[lace] Lace for iPad and iOS10 - important

2016-09-21 Thread Jean Leader
The recent release of iOS 10 (September 2016) causes Lace for iPad to crash on 
launch. The iPhone version is not affected. 

Unfortunately there is no quick fix for this and Lace for iPad will have to be 
restructured and rebuilt from scratch. We sincerely apologize for this 
inconvenience and will do all we can to expedite the release of a new version, 
but regret that it is likely to take several months. In the interim, we can 
offer a copy of the iPhone app to anyone who has purchased the iPad app. This 
can be mounted on the iPad under iOS 10, although it does not take advantage of 
the full area of the iPad.

If you have already purchased Lace for iPad it will work fine up to iOS 9 - 
it’s just the latest update to iOS 10 that is the problem.

[lace] Lace for iPad

2013-12-07 Thread Clay Blackwell
Dear Lacemakers,

I was recently privileged to be able to test David Leader's Beta version of 
Lace on my iPad Air!  I had installed the iPhone version earlier this fall 
and was impressed, but having the program enhanced for the larger iPad screen 
really makes it even better!

The program is spectacular, to say the least!  Pictures of each piece of lace 
are clear and beautiful, and large enough to be able to see the distinguishing 
features!  (If you used the iPhone version on your iPad, as I did, you could 
click to increase the size of the pages, but this resulted in a loss of 
resolution.).  The information is organized in several different ways, making 
it very user friendly.  You may also explore many types of grounds found in 
lace, as well as the definitions of broader types of lace made.  Having such a 
comprehensive source so accessible is wonderful!  The best part is that new 
information can be added as it becomes available to David.

For those who already have the phone app, you'll notice an excellent addition 
on the iPad app:  there is a tiny globe in the upper right-hand corner of the 
screen, and tapping this while looking at a piece of lace will show you a map 
which indicates where the lace was traditionally made.  I love this feature!  
It is very interesting to see the subtle similarities and differences in laces 
from various locations.

The program is now available in the App Store, and if you have an iPad, you can 
download it!  It is well worth the $2.99!

Thanks David, for all of the work that went into this and thank you Jean...  I 
know you were very involved in the project as well!

I agree here with Clay.  I too was privileged enough to test the beta version 
on Chris's ipad as well as on my old iphone and was well impressed with it!!  
Chris always insists that I am the only person he knows who can crash an 
apple and I haven't crashed this programme (yet LOL)

As Clay says, the programme is now available in the app store, and I'm sure 
they'd appreciate your feedback too!!!

Thanks Jean  David for all your hard work and allowing some of us to test it 
for you!  It's brilliant!!!

I second this - since I also had that great opportunity to beta test the app, I 
can say that it's very useful and clearly structured. This will be really 
helpful if it comes to determine some lace you come across. Also just browsing 
through the lace styles and grounds is thrilling for anyone interested in this 
area of needlework (uhm, can bobbin lace be called needlework? Or rather 
pinwork? In German there's only one word for needles and pins: Nadel).

Best, Achim from Berlin, which turned all white the last couple of hours

Dear all,
I think it has been a great idea to produce this application for our 
mobile devices. In effect I bought it when JeanDavid informed on 
Arachne and I installed perfectly the version for Iphone, on the Ipad. 
It looked like in a smaller way but there was and worked fine.
 It is of great help for us, people who are not experts, only fans in 
identification and history of laces, to have the information just 
besides you when it can be needed.


I was very pleased when JeanDavid announced the Ipad version, so I 
offered to test it.
I am delighted. The application is designed to provide reference up to 
60 individual styles of lace, their historical and geographical context 
as well as their features.

And, one of the most important thing is that pictures are excellent.

Thanks for the work!

Carolina de la Guardia
