I can't find that or make that work. Could you please explain?

Other than that, the new version is great!

Thank you so much!

Ok, some responses...

First of all - tagging/sub menus. Here's how to add tags to a sieve.
- Click on the Options button (next to Get Auctions)
- Look over to the right at the General Options panel
- There's a field called "Menu tags"
- Type whatever you want in there
- Click on the Sieves menu to see what effect it has

I'm very open to suggestions for how I can improve the UI to make this kind of functionality more apparent.

Walt:
- When you say the Watchlist and Price History scroll to the left you can still get back to them right? Are there some sort of arrows? (On windows it creates a second row of tabs if there are too many.)
- To change the memory allocated to AuctionSieve look here : http://auctionsieve.com/faq/#mac_memory
- Dunno about the View problem.

That makes perfect sense once I understood. This tool
just got even better! Great!

As to UI, how about adding tooltips that pop up if you hover
your cursor over menu items that may not be readily apparent
to the casual user?

walt - are the menus appearing up the top on the mac?

Nev, sorry for the delay in responding to your questions -- just saw them.

"walt - When you say the Watchlist and Price History scroll to the left you can still get back to them right? Are there some sort of arrows? (On windows it creates a second row of tabs if there are too many.)" Yes, I can still get them back and yes there are arrows with a drop down menu. It's just slow to have to click an arrow to go to the most used tabs and then click to to go back to review a search and then back click/scroll to the drop down, etc. - the back and forth make the search slower than desired Smile No, on the Mac it does NOT create a second row of tabs -- that would be nice!

"walt - are the menus appearing up the top on the mac?" Nev, yes the menus are at the top on my mac.

This is a great product -- keep the updates coming!!!
