CapeSoft Newsletter #43
- February 2005 -
Hi All,
Now that we are all settling in to the new year, things are looking very
bright and exciting here at CapeSoft. We have had a
few new beginnings within the last month that I would like to share
with
you
all. But more on that later...
CapeSoft Email Server
v2.20 Gold of the Email Server has been released. The Email Server has
a number of important benefits to you:
Firstly, it's a great tool for managing email in your office or at home.
Its attractive price ($30) is hard to beat. It does the job and is very
easy
to
setup. (If
you need more convincing read here: http://www.capesoft.com/utilities/EmailServer/CapeSoftEmailServer.htm#Quotes).
Secondly, if you are a developer or a computer techie it's a great tool
to install at your clients or friends sites. You can charge some good money
for installing this product, and you'll look like a hero.
Thirdly, if you are a Clarion Developer, the source code is
available. This allows you to customize the email server, add your own
functionality, as
well as seeing first hand how to inter-operate the various NetTalk objects
inside the Email Server.
All-in-all this is one of our winner products.

CapeSoft HotDates v1.15 Beta
One of the obvious omissions in the initial release of HotDates was the lack
of a DayScheduler. Not anymore. We're proud to announce the inclusion of the
Scheduler control template, which completes the HotDates family of date-related
control templates. This doesn't mean that we'll be resting on our lourels, as
there'll be more releases following shortly with extra features and tweaks that
will making this product an even more powerful tool.
HotDates features:
- A 1 to 12 month Calendar control template - displaying color-coded date
information.
- Print the calendar as you see it.
- Legend control styler, making coloration easy and effective.
- A 1 month 'Update' type calendar with more expanded detail (per day).
- A 1 to 100 day planner control template (with zoom in and out).
- A Day scheduler.
- A DatePicker control template.
- Update your information directly from the calendars.
- ABC and Legacy application template support.

CapeSoft Draw v2.13
The latest release of Draw adds a number of exciting new features and revamped
documentation.
The new features include:- Smooth (anti-aliased) fonts.
- New methods
to draw objects such as spheres and shaded ellipses.
- New DrawHeader
template for adding great looking headings to each window in
your app.
The DrawHeader template allows you to easily add great looking headings
to each of your windows. The headings are fully customisable, so you can globally
change the header colour and style to suit your needs.
Another advantage of this is that your DrawHeader is now easily edited, so displaying
record specific info, or translating
your app into other languages is breeze.
CapeSoft Draw allows you to easily create any graphical effect that you desire,
with fast, flicker-free drawing and instantaneous refreshes. The Draw library
provides a large number of functions that make creating even complex effects
easy – from objects such as spheres and shaded shapes to multiple layers
and transparency types.
