Build 3.1.140

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

Release date: Dec 11th 2018

 

Fixes and improvements:

 

General:

If a COM port could not be opened, then clicking on an instrument value on that COM port caused a crash
Comms timeouts while performing write sequences (e.g. Cal Controllers) would hang sometimes

 

Trend Charts:

Chart Notes that are added manually are now shown expanded by default. This default can be changed so they are shown collapsed by un-checking the 'Show Expanded' checkbox on the 'Chart Notes' tab of the Trend Chart Properties box. Chart notes can be collapsed at any time using the popup menu.
Trend Chart leftmost and rightmost times were shown incorrectly in some timezones during Historical Replay

 

Passwords:

Buttons positioned 'behind' a rectangle on a GDW could not be selected for passwords and would cause a problem with canceling the password dialog box

 

Recipe:

Recipe 'Send To' can now send values to User Variables in a recipe. However, use with caution. Needs SETTINGS.INI [RUNTIME] RecipeSendToUserVars=1

 

Strategy:

Using the Math Function on text variables to do complex string manipulation could cause a crash
Strategy was not noticing changes to the PasswordUser variable. Now notices changes to PasswordUser, PasswordLevel and PasswordTime
