Just got an update installed which fixed it. Thanks Colovo!

Thanks for posting those suggestions, but we're reluctant to follow those since the app *was* working fine until yesterday. I'm hoping an update can fix this. It is unfortunate that updates have been breaking this software, but at least the fixes generally come quickly!

Raymond Brigleb replied on January 29, 2009 19:48 to the idea "UI functionality for latest release" in Colovo:

I like the new UI, but my partner does not. To her, it's much less intuitive. Without the drawer things take her longer. We both agree that the animation looks kind of hacky. The app seems less responsive and we find that we trust it less. On first launch today, it never appeared until I quit and restarted it. I think the UI especially needs some love and smoothing out!

Thanks for clarifying, I wasn't aware that we could still get our data out!

Raymond Brigleb replied on January 05, 2009 18:52 to the idea "Free plan for one project?" in Next Update:

I agree that there should be a perpetually free plan, like Lighthouse. Or a free open source plan, like Github has. $14/month is a lot to get into the game, and it's hard to really dig in and get a feel when you know your plan is going to expire and you're going to be locked out if you don't pay.

A comment on the update "A fork in the road (An important announcement about I want Sandy)" in I want Sandy:

Agree 100%. I didn't use the service, but I'm disappointed by Rael and Twitter's handling of this. I just seriously think both parties should know better! – Raymond Brigleb, on December 24, 2008 06:53

Thanks for the reply. For now, your suggestion to click on the link in the confirmation message is a good one, it will save me time. Never occurred to me to do so! It's still an extra click, BUT it doesn't force me to slow down and think about what I'm doing, and that's always a good thing.

Raymond Brigleb replied on December 18, 2008 19:27 to the idea "Sort Order in Dashboard" in Next Update:

I think the dashboard could maybe use a bit of love, also. However, I do think that showing things chronologically makes sense. I find myself wishing it would list the latest "activity" actually, rather than just the latest tickets. But for now, I think it probably makes more sense the way it is. I agree; it's tricky.

I do think the numbered grid, at the top, showing Assigned to Me, Opened by Me, and All Issues, is kind of awkward. It's so wide in my browser windows that it becomes difficult to actually use. It's hard to follow those lines evenly across the screen!!!

Raymond Brigleb shared an idea in Next Update on December 18, 2008 19:21:

After updating an issue, allow me to "review" it

When I first submit an issue, I have two buttons - one to just add the issue, and one to add this and then add another. Good idea.

When I am working on an issue, I often write a quick note on that issue, then keep on working on it - using Sifter as a kind of log book or diary as I go.

Therefore, having a second button on the Update/Edit Issue screen, which allows me to enter my changes but keep looking at that issue, would be very helpful. After adding my notes, I bounce back to the project page, and have to hunt that issue down again to keep looking at it!

There's my suggestion. Otherwise, loving Sifter. Great design, very intuitive!

This really is about the only thing missing from an otherwise perfect, and perfectly simple, piece of Mac software!

Raymond Brigleb started following the idea "Mark task completed when submitting time." in Colovo.

Raymond Brigleb started following the idea "Allow for Timepost to reside in menubar alone (not on dock)" in Colovo.

No plans, I'm afraid. There do appear to be several out there already, however...

Thanks Chris! – Raymond Brigleb, on June 26, 2008 01:59

Get rid of those alert messages on every single page!

The alert message at the top of every page in Beanstalk is kind of annoying. It's a little thing, but it takes up space on every single page on the site. Believe me, I know about deployment releases already! I really do! I know all about them! Can I stop being notified about that month-old feature??

Maybe they could only appear on the main dashboard page, but not on any other pages. Or only show me once, and set a cookie or something.

Sorry, not at present, nor are there short-term plans to offer this.

Raymond Brigleb replied on April 04, 2008 17:31 to the question "Need help with installing" in iPhoneMiles:

iPhoneMiles is simply a website - so you just use it on your iPhone like any other website! If you "bookmark" it to your home screen, you will even see a nice icon.
