Updates

[Lisa Anderson]

How often is KoolMoves updated? If I buy KoolMoves, are the updates free or is there a cost? Is there a list of items that will be included on the next update?

[Bob Hartzell]

Updates are free until next June. There will be a new update within the next month. This is what I am working on -

1. Added ability to make group of shapes a button
2. Added ability to have multiple shapes in a button state
3. Added another method of screen capture that captures from a playing swf
4. Added Navigation Overview
5. Added saving of default tweens value
6. Added ability to use button names in action script
7. Added import options to import swf as an object
8. Added display of object names for some object types
9. Added choice of pixels or points for text size
10. Added color samples to Fill Dialog
11. Improved rendering of text in the display environment
12. Fixed several minor resource leaks

Since everyone is suggesting requests, The (9.)added choice of pixels or points for text size as a default would be nice.

Also when you use actionscript you need four clicks to get into the menu and another two to get out. This seems excesive when degugging a script. ( and I must debug like crazy to get a script to work).

In the action script editor, you can click on the question mark and the syntax library comes on. If you could copy, paste here or just double click, that would make things easier.

just my 2 cents.

I think I having been thinking of the same thing as you tmoore for some time now. When viewing the Syntax Library, a double click on a Syntax would add it to the Action Script Editor window.

There's a few more feature request I would like but not sure if they're possible and I don't want to overload Bob. I usually just see what he adds himself.

At one time I think that was the original idea for the interface but it got put on a back burner.

I would think that a copy and paste type of deal may also work as well.

I may be missing somethin' really obvious here, but ...

The demo download says version 4.4.4 and my version is only 4.4

I'm a little confusticated .. where can I download an update for my full version? Is there one?

Thanks from Mr. Confused Parrot!

[Bob Hartzell]

In a week or so I will issue a broadcast email for the upgrade to 4.4.4. If you want it now, email me.
