KeyCue 7.5 can omit shortcuts and offers improved installer - Published on 04/21/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ergonis Software today releases KeyCue 7.5, an improved version of the company's popular keyboard shortcut cheat sheet. With a simple keystroke or click, KeyCue displays a table with all available keyboard shortcuts, system-wide hotkeys, and more. Version 7.5 allows you to omit keyboard shortcuts from the shortcut table. This is particularly useful for shortcuts that you know already. The new version also highly improves the convenience of getting informed about and installing new versions.

Perg, Austria - Ergonis Software today released KeyCue 7.5, an improved version of the company's popular keyboard shortcut cheat sheet. KeyCue is a handy tool for learning and remembering keyboard shortcuts. With a simple keystroke or click, KeyCue displays a table with all available keyboard shortcuts, system-wide hotkeys, as well as key combinations for triggering macros in Keyboard Maestro, QuicKeys and iKey.

KeyCue 7.5 allows you to omit keyboard shortcuts from the shortcut table. This is particularly useful for shortcuts that you know already. It reduces the size of the shortcut table, helps to find other shortcuts faster, and thus increases your learning speed. You can omit shortcuts for specific applications or system-wide for all applications.

The new version also highly improves the convenience of getting informed about and installing new versions. When a new version is available, you can now check the new features and enhancements before downloading the new version. The built-in installer has been adapted to new functions and appearance of Yosemite and helps with purchasing and updating licenses when the current license does not cover the new version.

KeyCue 7.5 adds many further improvements and enhancements that improve overall stability and compatibility with Yosemite and third-party applications. Visit Ergonis Software's website to learn more about the changes in this release and to download and try the new version.

The productivity paradox of keyboard shortcuts is that shortcuts were designed to increase productivity. However, productivity actually decreases when applications provide large numbers of shortcuts, in particular when the shortcuts are defined inconsistently across applications. KeyCue's elegantly simple solution is to display an instant overview of currently available keyboard shortcuts - application-specific menu shortcuts as well as system-wide hotkeys and user-defined shortcut descriptions. Over time, KeyCue users will automatically remember frequently used shortcuts and start working more efficiently.

KeyCue has already received many awards, including a 4.5-Mice award from MacWorld magazine.

System Requirements:
KeyCue 7.5 requires Mac OS X 10.6 or newer and is fully compatible with OS X Yosemite (10.10).

Availability and Ordering:
The upgrade to KeyCue 7.5 is free for anyone who owns a valid license for KeyCue 7. Upgrade paths are available for owners of older licenses. For information about purchases, including enterprise licenses, volume discounts, and upgrade pricing offers, see the company's web site.

Celebrate World Tai Chi Day with Taichi Temple iPad App and Master Li - Published on 04/21/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Taichi Temple, the first motion sensor app for Tai Chi, arrives just in time to help celebrate this year's World Tai Chi Day, offering a revolutionary new way to de-compress, relax and exercise all at the same time. Using Extreme Reality technology, this app gives an innovative approach to learning tai chi with authentic roots in traditional Chinese martial arts. From Berlin to Beijing, from Kunnamkulam to Kalamazoo, tai chi lovers can now practice cloud hands with Master Li any time, anywhere.

Antwerp, Belgium and Herzelia, Israel - Taichi Temple, the first motion sensor app for Tai Chi, arrives just in time to help celebrate this year's World Tai Chi Day, offering a revolutionary new way to de-compress, relax and exercise all at the same time. Using Extreme Reality technology, this app gives an innovative approach to learning tai chi with authentic roots in traditional Chinese martial arts. From Berlin to Beijing, from Kunnamkulam to Kalamazoo, tai chi lovers can now practice cloud hands with Master Li any time, anywhere.

This year's World Tai Chi Day will take place on Saturday, April 25th. The annual event begins in the earliest time zones of Samoa at 10 am, and then participants across Oceania, Asia, Africa, Europe, North America, and South America take part, with celebrations in eighty nations and several hundred cities, ending with the final events in the last time zones of Hawaii almost an entire day later. Celebrations include mass tai chi and qigong exhibitions in many cities, and free classes in most participating cities.

"We wanted to release Taichi Temple in time for this big day," said app creator Rosa Mei. Mei is a professional martial artist and choreographer who has trained with Master Li for 13 years. "I grew up in a small town in North Carolina. My husband, who's also a martial artist, grew up in a remote village north of the Arctic Circle in Norway. We didn't have access to great martial arts teachers and had to move to larger cities to continue our training. I wanted to make an app that anyone, anywhere with a desire to learn tai chi, could use, an app with a genuine high-level master of the art form."

"Then I added motion sensors because it's such a cool feature and webcams on mobile devices already have that ability built in. It becomes another learning tool... plus I'm kind of a geek at heart."

Available now for all iPads on the iTunes Store, Taichi Temple is the cool, new way to find flow through moving meditation. In under two hours, users will have a solid overview of tai chi fundamentals, including correct breathing, postures and movement terminology. They can then customize their training and track daily progress. The Extreme Reality motion technology monitors in real time how well they are syncing with Master Li, using only the iPad webcam. Users have an authentic master of tai chi as their own personal coach and training partner.

Taichi Temple is perfect for people on the go who are looking for a modern way to reduce stress and exercise at the same time. The app teaches natural breathing, balance and mental concentration through low-impact qi gong and tai chi exercises. Originally developed in China as a highly effective martial art, tai chi contains potent health benefits and has been scientifically proven to lower blood pressure and improve circulation and balance. Tai chi is now being practiced by people from all walks of life, from professional athletes to cancer survivors to legions of dedicated park practitioners all over the world.

Features:
* Customized training and progress tracking
* Powered by revolutionary Extreme Reality motion sensing technology
* Master JianLong Li - a true tai chi expert and former Chinese wushu champion
* No log-ins to use the app or links to social media
* No in-app purchases, No subscriptions

Osnat Lidor, VP Marketing at Extreme Reality adds, "We are proud to be part of Taichi Temple, a truly innovative application that brings users a learning experience that was never before available. Anyone with an iPad can practice tai chi with real-time feedback and improve over time."
