I tried again with two UR databases, in order to check if it was possible, as wikipedia claims, to switch between them not only with alt-tab, but with control-tab, too. Not even that is possible, so we can safely delete UR from this list! Again, it’s always possible to open two UR databases side by side, in two complete frames, and then switch around as you’d switch around between an outliner and Word, for example.
Perhaps another word re MyInfo, where users await the editability of the second content pane, which would make that pane functional, at last: Years ago, MyInfo was very buggy, and I often encountered “list out of bounds” error messages. Now in their forum, from summer 2013 (mature version 6), “list out of bounds” is mentioned, and the introduction of version 6 came with a plethora of new, unnecessary bugs (but otherwise was a big advantage over version 5). This program is not bad, but it seems its coding standards are not really professional, but too “manual”, too “trial and error”, too “do something here, do something there”, and it’s not impossible to loose data with it (I did, and it’s mentioned in the forum, lately). In direct comparison, UR is rock-stable, so it’s a real pity UR isn’t under (what I would call) active development anymore.
Again, what about myBase? Some users here have said it’s many good ideas, poorly executed. Perhaps they put some work into that execution, in the meanwhile, to make it better? (Version 6 came out with bugs, too, if I remember well…)
