Major National Retailer uses My-T-Soft® to bridge user interface from Windows to Linux During the transition from Industrial PCs to Touchscreen based systems, many customers used My-T-Soft Build-A-Board to layout panels that matched membrane panels, so the change-over was as seamless as possible. This reduced operator training time, and made new systems match the systems being replaced. Now that organizations are looking at Android & Linux based solutions, what's old is new again. If the new system looks and operates like the existing system, the actual users / operators will happily & readily accept the new technology roll-out. If everything operates the same way (or there are only minor changes and/or actual improvements), there essentially is no new training time required. In large scale roll-outs, and for ease of transition, these aspects are highly desirable.
One of our customers is now in this transition to a Linux based system, and are able to quickly & easily move over their custom boards & layouts from the existing Windows system to the new Linux targets. With the cross-platform capabilities of the My-T-Soft on-screen keyboards and the different OS targets available via Build-A-Board custom layouts, this is one item that can be checked off the list - just continue to use My-T-Soft!

IMG is pleased to announce that My-T-Soft® 1.90 Release 5 is now available The My-T-Soft® 1.90 Release 5 adds a few new important features, addresses the Windows 11 roll-out, as well as providing a maintenance release. The IMG license manager includes support for Build-A-Board.com Account based licenses and now provides a mechanism to enter license credentials prior to license authentication, which creates additional license flexibility when deploying My-T-Soft on Windows platforms. Utilizing an ACCOUNT.TXT file, license credentials can be added to a system without the need for human interaction. With the AUTOLICENSE option, a license can be retrieved from the account using the embedded license credentials, so a system can be licensed without the need for human interaction. This provides a seamless way to deploy or configure a system via script, where installation and licensing can be performed automatically, resulting in a clean and easy way to roll out multiple systems.
In addition to the new features, all known issues have been addressed as part of this maintenance update For those new to My-T-Soft, and for a full breakdown of all the details of the 1.90 release, please see the original notes from the original release: IMG is pleased to announce that My-T-Soft® 1.90 is now available
In addition to the software release, the IMG Developer's Kit 1.90 is now available publicly for the first time. This includes various updates, and 64-bit builds with code-signed executables of the critical Developer Kit utilities. While previously available to IMG customers, this is now publicly available in the Developer's Corner. For developers and integrators, it provides a wealth of possible solutions to the user interface needs of sophisticated systems. By integrating a flexible on-screen keyboard solution (driven by an application's (or user's) needs), a comprehensive, secure user interface can be built.
