(the product formerly known as) Epoch

... but if in the long and lonesome times of coding resizeable interfaces you should happen to stumble over a screenshot of some of those GUI parts you think are already presentable and post them here, we wouldn't mind a bit

Cheers,

Tom

Yes, Colin, please do feel free...

So, what's news? Has the name been decided on?

[colin@loomer]

Yes, a name has been picked, and it is one suggested which was suggested in this thread. I'll announce it when I have more PR materials, ie screenshots, to show.

Other than that, progress is still progressing. The big change in all Loomer plug-ins to vector based graphics has been a long journey, but well worth it: the interfaces look really lovely when scaled up. And the plug-in hosting portion of Epoch has also been rewritten, bringing it more in line with what I think people wanted from Epoch as a host. Again, a lot of work, but something that I feel made sense to do before beta, rather than at some point in Epoch's future.

Cool news on the progress with 'Ex-Epoch' Colin. Still think it was a good idea to get it right before beta, especially with as many moving parts as this one will have.

Also.... are any of the resizable GUI versions available yet?

[colin@loomer]

I'll shortly debut the resizeable UIs in an update to Shift. Once I'm convinced it works fine in all hosts, I'll push out update releases for the remaining product line. It's hard to go back to tiny UIs once you've experienced the joy of a full-screen one!

Looking forward to that Shift update

That'd be great, actually. I'll take you up on this offer when I've got a Shift update ready. Thanks!

Hi Colin

Is there a possibility we will see something in 2013 or is this likely to appear way off in 2014?

Thanks

Absolutely me too!

I'd like to get this out in 2013, and according to my roadmap it's possible, but as you all know by now me and plans do not always agree on how long things will take. Seriously though, I am still aiming for a (late) 2013 public release.

that'd be great - I'm still checking back and still keen :)
