Ghillie Tracks Installer: For Windows only, does NOT require the installation of any other software.

• New Install - Use this link if you haven't installed Ghillie Tracks yet.

  • v1.0.13

• Upgrade - Use this link if you've installed a prior release of Ghillie Tracks. This upgrade can be applied on all previous releases.

  • v1.0.13

Ghillie Tracks Source Code: Requires a web server, PHP (developed with PHP 5.2.5) and sqlite (developed with 3.6.8). Its not been tested in this environment, I fully expect that there will be some issues. I hope to test OS X in the future.

• v1.0.13

Version 1.0.13

• Corrected problem with export function not exporting ID on DanceData album and publication search results pages.
• Added "I Have" ID to search results pages for Tunes
• Added the ability to store and search for whether a recording has two chords in the My PC Inventory module.
• Added production year and LP/MC/CD catalog numbers to DanceData album search.
• Added production year to My PC Inventory album search.

Version 1.0.12

• Added Export button to most pages that display a list of items. Clicking the export button will open Excel and populate the list of items in a spreadsheet. If Excel is not installed on the computer, you will be prompted for a file name and the list will be saved as a tab-delimited file.
• Added Restore option to the General pulldown menu. This function will restore your databases from a previous backup.

Version 1.0.11

• Added "I Have" ID to search results pages for Album, Dance and Publication
• Corrected some column width issues on some search results pages
• Improved handling of medley types on album import
• Corrected problem with cancelling a tune search in the "Submit to DanceData" function on the Album Detail page.
• Added multiple CD Set support to "Rip and Add".
• Added alias option to tune search.

• Corrected "Import I Have" logic for dances. Upgrading to 1.0.11 will correct the database for anyone who ran the "Import I Have" function prior to version 1.0.11.

  In Ghillie Tracks marking the dance as "I have" indicates that a leaflet of the dance is owned. If the dance is in a publication that you own, then the publication is marked as "I Have" and the dance is not. The dance search options let you specify both criteria. In versions prior to 1.0.11, the "Import I Have" process marked all dances with "I Have" in all publications marked as "I Have".

Version 1.0.10

• Corrected results count on My PC Inventory Recording search. In version 1.0.9 it always reported "Found 2 recordings" regardless of the number of rows found.
• Changed text editor window size and scrolling for Textual My Doc editor so that the toolbar remains readily accessible. Text editor height and width are now dynamic depending on window height and width.
• Added "Enqueue All" button to My PC Inventory Album Detail, can now enqueue all of the recordings on an album.
• When associating an existing album in My PC Inventory to a DanceData album, the "I Have" information for the DanceData album is now updated. In previous releases the "I Have" information was updated when an album was first loaded, but not if the association was made after the album was created.
• Added a "General Preferences" page. You can now set the maximum number of rows to be displayed on a search results page.
• Added "Submit to Dancedata" function album detail page.

Version 1.0.9

• Added the number of rows found on each of the search pages.

Version 1.0.8

Version 1.0.7

• Bug fix: Backup page was not remembering the backup location after the first time. For clarity, changed name of scddata.db file backup to scddata_{timestamp}.db, it was sdd_{timestamp}.db.

Version 1.0.6

• Minor changes to the "Bulk Add Albums" page, including moving the "Auto Add" button to the top of the page and providing the ability to choose which type of folders will be displayed in the list. This page now also remembers your position when clicking the "Add" button so that you do not need to scroll down after doing each add.
• Improved the logic that remembers positioning on a list or search results page when you click on an item and then return to the list/results page. Now positions the entry that you clicked on at the top of the page rather than near the end of the page as in previous versions.

Version 1.0.4

  • When shrinking the window to less than 800, the displayed area will be 800 and a horizontal scroll bar will appear to view the rest of the page.
  • If expanding to greater than 800, most elements will stretch to use the additional space. The number of tabs that will display is now dependent on the size of the window.
  • Added Refresh button to redisplay page after making window size changes.

Version 0.4.6

• Added a Medley Type (e.g. S16+R16) field to My PC Inventory Recordings (Required a database structure change).
  • Medley types will be copied from DanceData where applicable.
  • When upgrading from an earlier version, the medley types for any medleys that are in My PC Inventory Recordings and in DanceData will be populated from DanceData.
