Thanks Guys. I look forward to checking it out.

Thanks!! I tried it out for a sec and ran into my problem again after a few minutes... I'm starting to wonder if its not a problem on my side after all.

Generally things seemed faster and more responsive up until the problem surfaced and it didn't feel bogged down up until my problem occured. As my partner also had a similar problem before and no one has reported being frozen out of their interface, I'm starting to wonder if its not something to do with a Japanese or 2-byte compatible system problem or something. I'll try it out again ASAP when I have a few moments. Thanks in the meantime!

We did a lot of testing with this version and we were not able to reproduce this problem. You may also try to run it with the activity monitor and watch the memory/cpu usage. It would be intersting to know if Modul8 is still running or if it is simply frozen (CPU % for Modul8).

It could be be a problem only on 2 bytes system... Do you use the text field ? We already had some problem with unicode and QT in the past. I'll try to do some tests with a japanase account to see if I can reproduce it.

i didn't get an e-mail

not to worry?

support[at]garagecube.com is your friend.

The good news is that the V2.0.1 has an integrated updater... So we won't have to deal anymore with all these email troubles (junk mail filters, email not updated, typo in the email subscription...) for future releases.
