In Version 5.2 and previous
versions back to 1999 (Corrected in Version 5.3)
- A bug exists in the grid generation module that manifests itself
typically as differences in the placement of unevaluated grid
intersections around the edges of
the generated grid or in areas where there are no data points.
(That is an oversimplified description of the
results of a programming bug - an array index overflow in areas near
the edge of the grid or the edge of areas where there are no data
points and grid intersections are left undefined). My thanks go to Matt
Gessner, a software
engineer from Ohio for identifying and correcting this bug.
In Version 5.1 (Corrected in
Version 5.2)
- A problem exists in the colour legend which causes zero to be
displayed as a very small
number (e.g. 0.1E-09) under some conditions.
In Version 5.0 (Corrected in Version 5.1)
- North South and East West was incorrectly labelled if
Corner
Coordinates were displayed for lat/lon data.
In Version 4.6 (Corrected in Version 4.7)
- The introduction of labels in the
output
for DXF Contour lines caused problems when attempting to select one
entire
contour line at a time. Version 4.7 introduces an option to
correct this problem.
Documentation Notes
Command files
- It is possible to re-read an input file by using "#" as the file
name. For example:
Edit input position 1 2 4 // Read
z coordinate from 4th position on the line.
Input File Metric "*"
// Prompt for the input file name.
Function Copy Grid to color.
Edit input position 1 2 3 // Read
z coordinate from 3rd position on the line.
Input File Metric
"#"
// Reread data from the same input file.
The above example would show the z data from position 4 as colour
variations and the data from position 3 as contour lines.
- If you want to use a comment with one of the input file commands
the file name must be enclosed in quotes. For example:
Input File Metric "mydata.txt" // This is a comment.
