Just uploaded a new major version of Termites the seating chart software.

New benefits:

• Option to automagically group students by their ability
• Toggle which components to use when placing students
• Significantly faster
• Improved usability
• Lots of bug fixes

As a gift to everyone who purchased licences for the last version (1.x) there is no need to buy a new licence for version 2; your old licence code will work just fine.

For those of you considering if Termites is right for you, the trial period has been increased to 14 days. Happy to offer a 10% discount to anyone who is referred by a current customer - just shoot me an email first. It's about the same price as a good book.

So now go download and get those classes under control!

A rapid release after version 1.9.3 to fix a bug.

• Option to rotate the room so front is at the bottom
• New introduction help screen
• New menus for Options and Purchasing
• Improved line of sight algorithm
• New pleasing sound when seating chart is generated
• Improved look & feel
• Improved piracy checker
• Eight bug fixes

Big thanks to all the users who contributed ideas for changes over March, happy to say that most made it into this release. Also a big thank you to all the beta testers!

Basically you would be an April fool not to download or upgrade :)

Just uploaded a new version of Termites. Fixes a few bugs reported over the last couple of weeks. Even if you are having no trouble it is still worth an upgrading to the new version.

Just a quick little release which fixes a bug where the unlock screen wasn't displaying correctly on some computers (thanks Russel).

Also updated the art work to the fresh new design used on the website. Here is the cute mascot designed by our amazing designer, my magnificent wife, Salihan.

If you have Termites installed then it should tell you an update is available every time it starts up.

If you don't have it installed then why not!? Go to http://termitesapp.com/download and download the greatest software in the world for creating classroom seating charts.

Have just uploaded a new version of Termites; v1.9.0.

I'm very happy because it adds two features I've been wanting to get in for a long time!

First feature highlights student relationships so you SEE how they are spread around the room at a glance. Just hover your mouse over a student on the classroom plan view and good relationship will be highlighted in shades of green, and bad relationships in shades of red.

Second feature makes it easier for new users to get a feel for the software. There is a new item on the Help menu to generate fake students with random relationships, and a fairly standard looking classroom plan. Now a new user just has to click that, then go to the plan view and click the Generate button to see the magic happen.

Also fixed a couple more bugs.

Just download the new version and install right over top of the old one on your computer, should be no dramas.

Released new versions of Termites into the wild yesterday.

Only one visible change; will now automagically check for new updates when the software starts up. Don't want you to miss out on any new features!

Fixed a few bugs behind the scenes and continued to clean up the code preparing for the big version 2 changes.

The trial process has also been tweaked slightly. Termites is now fully functional for one week. After that the file access and printing features are disabled. Previously there was no fully functional period. I hope this allows you to evaluate the software more thoroughly.
