Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual

We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.

Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

Hello,

A few comments regarding the floating windows in 2.0.0-beta19
I REALLY like the concept of floating windows (useful!) but the process should include better controls.

If I were developing this interface, this is what I would attempt to do:

1. There would be a default grid layout for positioning all windows and this layout could be customized: pattern and window content placement.
2. The frame of the layout grid would be displayed when hovering above the corners of any window's emplacement.
3. There would be an anchor point in the top left corner of each window's emplacement.
4. A window would be detached by dragging it away from this anchor point.
5. The window would be re-attached by dragging it and dropping it back onto that same anchor point.
6. A small button on each window would allow the window to be automatically re-attached to its original location in the grid.
7. Another small button on the main UI, this time, would automatically re-attache ALL floating windows back to their original position inside the grid layout.
8. Every detachable window would have minimize/maximize buttons.

Cheers
Gil
