[Script] WME Fix UI Memorial Edition - v1.55.257 (20231208)
Today marks the 1 month anniversary of the passing of Iain House, who counted amongst his other numerous Waze achievements, creation of the much loved and used script WME Fix UI.
Given how many people, myself included, make use of this script in order to tame the excesses of the WME UI designers every time we edit, there was a strong desire to ensure that his script lived on. Partly because it's just too good to be allowed to slowly depreciate as WME updates continue to break functionality, partly because there's still a very real need to keep reminding the WME devs that some of us really aren't happy at their concepts of what a good editor UI should look like, and partly to act, in whatever small way it can, as a memorial to and a reminder of Iain.
Hence the introduction of the WME Fix UI Memorial Edition. Whilst I've taken on the responsibility for publishing new releases of this script, by no means have I taken over the script overall. As with the original version, this remains a community effort - this first update alone features contributions both from myself and two other scripters, and the expectation is that this will continue with future releases.
So whether it's providing fixes for whatever latest thing the devs manage to break, or providing new functionality, anyone is welcome to submit code updates to me for inclusion in a future update. Please just bear one thing in mind when coming up with submissions - Fix UI was always designed around the concept of being a lightweight low-resource script for making relatively simple but useful adjustments to the WME interface, and I'd very much like to keep it that way moving forwards.
And yes, the name is a bit of a mouthful, so just as the original could be abbreviated to WME FU, so this version can be similarly abbreviated to WME FUME. Because being left to fume in rage at the decisions of the WME designers was what spurred Iain to write the original...
Here then it is. Version 1.0.257 of WME FUME.
Please note: As we don't have access to the original script repository on Greasyfork, there was no way for us to release this version in a way that allows it to auto-update from the earlier WME FU. You will therefore need to uninstall the old version and then install this version. Your existing script settings should however be carried over, and future updates will then auto-update as normal.
