Download Rainlendar 2.6 Build 85 Beta

A new development version of Rainlendar was released this weekend. With this program it is possible to display a calendar on the desktop. Rainlendar is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X, and is completely customizable to make. For example, the language and appearance can be adjusted, an alarm can be set and a to-do list can be kept up to date. Rainlendar is available in a free Lite version and a paid Pro version. The latter, which costs about ten euros, has the ability to share the calendar and has support for synchronization with Outlook and Google Calendar. Below you can find everything that has changed in the program since the previous entry in the Meuktracker:

Changes in Rainlendar 2.7 BETA build 85:

• Changing to simple skin options didn’t remove the active window list. Fixed.
• Double clicking a skin or addon showed a DDE error. Fixed.
• Script timers got broken in the previous build. They should work now again.
• Fixed log for the Linux and Mac builds.
• Message box with no parent window remembers its position.
• The alarm window should stay now better on top of other windows.
• The lock file is now stored to /tmp on Linux and Mac.
• The task priority wasn’t set correctly to Outlook. Fixed.
• Outlook showed empty and non-existing categories as separate. To fix this Rainlendar doesn’t create empty category properties anymore.
• The exception date increases by the current recurrence when the “Add” button is clicked.
• The task list header format for start and due date is now customizable from advanced options.
• Added import limit setting for the Outlook calendar.

• When editing RTM tasks now only the changed fields are send to the server which should improve the performance.

Changes in Rainlendar 2.7 BETA build 84:

• Fixed text wrapping when the area gets really small.
• Column order in the manager can be changed by dragging (only supported on Windows though).
• It’s now possible to define any file for the alarm. All non-audio files are executed instead of played back.

• The windows stay visible with Aero peek.
• Some of the colors in the old ini format skins were messed up. Fixed.
• Playback of the alarm file was synchronous on other platforms than in Windows. Fixed.
• Recurring Outlook events which were originally created as all day events but which had time defined did not have time in Rainlendar. Fixed.

• Added week and day views to the Shadow4 skin.
