What's new in PocketBreeze 5.3.04?
1. New "Reschedule & Reminder" dialogs - One of the main new changes you
will find with this new version is the all new "Reschedule & Reminder"
dialogs available through the context menus for both appointments and
tasks on the different PB tabs. With the previous version, using the
Reschedule option users were only capable to modify an item date,
without having the ability to easily change the item's hours or any
additional information. Using the new Reschedule & Reminder dialogs
users can now also modify an appointment hours easily, change all-day
status, modify a task completion date (for those that track completion
dates of tasks) and even more!
The new dialogs were also improved in terms of one-hand navigation in
mind and you will find they now also include an OK button, allowing
users to close the dialog using the OK button for devices with such
hardware button. The entire dialog can be navigated using the D-Pad
control only and hitting the D-Pad action button on any of the
date-pickers on the dialogs will now open PocketBreeze monthly calendar
the regular monthly calendar used by the OS
2. Important context menu improvements - With this new version you will
find some great new improvements implemented with PocketBreeze context
menus! These are not major changes, but the kind of changes that really
helps to improve the overall user experience and navigation of the
application. Among the changes that you will find: new "Edit
appointment"/"Edit task" options added to open items directly in edit
mode using D-Pad navigation, new menu option "Preview Note" which will
open an item note preview window for items including notes and a few
additional re-organizations for the context menu ordering which makes
things much easier to navigate and control
3. Default PIM improvements - Users using PocketBreeze with the default
PIM will now notice that newly created items (appointments, tasks and
contacts) that their creation is canceled will automatically be removed
from PocketBreeze, which is a real time saver! Additionally, smarter
selection of the default starting hours for newly created appointments
was added that will make users life also simpler when creating new items
using PocketBreeze
4. Important fixes - There are several long-waited and important fixes
included with this new version. Among them the bug reported with the
"Sort tasks by reminder with appointments" feature was fixed with this
new version. In addition, the auto-collapse feature that was causing
some confusion with previous version was re-implemented with a better
and simpler solution as part of this new version - now there are two
simpler separate options available, the first whether to show/hide empty
grouping titles on the Calendar tab; When visible, users can now
configure if they wish to view the "Empty grouping titles item" - when
choosing to hide it the "No available items" string won't be visible and
therefore causing empty grouping titles to remain empty, which was users
goal when using the previous auto-collapse grouping titles option. This
way making things more user friendly and easy to use
