The Microsoft Store carries one frame of a window at rest, and the listing sells an editor #5

Description

@anderix

The Windows recipe declares one shot with no actions in it, on the grounds that Tommy Flyleaf is a viewer. It has not been one since 0.2.0, and the listing it illustrates sells an editor at length.

What was verified, 2026-09-18

packaging/windows/shots.ps1 still has one recipe:

function Get-Shots {
    # The window on the sample file, and no actions in it. This application
    # shows a file and does not edit it, so an interface at rest is what it
    # does rather than a frame of a viewer standing in for an editor.
    Shot '01-window' @()
}

The live Microsoft Store listing is that one frame, 01-window.png, while packaging/store-listing.toml sells the opposite in both languages: editing values by kind, adding and renaming and converting keys, undo and redo.

What it costs

Apple refused Segler 0.1.0 under guideline 2.3.3 — the screenshots do not show the actual app in use — for four frames of a window at rest, and the correction was another submission and another pass through review. The Microsoft Store has not refused this one, which is not the same as it being right.

ship now refuses a set whose frames repeat, which catches a recipe whose actions did nothing. It cannot catch a recipe that declares no actions at all; that is this.

Moved from anderix/ship#29.
