That was a rookie mistake. I was using _ as a "special separator"...not that special after all... ;) Fixed in 1.0.34, coming right up

Yup, I see it too. Strange, let me take a look. :( – Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni, on September 05, 2008 20:31

Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni replied on September 05, 2008 20:27 to the idea "Stronger JIRA integration (and versioning)" in Balsamiq:

I have implemented stronger JIRA versioning by doing something different:
- mockups now loads all existing mockups attached to an issue on load, so that you can edit one easily
- mockups now only keeps the last version of the image and all versions of the data are accessible
- added a "save as new" option to create mockup modifications
- added an automatic naming convention for new mockups, which uses the current date and time (so that it's easy to sort many mockups)

Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni replied on September 05, 2008 20:22 to the idea "Versioning workaround" in Balsamiq:

I now only keep the latest version of the image around, but save all versions of the bmml file (the data). Older versions get grayed out but are still accessible if you click on them.

this was fixed in 1.0.32

Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni replied on September 05, 2008 20:20 to the question "How does JIRA/Mockups handle Mockups with duplicate names?" in Balsamiq:

The proposal above was implemented in 1.0.32 - it seems to work well. Oh and now mockup files are called bmml files, not xml (the contents are the same).

Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni replied on September 05, 2008 20:20 to the question "Open file directly from Mockups" in Balsamiq:

The new dialog (more or less) was implemented in 1.0.32.

Ah, I get it, thanks. That dialog works differently on the mac! I'll fix it, thanks for the screenshots, worth 1000 words! :)

Here is a set of screenshots that hopefully help (btw, I'm using 1.1.54)

A comment on the idea "Using BMML as a file extension for Mockups?" in Balsamiq:

What version are you using? The bmml support was added pretty recently. It should allow you to load both kinds. – Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni, on September 05, 2008 05:29

Adam replied on September 05, 2008 05:26 to the idea "Using BMML as a file extension for Mockups?" in Balsamiq:

In this case, the Desktop version. This isn't a big deal, but right now it, by default, looks for xml files, rather than BMML files.

Doh, that was just my bad. Easy to fix

Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni replied on September 05, 2008 05:19 to the problem "Opening existing .bmml file in JIRA causes error" in Balsamiq:

Hmm, that's strange. I'll take a look.

A comment on the idea "Using BMML as a file extension for Mockups?" in Balsamiq:

Are you talking about the JIRA or Desktop version? The latest JIRA version only looks for BMML files, the Desktop version allows you to open both (for backward compatibility) – Giacomo 'Peldi' Guilizzoni, on September 05, 2008 05:18

Adam reported a problem in Balsamiq on September 05, 2008 04:02:

Opening existing .bmml file in JIRA causes error

When clicking the "Add/Edit UI Mockup to this issue" link on an issue with an existing .bmml file we get the following error:

Adam replied on September 05, 2008 01:33 to the problem "text-field going off screen and alt-drag to copy" in Balsamiq:

Peldi, the Alt-Drag is a bit off right now. When I drag a duplicate copy, it jumps away from where you intend. You see this too?

Adam replied on September 04, 2008 21:37 to the idea "Using BMML as a file extension for Mockups?" in Balsamiq:

Right now on open it defaults to looking for xml files. Will you change that to .bmml files in the future?
