ListMagic in RevSelect
Making List Management a Joy in 2009

by Eric Chatonet

ListMagicLogoNewThe latest product to join the RevSelect product line of add-ons for Revolution is ListMagic, from So Smart Software.

The essential list manager to build professional projects with a few clicks.


Have you seen and envied lists displayed in sophisticated applications like iTunes? Column sorting and reorganizing, mini check boxes, line numbering, editing and much more. Do you want to install such lists in your Revolution projects easily? And would you like to provide filtering, friendly printing, export and find tools?

ListMagic brings you all this in two clicks!

ListMagic lets you decide about all settings without imposing anything. You can customize it to do exactly what you want. You feed it data just like any regular list field, using a simple tab/tab/return plain text list as you are used to. All other features are completely automated without having you to do anything to take advantage of them!

Could it get any easier?
