Thanks for Pleco 2; I must tell that after a month of using it, it is on all points better than Pleco01
Just one thing which I definitely miss from the V01: the searchbar. Pleco01 has a very smart Search toolbar, which buttons change automatically to what you look at. For instance:
- when you look at a word on Pleco01, the up or down arrays on the searchbar appear accordingly to the existence (or non-existence) of a following word in the list. Let's take 电脑 on the ABC as an example: on the word view (by clicking on 表 button) you only have a down array on the searchbar (normal as it is the first word on the "电脑 list"); by clicking on this array you go down to the second word "电脑病毒" for which we now have 2 arrays on the searchbar; and we then keep these 2 arrays until the last word of the list (电脑作业软件) for which there is then only one array up. This feature is quite helpfull when looking on a serie of words (especially on ABC)
- on the words list view (click again on 表 button), the arrays disappear from the search bar (indeed we do not need them anymore, which gives space) and the 果 and 典 buttons appear. How smart!
On Pleco 02 as I can see, your intention was to enhanced the search bar by making it changeable for the user. Trouble is that you cannot make it as smart as it was before. So my request is: could we have an option to get the previous Searchhbar back ?
Thanks again for this new software. I must tell that I love the Guifan dictionary
