AjaxLife is going to be updated to version 0.3.2. Here is a pair of screenshots demonstrating the added features:
Here’s the new feature list:
- Group list in the IM window
- Group IMs work correctly – including joining, leaving, starting and conversing.
- The position of the map beacon is shown on the minimap if applicable
- You can now change inventory item permissions and descriptions via their properties (right click on the item and pick “Properties” from the menu.)
And a bugfix list:
Additionally, the following was fixed without fanfare in a minor patch to 0.3.1:
- Issue 10: No Way to Scroll Down Friends List.
And the following changes were made:
- The map now shows a waiting indicator when attempting to load data for unknown areas – it no longer shows popup messages.
- The map will let you select blank areas, although teleporting to the, etc. will not work (obviously). These areas will be highlighted in blue instead of red.
I hope you like the changes/improvements/fixes!
Here are some more screenshots! 
Going to add the ability to start your own group IMs tomorrow (hopefully), among other things. 
Coming soon, among other things:
Other changes so far include significantly improved behaviour of those text boxes on the map (they now reflect what the map thinks you want), marking of the map beacon on the minimap (as a red mark), and assorted refactoring. Wee!
Coming once I’m done adding stuffs. 
AjaxLife will (well, should) now function from behind a corporate (or, indeed, any other) proxy, even under IE6. This does, of course, assume that the proxy is not blocking AjaxLife or something.
This was a very common issue, but it should now be fixed. Hooray!
I haven’t actually posted anything in a while. This is because during holidays I take a break from doing anything productive whatsoever.
AjaxLife updates will resume soonish, as soon as I get the backlog of schoolwork out of the way – although development will remain sluggish until mid-June or so, when I’m finished with all my exams and such. But IE6-in-corporate-environment users, I have not forgotten you! Stay tuned for fixes!
Oh, and I have a fancy new computer. Woohoo. Here’s a nice pair of screenshots:
Or, at least, here would be a nice pair of screenshots if WordPress 2.5′s upload facility wasn’t broken with calls to ctype_digit (which doesn’t exist) – what’s wrong with is_numeric (in fact, the patch to rectify the error just replaces all instances of ctype_digit with is_numeric – but I’m far too lazy to do that myself)?
Anyway. Blah blah blah. Exams suck, coursework moreso. Also, this is the first post with tags attached in a while.
This image, currently used on AjaxLife’s login page, would appear to now be explicitly forbidden. Short of just removing it entirely, anyone feel like coming up with a legal alternative that can go on the top-right of the login screen?
We seem to be blocked again. I’m assuming this is a general libsl block.
Grr.
And now we’re fine.
AjaxLife 0.3.0 is up now. Yay!
Here are some release notes:
- Inventory window is fifty pixels wider by default
- Inventory has a context menu
- Inventory items can be renamed (but folders can’t)
- Inventory folders and items can be moved to trash and/or purged
- The trash can be emptied
- Folders can be created
- Properties window for inventory items (read-only for now)
- “Copy UUID” option on inventory items (if you have full permissions) – copies directly to clipboard in IE, opens a dialog with the UUID pre-selected in everything else.
- Inventory items show their permissions on mouseover
- Addition of keyboard shortcuts (same as those used in SL):
- Ctrl-Q logs you out
- Ctrl-T opens the IM window
- Ctrl-I opens inventory
- Ctrl-H opens the chat window
- Ctrl-M opens the map
- Ctrl-Shift-1 opens the stats window
- Ctrl and Command/Apple are interchangeable under Safari
- When used in Fluid with Growl installed, Growl notifications are shown for certain events
- Bugfix: friend lists will no longer display a list of nulls or blanks
- Bugfix: The map window’s “Focus on target” button now actually focuses the target, not your position as of inital login
You can see some screenshots of the new inventory stuff in my earlier post.
I hope you like it.
