What's New
Revision history

4.2.1 Improved: Six more fields in the Edit form show a bubble hint with their text when the mouse hovers. For fields whose content is too lengthy to be read without right-scrolling.
4.2.0 New: For the user's convenience, the font size of the data shown in the Main and Contacts forms can be widely configured, up and down. It is useful for everybody, but especially for those with high-resolution displays or impaired visual acuity.
4.1.9 Improved: Added more functionality to the Email and Website buttons (disabled when the field is empty), in the Contacts form.
4.1.8 Improved: For more user convenience, the Graphs form does not require the user to refresh the data when a change is made in the preferences. It is now an automatic process.
Improved: The Main form adds a new button to open the pop-up menu.
4.1.7 New: The About screen shows the date of the last backup copy.
4.1.6 Improved: Your backup files can now be kept indefinitely, as the app will create a unique folder name every day. This way, copies made today will not be overwritten on the same day next year.
4.1.5 Fixed: I finally managed to solve the very annoying problem that occurred when trying to modify either the Locality or Provenance fields in the Edit form: all text was changed with the first keystroke and the associated list was dropped down, which were not the intended actions.
