New Toolbar

Calendar

  • Enhanced toolbar with buttons for the features you use most.  Toolbar along the top now let's you resize different areas so you can decide the look and feel.
  • Single click to quickly jump forward or backwards an entire year. 
  • Single click or use your mouse wheel  to scroll up and down through the Calendar a week at a time.  
  • Added previous year's totals to both the Monthly dropdown area and the YTD dropdown.
  • Added "Monthly Estimates" to monthly total area. After entering just a few runs for the month, RunLog will give you an estimate of what your weekly totals will be.
  • Print Weekly View - Added ability to print the weekly view of the calendar.  Just click on the Print icon from the toolbar when in weekly view.

User Fields

  • Added Calculated User-defined fields!.  Examples:
            Enter Run Time and Body Weight and RunLog will Calculate Calories.
            Enter Run Distance and Run Time and RunLog will Calculate Average Running Speed in mph or kph.
            Enter Cycling Distance and Cycling Time and RunLog will Calculate Average Cycling Speed.
            Enter Average and Max HR and RunLog will Calculate your Percent of Max HR.
  • Added ability to sum user-defined fields in a different unit than you enter them.  A good use of this would be if you enter swimming workouts in meters or yards and want your weekly/monthly totals to be in miles or kilometers.  Edit the user field and change the Totaling method to "Sum in new unit".  Note that the Graph, Year-at-glance, and Statistics windows use the new unit too!Added better functionality for keeping track of your "Total Workout Time".  This is primarily for users who track the time of multiple sports and want to keep track of their total workout time.  Now there is a setting for time fields whether you want to include it in with the Total Workout Time.  Also added "Total Workout Time" to the Graph, Year-at-a-glance, and Statistics windows.
  • Added UDF special field "Splits" that automatically returns your split times from the Splits window to your UDF splits field so that your split numbers can be displayed on the calendar.
  • Changed how List Value UDFs are managed.  List Value UDFs are your user-defined fields that you have RunLog keep a list of previous values for you to select from.  Now you can do the following with your List Value UDFs: 1) Edit your list of values for your List Value UDFs.  2) Decide if RunLog should automatically add new values you enter to your List Values.  3) Use List Value fields in special field calculation - for instance your body weight can be a List Value field and be used to calculate calories.  Note that any field you had as a special field - "Autolist Field" will no-longer show your previous values for this field.  You will need to go in and edit this field, click the "Edit List Values" button to setup your list values.  You can use the "Load from log data" button to build your list of values from what you currently have in this field in RunLog.

Run List 

  • Added a total line to the Run List window.
  • Added new "Field Chooser" and moveable columns to the Run List window.  You can now also save the size and position of where this window comes up each time with the "Save Settings" button.

Splits 

  • Added a split toggle field for MPH (or kph).  Just click on the Split time header to toggle between split time, total time, and split speed.
  • Save the colors you choose to display the split graph.

General 

  • You can now start up multiple instances of RunLog at the same time.  This is especially useful for those of you who want to compare different months on the Calendar at the same time.
  • Added "Create Desktop Shortcut" to the File menu to easily allow you to add a shortcut for the current file to the desktop.  If you have multiple runners using RunLog on the same computer, this is really useful because you can create an icon that always opens your specific file!
  • Goals - Added a "lifetime goals" section where you can enter goals or anything you want to keep around for ever.
  • Added "Restore..." function from the File menu to restore data from a backup.  This is useful for users who switch to a new PC and want to install their data on the new computer.  Any data file that has been backed up to a floppy disk can be restored to the local RunLog directory.

Run Entry

  • You can now enter times without colons or other delimiters.  If you enter 1 or 2 numbers only it is assumed to be minutes, otherwise it is assumed to be in the format HHMMSS starting from the right. For instance: 
        35 = 35 minutes, 0 seconds
        352 = 3 minutes, 52 seconds
        3523 = 35 minutes, 23 seconds
        35238 = 3 hours, 52 minutes, 38 seconds
  • Now show date of best and worst time and pace in the Run Statistics area of the Run Entry and Run List window.  Just hold the mouse over these fields to display the date(s) in a floating tooltip window.
  • Multiple Runs window now has configurable columns.  You can now resize and reorder the columns you want to display on the Multiple Runs window.  See the new "Field Chooser" button and use the "Save" button to save your settings.

Graph

  • Now you can select up to 4 fields on the graph!
  • Greatly improved quality of the graph printout! 
  • Now you can create a graph with "disjointed" timeframes.  What does this mean?  It means that you can display the same time period across multiple years.  This is useful for comparing your YTD totals across years or comparing how the current June compares to your previous Junes.  Choose "Custom Date Range" from the Date Range dropdown and see the "Disjoint Date Range" section.
  • Added Year-to-Date choice that shows your year-to-date totals for each year.  You can use the "disjointed" feature mentioned above to just show YTD for any years you choose.
