andersonps Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 When is FusionPro 8 coming out? Not having Lion support is a problem with iCloud coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Hi Lauren, I saw a different thread from about a month ago where you noted that the plugin wouldn't work with CS5.5.1 version. Will this new 7.2k version work for 5.5.1? thanks, kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 When is FusionPro 8 coming out? Not having Lion support is a problem with iCloud coming out. We don't have a release date yet, but we're targeting November. Sorry for the inconvenience. Keeping up with Apple is challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadrian Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 So the year has ended...when might we expect a newer version of FP for Lion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 So the year has ended...when might we expect a newer version of FP for Lion? FusionPro 8.0 is now scheduled for release in early February. We had some unexpected issues at the end of the year and decided not to rush out a release during the holidays. Apologies for the delay.

Hadrian Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 ...and early February has now come and gone. Any word? I think they were referring to the other February....in 2013. Although i sympathize with the PTI developers....i really don't....its a pain having to use two systems. Maybe they can throw in better documentation while we wait with better object library referencing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 ...and early February has now come and gone. Any word? Sorry about that. We're still working on a few lingering issues. Adding support for Lion, running all native on Intel, required significant changes to our Mac architecture, and corresponding Windows changes as well, and we need to ensure composition parity with 7.2. We won't release it until it's rock-solid. I can't give you an exact release date, but it's close. Please bear with us a little longer. This release will be worth it. Thanks!

RobW Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Huh, we just purchased all new Macs that shipped with Lion and I find out today I can't even run FusionPro now. *sigh* Should I prepare to tell my Boss(es) that we'll have to shell out for an upgrade to FP 8.0 whenever it releases, or is there any "grandfather" clause for recent purchasers of 7.2? Thanks~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
