ECTtracker - New About window

New "About" window

When launching a non-activated copy of EyeComTec programs (ECTcamera, ECTtracker, ECTkeyboard, ECTmouse, ECTlistener and ECTmorse), the user will see the About window, which contains additional blocks of information (see fig. 21).

On the image above, various information blocks are marked with numbers:

The appearance of the About window is different for paid commercial programs (Pro version) and free versions for non-commercial use (see fig. 22).

The user will see the main window of the program after pressing the OK button and closing the About window in a program with the free type of the license. The non-activated version of the program with a commercial license will not be launched until the user purchases (or prolongs if the license expired) a license and creates a new key file in the program's folder.

All the programs with free licenses are intended for people with a real physical need for assistive technologies from the EyeComTec Company. The registration process is not compulsory in such cases, but the company kindly recommends that our customers do register in order to gain the full benefits e.g. updates and customer support. Free versions of our software products can also be used by non-commercial and charitable organizations. These organizations must register for a licence.

Registration on the company's website and the following activation of the program are compulsory for Pro versions of software.

After completing the activation, the About window will not be shown during every launch of the program. The user can open it by using the About menu item, or by pressing the F1 hot key (see fig. 23). There is sometimes a short delay when opening the About window, as every time it is opened, the program will check for updates on the EyeComTec website.
