Matchware Releases Service Pack 1 for MindView 3

FYI

I just found out that Matchware has released Service Pack 1 for Mindview 3 which can be downloaded from their website. I have upgrade my version of MindView 3 BE to the latest version without a hitch. MindView 3 feels faster when changing from the various views. Going from a Mind map to a Gantt Chart is much faster than in previous versions. Give it a try and let me know what you think. You can download the Service Pack 1 by clicking on this link. According to the Matchware website here are some of the features of the Service Pack 1.

This Service Pack contains the following changes:

Service Pack 1:

• Panels now include scroll bars when screen resolution is low or when space is limited.
• Converting between views has been slightly optimized.
• Branch text editor: Several usability issues and other problems have been corrected.
• Icons: The Icons gallery now closes upon selection of an icon.
• Outline view: The font settings can now be changed as expected.
• Spellchecker: The problem whereby correct text was sometimes underlined in red has been resolved.
• Word export:
  • PDF files are now handled correctly.
