SO WHAT’S NEW IN THIS LATEST VERSION?
- The Report Settings before most reports load the Views in the database into a combobox when opening. This process may be slow on connections to remote (cloud) databases and also depending on the number of Views in the database. This has now been changed to only load the views once this is selected, which greatly improves opening the form.
- On some time-dependent entry forms for e.g. water levels, stage heights and field measuements, generally tables with a ot of time-dependent data, a date selection component has been added above the grid to quickly move the grid cursor to a selected date.
- The Pumping Test Report settings form has changed to accommodate more options for the charts. These include changing the line colours and thicknesses and also showing points on or off. The form now also makes more space for the upcoming inclusion of observation borehole settings.
AND WHAT HAS BEEN FIXED SINCE THE LAST VERSION?
- The Site Monitoring report gave an error when the water level chart could not be produced due to data problems. This has been resolved.
- The Statistics Reports did not work and gave an error message due to previous database changes. These have been fixed and improved.
- When changing automatic or maximum/minimum y-axes on the Chart Properties dialog these axes behaved erratically, especially when dealing with both left and right axes. This is now fixed.
- A couple of smaller bug fixes and optimisations.
