Not Chad Smiley

I have been noticing my name appearing on some blog rolls, the latest at Gregg Eldred.  Sorry for the confusion, but my name is Chad Schelfhout.  The smiley comes from a nickname that I received in college, thus ChadSmiley.   I am not offended at all, just wanted everyone to know the truth.

Quick Elementer 2.3 and BlogSphere RichText

The next release of Quick Elementer is just around the corner.  If I can get it done before I go on vacation. :)  It has been delayed because I have been enhancing BlogSphere’s Rich Text publishing.  My first anniversary of this blog also used the new Rich Text publishing, but lacked some of the advanced formatting, but it was a good test.  Below I have added a list of improvements to test/demonstrate how the two back to back outlines will be published (believe me that don’t like that in the current version.

Back to Quick Elementer he major change is how design elements are selected.  The two list boxes had some limitations.  But when it was originally release one of my goals was to have a small foot print.  I have given a little on that goal for better usability.  Now design elements will be selected through a picklist.  The disadvantage with this is only seeing one design element type at a time.


The form will now only have one list box listing all the selected design elements.


Here is the list of other changes:
New Features:
  • Use of views to select design elements
  • Widen the list box of selected design elements
  • Added LotusScript.doc ( lsdoc.org )
  • Added Template Version ( Chris Doig )
Fixes
  • Corrected the dynamic list of categories for Quick Elementer
  • Corrected the dynamic list of categories for Quick Elementer Code

HM

I stumbled across a magazine that I read in collage called Heaven’s Metal. It is now called The Hard Music Magazine. They cover hard Christian music like No Innocent Victim this months cover band. The edit even has his own blog.
Here are a couple of Bands that I listened to back in collage that have been featured in HM: Just to name a few.

Bloglines Hotkeys

Bloglines has added some new hotkeys just like Gmail by Google.  The hotkeys work great and make the navigating much easier and quicker. 

You can now navigate through Bloglines with hotkeys! You will find this legend at the bottom of each feed display page.
Hotkeys: j – next article k – previous article s – next sub f – next folder A – read all r – refresh left pane

I would like to see them set the focus to the right pane after using the hotkeys so that  I can continue to use the keyboard and scroll through the message.
