Commons-CSV would throw a RuntimeException in some cases of
bad CSV input. This was later changed to throwing an
IllegalStateException. Updating to v1.5 to pick-up the change.
Note that the second slide has been changed. Originally there was
text over the image with an arrow. This text could not be translated
and was part of the instruction. The arrow is really not needed,
so it has been removed with the overlay text.
Also, the originals folder has been removed. The screenshots which
were used to create the wizard images are in the metadata folder.
On Android SDK 24+ exposing a file Uri causes a failure.
Picking a file from a file chooser using data of a file://
Uri also hits this. As this is not necessary, removing the
Uri.
The preferred way to create a shortcut is through the launcher.
Although it is possible for an app to create shortcuts, there is
concern that allowing the app to do so may not be desirable
due to potentials for abuse.
As there is support now for adding shortcuts through the launcher,
this app do not need to also support creating them itself.
When a shortcut launches the view activity, if the activity
already exists it will get onNewIntent() called. This needs to
clear out the view items so the next card will be redrawn.
This will prevent shortcuts from creating many views, and causing
them to leak. However, do not use singleTop for all launches
of the view activity, else the edit mode cannot be entered.
This is largely unneeded, as shortcuts are directly supported
now, and the widget was a hacky replacement for shortcuts.
This reverts commit ebe6139a64.
When a card is being added or created, a checkbox will now
be presented asking if a shortcut should be made. If selected,
when saving a shortcut will be added to the home screen. The
shortcut will directly launch the given card in view mode.
This prevented the editing of cards, as the same activity
was used for viewing and editing, but the viewing "instance"
was calling finish(). It is simpler to remove the singleTop
option.
This reverts commit 4e02252b75.
On Android 7+ providing another activity a file:// Uri is
discouraged. This changes instead uses a content provider
backed by a FileProvider to give backup data to other
activities.
When importing backed up settings other activities may provide
data via a content URI. This is especially likely on Android 7+,
where providing a file URI is flagged as a security issue.
To support such activities, this commit enables supporting
content URIs for importing settings.
Soon more than files will be imported, as content URIs will
also be supported. This then makes the File argument for
onTaskComplete() not always useful, as there may not
be a direct file used. To this end, removing the File
argument as the caller should know what was passed
to the ImportExport task anyway.
Now that there are shortcuts which can launch card viewing activities
directly, if a user does not back out of the activity then there will
be a pile up of activities over time. To prevent this, only let
one such view activity exist at a time.
This adds app shortcuts for the most recently used cards.
When a new card is accessed, it is added to the shortcuts list.
When the list exceeds its maximum size, the least recently
used shortcut is discarded.
Android limits the maximum number of shortcuts to 5, however
it recommends in its documentation to limit this to 4. This
commit limits this to 3, however, as that is aesthetically pleasing.
By request, a project on Transifex was created to better
manage translations. To make things less confusing, instead
of using the MissingTranslations lint error, and thus needing
to add stub translations, the progress of translations is now
handled on Transifex.

This case was hit at least once by a user, though the scenario
is not known. If it is hit, post a message and bail gracefully,
until the reason can be determined.
When passing a phone to a clerk to scan the barcode, if the
phone is rotated and the screen reloads it can be bothersome
or confusion. To avoid this situation, a new option is
added to lock the screen.
A menu icon is now added which defaults as unlocked. When
touched the app sets its orientation to the "natural" orientation
of the device. When touched again the sensor dictates the
orientation of the device.
Even with passing a bundle with the layout ID sometimes
some users will encounter a situation where the _layout
variable is null. To avoid further issues, creating a
class for each intro slide, so the layout is encoded
into the class itself.
When reducing the pixel size of the width, if the height is not
scaled to match then 1D barcodes end up being squished and are
too narrow to scan. To avoid this, scale the height to match.
Then, when the barcode is loaded into a Bitmap it will scale up
to the correct size.
It was found that on a Galaxy S4 a barcode width of 400 px started
to see some blurriness, but 500 px still looked sharp. Reducing
the maximum width to 500 px.
