Future Plans
Virtual Belfry is in active development. While version 3.7b is a complex program with many features, more are planned.
Here are a few of the features that are planned for later versions:
- Import and export of saved touches in Lowndes format (it was hoped to include this in 3.6, but a decision was made to avoid further delays to the release date given the time already taken to develop the algorithm for analysing real ringing).
- An option on the History window to replace the graph on the right with output of saved details for the current touch.
- Improving the way the files of methods and compositions are handled so that updates to the "factory" lists can be released more easily without upsetting entries that have been added locally.
- Making the method, exercise and call-change lists sizeable.
