StoryBox 0.2.61 – Guess What, I Broke Something Again

Yes, someone found one more thing that I broke. Originally, you weren’t allowed to delete ANY of the first 6 nodes created – Story, Characters, Items, Locations, Box of Notes, and Trash. Then, I decided to take up someones suggestion and allow you to create multiple story nodes. Turns out, when I added the new node types to allow that sort of thing, I had a subtle bug crop up – I was referencing the wrong enumeration when trying to figure out what I couldn’t delete, so now, you couldn’t delete the first 12 things! I’d never noticed before because the two enumerations had the same number of items.
Anyway, that’s fixed now. I also made quite a few other minor improvements, especially in the speed of applying styles like bold and underline.

You know the drill…

Now, I’m going to go play WoW for a bit and then watch some poorly reviewed movies with my wife.

StoryBox 0.2.60

So, apparently, no one tried to use the search feature since 0.1.59 came out. Apparently, I somehow managed to totally disable it. Couldn’t search on anything.

BUT!!!

That’s fixed, along with some other minor things….

Like Importing from RTF Documents, and the ability to add multiple Story nodes and double clicking an item in the Outline mode to open a document. Lots of other little things cleaned up, too.

Check it out!

I promise, this is it for a few days unless some other stupid thing I broke pops up.

StoryBox 0.1.58

Yes, there’s another one. This one has updated UI components, so you should uninstall any previous version before installing this one. It’s not critical, but if you don’t, you may see some odd UI behavior. There may still be some odd behavior – I think I’ve caught all the issues, but I probably haven’t.

Get it here!

StoryBox 0.1.57 and the Future

Uploaded a new build with some new features, like auto numbered scenes and chapters, and a menu item that will open the support forum in the internal browser. A couple bug fixes finishes it off.

Download it here

Version 1.0 is coming, really. If you are already using StoryBox, whenever 1.0 eventually arrives, there won’t be a big host of new features over what you’re already seeing. I have one or two more semi-large items to add, and a lot of tweaking to do, but it’ll be basically the same as what you’re looking at now. I’m really feeling pretty good about it now. Tell your friends, if you haven’t already. Get them in on the Early Adopter version before the price goes up.

StoryBox 0.1.56

Look what happens when I get big huge bugs that annoy me for months fixed… I release a new update in less than a week with quite a few fixes (for the time I have available to me). Get the latest version and see the release notes. Fixes/improvements to the search features and a few other minor annoyances. Enjoy!
