Release notes

A log of software updates. What's been added, fixed, improved and changed.

We have a roadmap but it is worth noting that the app evolves directly off feedback from enthusiastic users.

• New Example prices are loaded optionally from settings
• Improved Redesigned the description field on Rows
  – allow multiple lines
  – make text italic (cmd+i) and bold (cmd+b)
  – can paste from clipboard (including richtext and images)
  – NB: paste, bold & italic only working in Chrome (so far)
• Fixed Project margin calculates correctly
• Fixed Time cost in Price Summary calculates correctly
• Fixed Deleting the final child of a parent (in some circumstances) no longer breaks that parent row
• Removed ‘Reference’ rows can now longer be added
  – they were rarely use, if ever it seems, and they add considerable complexity
  – let us know if this is an issue

NB: Started work on saving data into user accounts on the cloud.

• New The name ‘Trifle’. A small but important change.
• Fixed Longer Price names no longer overflow the modal when importing rows
