APFELZ  Ridiculous???

What is ridiculous about trying to make users happy with a need for a white background????

This is what I have written on the myTexts snow website:

In the last month I've received many mails from people with a need to use the (original) myTexts application with a white/bright background because they are eye-impaired (need to invert the screen colors etc.) and others having problems with their glossy screens or simply need a white 'paper' to be creative…

I have tried a lot to get this manged in one application to avoid confusion, offer this option to all people - but there is a lot more to 'tint' at runtime than just some textviews and to get this done without bracking the user-experience, the design and most of all: the quality…

Well - finaly I've decided to write a complete new application. And here it it is…

Once again - I would love to have this in one app - but this would result in lots of (ugly) sellouts - something I would never do - if you call this ridiculous I feel sorry. But to be honest - I am happy that many people do understand it and that they can now use myTexts, even if they are eye-impacted etc…

And by the way: the preferences are the only parts not being written new from ground up…

APFELZ  Drag and drop and directly click the object is not Mac-like?

And you would pay the (heavy) difference if I get other people on board to do something that only is needed by one or two out of thousands not having any problems?

Of course the app itself and and also the manual could be better, thats all a process - the first version even had no manual and this one really is much better than in earlier versions…

And the next version the app is better and the manual etc.

But even the best manual could not prevent that sometimes people don't look and don't try before they write comments about thinks supposed not to work or present, even if they all are there and working as expected :-)

(BTW - the manual even has an own chapter about resizing images with own screenshot about that)

APFELZ  Help wanted and need!

The only two persons having trouble with the latest version I know have written this here. No one wrote to me. So I really need to know if I made mistake I have to find as fast as possible or whatever may could cause this…

So if anyone else has this problem:

1. You data is not lost!

myTexts makes automatically backups and stores every entry as single text files too by default. So whatever happens - your data is save.

2. Please use the integrated Feedback tool to get in touch with me to solve the problem and to figure out what went wrong - all other 'users' will be thankful for your help :-)

I really need to know if this a 'bug' or not :-)

Thanks, Michael.

FARIBORZ  Dear developer, hello. I promptly received my serial number after having published my trouble feedback here. I really don't know the cause of this delay and don't want to further comment on this now that everything is OK. I DO HOPE this would not have caused you any ill feeling. In the Internet world such issues can happen. The most important thing is to solve them in one way or another. All Mac users know very well about the high quality of your products and their low prices. There's no need for presentation because they speak for themselves. However, I would like to take the opportunity to recommend them once again to all serious users who are looking for functional software at very reasonable prices. Thanks again for your support and all the best. Fariborz AMIRSHAHI - Verona (Italy)

APFELZ  An application is not a license file!!!!!

As explained directly beside the 'import-license-file-button' you can affix those stupid license files if needed and for not to touch the original they will be copied (and you can also select a custom path if needed)!

Of course if you copy the complete application instead of a single 3kb license file it may cause trouble!

And what I really do not understand is why people having problems are not able drop a line, so I can help???

BTW - if you don't like the given shortcuts - just take a look: Menu>Help - there are 'clean' menu-items you can apply your own shortcuts by using your System Preferences (Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts)…

SEMIOTICMONKEY  Example of a WorkFlow:

User working on a file in Schreiben ->

User switch to Mail to read a new mail ->

Schreiben begin to jump off the dock disturbing user's actual task ->

User forced to swith application every 30 seconds to click ok and dismiss the dialog.

Another example:

User working on a file in Schreiben ->

User writing something requiring his attention ->

User distracted by the act of writing pushed to click ok and dismiss the dialog.

and so on and on.

As you can see, the problem here lies in a UX POV.

From User Experience point of view, the demo remainder is a plague. In every possible manner it distract the user from his workflow.

If this is your main target, well, mission accomplished.

If your mission is to let the User demo your product, well, mission failed.

In this state the User cannot use (so test) your application in a full time workflow, neither in a multitasking workflow. You have been thinking to the User testing your application as a User playng around to see if he likes what he see for few minutes not as a User effectively using your application making something with it.

Why this? It is difficult to implement a demo remainder unobstrusive as 100.000 other applications out there?

SCRIVENS  Yes, the conversion engine may be the same and you may guarantee that engine's performance, but if I can't import an existing 570 page Word .doc to see how Briefe handles large files for things like global format changes, search & replace etc then the application itself cannot be tested against it's competition (Mariner Write, Bean, Nisus, Mellel, Pages etc). This is the only wp app I've come across that has not been able to import other formats in unregistered mode.

SCRIVENS  It's not so much case of replacing Word for heavy duty word processing as finding something simpler than Word (overkill but ubiquitous) which can still do the utility side of word processing in a fast and easily managed manner. I opened the Word doc in Word and did a copy & paste into both Briefe and Schreiben then saved the file in Schrieben format and used it to test both apps. The doc is 579 pages - each page is one CD's track listing in table form - so the actual data in the file is quite small but the file size is large and it does give any wp app a pretty good workout. Both Breife and Schrieben take around 25 secs to open the doc and around 20 secs to close and quit. The original Word doc takes around 3 secs in TextEdit and 4 secs in Word to open, all times with the apps closed and timed from selecting "Open" to the file being fully displayed. The good news is that once the doc is opened both apps (Briefe, Schrieben) are very fast indeed in handling the document and lengthy scrolling, searching and global formatting changes are nearly instantaneous. While Word is very fast of course, none of the Open Office variants can do the formatting test in less than around 4 minutes and Bean hangs or crashes. So Briefe and Schrieben are pretty nifty apps, though I think Schrieben has a nicer look to it. I hadn't realized you were responsible for Pilot and quite a few other very nice apps that are on MacUpdate - and your software bundle deal is quite remarkable value. (And to anyone else reading this, use the "More Information" tag to check out the website.)

GORDON BELL  Hear does not "require a restart every time"--

We are seeing a few isolated cases, where, after some amount of time (usually a few weeks or so), that Hear requires a restart. We are looking into the cause of this and once determined, can look for a bug fix for that. Its not occurring for most customers and therefore it makes it trickier to track down and reproduce.

I'd rather have a good wine in my cellar than a car in front of my house and there a lot of good an fair traded wines out there for less than a tankful…

APFELZ  @ PHALERON and all others :-)

I tried to hear to your feedback and I was often reported that it other apps from me have been easier to use :-0

So in this new version the biggest goal was to bring back the simpleness and adding requestet features…

I hope I could realize that :-)

APFELZ  just trashed all my BIAS apps…

They treat and punish customers like criminals and call this company policy:

"Dear Customer - of course we will take your money (lots of money)- but in our eyes you are potential criminal and you first have to proof the opposite…"

NO THANKS!

There are other great software companies and developers with a different policy and I'll be glad to give them my money!

APFELZ  good app - no question…

- but the developers punish you to buy a new license in case of a hardware failure (if you had to buy a new Mac)

so good luck guys - I will trash the app now and search for another one…

what a shame!

MAC OS X 4EVER  I hate companies that pull that crap on their licensed users.

If I buy a new Mac, why should I have to re-buy all of my registered software?

Try Drop-DMG.

I have owned it for quite a while.

It's a good program.

I was just looking at this one to see what it did differently.

I will avoid it after seeing what they did to you.

APFELZ  Are there other apps that can do a lot more?

Of course, there are many good - but sometimes you just need something simple - very simple…

That was the goal - as simple and a clean as possible app and a app thats able to run from a thumb drive - nothing more…

Maybe the analog diary from SYZZYGY does the cooking or goes to work for him - my analog diary is a simple book with blank sheets I can always have with me…

……………………………

Maybe I really should think about to build in an encryption :-)

APFELZ  “It is the ability to take a joke, not make one, that proves you have a sense of humor.”

(Max Eastman)

I am very shure that most "downloaders" know about the reason to build that "joke" and publishing it…

and those who did't probably know something about behaving or humor…

(Pluto is used by Apple for polls or patent applications for years now - and every time it is used - there are rumors about what it is could be - so last time all german mac-news sites and magazines wrote again dozends of articles I wrote thes small "garbage")

nothing more and nothing less

MUSUBANA  Well, searching does not work on my computer.

Keeping the welcome entry (which contains the words ”This is a portable application.”), a search for the word ”this” returns just the same as a search for the word ”alien”: nothing. The screen even stays the same. (No ”Nothing was found” message.)

The search field menu also has the custom of jumping back to ”✓Entry” after I have searched once for ”✓Content”.

P’aps it works fine on Leopard. I still use Tiger.

K0GG  I have done some more tests with Tagebuch. I find that if I do a search on Content, Tagebuch finds nothing and will not be able to make any other searches, either on Entry or Tag.

I have to quit Tagebuch and re-launch. If my searches are only on Entry or Tags then Tagebuch will find the appropriate Entries. But should I search at any time on Content, I will need to quit Tagbuch to make any more successful searches with Entry or Tag.

If my first search in Tagebuch is a Content search, Tagebuch will appear not to be able to do any searches. It seems best to avoid the Content search at the current time.

I have recorded a 3 minute video showing this problem and have uploaded it here:

APFELZ  Thanks!

My Goal is to creat very small apps and very reduced apps - so there are not many features :-)

If you need something to store enrypted - take a look at my i23

The first time you start the app - you are asked to allow an internet connection - so you can say no :-)

Curreny Calculator? I dont understand the need for that? I only pay in one? (Maybe I cant see the point of view?)

sometimes licences come as a small file, so it should be possible to attach a file to a database entry

I am working on a really good working solution...

If this is nothing for you and you would rather be treated with serials (...) - I am really sorry - but I want change my conviction :-)

Schreiben is not based on TextEdit - but it handles the files (RTF/DOC/etc.) the same way like TextEdit...

I will never build applications with serials...

Serials always (and only!) displease the honest people who payed for it - not the assholes who will never pay for an application...

so of course it is a compromise to disable some points - but you can test and use it as long as you want...
