Finally, after few months of development and testing and debugging, it's over :) Well, over for now. Submitted the app to Apple for approval. Much more complicated process compared to Android... Hopefully approval will not be an issue, but still it'll take two weeks or more...

Did some graphics stuff, fixed few issues with interface found during my own testing on the iphone and changed few small things to make app more convenient, polished. It's not like I can put updates like on Android, every day if I want to. 2 weeks is approval period from the apple. So, at best things are delayed by that much. Dunno why am I even doing all this...

Stupid power supply cord broke on my mac book, which is less than 1.5 years old. Happened on Sunday, which was the day I planned to submit the app to Apple for their "blassing". Got a new one today, but considering that I've lost all Sunday to work on the app, and during the weekdays I don't have all day free to work on the app, I guess it'll be this weekend. All coding is completed. Testing to catch bugs if any. Reworking the help file. Pretty much same functionality as in Android app, minus search integration which Apple won't allow.

Fixed incorrect notes for some proprietary alloy detail view.

All the major features are completed except database synchronization, which I hope will be done tomorrow. Few minor things like small graphics, help file etc and then I can submit the app to their holiness, apple appstore for approval...

Fixed very long numbers in the graph builder when molar percentage mode was selected. Now all the values are correctly rounded to two decimal digits.

Added bunch of PX, CSN, SIS alloy names. Revised AFNOR, GOST and BS standards, set correct composition flags and records. Approaching 3800 names :) And still working on the damn iphone steel chart app. That's about 80% done.

Revised all DIN and W-Nr standard specifications and set their correct statuses in respective reference groups. That should eliminate bunch of false messages about generated compositions, plus it allows for much better and precise calculations of compositions for other, proprietary alloys from Germany.

Added new article with overview of the technologies used in modern metallurgy. At least the processes mentioned or referenced in the knife steel chart. Stil not very clear what are the fine differences between CPM, PM, MM processes, because their respective descriptions as published by companies are pretty much identical. Whatever differences I've doug up about PM and MM processes are in the article. I'll continue the research.
