Within a month of the release of App Stop 2.0 I’ve managed to release App Stop 2.1. The main focus in this release was the user interface, making App Stop look and act the way a polished Mac app should. With 2.1 App Stop looks and works much nicer. download it and see for yourself. App Stop 2.1 comes with the following changes and improvements:
- Priority slider now increases priority when moved to the right, and decreases when moved to the left
- Improved Application Manager UI
- Updated preferences to look and work more like Safari & Mail.app’s preferences
- When items in the menu-bar list are paused they are now colored red instead of displaying “(Stopped)”
- Added ‘All’ filter criteria
- Less frequent nagging for demo users (every 2 days)
- Improved crash/bug reporting (now outputs stack traces and notifies user of exceptions)
- You can now specify a global shortcut that can be used to bring the Application Manager forward
- Improved ‘hide and stop’ reliability
- Your filter criteria will now be preserved between App Stop startups
- Totally rewrote the ’startup at login’ code
- Fixed a bug where the menu item would remain in ‘paused state’ when an application that was paused was killed
- Major memory usage enhancements
- Minor performance enhancements
As always let me know any feedback you may have!
In other news, thank you for all who bought my software on December 7th, you’ve made a net donation of $80 to Child’s Play!
