ComicRack 0.9.166-167 released

Apr 06 |10:23 AM

Update: .167 fixes an issue in the Smartlist Editor introduced in .166

This is a mix of maintenance and new features.

First it fixes a big and ugly bug introduced with 0.9.164 regarding thumbnail updates. One of the visible effects in ComicRack was that pages/thumbnails where not updated/displayed correctly. You should update to this version.

I also did some rewrite of the Matcher Selector in the Smart List Dialog. With now over 90 possible Matchers the old Drop Down Box was just not doing it any longer.

Finally, as Microsoft in it's wisdom removed the OS Touch Flick support from Windows 8 (Windows 7 translates these gestures automatically into Page Up/Down), I've now implemented Flick Left/Right support for the Reader myself. Please note, that the Flick gestures are only active when the whole page is visible.

ComicRack 0.9.164-165 released

Apr 01 |13:14 PM

This is quite a big release.

As I rewrote lots of low level stuff I would not be surprised if some bugs are still lurking in it. If you've problems you can always step back to the previous version (but not before submitting the problem and posting in the bugs section of the user forum :))

Big features in this release are Custom User Values with full support in the browser, dialogs and script API and support for moving your ComicDb on a shared SQL server.

Additionally I added another CBR/CBZ/CB7 engine that can be selected with new settings in ComicRack.ini.

UPDATE: I uploaded 0.9.165 that fixes two bugs.

Language Packs

Feb 18 |22:39 PM

ComicRack comes with a lot of language packs out of the box. But as ComicRack is a rather fast evolving application, some of these packs are a bit out of date right now.

If you think you can help update them or create a new one, read this and head over to the language pack section in the user forum.

Thanks to all the people who have invested their time making these packs and maybe some new ones helping to bring them up to date.

ComicRack 0.9.162 released

Feb 10 |13:15 PM

Again, a maintenance release with some new features.

The main new feature is an option to display all thumbnails in the browser as single page with the same size. If turned on, this gives a nice grid layout of your books. The sync dialog now gives detailed information about what is actually happening.
