There's now a measurement converter to automatically convert quantities before displaying them. You can enter measurements as imperial or metric and automatically display them using one system or the other.
Changes in ChickenPing 1.41
- Added: Measurement converter.
- Added: Global preference to convert all units automatically between metric and imperial.
Two important features have been added in this version. Nutrition data is now available for many ingredients, and there's improved support for copy and paste (no more manually typing ingredients).
Changes in ChickenPing 1.40
To try out the ingredient pasting feature, use the list below. Go to add a recipe then press Ctrl+V to paste onto the window. There are a couple of non-standard, unusual formats which don't work (eg: 1-3/4 oz as a measurement), but the majority will be recognized automatically. If there's a format you think should be added, let us know on the forums so we can add it in the next version.

The addition of a snapshot gallery lets you browse through photos of finished dishes. It should be easier to add snapshots now by dragging and dropping instead of adding them in the edit window.
