      • Lost updates

        I recently lost important updates to our wireframes. Generally mockingbird has worked well (although it hangs once in a while -- but data is generally not lost), but it looks like you lost our recent updates and installed an old version. Would prefer to find out about this with an email or something rather than have to discover it. Now I need to go through about 50+ wireframes to see what is missing.

            • autosave made optional

              How about making the Autosave feature optional, or customizable? What just happenned to me was that all my layout (all widgets) disappeared without any apparent reason, autosaved the next instant, and left no way of Undoing - all gone. :-)

                  • Deleting a previously edited page does not produce delete confirmation dialog

                    The Mockingbird documentation says that if I delete a page that is brand new with nothing on it, that page goes "poof" and disappears instantly. If, however, the page has been edited previously and has stuff on it, Mockingbird is supposed to present a delete confirmation dialog. I'm here to say that this is not happening for me, and I just lost a critical page after pressing the delete key when I thought I had an object selected on that page (but clearly did not have an object selected). As I was doing a simple page to every single page… more

                    • Vertical link list: blank lines oddity when changing font size by inputting a number

                      Vertical link list accepts blank lines. This is great! It lets you arrange links into portions and you don't need to create multiple link lists!

                      But if you change the font size of the list, the blank lines may disappear or grow!

                      Steps to reproduce:

                      1) Create a vertical link list with say 12 lines, three of them blank, dividing the list into four parts.

                      2) Use your mouse to resize the list. Notice that blank lines are maintained all right and the font size number changes according to list's size.

                      3) Resize the list back so that font size… more

                      • Collaborator's pane

                        After being given view / edit permissions to the correct projects, users with newly granted accounts are not seeing a "Collaborators Pane" when two or more people are logged in at the same. In an attempt to test this, when a single user had two browsers w/ Mockingbird running in each browser and the same project open in both, they still did not see a Collaborators Pane (normally I would see "You" and "My Name"). I have checked their access to projects and everything is correct. Any help you have would be appreciated.

                        • Fails to save project created prior to registration

                          I started using Mockingbird before creating my account. I decided to use the software and hit "share" to save the project (later tried with "Save" as well). I was prompted to name the project and enter my registration details. I received an email confirming my registration and I clicked through the link as required. I was then returned to my mockup. I then tried again:

                          1. I hit "Save" again.
                          2. I name the project.

                                    • Cannot select all text in Chrome

                                      Although it works fine at first, after a few minutes I lose the ability to select all the text in any text entry field. Can only position the cursor and use the backspace or delete key

                                      • Saving with invalid character

                                        If you name a page with this character '|', when you export the project, the exporter ignores that file.

                                        Doesn't bother me, just thought it might be a bug!

                                        • Delete + Undo put widget on top level

                                          If you delete a widget and recover it back via Undo command it will be placed at top level so you need to re-arrange it again for proper level. Also one more question: is it correct behaviour - software allow deleting for locked widgets? I think it should ask before deleting in that case.

                                          • When clicking

                                            This is not an idea but a BUG. When i duplicate a page, rename it and then go to preview the name of the page in the dropdown remains the same. After reloading however the name appears correct.
