Version 1.0.0 Beta 3 is Released


Changes for 1.0 beta 3:

  • [DATABASE FIXED] Fixed an automatic list bug that occurred when lists were deleted. The set of automatic lists has to be reset to the initial state to guarantee integrity, so existing lists will be removed and must be recreated.

  • [DATABASE ADDED] Added new prep time types to database.

  • [ADDED] Added Help menu item for sending feedback email.

  • [ADDED] Added Help menu item for opening the support message board.

  • [ADDED] Changed Preferences restart alert displayed after changing library locations to add quit button.

  • [ADDED] Added type ahead to My Lists table.

  • [ADDED] Changed behavior of table and outline editing so that ending editing keeps the row that was edited selected, rather than moving selection to another row.

  • [FIXED] Enabled "Delete From Library" when in a Library list instead of "Remove From List."

  • [FIXED] Fixed missing images used for related items.

  • [FIXED] Item view now refreshes when a related item is deleted.

  • [FIXED] Fixed list refresh problem that occurred when new items were added to sub lists.

  • [FIXED] Print no longer enabled when something not printable is selected.

  • [FIXED] Cached lists now get updated correctly after an item is saved.

  • [FIXED] Fixed cases where pressing OK in editor without ending editing in table would not save the last value entered.

  • [FIXED] Properly expand a list when a new sub-list is added to it so the name can be set.

  • [FIXED] When switching from one list in the "My Lists" table to another, items in outline view are now restored to the expanded and collapsed states that were previously set by the user.

  • [FIXED] Replaced "New List" and "New Automatic List" menu items in "My Lists" context menu with proper "New" submenu for creating lists. The New --> List item now properly creates a new "My Lists" list as well.

  • [FIXED] Type-ahead combo boxes now get updated correctly after new items are added.

  • [FIXED] Fixed a problem that occurred when a new item was added to a user list, and then deleted without quitting the application. The item would get removed from the related "My" list when it shouldn't have, even though it was still in the database.

  • [FIX] Fixed a typo in WineNote editor.

  • [FIX] Can now correctly make relationships with recipes when a wine note is selected.
