Well, I don't mind if things take a turn to another valid discussion, but I do hope my reporting of important bugs doesn't get lost in the sauce
Thus, here is my original listing:
Discovered 2 bugs, the first serious, the second less so...
1) Text Annotations - Annotations with the text tool produce random formatting errors. Specific examples: choosing Bold or Italic sometimes produce the selected result but often doesn't. Sometimes the text as it appears "live" in the .pdf while typing in the input box shows differently than the selected formatting options. I have to go back after saving and redo the result - often more than once - before I'm able to achieve the formatting I'd actually chosen. Additionally, using the "<" and ">" symbols to select the position of the cursor don't result in moving the cursor to the desired position but in turning the page forward or backward. Not the intention, of course. I believe there are more issues with text annotations... perhaps it would be good to examine this specific area carefully for interface probs?
2) Export - A minor bug, me thinks, maybe just on this box?
When exporting a file to Dropbox via the Share menu, the Export in Progress notification windows appears while the transfer is taking place (as it should) but ALWAYS remains at "0% complete" until the window closes (the export having completed). Again, not a disaster, but it would be good if the progress indication was accurate. Now, there's no way of knowing if the export is actually taking place or how much remains to be done.

Maybe we should switch that discussion elsewhere?
@itsme: I mean by emulation process the fact of having to use an emulator to run Android over Windows...
It takes forever to load, not as good and stable as a real native operating system, is expensive and has issues with some hardware of my laptop.
I did that in the first place because I wanted to use MobileSheets Pro with my convertible laptop that is a Windows machine, but that was before Mike released it on Windows Store.
I actually have no intention to run both versions even if I have two licences, except if I have stability problems (but Mike ALWAYS resolved the problems)
I see no interest in using Companions since I can manage everything from the app itself directly in Windows!
But thanks for the offer.
