Task Coach 1.4.3

This is a bugfix release.
Bugs fixed:
•When SyncML was on, the effort viewer would show effort for deleted tasks.
•When dragging panes and dropping them onto each other to create an automatic notebook, make sure dropped viewers are properly contained in the notebook.
•When renaming a viewer, apply the new name to the active viewer.
Feature added:
•Allow automatic creation of a notebook of viewers on top of the initial task viewer. This makes the user interface functionally equivalent to the previously removed "tabbed" mode.

This release adds time to start, due and completion dates of tasks and adds support for mass editing of items. It also adds support for the upcoming version 3.0 for the iPhone/iPod/iPad.
Bugs fixed:
•Icons in edit dialogs would be lined up vertically on some versions of Windows XP. Fixed by using a notebook widget instead of the listbook widget.
•The new edit dialogs better support tabbing through the dialogs.
•On Mac OS X, the tabs in the editor and preferences dialogs were too small.
•Searching descriptions wasn't working in the effort viewer.
Features added:
•The start, due and completion dates of tasks now also include a time. When reading old task files, Task Coach adds a default time to tasks: start dates get a time of "00:00", due dates and completion dates get a time of "23:59".
•Mass editing of items. When editing multiple items (tasks, notes, etc.), the edit dialog allows for selectively changing attributes of all edited items.
•Less intrusive notifications (reminders).
•The calendar orientation can be changed.
•Add an option to the calendar viewer to show all tasks but those which have no start nor due date
•The headers in the calendar view are now always visible.
•The calendar view can show an arbitrary number of periods
Implementation changed:
•The task file format was changed to support start, due and completion date and time. The task file format version number is now 30.

Bugs fixed:
•On Mac OS X, properly read task files when the font description cannot be parsed. This may happen when reading a task file that was last saved on a different platform. Unfortunately, font specifications are platform specific.
•Prevent exception when reading old task files.
•Saving of templates didn't work, resulting in invalid template files that would in turn prevent Task Coach from starting properly.
•On Windows, the tabs of the dialogs would flicker when moving the mouse over the tabs.
•Use dialogs for reminders.

Release 1.1.4 - September 30, 2010
This is a bugfix release.
Bugs fixed:
•Task Coach would not properly use the system's locale to select the language if the language was set to 'Let the system determine the language', resulting in the wrong language being used. (3064566)
•Don't switch top/bottom and left/right margins in the print preview.
•Refresh task viewer filters every minute so that when the task viewer is hiding inactive tasks, inactive tasks that become active also become visible. (3072013)
•Displaying revenue in effort viewers was slow. The effort viewer has a revenue column that shows the revenue earned per effort record. Until now, this would be the task fee per hour times the duration of the effort record plus the part of the fixed fee of the task earned with this effort record. So if a task had a fixed fee of 1000,- and you had spent 10 hours on the task, an effort record of one hour would have a revenue of 100,-. However, calculating all this would get slow for larger amounts of effort records, so the effort revenue now only shows the variable part, i.e. fee per hour times effort duration. (3056540)
•In the situation where Task Coach was started minimized in the system tray and with the setting "Hide window when minimizing" turned on, the main window would not be hidden when minimizing it. (3077271)
Features added:
•Allow hiding composite tasks in calendar view. (http://uservoice.com/a/aul3S)
•In the tree/list task viewer, allow additional selection with Cmd-click on Mac OS X.

Release 1.2.0 - October 9, 2010
This release adds task dependencies.
Bugs fixed:
• An exception would be thrown if search strings contained a percentage symbol.
• When printing, correctly align columns.
• Show sort indicator in attachment viewers.
• Task Coach would always change budget, hourly fee, and fixed fee to zero when mass editing tasks.
• Better contrast in the calendar view
• Tasks started at 00:00 would be displayed twice in the monthly vertical calendar view
Feature added:
• Tasks can have one or more prerequisite tasks. As long as a task has one or more prerequisite tasks that are not completed, the dependent task is inactive. The task tree viewer has two extra columns, one for showing prerequisite tasks and one for showing dependent tasks. Prerequisite tasks can be selected in the Prerequisites tab of the task edit dialog. Dependent tasks cannot be selected explicitly but are simply derived from the prerequisite tasks. For example, if task B can be started only after task A has been completed, task A is called a prerequisite for task B and task B is called a dependency of task A.
Features changed:
• To simplify the application and reduce the number of columns all "total" and "overall" columns have been removed. For composite items that have children, the tree viewers show the "total" or "overall" value when the item is collapsed and the individual value when the item is not collapsed. An example may help: suppose task A has a budget of 20 hours and subtask A1 has a budget of 10 hours. In the task viewer in tree mode, the budget column shows 20 hours for task A when it is expanded and 30 hours when it is collapsed. For task A1 the budget shown is always 10 hour. In list mode, the task viewer shows the individual values, so a budget of 20 hours for task A and 10 hours for task A1.
• The order of tabs in tabbed dialogs can be changed. Task Coach now remembers the order of the tabs in the item edit dialogs and the preferences dialog.
• When printing, show the sorted column by underlining the column header.
• Reorganized some menu items differently and added mnemonics to all menu items.
Implementation changed:
• The task file format was changed to support task dependencies. The task file format version number is now 31.
