Did you read and care about this:

Quote: "In order to bypass this warning on macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later, you'll need to attempt to open the app first, then go to System Settings > Privacy & Security and scroll down where you'll find a note that the FET app was blocked, after which you can choose to Open Anyway. The dire warnings may make you uncomfortable (they make me uncomfortable!), and you can avoid these warnings if you download the source code and compile the app yourself. Of course, if you're here, you are probably looking to avoid that step! After choosing to Open Anyway, the app will open normally, and you won't need to do this again until you install a new version. (Of note, even if you compile the app yourself, as soon as you try to run the app on a computer different than the one that compiled it, you'll have to follow these steps to use the app.)

In order to bypass this warning on macOS versions prior to Sequoia (macOS 15), right click (or control-click) on the FET app and select "open" (you may need to do this a second time before the option to open the app is available). This step is only necessary the first time you run the app after downloading."

The other only variant is that we pay 99$ each year to apple. But there are much to less donations to FET to pay that.

@Liviu: Have a look at post #6 in this topic. there is a "link". in fact it is old the folder name. But if you click on that "link", then you will get to a strange app.

Thank you for asking.

Please write an e-mail to me:
u6m4@timetabling.de

Due to the small number of customers, I calculate the price individually, depending on the purchasing power of the country, the school size, and the desired features.

I will tell you more detailed by e-mail. Please let me also know if all is working fine so far or if there is a missing feature.

Good question.
If your timetable is not too difficult (or in worst case if we don't have better ideas) i suggest this as an quick and "dirty" solution:

Just set "not available" times for that 2 guys; so that it is impossible for them to have overlapping shifts.

I think your idea 2nd method with 6 activities + 2 dummy activities is "wrong", because in your variant it might happen that the 2 dummies are at the first and the last day. So in fact also "consecutive". So you might also add a max 7 days constraint for that 2 dummy activities. I guess this "fixed" method 2 is faster than method 1.

If you ask me: There are so many other things constraints that are more important, you should care about your idea only if you have got an simple data set and all other constraints are successfully added. Don't forget that there are so many things that can affect your "good spreading". Like an ill teacher, an ill student, a public holiday, a project day, ... . In my opinion you will spent too much time into spreading it "too well". Just use a simple min n day constraint and it is fine.

Well, his idea is not about the xml file. His idea is that you can write (or even speak) and just say "There is a new teacher at our school. Please add Mr. Smith. He is not available on Monday." and then the AI adds the teacher name and adds a not available time constraint.

That is much too much text on a single screen. Don't forget that some guys work with an 13" display and 1366 x 768 Pixels only.

Sadly a very big task. You can't just add a text editor and add an already existing LLM. It won't work that way.

Good question.
Also what about "hidden" tags. Must be removed first.

Sadly difficult.

It is easy if the activities contains only 1 tag, but it will be more difficult if there are 2 tags.

Example:
activity 1: Tag "C"
activity 2: Tag "B" and "D"
activity 3: Tag "E" and "A"
activity 4: Tag "A" and "E"

So first: Just we care about the order? So should be activity 3 the same order as activity 4?
And after that: How to order activity 3 and 1?

Please read the chapter "Years, groups and subgroups":

Ask again if you still don't understand it.
