Everyone anxiously waiting to use Safari 3 and Xyle scope can now rejoice and download Xyle scope 1.2 beta. Besides Safari 3 compatibility, version 1.2 also contains some major new features like full live editing support and the ability to save style sheets even if a page was accessed through a web server. For a full list of the new features please consult the documentation that comes with the beta (choose “Support Pages” from the help menu). As usual don’t forget to completely backup all style sheets associated with the pages you are experimenting with!We will be making more announcements in the weeks and months ahead, so be sure to stay tuned…

Apple caught us completely by surprise by releasing Safari 3 Public Beta months ahead of Mac OS X Leopard. Safari 3 installs a new version of WebKit which is not compatible with Xyle scope 1.1.8. Many features of Xyle scope won’t work when Safari 3 is installed.We have shifted our development resources from our forthcoming application to fixing these compatibility issues. We hope to provide you with an update within the next few days.In the meantime, if you want to sneak a peek on Safari 3, just go ahead and install it. Once you are done playing around with the new features, you can simply use the uninstaller provided by Apple to restore both WebKit and Safari. Afterwards Xyle scope will be fully functional again. Be aware, however, that you have to restart your computer both after installing and uninstalling Safari 3.
