Japanese localizations, at long last.
Among other neat things like some crashes that got fixed, bug fixes, regression fixes, and a few forward-looking fixes for the future.
The beta download page and current release notes can be found here.
Hi OmniWeb, we let you sit in the corner for a little too long, sorry about that. The fine folks at WebKit.org have been doing some amazing work and we thought you might like to play with it. Come out of the corner, stretch your legs and lets see how things go!
After your time away, I hope you'll get along better with JavaScript and plug-ins like Speed Download. Not to mention all those random sites that you just didn't see eye to eye with. We promise to help you along the way but in the meantime why don't you head on over to the Sneaky Peek page we made up for you.
OmniPlan 1.1.1 is now available! We've added full Tier-1 localization, fixed some OmniPlan file opening issues, and fixed a of couple import/export issues. You can view a complete list of changes in the OmniPlan 1.1.1 release notes here.
This is a free update for folks who already own an OmniPlan 1 license, so we encourage all OmniPlan users to upgrade to the latest version.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions or comments about OmniPlan. You can contact us directly thru our support page or by using the Send Feedback commend in OmniPlan's Help Menu.
For approximately 12 hours, starting last night at 10pm Pacific Daylight Time, the trouble ticket system we use was malfunctioning - mail to our support addresses was bounced back to the folks that sent it without being added to our support queues. We can see that folks sent us mail, but the actual contents of that mail was lost.
Our sysadmin is working on untangling exactly what happened. To anyone that sent us support mail: please accept our apologies for the inconvenience this caused. We'd also like to ask you to re-send the messages that bounced back to you. We'll get your mail processed and get responses back to you as soon as possible.
OmniPlan 1.1.1 rc 1 is now available, including some important bug fixes.
Please keep in mind that this release is still under development. Your feedback will help us improve the software, and we apologize if it crashes, corrupts your files, or otherwise misbehaves. A more stable release that does not include localizations is also available.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions or comments. You can contact us directly via our support page or by using the Send Feedback feature in your copy of OmniPlan.
Take a break from checking your email for OmniFocus beta invites (we are adding people as fast as we can, I swear) and behold: new screencasts are now available for OmniGraffle.
Not only that, but there's a new OmniPlan screencast that you can watch from the ScreenCastsOnline website.
Enjoy!
Hi.
I've been seeing you around with OmniFocus (well, at least some of you) lately. Look, I'm really sorry about all that crashing I did, I swear I won't do it again. Can you, you know, maybe hang out with me for a little bit instead of Focus? Come on, it'll be like old times! Except, you know, the crashing part.
Oh, did I mention that I got my localizations done? (well, Japanese is still partly done and is underway as we speak)
Yeah anyways, another handy OmniGraffle beta release, fixed a very popular crash when saving, most of the localizations are incorporated.
Informative release notes in their usual location.
Beta download page awaits.
Ethan Schoonover has relaunched his Kinkless website, and has posted a second screencast about OmniFocus:
OmniGroup has let Schrödinger's cat out of the bag and put doubts to rest as to whether it exists or not… it definitely exists. With the beta rolling out slowly but surely, I thought it was a good time to release another video showing you some other neat stuff you can do with OmniFocus.Click below to watch a ten minute video that talks a bit about sub-projects, nesting sequential sub-projects inside parallel parent projects and even briefly demo's how to change styles.
If you're enjoying Ethan's screencasts, be sure to drop him a comment on his site and let him know! (I know that people here at Omni have been learning new things from watching them. Thanks again, Ethan!)
For those who are wondering whether or not they've already been sent an invitation and it's just slow in arriving: the first batch of 100 invitations went out about eleven hours ago, which means that anyone who confirmed their subscription to the OmniFocus beta mailing list before 2am (Pacific) on October 31 should have received it by now. 100 down, 4,100 to go. Or, um, that's what it was eleven hours ago—it appears we now have 4,874 subscribers, so make that 4,774 to go. Or, uh, 4,893? Or…
Hmm, maybe we'd better send out another batch soon. (Another 100 will bring us up to anyone who confirmed their subscription before 3pm on November 1. Whew, it's nice to be able to report something about this mailing list that doesn't change every five seconds.)
Look, I realize that this post isn't concerning OmniFocus (I am seriously considering the idea of referring to OmniFocus as “Marcia”, but I cannot bring myself to refer to Graffle as “Jan”), but I don't want anyone to panic.
Really, I don't want any panicking.
Especially of the Kernel Panic variety.
A very small number of users have been reporting kernel panics on their Intel-based Macs in Mac OS X 10.4.9 when saving files with the OmniGraffle 4.2 beta releases. We are investigating the issue and of course would very much like to fix it if it's a problem in OmniGraffle. Therefore, it's recommended that if stability is absolutely crucial, you should run OmniGraffle 4.1.2, available at our Download Page . However, if you are a brave soul who would like to hazard a kernel panic, we'd also very much like to get your feedback, so that we can look at the data as well as pass it along to Apple.
That said, among the various bug fixes and crashes addressed in this release, OmniGraffle 4.2b4 also sports a significant change to how it handles its autosave backups—Now that it requires Mac OS X 10.4, we're taking advantage of storing that information in a more proper location, with the added benefit of newly-created documents that have yet to be saved gaining a backup as well.
Please to read the release notes.
As ever, the scary beta download page awaits.
OmniPlan 1.1.1 beta 1 is now available, localized for Japanese, French, Italian, Dutch, German, Spanish and Simplified Chinese. If you use OmniPlan in one of these languages, please let us know of any problems you see so that we can get the issue corrected as soon as possible.
Please keep in mind that this release is still under development. Your feedback will help us improve the software, and we apologize if it crashes, corrupts your files, or otherwise misbehaves. A more stable release that does not include localizations is also available.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions or comments. You can contact us directly via our support page or by using the Send Feedback feature in your copy of OmniPlan.
