Thunderbird 3.1.4 - Acrobat Attachment

Submitted by heyix01 on October 6, 2010 - 8:22am

Just a small hint to the development-team of Thunderbird portable - related to the functionality of Adobe Acrobat Pro:

Acro Pro offers a quickly way to sent the current opened PDF's via email. Therefore you just have to select file/sent as email and then Acro opens the current Mail-Client and attaches the PDF automatically - very practicable and very, very quick!!!

But it does not work with the portable editions :-(((

PA.c Installer log file

Submitted by Xandl on October 3, 2010 - 8:33pm

Hello,

is it possible to get an install/update log with the new portable application install program? I would like to be able to review what happened during the install and update process. This should be integrated into the installer, so that a log is available for every application distributed here (all new ones).

Favorites

Hi everybody,

I really like the favorites function. Would it be possible to split the portable apps menu into a favorites area with 5 entries, scrolling possible, and a normal program area? It would be very helpful.

Submitted by Moonbase on September 25, 2010 - 10:31am

TeamViewer v5.1.9192 is out since 2010-09-21.

May I suggest some improvements to whoever currently develops the offical PA.c version?

The currently available version 5.1.9160 can leave traces in the host system's registry at:

HKCU\Software\Teamviewer\Version5.1\
HKLM\Software\Teamviewer\Version5.1\

Also, the "TeamViewer.ini" file is kept in three places:

App\DefaultData\settings\TeamViewer.ini
App\teamviewer\TeamViewer.ini
Data\settings\TeamViewer.ini

Multiple Launchers with PAL

Submitted by shanet on September 19, 2010 - 9:48pm

Hey guys,

I have a few apps that require multiple launchers quite like has been done in open office and am wondering if the same is possible with the PAL?

I am aware that the launchers in OO.org are done straight from the NSIS code, but its worth a try asking isn't it?

Also, if it isn't possible, will it be implemented in future versions of the PAL?

Many thanks,

Shane Thompson
