Version 1.0.6
August 20th, 2004
Features:
- Added the "Tips..." link to the "Help" menu.
- Relaxed the demo restrictions slightly by allowing five document saves per session.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a bug that could cause a lockup if changing a calendar document's time zone. This resulted in a scheduled entry being bumped to the following day.
- Fixed a bug where the "Remember calendar view" preference setting was having no effect.
Version 1.0.5
January 30th, 2004
Features:
- Added the Microsoft Entourage email bridge script (configured in Preferences). This allows email messages to be sent using Entourage as the conduit.
Bug Fixes:
- Eliminated several bugs related to posting multiple event notifications at the same time. This applies to failing to dismiss a notification alarm for a length of time (such as being away from your computer) and having another event come due.
- Fixed a crashing problem related to deleting sets of repeated entries. The problem would only occur while running in demo mode, however.
- Fixed a problem with sending email messages containing double-quote (") characters. Such messages could possibly generate errors and fail to send.
Version 1.0.4
November 25th, 2003
Features:
- More optimal build settings, resulting in smaller, faster executing program.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a couple bugs regarding date & time entry on pre-Panther systems, as well as some application preferences related bugs.
Version 1.0.3
October 24th, 2003
Features:
- Extensively tested to function properly under Mac OS X 10.3 ("Panther").
- Built with GCC 3.3 for performance increases across-the-board.
- Implemented automatic update detections.
- Added a the COMMAND-I key equivalent to invoke the entry information panel.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a bug where applying changes to the duration of a calendar entry in a related set would result in the incorrect duration being applied to other entries in the set.
- Fixed a rare problem where alarms would sometimes not be displayed by the background alarm sentinel.
- Fixed a bug where, in rare circumstances, alarm entries added to a new document would not get scheduled by the background alarm sentinel.
- Fixed a bug where, for some international regions, Week and Day view would not display the correct names for months & weekdays.
- Fixed a problem where, for some international regions, date entry must be supplied in standard US format (MM/DD/YY) for DayChaser to correctly interpret them.
Version 1.0.2
March 10th, 2003
Features:
- Added a unique identifier code to exported entries. This allows exported data to be modified outside of DayChaser, then synchronized with existing DayChaser entries on import.
- Added a "Draw with gradient" preference setting which enables/disables the gradient effect drawn on calendar entry backgrounds. Allows certain color combinations to display better, plus offers improved rendering speed on slower machines.
- Implemented an "Add Entry..." menu item in DayChaser's Dock menu, providing a convenient shortcut for creating new calendar entries when DayChaser is not the active application.
- Added automatic update detection to the "Help" menu.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed several problem relating to handling calendar entries posted on days which transition from Standard Time to Daylight Savings Time.
- Improved the handling of international date and time formats when creating or editing calendar entries.
Version 1.0.1
December 20th, 2002
Features:
- Added the ability to delete all entries in a repeated set with a single action.
- Added the ability to play a user defined sound when displaying reminder alerts.
- Created an email bridge script for Mailsmith 1.5.
- Added the ability to easily repeat annual calendar entries.
- A default category may now be designated for all new calendar entries.
- The current calendar view is now saved with the document and is (optionally) preserved when opening saved documents.
- The header cell of the current day is now drawn with the "current day" background color in Week and Day views.
- Initial descriptions for new entries now match the type of entry that was created.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a problem interpreting the contents of date entry fields on some foreign (non-U.S.) language systems.
- Eliminated a slight timing problem that could cause some reminder alerts not to get displayed.
- Fixed a problem when resizing entries in Week or Day view that could allow you to resize beyond the top edge of the view.
- Corrected an inconsistent use of terminology in the Entry Repeater function.
- Fixed a problem in the Entry Repeater where specifying invalid criteria could result in an ending date that was far in the future. Correcting the criteria and tabbing through the ending date field could result in an excessive number of repetitions being generated.
- Eliminated a very obscure chance of corrupting a calendar database while deleting entries.
- Added better support for systems which have been hacked by users to display time in a non-standard way (Jaguar & later).
- The DayChaser application is now brought to the foreground whenever the user chooses to "View" an entry that has generated a reminder alert.
- Increased the size of the time zone text field in the Calendar Entry Editor window to better accommodate very long time zone names.
- Fixed a problem where creating a new calendar entry without any date or time being selected would use the time zone of the computer rather than the time zone of the document being edited.
