I heard that the 7/31 was the latest release, the announcement was just running behind.

Stardock, any chance of a what's new highlight of the docs?
Reply #8 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Nobody looked at the titlepage of the docs for dates.
Reply #9 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Whatever the titlepage says, the documentation contains all the new features by the looks of it.
I second a what's new or better yet, a history section so we can see what was added when.

For this release I belive these are the new additions:

In Object namespace:
* Object.SetScript(name)
* Object.Cursor

In System namespace:
* System.DownloadFile(remoteUrl, localPath, bAsync)
* System.SendRequest(remoteUrl, postParams, bAsync)
* System.SimpleWrite(path, content, param)
* System.SimpleRead(path, param)

In DesktopX namespace:
* DesktopX.Exit(params)
* DesktopX.MsgBox(msg, flags, title, owner)

I got my Pro version listed as 3.2 on SDC.
Reply #14 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Yes but SDC is still different to standalone setup.

Okay. Didn't want to post the link here.
Reply #21 from WinCustomize Forums Top
I have confirmed that that link you received in the email is still to the 3.1 release. The mail should be updated.

Have you tried using SDC to update?
Reply #22 from WinCustomize Forums Top
SD Support should be contacting you Carl.
