For those in the know, my little software company is called FloSpace and my first product is a teleprompter that runs on PCs. (No Mac or Linux support right now. \ud83d\ude41 )<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Version 2.2<\/span> features these significant enhancements:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A new tag line!<\/strong> &#8220;Elegance Flows&#8221; The new tag line is featured in a few new places in the UI, such as the startup splash screen and About dialog. I wanted to select a tag line that incorporated the word &#8220;flow&#8221; in it to connote not only how the text smoothly flows up the teleprompter screen, but how using the software helps our customers become more elegant speakers.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Remote Presenter Support:<\/span> After several potential customers sent me emails asking whether the teleprompter player could be controlled with a wireless remote control (such as the type also used to control PowerPoint presentations), I decided to do some investigations. I purchased a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.keyspan.com\/products\/usb\/presentationremote\/homepage.spml\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Keyspan Remote Presenter\">remote presenter control from Keyspan<\/a> and found out that almost all of the requested features already worked! The only features that didn&#8217;t work were speeding up and slowing down the scrolling on the teleprompter. So by hooking into the volume up, volume down, and mute keys, now all requested features are supported. A friend of mine who works at Nokia (my ex-employer, too) has the <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.psiloc.com\/en\/Application,262160,Psiloc+Wireless+Presenter\" target=\"_blank\">PSiLOC Wireless Presenter<\/a> software for his Nokia E61i phone (a cool new phone!), so I&#8217;m hoping to do a quick test on that later, too.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Copy &amp; Paste Support for Segment Title Edits:<\/span> Now when you double click on the tab page for a segment to activate the title editor, you can cut, copy, and paste text in the title editor. It&#8217;s a little feature, I know, but it&#8217;s nice to be able to do it finally.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Bug Fix: Clicking on the Text Size in the Toolbar During Segment Title Edit Mode Caused a Fatal Crash:<\/span> This was a nasty little bug that I hadn&#8217;t even thought about testing for. In short, when you double clicked on the tab page to edit a segment title, then clicked on the text size item in the toolbar, it caused the program to hang. Thankfully, a customer wrote me as soon as he (painfully) experienced this bug, which was one of the main reasons I released version 2.2 so soon. In a future version, I&#8217;ll put in support for changing the text size of the segment title tabs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Update Recommendation:<\/strong> <em>Yes!<\/em> Most updates are softly recommended. However, due to the new wireless presenter support and the fatal bug fix in particular, I highly recommend that FloPrompter customers update to version 2.2. This is, of course, a <em><strong>free update <\/strong><\/em>for all FloPrompter customers! FloPrompter customers can download the latest version on the <a href=\"http:\/\/flospace.com\/downloads.htm\" target=\"_blank\">FloSpace Downloads<\/a> page.<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks to the customers (and potential customers) who&#8217;ve written with feedback about Teleprompter. As you can see, your comments <span style=\"font-style: italic; font-weight: bold\">are <\/span>heard and result in direct improvements to the software!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m pleased to announce that I published version 2.2 of FloSpace FloPrompter.
