OK... I'm listening.
Visit this post to download and test Hoster 5.07 Beta 1.
There are some problems with the restored Search dialog "open files icon" not working right (it was fixed today). This will allow you to HIDE the Singers dialog, and when you close the Search dialog your selection of this icon is retained. One click and it will SHOW the Singers dialog again, one click to HIDE it, etc.
Also, the minimizing and maximizing of the Search and Singers dialogs aren't right, but were fixed today.
We are trying to meet your needs. It would be very complex to reverse back to separate Search and Singers buttons as the Add button, Tempo & Key change controls and "Skip" check box are all in the Search dialog, no longer in the Singers dialog. We did a MAJOR integration of these screens.
We also have done a TOTAL rewrite of the Database accessing code to speed it up MANY times what it was in 5.05 and prior. This too would be affected.
So, download it and test. You can install this Beta version on your show computer and retain you current Hoster icon also. Read the instructions in the thread.
Please help us make 5.07 work for you. Returning to 5.05's separate buttons is not an option.
