Web Design History - October 8, 1997
************************************
This is not complete but it will give you some hints.
READ THE GUIDE if you want access to the many helpful
things Web Design can do for you. boo hoo
v17.g
More bug fixes.
v1.7e
Fixed the cirle bug in imagemap.
Messes with safty features.
v1.7d
Added support for client side image maps. (READ THE GUIDE)
v1.7c
Insert should now have a memory like Load already has.
Cut and Paste may be a little faster.
v1.7b
Fixed the crash that happened if you tried to type in the
Document selection box.
v1.7-v1.7a
This version comes in two flavors one with the cando.library
and one without. This way if you already have the library
you can download the smaller file.
Many bug fixes.
v1.6z
I hope.
v1.6yy
Why you...!!
v1.6y
What the...?
v1.6x
More bug fixes and more work on the multidoc function.
It actually was working until I compiled the program?
But it wasn't totally set up anyway but you can look at
the screen.
v1.6w
Fixed the big crash bug of 1.6u and 1.6v. What a dope!
v1.6v
Battle of the bugs continues but it seems as if we don't
need to worry about the bad bugs byte for now. It seems.
A new 'Project' menu function lets you select to return
to the home directory that was selected in 'Go Configure'.
I needed this while testing so I left it in just in case
someone else might be able to use it.
There are some file formats Web Design has a problem with
and I send them to 'Ed' to reformat them. If you jump to
'Ed' just 'Save' the file in 'Ed' and 'Quit' 'Ed'. You
can do this in 'Ed's' pulldown menu or just do this key
combination:
1. Press Esc
2. Press x
3. Press RETURN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
v1.6t
Trying to recover from the "bug hell" the recent versions
have created!
v1.6s
Fixed the bug in Load htm
v1.6r
Made Web Design a bit smarter.
v1.6M
Bug fixes.
Added the ability to use background images in tables.
Made the path configure look in the current directory
instead of always going to Ram.
v1.6L
This fixes the cursor color problem caused by
the great palette experiment.
v1.6k
This concludes the palette experiment
v1.6j
Minor extention of fantasy fix.
v1.6i
This version hopfully will fix a problem a few people
have had with 1.6+ versions that caused an error at
the "Go Configure" screen or when selecting the screen
resolution from the "Go Configure" screen.
Oh please please please let it be fixed as I can not
get the error myself which makes it difficult to fix.
This may even fix a problem a couple of people have had
in the past that was similar.
v1.6e
Cleaned up a few things.
If you are using Voyager or AWeb II for preview
you may want to use the Load Preview Browser button
on the Go Config screen to have them up and running
and display your first preview.
v1.6d
With HappyDT installed you can have images sizes
auto added to your docs.
(Aminet util/cdity HappyDT.lha)
Watch for the new version that is shareware with
added features.
WD now asks if you want to save changes after you
have used preview.
v1.6c
Fixed the Workbench button bug.
v1.6b
Added width attribute for table header and data.
Added hex read and edit to color selector.
General house cleaning and bug fixes.
v1.6
This version uses courier/11 and courier/13 font
so you need to have this in your fonts directory.
Unless you deleted this font it is already there
and if you have just copy from your original
disks.
I fixed some more stuff.
Bug fix v1.5e
Fixed miss marked buttons for screen sizes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bug fix: v1.5d
Fixed a possible problem with screen sizes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bug fix: v1.5c
Fixed several bugs in the Links.(Full and Local URL)
Added the ability to include or insert a Target
into the Full and Local URL links. This will be
helpful when working with frames. This command already
existed in the frames menu but had a bug.(see guide)
Added a new Screen pull down menu for quick access
to the Go Configure and Workbench screens.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bug fix: v1.5b
Fixed the new BGSound/EMBED bug I created in v1.5.
Also added a requester for the Template button so
unwanted templates aren't created when you miss the
Preview button.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New in v1.5
Replaces background images without the need to delete
the previous image.
Replace images without the need to delete the previous
image manually.(see the guide for instuctions)
When working with images/backgrounds it is now possible
load an image from an outside directory and auto copy
the gfx to the current directory.
Add background colors to a complete table as well as
individual colors for each header <TH> or data <TD>.
(see guide for instructions)
Insert mailto and http tags around existing text in a
document. Choose whether to use the address as the
hypertext or enter text.(see guide for instuctions)
Fixed the text entry for colors so it works correctly.
Fixed Insert, Inserthtml, Inserthtm so they don't cause
Web Design to forget what file you are working with.
Fixed path so it uses the information you enter on the
GoConfig screen. (dah)
Did some other stuff I can't remember right now.
Please please please read the Key Commands info as well
as all the other docs if you want to get the most out of
Web Design. If you don't read the instruction some features
will not work.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Previously
v1.4 allows the user to preview document changes
by clicking the new preview button. The Go Configure
screen allows the user to select the path for the
browser or browsers that are used for previewing.
The path to where docs and images etc is also set
on this screen. Settings are saved if they are used.
I have found Ibrowse 1.1 works best at this time for
preview but AWeb and Voyager can also be used.
I have found that AWeb works best if loaded at the
Go Configure screen or it doesn't show your document
the first time preview is used. After going back to
Web Design and doing preview a second time AWeb loads
the changes each time. I have tried many ways around
this problem but haven't found the answer yet.
Both Ibrowse and AWeb auto reload so the new changes
are shown but I couldn't get Voyager to reload so you
will need to click the Reload button in Voyager to see
the new changes.
F6 does the same thing the preview button does and
F7 takes you back to the Web Design screen. Sometimes
this doesn't work the first time the browser is loaded.
I have Ibrowse and AWeb screens shrunk down so I can
access the screens I have them on making it is easy to
click between screens while Voyager works for me without
doing this. If all else fails RIGHT and LEFT AMIGA keys
plus m will get you back to Web Design.
You are free to try new ideas without overwriting the
current version of your document because the preview
is a separate file and does not change the current version
of your document until you actually Save the changes.
This is the reason for the doc path config.
I recommend using SaveAs because sometimes preview causes
Web Design to forget what file you are working with but
SaveAs keeps track of things.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is now easier to make changes to font color and
size. It is no longer necesary to delete previous
settings. This also is true with BODY settings for
text colors and background color.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Watch for updates and helpful hints on my home page.
http://www.net-link.net/~lmcgahey/
I have docs in HTML format online as well as in
AmigaGuide format for downloading.
I have also made it possible now to press the HELP
key for online help while using Web Design.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I would like to have your ideas and bug reports
whether you have registered or not.
If you use the program please leave the GENERATOR
info in your docs like all those MS people do.
Also if you use Web Design you might consider placing
one of my "Created with Web Design" icons on your page
and link to my site with the icon.
