Directory Opus 11 Released!

Josh:
WOW!!! A whole three month period for "free upgrades". Gee, I should just whip out my wallet and plop down another 45 dollars into a product I have already invested 80 bucks into just shy of a year ago. </sarcasm>

Well, the new major versions aren't released that often, and there are alot of updates (and beta's) inbetween.

Dec 2007 I bought DO 9 (it was AUD 64 at the time, pro/light didn't exist).
Apr 2011 I upgraded to DO 10 (pro/light was introduced in the later years, everyone that had already purchased got Pro).
Mar 2014 I upgraded to DO 11 Pro.

Yes, I understand that major releases do not occur often. That said, the typical period of upgrades between major revisions in the software industry is within the last year. A whopping three months for a free upgrade to V11 leaves me with a very sour taste in my mouth given that I was not privy to many of those "updates" since DO10 was put out.

yes, that's a very good point myarmor,
but:
the few months (as Josh describes) still just does not lead to good feelings that one likes to have about one of their favourite software.

Spoiler I removed the rest of this post - I was bitching about something related to upgrade pricing which appears to be untrue.

tomos:
... well, can I finally shrinken the giant DO toolbars in v11?

 :huh: ?!
Toolbars are totally customisable, and have been since at least version 8

or were you using the beta and unable to customise the toolbars in that?

Tuxman:
I never saw a screenshot without giant "menu" toolbars...  :huh:

tomos:
^here's my current setup in v.10 with the panels 'spliced' out.

I could remove icons from buttons to reduce height more, but dont think it's worth it
