Version 9.3

Back to the list of news

The design app has been improved. In particular, the buttons have more modern look. The learning function and translator have also been significantly improved.

• The learning mode Send by a button got a big improvement and now the sound is played when the sending button is pressed. It works in the same way as the button on the Manual sending page. If you want learn without the sound as before, you can select “Silent mode” option in the dialog with the learning settings. An alternative option is to replace the sound feedback with vibrations. This can be set in the app setting if you check “Use vibrations instead of the speakers to play the Morse code” checkbox there.
• The supports for prosigns has been added to the translator when translating to Morse code. A text enclosed in < > is recognized as a prosign and it’s translated as a single code without letter separators.
• Improvement in the learning – when canceling a custom level, the users return back to the most recently used standard level. In the previous version, they always returned the Level 1, which wasn’t optimal.
• A bigger font for entering your answer answer in the learning.
• Design improvements

Moreover, a few bugs have been fixes:

• Fixed issue that could cause the app to crash on Android on the page for designing a custom learning level when a key on a hardware keyboard was pressed.
• Fixed crash in the rare situation when the users taps the arrow for moving to the previous or next years in the calendar so many times that the calendar gets outside the valid range of dates.
• Fixed support for selecting/de-selecting characters on the page for designing a custom learning level by pressing this character on the keyboard (Windows only).
• Fixed issue with the calendar in the learning history, which disappear if the user draged the mouse over it (Windows only)
• Updated libraries

Update 9.3.5 A minor update to this version has been released with the following changes:

• Migrated to the new version of the library for displaying popup dialogs.
• Fixed possible crash in the learning when the Send by button mode is used.
• Preliminary translation of the app to Russian by Алексею Ш has been added.

Update 9.3.6 Another minor update to this version with the following improvements:

• Improved behavior for easier playback of long messages in the translator. Instead of always playing the message from the beginning as before, playback now starts from the current cursor position. This is convenient for long messages. If you want to play a specific part of the message, move the cursor to that position and then start playback.
• Improved sound characteristics – the smoothing method at the beginning and end of the sound has been changed to be more suitable for Morse code (a 5 ms raised cosine function is used instead of the original 10 ms linear function).
• An Indonesian translation has been added. This is an automatic translation using Google Translate. If you would like to help correct mistakes or improve the translation in general, please contact me.
• Fixed a rare crash when the new level dialog is closed.
