BUGS
====
Please be aware of the following 2 bugs. We intend to fix both of these bugs in the next release. If you are aware of any other bugs, please email us at support@perfecttableplan.com.
Drag and drop doesn't work when plan file location includes a non-ASCII or hash (#) character
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
If you save a plan file with a location that includes a hash (#) character or a character that is not part of the standard ASCII set you may not be able to perform drag and drop operations for that plan (e.g. dragging guests to seats). NB/ Pretty much everything on your keyboard is an ASCII character.
Applies to:
All versions of PerfectTablePlan up to 2.0.1 for Windows and Macintosh.
Workaround:
Don't use hash and non-ASCII characters. For example save:
c:\•folder•\plan#1.tp
as:
c:\folder\plan_1.tp
Comment:
Our thanks to Mike B for helping us track this down.
'File'|'Open recent' doesn't prompt for unsaved changes
-------------------------------------------------------
Description:
When you select 'File'|'Open' you will be prompted to save any unsaved changes to the current plan. This is not the case for 'File'|'Open recent'.
Applies to:
All versions of PerfectTablePlan up to 2.0.1 for Windows and Macintosh.
Workaround:
Remember to save your changes before selecting 'File'|'Open recent' or use 'File'|'Open' instead.
MULTIPLE USER ACCESS
====================
Currently we don't have file locking in PerfectTablePlan. This means that 2 users with the same plan file open via a shared drive can overwrite each other's changes. We are investigating adding file locking to prevent this occurring.
VERSION 2.1
===========
We are currently working on PerfectTablePlan v2.1 . As well as the bug fixes and file locking, as mentioned above, we also intend to add a few of the most frequently requested enhancements.
TRAINING MOVIE
==============
If you would like a more in-depth understanding of PerfectTablePlan, but don't have the time or inclination to read the extensive documentation, please watch our 15-minute online movie:

You will need the 'flash' multi-media plug-in installed in your browser. Most people already have this.
