Developer Mode
WARNING: Using Developer Mode features can increase the chances of crashes and data loss. Use with caution.
To enable Developer Mode, start a new operation, or open an existing one, type KONAMI in the callsign input field, and press the [Send] key (or [RETURN] or [ENTER]) in your keyboard.
You should see a short message confirming that the mode is now enabled.
You can use this same procedure to toggle it off.
You will now find new features and options in the app, usually highlighted in an orange color.
Developer Mode Features
Unstable Versions
In the Deverloper Settings you can now select between three different “update channels”:
-
Stable: The default channel, with the most stable and tested versions.
-
Unstable: The latest versions, with new features and bug fixes, but not as well tested.
-
Bleeding Edge: Work in progress, with the newest features and bug fixes, but also the most likely to have issues.
After changing channels, you should use the option to “Check for new versions” to download the latest version from the selected channel.
Raw Data Export and Import
In Developer Mode you can now export and import raw data files used by PoLo, in the “QSON” data format used internally by the app.
You can export an operation in the Operation Settings tab. And you can import a QSON file as a new operation from the main Developer Settings screen.
