Mouseposé 3.0.2
Wednesday, March 05, 2008 - Permalink
Yet another small bugfix release aims to fix most bugs users have been reporting since the 3.0 release last week. If you haven't tried version 3 so far, it's about time now. In case you did not know: the update to the single user license of Mouseposé 3 is free of charge for Mouseposé 2 license holders. Upgrading to a family license, which enables you to use the application on up to five computers in your household, is a real bargain!

Mouseposé 3.0
Friday, February 29, 2008 - Permalink
The latest release of Mouseposé focuses on improving its usefulness for presentations, product training and screencasts. Users requested that the audience should not only see the mouse clicks but also hear them. Presenters love how the Mouseposé effect focuses the attention of the audience on a small area around the mouse, but also wanted to be able to expand the focus to include the window beneath the cursor. Thirdly, users wanted to purchase a license that allows them to use Mouseposé on both their desktop and laptop computers at the same time. All these wishes have been granted.

Leopard Updates
Saturday, October 27, 2007 - Permalink
Apple has finally released Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Boinx Software will provide updates of our products over the next couple of days to ensure full compatibility. Here is an overview of the current status and immediate action items:
- General Issues — All products using the built-in Kagi store (iStopMotion 2, FotoMagico 2 and Mouseposé 2) have an issue with printing and saving the receipt for your purchase. We will provide updates as soon as we receive a new module from Kagi. You can purchase licenses and you will receive an email with all relevant purchase data from Kagi.
- iStopMotion 1.x and 2.x — Both iStopMotion 1.10.3 and iStopMotion 2.0 already work nicely on Mac OS X Leopard. A maintenance release (2.0.1) resolving a few minor issues discovered after 2.0 will be out soon. If you are still using one of the FC versions of iStopMotion 2.0, this is the time to update to 2.0 final. Update: We have just identified a problem with printing flip books. Updates will follow.
- FotoMagico — FotoMagico 2.1.3 and up work nicely. If you are using any earlier version you need to update to version 2.1.3 before upgrading to Leopard.
- Mouseposé — Mouseposé 2.5.2 solves a cosmetic issue with the TalkThrough feature.
- iVeZeen — iVeZeen generally works great on Leopard. However, there's one caveat: When you record very short movies (only a few seconds long), it sometimes happens that the files end up being 2 GB large, even though the only should be a few MB. We never saw the problem when recording longer movies with more than 30 seconds. This seems to be a problem rooted in QuickTime and we are working with Apple to resolve it ASAP.
We have also released a number of Quartz Composer Patches. In general, Quartz Composer Patches developed for Tiger do not work on Leopard. This is due to good changes in the Programming Interface that make Quartz Composer Patches on Leopard much better.
- Line — The Line patch is no longer needed as Leopard now comes with an equivalent. Boinx Line 1.0 will remain Tiger only.
- SetStructureMember — SetStructureMember 1.0 is Tiger only. SetStructureMember 2.0 beta should work on Leopard and unless there are issue reports we will soon release it as final.

The Magic of Having Your Software Tools Upstage Your Demo
Tuesday, February 20, 2007 - Permalink
Susan A. Kitchens (whom I know from blogger times way back...) at 2020Hindsight thinks that Mouseposé is
fabulous for software demos: people can see where the mouse is. I used it when I did the intro to podcasting session at BlogHer, and I used it this past weekend when I presented a Build A Website in a Day workshop. [...] Go get it. And you, too, can experience the magic of having your software tools upstage your demo.
