Behold Version 1.1 - Blog comment by klemens - 1 Jul 2015
Thanks for this explanation, Louis. I see what you mean.
Events with unknown dates are really a special case, and I didn't think of that. Where do they show up now in the life events?
I guess with the presentation of life events, users will quickly notice when an event has no date. And then they may make an ...

Behold Version 1.1 - Blog comment by lkessler - 30 Jun 2015
Klemens,
I've taken a look at the idea of putting the date before the event. But at this point, it won't work. It only became apparent to me when I checked my code and determined my data structures. You need some complex examples with dates and places and sources and notes to see the problem. I won't try ...

Thanks, Keith.
And thanks Klemens for your ideas. Yes, I do agree with you that the age on the first line may be confusing as to whose age it is. I like your suggestion that the date and age be kept first and the relationship and life event be added following that. Also this would allow the "With Wife" to ...

Awesome! Can't wait to try it out. I also took a look at the planned features for version 2, and they look very exciting!

Congratulations for the new version!
I have just played around with it for a short time. First thing I have to say is that the Life Events are really GREAT. They make me see connections between people and events much easier, and will definitely help with finding some mistakes in the data, too.
It takes a ...

I think you should not let others tell you how to spend your free time, including me ;)
As for the 1.1 update, the changelog is very impressive, and it will be a very big step forward to have "life events".
If you think that a rudimentary editor is possible to add quickly, without it being in the way of the ...

Rob, Rich, Deckie,
I really appreciate the supportive words.
But really, what I want too is to get the editing capability into Behold. So it does make sense that I should not work on the lesser things, but work only on what is needed to get there.
There is lots to do, but it will happen much faster if ...

Seems a little suspect that all of a sudden there are 3 "scathing" reviews in a very short time period that are almost parallel to each other. Makes one wonder...
As far as the waits between versions, plans for editing, etc. there certainly is a grain of truth there. You, yourself have expressed irritations ...

Louis,
I wonder how many of the reviewers have ever tried to write a program as complex as Behold? Or any program for that matter? I purchased Behold many years ago and although I don't use it daily, I do use it, like it and find it useful.
As for your pricing model, it works for me.
As for speed and ...
