thank you so much! I'm sorry I know my post was rude and I wanted to delete it. I had just worked 12 hours straight and was frustrated.

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to reach out. Your app is really wonderful and has been a great help. I think I've supported before but at least now I can message you that as well

Have a great day or evening, Michael
