I updated my JVM to the version 6 on both windows Me and Linux.
I still have the problem on Windows Me.
The Linux version works fine.]]> jim WordRider Builds and Releases Sun, 17 Dec 2006 14:35:04 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/264/_subject_#msg-264 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/264/_subject_#msg-264 We'll see when I release beta version.

Thanks for testing.

PS. It was released Java SE 6 yesterday. Try to upgrade to this version. WordRider should be at least 2x faster with opening files (and faster to launch).]]> Vity WordRider Builds and Releases Wed, 13 Dec 2006 21:42:09 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/257/_subject_#msg-257 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/257/_subject_#msg-257
I simply cut/copy part of the text from the file opened on Wordrider.

No problem when I use the menu bar, but the problem occurs when I use the rigth click menu.

When I cut/copy with the right click, the paste icon, in the tool bar, is shadowed. So impossible to use it too.

I am using Windows Me. I haven't tried on Linux.

I updated the JVM with 1.5 update 9 and it still does not work.]]> jim WordRider Builds and Releases Tue, 05 Dec 2006 10:18:49 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/242/_subject_#msg-242 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/242/_subject_#msg-242 I wasn't able to reproduce the problem you mentioned. What kind of text did you paste - eg. from extern program? Does it happen always?

Thanks

I came up with a small problem with version 0.8 alpha 3 (wibndows version)
When I cut a piece of text with the right click. It works.
But if I want to paste with the right click menu, the paste fonction cannot be accessed with the right click menu.]]> jim WordRider Builds and Releases Mon, 27 Nov 2006 14:08:45 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/234/_subject_#msg-234 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/234/_subject_#msg-234 Click on the link in the first topic.]]> Vity WordRider Builds and Releases Wed, 22 Nov 2006 14:19:14 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/232/_subject_#msg-232 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/232/_subject_#msg-232
I can't find the 0.8apha3 windows version on this page.
From where can download it ?

I have been using 0.8apha2 for a while, dand I haven't noticed any problem.

Can you give me some specification for the icon in KDE?. I'll ask Rusttaf to create it.
I'll fix the splash screen.

I also plan to release another build today or tommorow - I bundled other new features ;-). Watch this forum :-).

Thank you for your report again.

It's much faster than the 0.75 version.
The transfer fonction works well on my Windows Me + TI connect + TI titanium. It's a great feature.

I tested also the linux version, that works fine too. I haven't tested the transfer on Linux since TIPL2 does not work yet on Linux for Titanium.
Can you add an icon for the KDE desktop ?

On the presentation screen the version is still 0.75. (sorry I haven't found any thing else wrong).]]> jim WordRider Builds and Releases Fri, 03 Nov 2006 12:23:34 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/207/_subject_#msg-207 https://wordrider.net/forum/5/207/207/_subject_#msg-207 the next version of WordRider (after one year) is prepared for your testing and sending suggestions!
