TRINFINITY SOFTWARE RELEASES TIME TRACK 1.2.3 FOR MACINTOSH AND WINDOWS

For immediate release.

NEW YORK, N.Y. - - March 6, 2003 - - Trinfinity Software released today an update to Time Track, it's popular "time tracking" software.

This update fixes the following bugs:

Fixed a bug that caused an OutOfBoundsException to occur in the Rate Calculator. This error only occurred when the user specified zero as the number of recent rates to save. This error forced the application to crash.

Fixed a bug that caused a NilObjectException too occur when running Time Track on a locked volume, like a disk image, and pressing the Start button.

Fixed a bug that caused the special "Launch Time Track" file to opened and displayed when the user turned on the "Launch Time Track when you start your computer" option. This file is created in the Startup Items folder on Classic Mac systems to get the system to launch Time Track when the computer boots up.

Fixed a bug in the File->Open Log menu item that was displaying invisible files.

Fixed another bug in the Rate Calculator's log file popup menu that was displaying invisible files.

Fixed a bug that caused the License Agreement to be shown each time the application was launched even though the user had already agreed to it.

Fixed a bug that caused the application to crash when reading an old Time Track 1.0.3 preferences file. This would occur if a Time Track 1.0.3 user upgraded to 1.2.2 or higher.

The Open Log menu in the File menu is now disabled if there are no logs.

Time Track 1.2 introduced several extremely useful features including the new AutoTrack feature, which allows users to automatically track the time spent using almost any application without having to click on the start and stop button. This feature has been designed to greatly enhance workflow and prevent the user from losing time because they forgot to start logging. The AutoTrack Monitor window allows the user to see which AutoTrack applications are running and how much time has elapsed since they started being logged. New features have been added to allow Time Track to run autonomously in the background, including the ability to have Time Track launched when the computer boots up and the ability to send the application to the background when launched.

Time Track is now AppleScriptable and the downloadable archive contains sample scripts for controlling Time Track. One of the included samples is a FolderAction script that can be used turn logging on when a folder is opened and turn logging off when the folder is closed. This is a great solution for users that want to track the usage of files rather than applications.

Time Track's Control Strip Module (CSM), called Time Track Strip, is now complete. This CSM gives user's the ability to start and stop logging without having to bring Time Track to the front. Time Track Strip's icon reflects the current logging status so that user's can know at a glance whether they are logging or not.

Time Track now automatically checks to see if there is a newer version available and informs the user if there is one available. This feature can be disabled. The user can also manually check for updates via the "Check For Updates" menu item to the "Online" menu.

Numerous other improvements have been made to make using Time Track easier and faster, including a clock on the main window that shows the time elapsed since the user began logging, a window menu to allow the user to select between the open windows, the ability to export log files to other formats including TDF (Tab Delimited File), undo and redo support for log file editing, a recent items menu, a recent descriptions popup menu, a recent rates popup menu, and the ability to print all of the log files at once.

The specific issues addressed in this and previous updates are listed in the "Time Track Version History" file located in the "Documentation" folder of the downloadable archive.

Time Track 1.2.3 costs $24.95 for a single user license. This update is free for all registered Time Track users. New users can download and evaluate Time Track 1.2.3 for 30 days.

Time Track 1.2.3 is available for the following platforms:
