Known Issues 🔍
-

Copy paste not working on applescripts with dialog box (Remind Me and Color Picker). it can be solve with using app bundles instead of applescript files but i didnt add app bundles to releases because of privacy concerns, i want to keep all code open source. If you need copy-paste functions on these scripts save applescript files as app bundle then change file name in html file
-
Color picker not working sometimes. i added a applescript to fix that. Run ColorPickerFix in scripts folder then close color picker
