New Features with Version 1.1 ----------------------------- The following new features were introduced with FM Applic 1.1: o Auto-Load Application Icons Stay on Top of the File Manager The "Keep On Top" option has been added to the Application Properties dialog box. If you select this option, the application's icon will stay on top of the File Manager window. This feature allows you to Drag-Drop files to your auto-load applications even if the File Manager window is expanded to full size. o "Crop" Icon Shrinkage Method (Windows for Workgroups) The "Crop" icon shrinkage method has been added to the Change Button dialog box. If you select this option, a 16x15 section from the upper left hand corner of the icon is copied pixel for pixel, to the toolbar button (i.e. no shrinkage is performed). This feature allows you to create a custom toolbar button using your favorite icon editor. Create your image in the upper left hand corner (16 pixels wide by 15 pixels high) of the icon. o "Unknown" File Status in File Prompt (%@FP) Argument Field The File Prompt argument field now accepts UNKNOWN as a keyword for file-status. Use this keyword if the application can accept a new file or an existing file. This will display a File Name dialog box. Known Problems -------------- 1. Under WIN-OS/2, FM Applic may have problems changing directories. If this is the case, change the "Working directory" for your applications to ".\". This will cause FM Applic to pre-pend the disk and path to each file name passed to the application. 2. Under WIN-OS/2, if you try to run an application and the program file does not exist, the File Manager may abort abnormally. 3. When installing over an existing installation of FM Applic, and you are using the File Manager, the position of application toolbar buttons may be reset (messed up). Simply choose the "Costomize Toolbar" command from the File Manager's "Options" menu. Then you can restore the buttons back to their original positions.
