After Glenn's breakdown, :D it made me wonder about something.
Would you rather have unlimited editors but takes more work or a redefined set of editors that you can just drag and drop.
The predefined amount of editors was similar to the older version where you can just drag the editors over.
Thanks,
Thomas

Believe it or not---I don't know the answer yet. I am not as skilled as others using the software and surely haven't tried as much.
The idea of having unlimited editors while customizing sounds great to me. I am thinking the ones listed when you click on the "property editors icon".
However, I am "getting it". I just need to plan more in advance of building.
I may just go ahead and build this one--and let you take a look. (control your laughter--hehee)
I know there are probably easier or better ways to accomplish what I am doing and I will work on that.
Don't know how long it will take for software to do the build--will post or send after.

You said "after Glenn's breakdown"---who said I was finished--:D

Hi Thomas,
I'd rather have unlimited editors which will make this more powerful.
But....
Since there is such a strong learning curve to newbies like myself to use this software...
It would be great to have some working hand on examples of projects that we could import into TSB to understand how it works.
I'm a visual and do kind of guy (if part of the equation is left out I'm lost). ;)
Thanks for the video's. They are helpful. The only problem I had was watching them and then forgetting which one had certain information I needed. (ie. how to create tabs, etc.)
It would be nice to have step by step instructions.
Thanks for creating TSB and brander.
Best Regards,
Jim
PS. This was a very helpful tip:
"I like to use a mind map when laying out my ideas. I add a central piece for the software project itself and then add topics around the project for the windows or software objects. For each software object I add sub topics which are the editors.
Once that is all layed out, I fire up TSB and start creating the software objects. I don't even create the software project until I am done with the software objects.
Create the software project and then add all the software objects I just created. BAM done. Sometimes I forget and have to add a new field but it is very little to add at that time."

I definite favor unlimited editors, but a drag and drop feature would be nice.
I would also like to see a table editor where you can specify the #rows and #columns. I hope this is on the list of Thomas' feature update.

Hi Jim,
I am planning on turning some of those videos into a pdf tutorial. I know Tink wanted them but she said it was to make my life harder. :D
I will create some projects and let you download the layouts.

Hi Daniel,
What do you mean by table editor? For the window?

What! :eek: You can't make unlimited editors AND have them drag and drop :p
I vote for unlimited editors. The only way to learn the software is take time to play with it. I create objects with editors in them, then put them in a software project just to see what they do. Once I know what they do, I can think about how to actually use them in a production software.
Thomas has said many times, and even in his videos, to pre-plan your software. Draw it out on a piece of paper if you don't have any mind mapping software. Personally I like to do the paper thing first, then map it out.

I'm greedy... I want BOTH!!!! The PDFs AND your life made more difficult! :D
I am with Glenn on this point. I am not far enough along to know which I would prefer. I am slowly starting to get the big picture... from there I'll start fiddling.
Like Jim, I am *see and do*
I just snagged your WSO/TigerArticleMaker. Being able to watch the video and then play with the software should go a long way in terms of getting the whole concept into my blonde brain.:rolleyes:
I am enjoying and benefitting from the videos... but I LOVE being able to mark up a printed PDF... with color coded pens, of course! LOL
Thank you for all of the resources you have been providing. I am expecting this all to become an enjoyable income producer and marketing tool.

Hi Thomas,
What I mean by a Table Editor is having a single editor to create a matrix of fields (x, y), to tabulate data. Essentially just a placeholder to enter data in grid like form, similar to inserting a table in a doc file.
If you have a long list of items, the tedious way is to enter a label and a field (text editor) for each item.

Which WSO is this? Do you have a link?
I may already have it, cause Thomas usually takes all my money when he offers something. :cool:

Hi Mike -
Here it is:
http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers-forum/36576-article-marketing-software-resell-rights-only-17-a.html
I don't know whether it is a new WSO or not (I had been avoiding the WSO forum! LOL)
The great thing is, this is one of the apps I had been going to build for my personal use anyway!

Can we rebrand this like the pdf maker and thumbnail maker?

Good question! I don't have a clue!:D
I don't anticipate using the reseller option very much, due to the nature of my niches...
On the other hand, I am *All About Branding!*

It was new. Took me a whole half hour to create with TSB. :cool:
I didn't tell you because your wife called me and told me to stop. She wanted Christmas gifts this year. :D
The offer was just the software. I didn't include the layout file that can be used for branding.
I will put up the layout file if you want to import it into your TSB.
Tink, send me over your Paypal address so I can refund you. You didn't need to purchase it. ;)
I will post it later.

What? More Christmas gifts? I already gave her a new bottle of dish detergent :D
I would love you to put up the layout file. May give me more ideas. Seems seeing how others work always gives good ideas.

Wow, Thomas! Thank you soo much... PM sent
@ MikeM - I thought you knew I prefer Classic Palmolive!
Seems seeing how others work always gives good ideas.
I am finding that seeing software examples AND watching the videos is helping a LOT! Now if I can just get thru TNNA in Jan and then have some time to focus on this... ;-)

oops, that was on my list to give to my 1kperday forum...
I'll just send them to your WSO :D
I hope you aren't reading my thoughts :eek:
