It's been about a month since the last version of Papyrus was released, and here we are today announcing a new Papyrus version update, Papyrus version 1.3
Before we will go through all the new stuff we added in this version, here is some valuable information for all our new users who joined us in the past few days:
We usually release small releases every week, each version with some new features and fixes if needed. These files can be download from our public URLs (usually will be posted with the post about the new version - like this) and registered users - who have their registration key, can just install the new version over
the last and enjoy the new features we add, the registration key will follow with you to the new version.
As a registered user, it is not a must to follow each small release we do, this is your decision. Users can always visit our site every month (or more), download the latest version, install it and enjoy the new features we added . New versions are also posted on Handango, but this usually will be a few hours after the release until we will get the initial feedback from our forum members which are the "experienced users" of Papyrus - but again, you can download the files from Handango or from here - it doesn't matter as long as you have your registration key.

What's new in Papyrus for S60 1.3
New and improved Tasks view
The biggest update in this release is the new and improved Tasks view which can now sort in various ways and up to 2 additional sub-sorts.
In addition, I worked on various selection issues and crashses on the List view and Tasks view regarding deleting Tasks and completing/activating them, which would cause crashes for some users. This should now work properly.
New item - "Reminder"
This is something that I wanted personally for a long time.
You know how when you cook something, for instance hard boiled eggs - and you need a timer for that?
Well now you can set a timer VERY easily from within Papyrus.
You don't need to know what time it currently is and start calculating when to remove the eggs off of the flame.
Simply enter the amount of minutes you want the phone to remind you in - and voilla
You can use this of course for anything you'd like - not just cooking. So I hope you will enjoy this new addition.
New single line Daily view
Another feature that a lot of users asked for was the ability to make more space on the Daily view.
I've done that by adding an option under "Daily Settings-->Multiline" to set the view to a single-lined mode as shown in the screenshot:
Ability to create birthdays from within Papyrus
Not only can you now import birthdays from your Nokia contacts into the calendar as *special* anniversaries. But you can also create birthdays from within Papyrus. Just create a new Anniversary and set the line "Is Birthday?" to "Yes". Birthdays in Papyrus show the age of the person on all views and are another nice addition over the default Nokia calendar.
Fullscreen support for individual views
Many users who have phones with a screen resolution of 176x208 (like the N70) and 352x416 (like the N80) complained that the new Symbian-native top/bottom menu bars take up too much space. So to handle that, you can now choose which views you want to show up as fullscreen. This option can be found under "Settings->General->Fullscreen on". Here is a before and after shot:
New Settings and About dialogs
Papyrus finally received a face lift to its' Settings and About dialogs. You can now also register directly from the About dialog which can be found under "Settings->Options->About"
E90 Support
This is something that I'm very proud of. Everyone loves Nokia's new E90 which I think is just great! But they now can even enjoy it more with support from Papyrus
I must add that this is just an initial support to put E90 users on par with the rest of the S60 Papyrus userbase. We will focus on implementing cool new E90-specific features in the upcoming releases so keep your eye out for that

(thanks!)Plans for the near future
During the next couple of weeks I will focus on fixing various recurrence issues as well as improve the installation of Papyrus to install itself to a *sand-boxed* location on the device. This is mainly something for OS 9.x devices. In addition, I will try and solve the few remaining issues such as the spaces between the lines on the "New/Edit Item" dialog etc...
