Happy New Year
10:14 - By BlueGriffon - Progress - 2 comments
The BlueGriffon Team wishes you a very happy new year 2009!
Speaking of wishes, BlueGriffon will not only be able to apply themes to a page, but also get themes from online repositories. We're working on a themes' manifest all web sites distributing themes could serve. Giving the URL of that file to BlueGriffon would be the only thing needed to use a theme coming from that web site inside BlueGriffon. Stay tuned.

Project manager #2
17:58 - By BlueGriffon - Progress - one comment
Nvu's Site Manager was clearly not enough. BlueGriffon's Project Manager starts really being cool and it will be much more powerful than its ancestor. Link checking, sync with remote site and so on. Stay tuned.

bluegriffon-20081210-win32.zip
- built on XP Pro, contains xulrunner 1.9.1b1pre
- don't miss File > New Wizard ; it's not fully functional yet, but the CSS Grid Layout builder is already working.
- if you already installed a previous version of BlueGriffon, it's
better to clobber the application data, so please delete directory
c:\Documents and Settings\<login>\Application Data\Disruptive Innovations SARL\BlueGriffon - just unzip in a newly created dir to install (remove that dir to uninstall)

CSS-based Layouts #2

Usually, the second revamping of a dialog starts looking good.... So here's the first one and I find it much much better than the original proposal:

CSS-based Layouts
17:49 - By BlueGriffon - Progress - 3 comments
I have some great news : I got formal authorization from Yahoo! to add YUI-based CSS Layouts to BlueGriffon. Let me thank Yahoo! (and in particular Nate Koechley and Christian Heilmann) and then Jake Myers, the guy behind the famous http://layouts.ironmyers.com. The first visible result is the new "New page wizard" that is not checked in yet. See below a very early screenshot of that wizard. Warning, the UI is not at all finalized.

We just built BlueGriffon for the first time on a Mac, only to discover we have a lot to do on the theme's side for that platform. But thanks to Laurent, we now have a cool build process on all platforms that will allow us to push fresh meat to this web site more often than before.

A screenshot-based demo of table layouts. Create a basic table, open the layout dialog, find or create the one you want, click OK, done...

Table layout dialog #2
16:26 - By BlueGriffon - Progress - 4 comments
A lot of progress on the table layout side. It's near completion. It's now possible to create new table layouts and modify existing ones. Only remain on the radar horizontal and vertical alignment controls.

I've just added a context menu to the structure bar. The first menu item there is to manage the element's language.

Already working fine, only remain a few minor details to iron.

Zoom
20:12 - By BlueGriffon - Progress - one comment
Currently adding a UI element to control the zoom factor. This is an important accessibility tool that is so simple to add to a Gecko>1.8-based app that BlueGriffon should not exist without. Will be ready in a few hours from now I guess, if my dying Vaio laptop does not collapse before...

It's only a beginning but it already works beautifully...

Speaking of tables
16:04 - By BlueGriffon - Thinking at loud
One of the nice features of text editors is table formatting. Think
MS Word and its Table Autoformat dialog. It's very easy to implement
that in BlueGriffon... Hehe

Fresh meat anyone ?
17:41 - By BlueGriffon - Fresh Meat - one comment

- it's a so early version that no doubt you will be disappointed
- built on XP Pro, contains xulrunner 1.9.1b1pre
- just unzip in a newly created dir to install, remove that dir to uninstall
- to clobber the application data, delete directory
