New MacTips Widget Available–Many New Features!

I’m pleased to announce a new version of the MacTips Widget is available: Download v2.1.

There are some big changes in this version, like:

Smaller Logo and Ability for Widget to Get Much Smaller

Plus you can remove the search bar and post dates. Expect more options here in the future.

Show Only Titles

In addition to shortening articles, you can also show only titles by moving the article length slider (on the back) to zero. This is demonstrated below:

New MacTech Tab

We’ve also added a new MacTech tab for some great Mac news. Also note, using the search on the MacTech tab will also take you to the MacTech’s search engine.

New Back Design

The back has been spruced up a little. and now uses a much smaller image (4KB vs 100KB).

Also added the show search field and show post date fields for customizing the Widget a little more.

Other Small Features

You can scroll with:

• Up/Down Arrow Keys
• Home / End Keys
• Page Up / Down Keys

I will work on more keyboard accessibility issues in the future.

A couple of other smaller bugs were squished.

Let me know if you have any issues by using the contact information on the back of the widget.

I’d love to hear any and all feature suggestions. Please send me an e-mail with ideas using the info on the back of the widget.

Enjoy!
