  • Apple updates iWork apps for Mac & iOS with new shape libraries, other enhancements

    About damn time.

    I almost didn't click through from my RSS feed reader because the summary made this look like nothing.  Who cares about the shape library?  The important part is the dribbling reluctuant return of some of ht Pages '09 features.

    I'm glad to see the linked text boxes.  I just tried to use one the other day and has a bit of a FFS moment, because I couldn't believe they hadn't returned it yet.

    Does anyone know what other major features we are still missing?  Rich content in table cells?  I see the other comments here about facing pages.  It shouldn't take 8 years still not to reach parity.  Pages 09 itself still hasn't quick managed all the features of AppleWorks when it replaced it, which was funny, because AppleWorks/ClarisWorks never managed to achieve all the features of MacWrite II.  I'm damn sure that there were MacWrite II features that have still not made it back.

    On the other side of the fence, MS Word can still load documents from over 20 years ago.  To the cloud.

  • Apple's Notes for Mac to support Evernote file imports in OS X 10.11.4

    Yeah I'm still waiting for them to let me import my Stickies.

    Now they're just taunting me... an "Import Notes..." option that won't do anything useful.
