Improvments for the GUI of Tease Ai Java

[classicalquestion]

Hi everyone,

it would be awesome if you could take a moment to participate in this short pole.
You have up to three votes.
If I missed something you would like to see, please write it down in the answer section below and I will add it to the poll asap.

I chose "other" because I would like to see Mac OS compatibility.

It should work the same way on mac as it does on Windows. If you are having problems on Mac I’d love to hear about them so I can get them addressed.

I'm still using the old TeaseAI, partly because Miss Blue isn't ported yet, but also because the UI is too bare bones. Little things, like I know you can set the Domme portrait on the main screen, but I only know this because you can in the old one. There's no indication in the Java version that this is possible. The main screen is a slab of gray (by default) with a couple default Java elements plopped on it and nothing really defined or sectioned off.

It's nice that you can change the colours around, but the app currently doesn't account for pretty much any combination. I changed the background to purple, which made the buttons completely unreadable. So I changed the buttons to a different colour, but I can only really pick light colours because the font is black and there doesn't seem to be a way to change this. Speaking of: 'Lazy Sub' / 'Dynamic Answers' are also black, so any background you choose turns these invisible as well. You can save themes though, and that's super neat!

Understandably things need to be prioritized. Personalities and base functionality is more important than looking pretty. But I'm definitely all for improving the GUI. Weirdly, I actually like the the base look of the old app.

Hopefully this doesn't come off as complaining. I like what everyone is doing, and the whole thing with improving on TeaseAI is really exciting. I'd love to contribute somehow.

You have some good points. I'll make sure to keep these things in mind.

Oh, is this about the browser interface which is replacing the old Flash tease? I guess I thought this poll was about the Windows app that 1885 had been responsible for getting started.

Neither. This is the new generation of the program 1885 created. Its simililar to TAI in some ways but less buggy and accessible on mac.

Okay then! I’m just learning about this now. Excellent, thanks!

I also went for "other" being improved stability/reduce memory utilization.

some of this I think is UI related... on my older windows system if I leave TAJ open for long periods of time I sometimes "lose graphics" in the window and need to restart.... I also see typical memory allocations of ~2GB which is pretty huge. (ok so maybe this isn't exactly UI, but its UI impacting)
