Re: Pyware 6.0.6 Update not updating version number
George, Also on MacOS 10.6.8 and thank you for seeing the same issue and documenting it much more thoroughly than I... I often check the Pyware site just because the built-in updater sometimes simply doesn't "see" the update as available... we are heading into the busy season soon (now for some of u...

Re: Pyware 6.0.6 Update not updating version number
Dustin, I just downloaded the updater to 6.0.6. When I run it, it says it is updating to 6.0.6 but the version number in the "About" screen still shows 6.0.5. This is the Macintosh updater, just for clarification... Also includes the built-in "Update" feature... when I check for updates within Pywa...

Re: Adding "handle" for morp, bezier and follow the leader
I too would like the tools to be a little more like graphic arts programs (yes, I use Adobe quite a bit, but not for a living...) and less like CADD. I'm a truly "visual" person, and I often see one shape while mapping out the music in my head or in rough scene sketches, but end up with another shap...

Print the Production Sheet?
Hey! Is there a way to print the "Production Sheet" in Pyware 5? It would be handy to have for those times when we're running blocks of pages to have the counts for each set handy for reference during blocking and chunking... If there is a way, can someone point me at it (short of doing a screen cap...

Re: From Backwards to standard writing
Okay, I had to go through the instructions a couple of time before they made a difference... I was trying to add pages via the "Production Sheet" and that didn't work... once I added the counts to the actual 3D file, using the "Count Editor" then it worked...
Thanks!
Thanks!

From Backwards to standard writing
I have what I hope is a simple problem that I am simply missing something on... I started out by creating a series of tabs for the first few pages of the drill. Then I wrote the main band opening backwards, since I knew where I wanted them in four pages time... Then I went back to 'regular' writing,...

Hey Pyware! This would be such a massive *win* for me!

I'd buy an iPad *just* to be able to do this... then all I nee...

Re: Using the pit space
BOA rules let you go 12 ft. in front of the front sideline. To play it safe, I never chart anyone more than 6 steps in front. You can go as far off the sides and back as the stadium allows. As a funny story, we found out the hard way in Iowa that front sideline and goal lines are out of bounds. Of ...

Re: what do you charge?
What seems to be the going rate for drill design? For me it depends on a number of factors: 1) Size and experience of the unit. If the unit is small and inexperienced I generally give them my "rookie" discount. Also, many new bands don't actually march a full show (i.e. 8 - 10 min), so I charge les...
