SO WHAT’S NEW IN THIS LATEST VERSION?
- The chemistry charts have been enhanced to allow colouring of the points according to membership in a group (e.g. a wellfield or a monitoring programme etc.). For this to work the sites to be grouped have to be added to the Member table with the same Member IDs. If the sites belong to several groups the user can select the Member IDs to be used for the chemistry charts from a list.
- The chemistry charts now also automatically add aggregate series (average, minimum and maximum) to the charts, which can be switched between through the popup menu (or the relevant shortcut keys).
- The chemistry charts and individual series can now be further modified by accessing the Chart Properties in the popup menu (right-click on chart).
AND WHAT HAS BEEN FIXED SINCE THE LAST VERSION?
- The random colouring of lines and points on the chemistry charts did not take into consideration that several sample results per site should have the same colour (but different symbols). This has now been changed so that all sample results for one site have the same colour, but have different symbols for the points to distinguish them.
- Several settings in the Chart Properties dialog did not work as expected or were missing. These have been changed or fixed and some new ones added.
- Several smaller bug fixes and code optimisations
