AZZ Cardfile Blog

Thanks to all beta testers for their generous contribution, there are about 60 small and more significant bugs to fix. Antanas is at about 30 currently.

Some insight on what has been done.

(I will publish only the first name of betatester for privacy reasons)

From Jason: I have two more issues to report with the AZZ cardfile Beta 4.0.

If I create a new card, add information to it and BEFORE saving the cardfile, I try and print the selected card, then it gives an “List index out of bounds (2)” error.

If AZZ is already running and I do not notice and try to open it again by clicking on a shortcut to an AZZ cardfile, then sometimes it will try to “import” the file. I usually manage to shut it down before it completes whatever it is doing. The old version used to give a warning that AZZ was already running, and did I want to continue Yes/No?

Both fixed.

From Sanjay:

1. Just as you have a scale in the card portion, similar scale panning the card list, card and task panel would be of great help in keeping the width of respective items at a desired level.

Sorry, that would violate Windows standards.

2. Search through the task panel fails if multiple words are given

Use “word1 word2″ not word1 word2 when searching for a phrase. If searching for card that contains both words, but not necessarily in a phrase, use +word1 +word2.

3. Cutting and pasting within cards sometimes creates problems. I have to use Word to autoformat before pasting on to an AZZ card.

Fixed

From Bill:

Since using MS Vista OS the right click option in AZZ Cardfile program text
area doesn’t work.

Just downloaded 3.3 and still no right click choices appear in text area.

If I use the small copy & paste icons in program toolbar it works fine.

Copying using copy icon in program toolbar, then pasting from right click
menu in other programs works fine.

Prior OSs in windows all worked as expected with right click.

I hope this description of problem is clear enough.

Any suggestions?

Common in many applications on Windows Vista. Working on this.

From Robert:

… once a file is added to the “Recent Files” box, I’ve not been able to
remove it.  Is possible to do this?…

Easy. Two methods:
1. “options | Open and save | Recently used..” reduce to 0, close, start, set the necessary number. All the MRUs cleared.
2. more intelligent: edit file: “C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\azzCardfile\azzCardfile Settings.ini”. [MRU] section. Where “USER” - Windows user name.
In case there will be many such requests, we might include a “clear browsing history” command somewhere.

From Arthur:

When I go to tool/options/List/Fonts/Bold - Apply, it does keep it, when I
open the program again the List is back to normal font and not Bold, why?
What can I do to correct this?

Bug fixed

From Steve:

Hi!

Just wanted to say I love your new beta Cardfile! My tablet PC handwriting works with it for the first time! It crashes a bit, but I keep multiple copies saved. When will the finished release be downloadable?

Around Christmas, hopefully

Don’t forget the “minimize on close” feature, and start with Windows, ok?

Great Product!!!
