Assuming you don't have anything to dump, you can reach a certain compromise with the existing tools. You would also need to get the Stocks plugin by Falconne, as it eases the work on undumping items.

As you stated, cleanowned scattered or any variation of it but all marks those items to dump. With the Stocks plugin, you access the stocks, press e and they you can type "dump". This will filter all items marked for dumping. Then you press Shift-A and then Shift-D. This will select all items on the filtered list and unmark them.

Thanks Doktoro Reichard and expwnent.

R3 and R4 didn't have DFusion which for some reason I thought was doing the overlays. But its all good now.

Yeah, so I've got some questions, centered around DFHack scripts:
First, my game crashes around a season after setting a stockpile to auto-melt (q-Shift M) with the DFHack script. Is it just me, or is there a bug (and a fix?) ?
Second, I use autobutcher a lot, but sometimes... It just doesn't set the cats to butcher. No, they are not pets. Yes, I started the script. Am I the only one?
Third, the workflow plugin sometimes doesn't unsuspend protected jobs. Am I the only one?
Last, The "Alt" key is seen as permanently pressed by the scripts from DFHack. Am I the only one?

Nope, this is a known issue - when you alt-tab away from DF and come back, it thinks that alt is still held.  I've heard that this is a bug in the (old) version of SDL that Toady uses; he's not likely to update the graphics code for some time.  Tapping alt should (temporarily) fix this. 

A question for anyone else:  Can dfhack detect when DF comes back into focus?  If so, could a script be written that automates this solution?

Can you upload a save for me where this happens (and tell me which stockpile has the issue).

It occurs even with mousequery disabled, so I think it's a bug in the search plugin (disabling the plugin gets rid of the bug, obviously, since there's no search option).

I can't reproduce this so it's going to be hard to debug. So this happens any time you're in search mode and you click on the list?

And scripts are a bit of a mass anyway, there's no central script repository, not every modder uses github, and pushes the commits, so you may have a hard time hunting down the ones you need...that obviously needs some improvement, although in the last few months some new forums have been created to help with organization, so the situation is much better than it was before.

Speaking of GitHub, should I open a pull request for my stockflow plugin, or would you all prefer not to take over maintenance?  Granted, I'd be happier with it if I could convince the bookkeeper to update records more often...

Yeah. I managed to reproduce it on Linux (32-bit Ubuntu) just now. I'm not sure how platform-dependent this is, but it's occurring for me on both OS X and Linux. It's possible that it doesn't occur on Windows for some reason, but I haven't checked.

Sure. Just wait for a week or something, I'm a little busy at the moment.

I am interested in doing some research in the vmethods mentioned in this post, but am unsure how to go about it. Is there someone with more experience regarding these that could point me in the right direction to help me get started?

[PLANKS]

I posted this in another thread and didn't get any responses so I thought I'd put it here see if anyone knows whats going on.

Basically I'm building a pump stack thats really high. Higher than the ammount of Z levels that are available. So I'm using infiniteSky plugin to add levels in. Now here is where it gets kind of weird.

That open space next to the stairs is where I get a collapse everytime. It always collapses on the same level (165) and it happens on both stacks in the same place everytime. I can't really see a reason for it but because I've been hacking Z levels I figured dorf physics are acting up.

I found http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2012:Sky_support on the wiki and I think it might be related but I can't be sure.

Any ideas?

Here it is!
The offending stockpile is between the magma forges and the smelters. Phoebus graphics.
Hotkey 8 should bring you to the correct z-level. More info on the DFFD page.
Have fun

Weird things happen with sky support sometimes. This may seem obvious, but does saving and loading after building help?

[PeridexisErrant]

So despite having no lua at all, I've been fiddling around with scripts a bit - trying to fix the error thrown by log-region and expand exportmaps to cover all legends exports. 

I fixed log-region by adding a test (if df.world_site.find(df.global.ui.site_id) ~= nil then) that catches the nil value when a world is loaded in a non-fort mode.  It works!

On the other hand, exportlegends is not working, and I can't work out why.  Can someone take a look? 

Spoiler: exportlegends.lua (click to show/hide)

Code: (exportlegends.lua) [Select]

-- Experimental - export everything except site maps from legends mode
-- Based on the script 'exportmaps'

gui = require 'gui'

local vs = dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen()
local i = 0

local MAPS = {
[0] = "Standard biome+site map",
"Elevations including lake and ocean floors",
"Elevations respecting water level",
"Biome",
"Hydrosphere",
"Temperature",
"Rainfall",
"Drainage",
"Savagery",
"Volcanism",
"Current vegitation",
"Evil",
"Salinity",
"Structures/fields/roads/etc.",
"Trade",
}
function wait_for_legends_vs()
vs = dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen()
if i < 15 then
if df.viewscreen_legendsst:is_instance(vs) then
gui.simulateInput(vs, 'LEGENDS_EXPORT_DETAILED_MAP') -- "d" on screen some number internally
dfhack.timeout(10,'frames',wait_for_export_maps_vs)
else
dfhack.timeout(10,'frames',wait_for_legends_vs)
end
if i = 15
if df.viewscreen_legendsst:is_instance(vs) then
gui.simulateInput(vs, 'LEGENDS_EXPORT_MAP/GEN_INFO') -- "p" on screen some number internally
print('Exporting:  map/gen info')
i = i + 1
dfhack.timeout(10,'frames',wait_for_legends_vs)
end
if i = 16
if df.viewscreen_legendsst:is_instance(vs) then
gui.simulateInput(vs, 'LEGENDS_XML_DUMP_(INCOMPLETE)') -- "x" on screen some number internally
print('Exporting:  XML dump (incomplete)')
i = i + 1
dfhack.timeout(10,'frames',wait_for_legends_vs)
end
end
end
function wait_for_export_maps_vs()
vs = dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen()
if df.viewscreen_export_graphical_mapst:is_instance(vs) then
vs.anon_13 = i -- anon_13 appears to be the selection cursor for this viewscreen
print('Exporting:  '..MAPS[i])
i = i + 1
gui.simulateInput(vs, 'SELECT') -- 1 internally, enter on screen
dfhack.timeout(10,'frames',wait_for_legends_vs)
else
dfhack.timeout(10,'frames',wait_for_export_maps_vs)
end
end

if df.viewscreen_legendsst:is_instance( vs ) then -- dfhack.gui.getCurFocus() == "legends"
wait_for_legends_vs()
elseif df.viewscreen_export_graphical_mapst:is_instance(vs) then
wait_for_export_maps_vs()
else
dfhack.printerr('Not in legends view')
end


Edit:  I should also mention that I've tried "gui.simulateInput(dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen(), 'x')" and variations - I suspect I'm just getting the input to pass in the wrong format.  Help?  (Now googleing 'keycodes'...)  edit2: 80, '80', etc aren't working either.

[Quietust]

If you're trying to simulate input, you need to specify keybinding codes in the format df.interface_key.KEYBIND_NAME (e.g. df.interface_key.LEGENDS_EXPORT_MAP).

[PeridexisErrant]

Thanks!  That's got it working way better... I now have a different issue, which I (edit:) fixed.
