Planbook 1.2 - MacUpdate

Planbook is software designed to manage a teacher's lesson plan book. In addition to the traditional functions of a planbook (manage an entire year of up to 20 classes- 12 a day), this software allows you to link documents to your lessons (a word document describing a lab, for example), search your planbook and export your planbook to HTML or directly to an FTP or .Macserver.

Version 1.2:

Users with weekly rotating lesson plans are no longer able to mess up their schedule rotation by creating holidays. Holidays shift the rotation schedule and this is not desired behavior for teachers with weekly rotating schedules. You are still able to designate non-school days by simply canceling the school day. This gives you the option to bump the days' lessons to the next occurrence of the course, but does not alter the rotation.
A bug that caused issues when wednesday had 12 lessons is fixed.
Planbook now is more thoughtful when providing feedback about the number of courses in a created planbook. Planbook won't let you create files with more than 12 lessons in a given day.
Creating a holiday always bumps the scheduled courses for that day to the next day. If you do not want to shift your schedule, choose cancel lessons rather than create holiday.

You can add times to your courses (Planbook-->Planbook Options menu item). Each course may meet at a different time on each type of school day. You can choose to show the times that courses meet in the main lesson view.
Lessons, holidays/cancelled days and daily notes may now be synced to iCal for viewing on your phone, for example. Lessons will be placed into calendars with the name of your course and will utilize the times that you entered for your schedule. You can choose which fields to sync (Planbook-->Planbook Options menu item). The sync is one-directional- from Planbook to iCal and not vice-versa.
Users can create cancelled school days using the Options-->Planbook Options menu item. These can be created singly or in bunches.

Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
