Saptamana trecuta v-am spus ca multi utilizatori de Mac-uri au inceput sa se planga din cauza faptului ca in versiunile pentru OS X ale aplicatiilor Pages, Numbers si Keynote lipsesc multe functii extrem de utile. Diverse teorii au fost formulate pe baza eliminarii lor de catre compania Apple, iar in cursul acestei seri cei din Cupertino au afirmat ca o parte dintre ele vor fi reintroduse in versiuni viitoare ale aplicatiilor. Compania explica faptul ca toate aplicatiile au fost refacute de la zero pentru a oferi aceeasi experienta pe iOS 7, OS X Mavericks si iCloud, iar din aceasta cauza unele functii ale versiunilor vechi nu sunt disponibile in cadrul lansarii initiale ale noilor aplicatii.
The new iWork applications—Pages, Numbers, and Keynote—were released for Mac on October 22nd. These applications were rewritten from the ground up to be fully 64-bit and to support a unified file format between OS X and iOS 7 versions, as well as iWork for iCloud beta. These apps feature an all-new design with an intelligent format panel and many new features such as easy ways to share documents, Apple-designed styles for objects, interactive charts, new templates, and new animations in Keynote.
In ciuda acestui inconvenient, compania Apple are in plan reintroducerea unei parti a acestor functii in viitoarele versiuni ale aplicatiilor, toate urmand a fi implementate in toate cele 3 platforme. Compania listeaza, dupa cum puteti vedea mai jos, functiile pe care intentioneaza sa le implementeze in aplicatiile sale in perioada urmatoarelor 6 luni de zile, iar pana atunci le recomanda utilizatorilor nemultumiti sa utilizeze in continuare versiunea veche a iWork pentru OS X.
In rewriting these applications, some features from iWork ’09 were not available for the initial release. We plan to reintroduce some of these features in the next few releases and will continue to add brand new features on an ongoing basis. In the meanwhile, you can continue to use these features by accessing the previous versions of the iWork applications which remain installed on your Mac. The previous versions can be found in Applications > iWork ’09.
Sunt sigur ca foarte multa lume va fi in continuare nemultumita de aceasta explicatie, insa realitatea este ca nimeni nu poate face altceva decat sa astepte. Toate cele 6 aplicatii iWork pentru OS X/iOS sunt disponibile gratuit pentru iDevice/Mac-urile activate dupa 1 septembrie/1 octombrie, restul celor interesati fiind nevoiti sa achizitioneze aplicatiile din App Store/Mac App Store.
