Is there a way to manually trigger Safari 5's extension update check? - safari-extension

When developing Safari extensions, I'd like to be able to manually trigger an update check to ensure that my update.plist is correctly formatted and accessible. Has anyone found a way to do this? I haven't even been able to determine the standard update check interval.

You can force an update check by:
Opening Safari's Preferences
Selecting the Extension's Preference Pane
Clicking the "Updates" list item along the left hand side.
This will force an update check of all extensions you have installed.

Unable to manually trigger pipeline - Trigger button grayed out

The trigger button is grayed out and disabled. I cannot select it.
Pipeline has been published and zero errors on validation.
Pipeline is running on a schedule with no errors, but want to run manually as needed.
Tried Edge and Chrome
Pipeline-Before-Publish
Pipeline-After-Publish
Didn't repro on my side. Which browser do you use? Could you share a screenshot of the disabled trigger button?
It seems like a bug, here is a workaround:
on top of the trigger button, right click and then left click inspect
find the trigger tag and remove disable
What's your factory version? If it's preview (2018-07-01-preview), then publish/debug/trigger are all blocked. Please refresh the page and go to overview page, you will see a prompt dialog suggesting you move to GA version.

How to remove a tool window from tool window bar in Intellij IDEA?

For example Version Control tool window. I never use it. I use version control support, but not this tool window itself. How can I remove it from tool window bar?
I've found a plugin to hide certain tool windows
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/?id=1489
If you don't need to actually hide the button, but just don't want it in the way while looking for the buttons you do use regularly, you can always drag it to some side of the screen that you don't often use. (I rarely use the bottom-right, so I could move some things there.) That way, you don't see them when picking a tab, but you can still get to it if you need to. (And every once in a while, I suspect you may really want to look at that Version Control view.)

cannot edit in Realm Browser

I've read a few answers that say it's possible to edit database with Realm Browser but I can't.
I've got a base with two tables : category and specimen. The padlock top right is open. I can click on a new line, add text in fields or change text of existing fields. I go from one table to the other and back and the changes have been ignored.
I've clicked on add new object.
What am I missing?
thanks for any guidance
Are you hitting 'return' when you've finished editing a field? Additionally, there's a new test version of the Realm Browser available on its GitHub page: https://github.com/realm/realm-browser-osx/releases/tag/0.98.3
There were some issues with text fields ignoring input commands in OS X El Capitan, but that should be resolved on the App Store version of the Browser.
In any case, please try the latest version of the Browser with those instructions, and let me know how you go!

Is it possible to use a textarea for a Safari extension settings?

I've made a couple small Safari extensions. For one of them, I would like to collect a set of user-entered strings (e.g., URLs or URL patterns) using a textarea in the settings screen. The only setting types offered in the documentation are one line text, check box, slider, select lists, and radio buttons. I could use a one line text field as an ugly workaround, but I'm hoping there's a better option. I've googled for hints and looked through Safari extensions in GitHub, but haven't found an example of anyone doing this yet.
Does anyone have an example of how to use a textarea for a Safari extensions setting? Is there an undocumented feature I've not been able to find? Or is there a way to trigger a custom popup window from the settings?
Thanks for any tips.
No, there is no way to build a more complex UI inside the settings dialog. What extensions typically do is add a button (checkbox, even if it's not quite the correct element) in the settings page which then launches a separate Safari page which contains the full settings UI, written in HTML.
For an example of this, install uBlock and take a look at how it launches its setting UI.

Can't update Android Studio - no "Update and Restart" button

My Android Studio (0.4.3 now) often displays a message that is ready to update, but the alert does not have an "Update and Restart" button:
I want to install this update but I don't know how I can do this. After I click the "Remind Me Later" button few times, the fourth button on the left is sometimes visible, allowing me to download and install the update. I haven't discovered any pattern when this button shows up and when it doesn't.
Why isn't it always visible?
This is bug https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=56737. If you dismiss the dialog and check for updates again, you usually get the button you're looking for. I don't know why this happens.
I have found a temporary solution for this problem (until they release a fix for it).
When Android Studio opens and the update popup shows up without the button, close it with the X button.
Press Ctrl+Shift+A to open action search dialog, enter Event Log and open it.
There will be a message telling that Android Studio is ready to update and the word update is a link that will open a window with an Update and restart button.
Actually this issue is kind a bug not really a bug :). This is what you need to do
When an update is available, you'll see a balloon notification in the IDE.
Two important known issues:
1. The first time, you'll see a dialog that asks you to accept this channel. You need to press "More info" to accept this channel, otherwise you won't get notified about updates.
2. If you press the "Ignore This Update" button, there is currently no mechanism available to revert that decision and Android Studio will never tell you about that update ever again.
For more info. visit : Android Tools Project Sitebelow is snap from android tools official site
I am not sure why the button is not available, It might be possible that the version you have currently can't be upgraded to the latest version directly.
In such cases follow the steps mentioned below :
Download the latest OS respective Android Studio as zip(sdk excluded) from here :
http://tools.android.com/download/studio/canary
Extract the downloaded Zip file somewhere
Close Android studio if running.
Go to current Android Studio installation directory.
Take a backup(safer side) of that and replace everything except sdk directory
with the content of extracted Zip file .
This also allows you to update studio in an offline system.
Clicking on 'ignore updates' and rerunning Check for updates for a couple of times did the trick for me.
