A revised version of the text \u00e2\u20ac\u201c reflecting the changes and additions to the Calendar approved in 2010 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c is now available in a more flexible format to all Visual Liturgy users with an active subscription. This is available, as normal, by running the Online update within VL Live.<\/p>\n<p>Once installed, the update can be used in several ways. The most obvious is that when you run Visual Liturgy, if it is a Saint\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Day, the name of the saint appears as a hyperlink on the Welcome screen.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vislit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"image\" border=\"0\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vislit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/image_thumb.png\" width=\"244\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Click the hyperlink to open the biography for that saint:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vislit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/image1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"image\" border=\"0\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vislit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/image_thumb1.png\" width=\"244\" height=\"188\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can also find a full index to the biographies in the Visual Liturgy Help menu (note that VL must be restarted after the update before this will appear).<\/p>\n<p>The biographies are also stored as texts in Visual Liturgy.
