Picture Frame Pricing Programs

This blog is about developing the "Wessex Pricing Programs", with in-depth consideration of why features work as they do, as well as the history & future development. Mostly the blog will be about "Wessex Professional" (WPP4) the most sophisticated of the four programs. I am by profession a bespoke picture framer (for the last 30 + years). But I have been interested in programming since Sinclair Spectrum days and have become a passable programmer in Visual Basic.

Major Upgrade for the Pricing App

A major new upgrade to The Framers Pricing App has been released.

The internal file structure has been completely rewritten which means that -

You can now have as many items in the Mount, Glass and Sundries lists as you like (previously only 5 items)
Each item can now have its own fixed cost (labour cost or cutting charge), rather than one cost to cover all items.
You can choose as many Sundry items to add to the overall cost as needed (previously only 1)

This makes the App far more versatile.

I've also brought the App upto date to comply with the new Google Play security requirements (coming into force later this year) and to work with the latest Android versions.
