The main changes are in GA032a)
Ive changed the Search tools on the interface to be the same as GA004 etcb)
Theres a new Gardens tabc)
When you look at plants listed under the Gardens tab, theres a prefix *** if a plant is already included in the currently selected Review.
Blank if not included
d)
Better management of the plant list when you edit a plant and return to the initial screen. After editing in GA100S36 and returning to initial screen, you'll see the same list of plants, with
- any changes made to the plant you edited (including shuffling the plant up or down the list if necessary)
- Deleted plant will be removed from list
e)
Change to the search feature. Best explained by example. Try this (in the initial screen GA032S01). In Genus search field, start typing the characters of a Genus in your database.
After 2 characters, a predictive list of matching Genera appears, and you can click on a Genus in the predictive list
Did you know you could use the spacebar?
For this exercise, keep typing until the Genus you want is TOP of the list
Once the Genus is TOP of the list, click the spacebar.
The program acts as if you'd clicked the Genus in the Genera options list, and displays all plants in the Genus.
That is fine for Genus and Species, as they only have one word, so that remains unchanged.
However, it had limited value in the case of Cultivars with more than one word in the cultivar name.
e.g. 'Pink Pagoda'
In the Master Database, there's a miriad of plants in the list after you've typed
Pink - so many its a slow search through the list
The Change:Ive made it so that clicking the spacebar does NOT automatically select the item at the top of the list (in the cultivar search only).
Instead, you can continue typing, into the second word.
After you've reached
Pink Pa the list is much smaller, and its easy to see the plant you are looking for.
f)
Changes to screen GA032S08- A filter added - allows users to filter on Plants which do NOT have a Web Image (great for anyone with a very large list of plants - compensates for headaches caused from downloading program updates
- A new Auto-click Last check box (top right region of screen)
When checked:- After you select a photo for a plant, the program clicks the Last button, setting the Photographer pop-up for you
Use with care if more than one photographers images are used in your project - A text field shows the number of pics in the project (Counts Plant photos and Garden photos)
Changes in GA004a)
A Niggly fix in GA100S36 When you are editing a plant, then click Cult/Properties then click Define Cult/Properties you get to the Global editing screen (in this instance GA100S30CG)
The program shows all plants in the Genus (thats why its called GLOBAL editing)
Wouldn't it be nice if the program were to locate and highlight the plant you were editing? (particularly if there are 1000's of plants in the Genus)
Thats what it should have been doing. Its now fixed to do that.
b) Item (e) in GA032 has also been applied to GA004.
Changes in GA030Bug fixI found a nasty problem when linking a second photo to a plant
Ive fixed that same bug before in other IG Pro programs where you link plants to photos (so they were OK). Also OK in FG.
All should be OK now.
GA037 Picking up common screen change in GA100S36
