Hi

Not usual for me to post another maintenance release so soon after the last (a couple of days ago) but Chiu was testing ComfortClient and made a comment about how tricky it could be to select objects on the floorplan sometimes and that got me thinking.  Can\'t have the \"Big-Man\" unhappy I thought! Smile

So spent the last couple of days improving the object selection technology in Floorplan Editor and I\'ve even impressed myself with how it has turned out so thought I\'d share the update sooner rather than later.  I also added a bonus \"Deselect All\" menu action as well just for good measure.

Download from the usual links.

A couple of other fixes as per below list.

Enjoy!

Bug Fixes/Changes
  • The authenticated Windows user (domainuser) is now written to ComfortClient and Floorplan Editor splashscreen, monitor window and log file. Splashscreen message box now has scroll.
  • New version 4.5.4.8 of the RTF-to-HTML conversion component.
  • Additional checks against “rogue” plugins sending invalid data to ComfortClient.
  • Setting the inner or outer radius to zero on a Circular Gauge Range Set would cause an exception in Floorplan Editor Object Properties.
  • Linear gauges did not correctly reset the ScaleFace Colour 2 property when “Fixed” scale type was selected in Floorplan Editor Object Properties. It should be the same as ScaleFace Colour 1.
  • Selecting objects in FloorplanEditor has changed;  hold down the SHIFT or CTRL key to select multiple objects, otherwise the new shape will be selected and the previous deselected.
  • Improved selection of objects that are nested inside other objects on the floorplan.
New Features
  • A new “Deselect All” (objects) action is added to the main menu, toolbar and right-click context menus.
 
[Update: 30 Aug 2014]

Known Errors 
  • Send-to-back & bring-to-front doesn't work on Linear Gauge objects.  Instead until next release as a workaround use on surrounding object types to get the desired effect. This is a long-standing bug going back to the time this object type was introduced.
