PackRat 0.851

June 19th, 2006

Well, I released the new images feature a little too soon. Turns out I was displaying the full image rather than a thumbnail image from the Backpack site. This was really slowing things down for pages with lots of images. So here’s another release to fix this issue and a few others. Here’s the info:

Bug Fixes

  • Wasn’t using thumbnails to display images. This really slowed things down.
  • image descriptions now support markup
  • Pages wouldn’t display if the note titles were empty

Known Bugs

  • Tags browser causes crash when dragging sizer (awaiting fix in RBSplitView)
  • Help needs finishing
  • Backpack API Bug: Problems syncing pages with unicode characters, HTML/XML tags, or quotes in titles
  • Images are not loaded if not in cache
  • image thumbnails are not cached in images section

PackRat 0.85

June 18th, 2006

PackRat 0.85 has been released. Some good bug fixes in this one. If you’ve had problems uploading your changes to Backpack, there’s a good chance this release will fix that. Another hilight is that you can now see your files and attachments on a page. You have to be online to access, but you can see what’s there. Here’s the info:

New Features

- Now displays a page’s files. You must be online to access them
- Now displays a page’s images. You must be online to access them.

Bug Fixes

- List and note titles were not converting markup to HTML
- Tables now have borders in the page body
- Wasn’t escaping XML characters on page before uploading to Backpack. This was causing sync errors, often reported as a can’t login error.
- Now will handle uploading changes to a page that has been deleted in Backpack
- No longer hangs when you sync and the selected page no longer exists
- Backpack API Bug: Setting page body or note body to empty results in body being
set to — !ruby/hash:HashWithIndifferentAccess {}. Implemented workaround

Known Bugs

- Tags browser causes crash when draging sizer (awaiting fix in RBSplitView)
- Help needs finishing
- Backpack API Bug: Problems syncing pages with “bad” characters, HTML tags, or quotes in titles
- Images are not loaded if not in cache

A high school news web site has a review of software for students who want to get organized. They mention PackRat along with Yojimbo and VoodooPad. Both are excellent applications and its great to be mentioned with them. Check out the review here.


PackRat 0.84 Build 220

June 4th, 2006

I’ve just released PackRat 0.84. Mostly bug fixes, but now you can create notes and lists on a new page. You couldn’t do that before. You were stuck doing it in Backpack. Here’s the info:

New Features

_ New menu commands to add lists and notes. This also allows adding the first list and note to a page.
_ New Action toolbar button. Pulls up menu of common actions. So far there is new list and new note.

Bug Fixes

- UTF-8 characters such as British pound, etc. would cause Edit links to not appear
- The title field on the note and page sheet wasn’t always selected when the sheet is first displayed.
- If you entered two new notes the first note would take on the text of the second note

Known Bugs

- Tags browser causes crash when draging sizer (awaiting fix in RBSplitView)
- Help needs finishing
- Problems syncing pages with “bad” characters, HTML tags, or quotes in titles
- Images are not loaded if not in cache
- Backpack API Bug: Setting page body or note body to empty results in body being set to — !ruby/hash:HashWithIndifferentAccess {}. Workaround is to blank out the body using Backpack.
