SO WHAT’S NEW IN THIS LATEST VERSION?
- The time-dependent Chemistry report was tweaked to better space the columns to make provision for longer parameter labels and values. While this is not the final solution a more user-intervention approach with additional settings before the report may be implemented in future.
AND WHAT HAS BEEN FIXED SINCE THE LAST VERSION?
- When adding new sites with map reference the option of not defaulting the coordinates to the centre of the map did not work. This is working now and produces 0.00 for X/Long and Y/Lat coordinates.
- Under certain coordinate system settings coordinate conversions gave an error with South African LO systems when adding a new site, but one could still finalise entering the data record. This is fixed.
- When updating Depth and Collar in Basic Information after changing those values under Hole Finish, and only one of the two fields was filled in, the other field could give a 0.00 or a “random previous” value in Basic Information. This is now resolved.
- A couple of smaller bug fixes and optimisations.
