Feature request: Show subtitles for pictures #2

Open 1Theo opened 3 weeks ago

1Theo commented 3 weeks ago

I know, that there wasn't any recent work done to this program - which is totally fine because it still works great despite the lack of updates in the last years. Also, it seems that there is no alternative software anywhere with this functionality, neither FOSS nor paid.

There is only one missing feature from my point of view: There doesn't seem to be a way to see the subtitles for pictures. They are in the exported .csv files, but are not shown in the software. Is there any chance to include that feature? Or is maybe another software for reading the threema exports in a hassle-free way the reason you stopped working on this one and I was just not able to find it?

Even if there is neither, thanks for writing this program, it helped a lot!

Best regards, Theo

Hey Theo, glad to hear it still works and helped you 😄 I almost forgot about this app... I will try to implement support for picture subtitles, but right now I'm actually struggling to access my backup data. At least on iOS, there seems to be no option to simply create a ZIP file as backup anymore. Are you using Android?

I use it on an old export out of an android device. On iOS there only seems to be the option to export single chats, not the complete threema data like on android.

I could try to provide you some examples how the syntax looks like if that helps? And of course I am willing to try the fresh binaries on the full export and give feedback, if you want to give it a try.
