Tag the Crackteam and Project

[duraki]

Tied to #8 so we can track it. This will remove "Days left until expiration" and will be replaced with crackteam and project name.

I think I will make this happened in version v70. this is gonna be a big construction project for us.

• Remove "Days left until expiration"
• Remove "Register now"
• Replace label with project name.
• Make some change in Register panel.

Yes, v70 really deserves this feature to be implemented. I'm with you on this one. I think we can tackle first and third from your list by doing it over *.nib files we reverse engineered a few months early? We just need to make sure the offset size is correct and we don't overwrite or underwrite the byte positions. Right now, when I open Sketch it says "21 days left - Register now". First one is counter + NSString implemented inside the Sketch.app binary while the Register now is in the nib / UI files from Sketch directory.

I can try to implement this feature too so we can collab and push together.

I'm sorting Crackteam tag this week hopefully. :) Then we can go w/ v70 at least.

Changing the Registration Window

Ok tagging the crakcteam as per this #11 (comment). Steps taken are visible below (tested under clean Sketch v69):

FIrst thing first, I searched upon few substrings in Sketch.app bundle directory.

$  grep -R "SK3" */**
Contents/Resources/zh-Hans.lproj/MSRegistrationWindow.strings:/* Class = "CocoaBindingsConnection"; ibShadowedIsNilPlaceholder = "SK3-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000"; ObjectID = "kCf-Hg-sTQ"; */
Contents/Resources/zh-Hans.lproj/MSRegistrationWindow.strings:"kCf-Hg-sTQ.ibShadowedIsNilPlaceholder" = "SK3-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000";
Contents/Resources/zh-Hans.lproj/MSRegistrationWindow.strings:/* Class = "NSTextFieldCell"; placeholderString = "SK3-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000"; ObjectID = "yfB-jh-Is0"; */
Contents/Resources/zh-Hans.lproj/MSRegistrationWindow.strings:"yfB-jh-Is0.placeholderString" = "SK3-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000";

So, instead of editing raw Registration Window nib/xib via NibUnlocker from Charles, I figured out that these references are reused through resources / localization.

So I copied this MSRegistrationWindow.strings class and pasted it upon en.lproj/ (default localization), like so, and edited the localization:

$ cd /Applications/Sketch.app 
$ cp Contents/Resources/zh-Hans.lproj/MSRegistrationWindow.strings Contents/Resources/en.lproj/

# => continue editing string xrefs
$ vim Contents/Resources/en.lproj/MSRegistrationWindow.strings

All changes as follows:

MSRegistrationWindow.txt

(Copy this file to /Applications/Sketch.app/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/ as MSRegistrationWindow.strings)

---

End Results
