Ask in Java Discussion Boards[^] or in Quick Answers[^], you might get better answers and more viewers than here.

Sorry... It seems I had understood your message wrongly. I just paid too much atention to the "java code"

If the question is about how to publish an article and share the code here in Codeproject, then this was exactly the right forum for it.

I should have read more carefully. Sorry for that

If you mean to share it here then you need to write an article with all the details, and add the code as a download. See https://www.codeproject.com/info/Submit.aspx[^] for details.

I am not used to java, so I can't really say what is best from the options you said.

But the usual way to publish here is to add a zip with the source code to the article, so everyone interested can download, check what they want and then compile on their own.

You might publish the equivalent of the windows *.exe, but additionally, not as only download.

I recommend you to have a look to:

Sorry to bother you... I solved my one problem. (And posted said solution on
the duplicate post... and forgot to ever check back here.) Under File in
Android Studio is "Export to zip" Which I not previously noticed. I used that.
My article is complete and packaged and will be email submitted today.

Thanks and sorry I was a bother.

You were not bothering us at all... The error was mine, because I didn't read your message correctly, you did it right. This forum is to ask for help composing / posting articles.

Glad to see you solved it yourself. Looking forward to see your article Smile | :)

I've recently written an article which has been later checked and corrected by CodeProject editor. Great work, thank you! There are some proposed changes, however, which I would like to discuss and, maybe, express a bit differently.

What is the preferred way to do this? Should I simply prepare an update to my article and post it as usually or should I somehow contact the editor directly?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It looks like the abstract is taken from the intro. And that the first image (the histogram) is a copy of the last one but only belongs at the end.

That's another point. Which should be said to the author. I mean the format issues with the code snippets, it sadly is something that often happens, when blogs get fed.

When you type something into the comment box before clicking on something other than "Approve", where does the comment go? I've never seen these comments from anyone else. Is there a way for moderators to see them? Can the author see them, or do you have to add a comment to the article itself?

Nelek12-Apr-20 0:08

We moderators can see more things than normal users, yes. But there is not "Poll results" of the clicks to be seen.

It is approved and we can see, who approved it.
Or it is nuked, and we can see, who nuked it (this is not always consistent, but that's another history)

User should get a notification about the results (approved / nuked and reason), but if it says the clicks of the options... no idea, that have been added relative recently and I my last Tip is older than that.

About the moderation board... Do you sometimes see messages i.e. "not an article", "format issues" or similars by other people? Then you see the same board, than I can see.

When you post something in the comment by voting then it auto generates a message in the board with "My Vote of X" and the body is your comment of the vote box.

@sean-ewington
I can see articles/tips/blogs (but not posts) that need to be approved, as well as the reviewers who voted on them and how. But when I approve an article, or say that it should be a tip, or that it has formatting issues or whatever, there's a box where I can enter comments before clicking on my selection. And I'm wondering where comments typed into that box go, because I never see them afterwards, and never see any from other reviewers. It's similar, but not the same, as the comment you can enter when voting on an article.

That's protectors only. The spam filters. We have to choose, let it through or send it to limbo.

If it's the reporting box, it gives me a little not when I look at the report itself. Very helpful.

Hello, I am experiencing this again, but I forgot how did I solve it the last time Smile | :)

I have an article to publish and most of the images are wider than 640/700 px. So I would like to upload the original images and to restrict their width to 640 by width tag. But I want users to be able to click on them and see the image in original size. This is important especially for bigger screenshots with code. I initially did that like < a href="address_of_bigimage.png" >< img src="smallimage.png" />< a/> (there are some spaces put in the html part only for this comment, so that it appears as html and not be autoformatted).

Can this be done in an easier manner? If not, what will be the address of all images for the article - it should be code project domain, then KB (knowledge base) and then some number I guess?

Thanks in advance
