Updates

[Brian]

Hi Ryan,

The felix-users Google groups forum has been relatively quiet lately.
I was just wondering what new features/updates may be in the works for
Felix.

Thanks.

Sorry for the recent slowdown in updates.

I'm working on the version 1.6.7 release of Felix now. The main
improvements/changes will be:

* Option to only allow one translation per source segment
* Bringing PowerPoint interface in line with Word/Excel (review mode)
* Adding some improvements to the Excel interface
* Move Felix preferences from registry to XML format
* Migrate codebase to Visual Studio 2010 (making code faster and more
robust)

Regards,
Ryan

Fantastic news. Thanks Ryan.

Any progress on automatically (and temporarily) disabling Glossary
look ups during an Auto Translate?
Also, I think it was reported before, but if I edit from the Felix
window, I no longer get 100% matches for that segment. Not sure, but I
think carriage returns or spaces (can't tell the difference visually)
are inadvertently placed in the segment, which results in 90 something
percent matches instead of 100%.

As always, your support is greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the late response.

Yes, I do have a plan for this. It is going to require a change to the Felix
API, however, and so I didn't want to add that change at the same time as I
migrate the codebase to the latest version of Microsoft's compiler. I plan
to add it in version 1.6.8, however.

This appears to be an issue when you edit matches in the "Edit" pane rather
than the "Source" pane. It appears that spurious paragraph breaks are being
added to the text. I have a bug ticket for this, but in the meantime it will
probably be best to edit entries in the "Source" pane.

Ryan
