Back by popular demand

The screenshot below shows the feature everyone seems to be asking for... Yes, the calendar is back!

Now the calendar is a mouseclick away. It works much as it did in 3.0, meaning days with no comics are greyed out, you can click on days etc.

I'm still thinking about Favorites. Thats trickier, as it requires me to maintain state. Brrr...

Why must I wait so long for Tiger? Will there be an "email this comic" feature as well??? ;)

Ok, one more request! Is there a way you can build in an option to remove that push pin all together? Its nice that it can change colors and all, but how about a feature to get rid of it? :D Also, with iComic and iBert if one dragged the currently viewed strip to the desktop it would be saved there. Can that still be done in this version? --Martin--

>> Is there a way you can build in an option to remove that push pin all together? There is a "None" option. I don't know why that isn't in the movie, as its been an option for a while. >> if one dragged the currently viewed strip to the desktop it would be saved there Dragging a widget just moves it around. Most likely I'll add a menu option to Copy to the clipboard so you could paste it wherever. I guess a Save option wouldn't be too much to add to that.

How about a way to quickly trash a comic. Like a bad dilbert, that way we can save only the ones that are good. Thn there is no reason to have a fav feature.

A nice feature (I think a must) would be to support RSS/Atom feeds for Comics that already have a RSS/Atom feed: Two examples: http://www.tapestrycomics.com/dilbert.xml http://www.joyoftech.com/joyoftech/joyoftech.xml
