I realize this is partly-complete software. As a S/W dev myself, a couple of very simple suggestions:
- Giving new users a good experience is incredibly valuable for you... you only get one chance to make a first impression.
The following are a VERY basics items that would greatly reduce aggravation:
1) In the app, create a link to a help page that currently says something like "Help - To Be Done" and have the link also marked up so users know it is not yet done. (Otherwise it's easy to assume I missed something, and waste time looking for the nonexistent documentation.)
2) Please please:
a) Choose a reasonable default starting folder for input and output. Most likely:
- Input: My Documents or My Pictures
- Output: Same as Input
b) Please remember the user's selected folder(s) for next time!
Thank you soooo much,
Pete
For noobs: please remember input/output folders!
