Version 15.03 (05/15/2020)

Version 15.03 is out, with a new theme and some design refinements!

1/ Printoid Manual and tutorials

I’ve added a new menu in the app: the Printoid manual.

It only shows you the list of manuals, tutorials and pages already available on Printoid.net. But since I still receive a lot of questions for things already described on the website… let’s try to add them directly in the app, may they will have more visibility!

2/ New theme: Blue 2020

A new theme is coming with this version, as you can see on the previews screenshots.

Blue 2020 brings you a deep blue theme, it looks very cool on your device!

3/ Refinement of the graph of temperatures

The graph was a bit buggy. After few minutes showing on the screen, it became to have strange behaviors. I’ve fixed it in this version, now it runs flawlessly even after 24h displayed on the screen.

I’ve also refined a bit the axis management:

  • The X axis (the time) has now a fixed amount of elements (6) even when zooming on the axis
  • The X axis labels has been refined to show better and more accurate values
  • The Y axis labels are now a bit bigger and show the complete unit (°C for Celsius, instead of only °)
  • Every entry are now spaced by 2 seconds (the app plots a new point every 2 seconds by default)
  • When the app connects to your OctoPrint server, it fetches 500 entries (if 500 entries are available). So the app shows you a temperature history of 500 * 2 seconds = 1000 seconds (~16 minutes)
  • The maximum amount of entries in the graph is 1000 entries (while printing, it represents ~15 minutes of history)
  • The oldest entry (the maximum window of time displayed in the graph) is set to 20 minutes (then you will not show entries older than 20 minutes on the graph)

4/ Refinement of the control buttons

I got a feedback from a user that, the control buttons were not clear enough, and they look like to a fat old keyboard.

This way I’ve bring some refinements:

  • The Home XY and Home Z buttons are now labelled. So there is no more confusion between both.
  • The custom command buttons (with the option ‘show on dashboard’ selected) are now looking a bit smaller than the main control buttons, and their border are a bit translucent.

I hope you will like these changes 😉

Progressive release:

  • If the update is still not available yet for you, please be patient, it will available very soon for everyone.
  • Please do not ask me for the APK by email, Google Play is the only vector of distribution you shall trust. Moreover, I don’t not compile APK files anymore, but rather Android AppBundle only.

New York Yankees: Good news and bad news following embarrassing loss to Baltimore

New York Yankees: Good news and bad news following embarrassing loss to Baltimore

Gerrit Cole, New York Yankees

The New York Yankees suffered another embarrassing loss against the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday evening. With the offense putting up a putrid one run, starting pitcher Gerrit Cole was also batted around in the sixth inning to extend the Orioles lead to 6-0. Cole lasted 6.0 innings, tossing 101 pitchers. He allowed four hits and five runs, striking out 10 batters.

Offensively, the Yankees were only able to record four total hits, two of which came from Clint Frazier.

FINAL SCORE: 6-1

Good news and bad news for the New York Yankees:

GOOD NEWS:

The good news, starting shortstop Gleyber Torres returned to the team on Saturday. He posted one hit over three at-bats, and also earned a walk. It was a positive thing for him to get on base and start his return strong, but the remainder of the Yankees’ offense failed to produce. Catcher Gary Sanchez struck out four times over four at-bats, lowering his average to .130. At this point, the Yankees may consider starting Erik Kratz in a regular role, considering Sanchez’s offense is nonexistent.

Despite giving up a home run within his first three pictures, relief arm Miguel Yajure tossed two impressive innings. He recorded two strikeouts and allowed two hits.

In other news, the Bombers kept Deivi Garcia at the alternate site and will utilize him again in the coming days. They also retained Clarke Schmidt as a relief arm in hopes of activating him more frequently with little rest for their more accomplished options.

BAD NEWS:

The bad news remains consistent for the Yankees, as their starting pitching has struggled a bit the past few days and their offense has been quiet. Scoring one run against a young Orioles starter in Keegan Akin was tumultuous at best. While the Yankees started strong in the 2020 season, they are quickly falling behind and could be out of postseason contention if they keep playing like this.

Getting Torres back was a big deal, but they sorely miss their talisman in Aaron Judge. Manager Aaron Boone stated before the game that Giancarlo Stanton was running at about 80% but Judge is behind him in his rehab. He hopes they both will be available for the postseason.
