When GEDitCOM II came out my comment on another review site was “the best just got a whole lot better”. I checked back on the others from time to time and never saw anything to make me change. When I started working on our family tree I tried most of the genealogy programs available for the Mac but it didn’t take a lot of thought to settle on GEDitCOM.
Various minor improvements, including improvements in provided browser styles and extensions.All GEDitCOM II drag and drop features were updated to current methods (which may have fixed drag and drop issues seen in some recent MacOS versions). MacOS has revised the way applications should implement drag and drop features.A work around was found that now appears to get around that bug. High Sierra has some bugs in split pane windows (such as some window with notes in one pane and rest of the record in another pane).If GEDitCOM II fails to read a GEDCOM file claimed to have UTF8 encoding (because it has an encoding error), it now tries alternate reading methods and displays message that extra methods were tried.The POIs now work (but are no longer customizable by users). Icons for points of interest on maps are now stored on, becuase High Sierra refuses to load locally stored icons in Google maps.A scripting property lets an extension determine which mapping method the user has selected.Extensions that create maps will create them using the selected mapping service.In addition, you now have a choice of displaying maps using Google Maps or OpenLayers (a public domain mapping service). They have been rewritten and are now working again. High Sierra broke web views used to display maps.
GEDITCOM FOR MAC UPDATE
This update fixes issues found in High Sierra included updating code to eliminate all "deprecated" methods (which was challenging process due to rather sparse state of current Apple developer documentation).
GEDITCOM FOR MAC FREE
It will be significantly discounted for current GEDitCOM users (with a few free copies for those who have been providing input during development). GEDitCOM II, as a new application, will not be a free update of GEDitCOM. The installation will replace any prior installed beta versions of GEDitCOM II (if you have it in your main "Applications" folder) it will not affect the original GEDitCOM application (if you have that on your computer). Users of GEDitCOM, should find GEDitCOM II easy to use. It will retain the philosophy of GEDitCOM to be a customizable genealogy application for editing and viewing GEDCOM genealogy files. It will greatly exceed user-interface features of GEDitCOM. GEDitCOM II is a rewritten version of GEDitCOM using Apple's Cocoa environment. GEDitCOM II is a complete rewrite of the former GEDitCOM application.
GEDITCOM FOR MAC FOR MAC
GEDitCOM II is a new genealogy application for OS X that sets the standard for Mac ease-of-use editing of genealogy files, for customization of the user experience, and for power features allowing the greatest access to your genealogical data.
