BCD announces the release of Presto 5.1, their rapid green screen web enablement and modernization tool.
This interim release includes new features that allow you to make your web-enabled screens look and behave even more like modern web pages. For example, you can now optionally replace menu numbers with images. By default, Presto automatically makes menus clickable but this enhancement allows you to make your Presto menus look even less like green screen menus. You can also override the default green screen field tabbing order with a flow that is more natural to a web page.
The Visual Editor now includes a keyboard shortcut that enables you to simultaneously align several elements to the same margin in any direction. This makes it quicker to give screen elements a uniform look.
Presto’s mobile support continues to advance. This version includes improvements to how pages are rendered in tablets and smartphones. BCD has updated the header bar and removed containers to give Presto’s new skins, which were introduced in a version 5.0, a more mobile look and feel.
