Good news: not only did I just upload the linux release for this
version, also I somehow managed to statically link wxwidgets 2.9, so
it doesn't rely on having that installed anymore (good thing too,
since 2.9 is not available through the package manager).
This should make treesheets on linux easier to install. Please, linux
user, give me some feedback on how this all works for you. If I hear
no major issues, I am ready to declare the linux version "stable", as
it has been working identically to the windows version for a while
now.
I'm basically a Windows user pushed to Linux by Vista :-) and my
penguin experience is still rather limited. The Linux version seems to
work fine in OpenSuse 11, but this is a very busy period for me so it
will be a while before I am able to test it thoroughly. I hope other
Linux users will join in and try out TreeSheets because it's an
excellent product.
Well, I use the new version of TreeSheets on Ubuntu 9.10 and Vista
Home Premium, and it works really, really well. It positively flies on
Ubuntu, in fact!
Keep up the great work, Wouter
(and if you happened to feel like including outlines at any point, you
would earn my undying gratitude, but I know you hate my outline
obsession already, so I'll go away...)
Your wish for some form of folding has not gone ignored.
I have been experimenting with ideas for it, because as I said I'd like to avoid a simple "fold/unfold" operation, as it clashes with "zoom/unzoom".
My idea sofar, is to allow you to set a global scale factor for all grids that have been resized to what is currently the minimum size. It would actually render those to a bitmap, and then scale them down, say, 4x. So you'd get really small graphical representations of grids you have shrunken down, which is still more informative than a fold icon, and they would work like current tiny grids do: you can make them readable by simply zooming into them.
