Download JAlbum 7.3.1

Today version 7.3.1 of JAlbum has been released. This program makes it easy to generate and edit professional looking HTML photo albums. In a well-arranged user interface, photos can be easily adjusted, the order can be changed, the appearance of the web page can be determined and the result can be placed on a homepage via the built-in ftp client. The software is developed in Java and is therefore available for a wide variety of operating systems. The changelog of this release shows the following changes:

changes

• The slide show can now be exited by going past the end
• Various usability improvements to user interface (folder trees can’t be fully collapsed, added tooltips, use of album icon for folder tree etc)
• JAlbum is now smarter regarding what folder to preselect when connecting to a server
• JAlbum will now avoid to propose directory names in publish window that already exists
• Leading and trailing spaces in camera information are now stripped (Olympus cameras had this)
• Added new Tool to reset folder dates to date of most current containing file
• Updated translations. Thank you all translators!
• New language added, Romanian. Thank you Alexandru Bogdan Munteanu

Bug fixes

• JAlbum would trigger a software firewall warning upon startup (when looking for free ports to use for its album sharing server)
• Smart upload was not working with directories containing spaces on ftp server (was uploading everything instead of only changed files)
• Problem uploding to directories containing spaces and not being able to navigate inside such directories in publish window (for ftp servers)
• Compatibility with PositionMap skin was broken
• The delete folder progress dialogue of the publish window wouldn’t tell what directory was being deleted
• JAlbum wouldn’t respect the “make changes” vs “make all” menu options. Would make according to the main make setting instead.

Known issues

• Installing skins in Vista is broken due to Vistas new security system (which prevents an application to add files under its own installation directory). Workaround: Get the .zip version of skins, unzip manually to the “skins” subdirectory of the JAlbum installation directory.
