Meta Modeware Track Changes: February 3, 2011

The current stable version of Meta Modeware is 1.0.4

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 1.0.5 beta 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATING SYSTEMS:
* Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7

NEW FEATURES:
* International keyboard support. Be sure to copy keyboard.xml to the My Documents/Modeware directory. Currently supported keyboards: Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Austria, and Great Britain.
* Optional default CPI and Pointer Speed setting. Don't forget that it will be necessary to Update All Modes when the default is changed. * Default mode option. Autoswitching default to Mode 1 when in an application to which no mode is assigned. Assigning Basic Mouse mode to Mode 1 is recommended.
* L1 and R1 macro record buttons in Edit Function.
* HID scancode support in macros. Usage Page 7 is supported.

BUG FIXES:
* Left and Right are no longer reversed in Analog Sim.
* Joystick oversensitivity in Analog Sim fixed.
* Pointer Speed slider now available in Add/Edit Mode in Advanced.
* Improved keyboard parser for macros.

KNOWN ISSUES:
* 2.0.2 firmware and below 8-second time limit on joystick keypresses.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 1.0.4
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATING SYSTEMS:
* Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7
* Linux Fedora 13 (beta), Ubuntu 10.10 (beta)

NEW FEATURES:
* Analog Sim function for "Joystick directions as 4 independent buttons" joystick mode. Keystroke and mouse scroll wheel events are simulated in the software and their frequency depends on how much the joystick is moved. As with Autoswitching, this function requires Modeware running to operate.
* New taskbar messages inform the user where imported and exported modes are located.
* Find Mode feature helps user quickly locate application modes. Assigned to Ctrl+F hotkey.

BUG FIXES:
* Updating a single mode now works when auto-update on startup is turned off.
* File dialogs open in My Documents/Modeware instead of the program directory as before. This complies with Windows Vista and Windows 7 protocols.
* Active Mode Sleep bug fixed. When the computer returns from a stand-by state, the active mode will stay active rather than switching to Mode 1 as before.
* Macro Delay Chain feature for 2500 ms limit on macro delay events. One can now string 2500 ms events together to make longer delays.

KNOWN ISSUES:
* LINUX ONLY. Active Mode Sleep bug. If the computer goes into stand-by for less than ten seconds before being awakened again, the active mode will switch to Mode 1 (default Firefox) even though Modeware still reports the active mode as being active.
* LINUX ONLY. Changing the Mouse Pointer Speed does not work in Linux. For mode-specific changes, change the CPI settings instead.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 1.0.3
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATING SYSTEMS:
* Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7
* Linux Fedora 13 (beta)

NEW FEATURES:
* Mode auto-sync at startup turned now off by default which removes the 30-second period in which the mouse pointer movement is affected. Update All Modes can be manually enacted to ensure that Modeware and the mouse are in sync if auto-sync is turned off.

BUG FIXES:
* 64-bit applications can now be auto-switched.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 1.0.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATING SYSTEMS:
* Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7

BUG FIXES:
* Active mode no longer changes to the next higher mode ID when the user switches from advanced view to basic view.
* Right Alt (Alt Gr) no longer reports as Left Alt when recorded.
