• Make a 4 point turn - TextEase, CloudFS, Prophet, WiFi HAT all updated

    From Elesar Sales@21:1/5 to All on Mon Mar 1 08:11:35 2021
    Elesar has made four 'point' releases available now, with some expert manoeuvring you can grab all 4 without getting any points on your licence.

    TextEase
    --------
    Version 5.98 extends Logo, adds shortcuts to clipart on drives other than ADFS/CDFS, and integrates with SpecialFX for antialiased thin lines. There's also fixes for a crash with a 1 slide slideshow and a Draw export problem.

    The supplied manual has swollen to 153 pages and now covers all 6
    applications in the studio.

    To download this update simply re-run the provided installer and copy the ZIP to your preferred location. If you don't have TextEase prices start at £60 (£50+VAT) for the Home edition
    http://shop.elesar.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=87

    CloudFS
    -------
    Version 0.33 adds a new server type to connect to EU datacentres (this was always possible, but required setting a system variable), fixes a problem
    where connections could be dropped if inactive for extended periods, and improves throughput by up to 300% depending on your network connection.

    To download this update simply re-run the provided installer and copy the ZIP to your preferred location. If you don't have CloudFS it costs £28.80
    (£24+VAT) and connects to pCloud with starter plans including up to 10GB free storage

    Prophet
    -------
    Version 4.08 now auto fills the reference number in the ledger by searching that customer's history, highlights on the invoice window when VAT is not shown, and has smarter auto complete of company names (all from user suggestions). An invoice reminder crash is also fixed. In the 'Making Tax Digital' edition the dialogue with HMRC now follows the latest v3.0 specification.

    To download this update simply re-run the provided installer and copy the TAR to your preferred location. If you don't have Prophet prices start at £94.80 (£79+VAT)

    WiFi HAT
    --------
    Version 1.06 of the supporting driver 'EtherWILC' updates the firware that
    runs on the network coprocessor to the latest release, and fixes problems printing test results if the hardware didn't start up, plus a workaround for the Pi firmware reporting the wrong clock speed.

    To download this update go to the Resources section of the WiFi HAT product page, where both the variant with and without built in real time clock are available
    http://shop.elesar.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=83

    We're always interested to hear ideas for new features to Elesar's product family, so if you've just upgraded one of these four - have a think what
    you'd like to see next.
