Hi Guys,

It took a long time to released, but here is it : a full new version with many features :
- window is now resizable and the neck will fit the window
- you can open several windows
- neck customisation : number of frets, of strings ( from 4 to 7 ), left hand option, size and font of the notes,…
- You can add your own tunings
- Height and width of the window is saved, as well as other options
- When displaying Degrees or Orders, the notes are shown

In case you have troubles reading preferences while upgrading, you can delete the Guitar_Tools.Pref and Guitar_Tools.Pref in /home/Library/Preferences/ on Mac and in \Documents and settings\User\Application Data\ on Windows

GT070 has been succesfully tested under Leopard, SnowLeopard, XP, Vista, and Windows Seven too ! It should work correctly under Tiger too.

Hope you will enjoy !
Regards,
Buddy

Building the site, adding some new functionalities to GuitarTools took me much more time than I thought.

More, I had to migrate to a new version of my development environment, which was released by the mean time.

Gosh, too little compatibility, I had to rewrite plenty of code !!! I'm wondering how one could manage big development projects using this, if he has to rewrite his code every three months...

However, here we are. The first public version is on his way, the site will be publish soon.

I hope you 'll enjoy both of them. Read More...

Building the site...

In fact, it's a long way. Even if it's quite funny to try different products, you always have to fight a new problem or limitation.

Anyway, I made my choice and I'll stick to it !

What do you think about it ? Read More...

Ok, Guys, you told me to try, there we go !

I follow your advises and I'll publish GuitarsTools.

First, I have to review it and to build a site. Let's go to work....
