Awsome! Thanks, Peldi.

I love Balsamiq Mockups and I am passionate about it. So you will hear a lot from me...

Tab and shift-Tab keys

Pressing Tab key should switch to the next open mockup. And shift-Tab should switch to the previous one.

Preferences menu item

I am using Balsamiq on my Mac. On the Macs there are some rules for the menus, and that makes it easier to find standard menu items. One of such menu items is 'Preferences' which covers application wide settings. The item is always located under the menu item that has application name.
It would be great and will make application more 'mainstream' (and easier to sell in the corporate world), if Balsamiq would conform to that standard.
The Preferences' menu would specify default Font family, default font size (13 just does not work for me, so I change it all the time), UI library visibility, Background, etc.

Please allow linking to mockup files in other folders

I have too many mockups in a single folder and they are becoming unmanageable. I would like to have subfolders to group files together, and thus would like an ability to link to files in subfolders.

Victor Gamolsky started following the idea ""Edit" option while in presentation mode." in Balsamiq.

Frankly, I do not like the tooltips. They obstruct tabs, prevent them from being clicked on, and make it even more difficult to find the correct tab. The list in the menu would allow me to see a lot of filenames at once, no matter how long the names are (and mine are long).

Or a key combination. Or may be a hot spot on the page, and when you hover over it, the name of the current mockup is shown, and if you click on it the mockup is loaded in editing mode.

Victor Gamolsky asked a question in Balsamiq on October 06, 2009 21:28:

Let's have the list on all open files in the 'Window' menu

With many mockups open, it is no longer possible to know the mockup name from the tab. Can we have a menu item Window that lists all the open mockups? That way we could find the one we are looking for and go directly to it, rather than clicking through all the tabs. If 'Window menu is not an option, the list of open mockups could be under 'Edit' menu item.

Thank you, Peldi, the arrows are great. What about opening the last active presentation mockup page for editing? It was so convenient before... I know you do not want to open 50+ pages, but can we please have the last one?

1. I still think that when exiting the presentation mode, the last screen should be shown and editable. Not all 50+ but only previously open screens and the last one.
2. it would be helpful if you could add back and forward button on the screen while in presentation mode, perhaps around the current mockup name, like this [ back ] mycurrentmockuoname [ next ]. Next will be disabled if [ back ] was not pressed, just like in a browser

Incorrect rendering of text with escape characters inside

In Mockups, sequence of characters \[ + \] inside text control is shown as [ + ]. When rendered in Napkee, the result is \-\.
