Project Explorer Improvement: Graph Previews in Project Explorer | Graph Preview When Moussing Over Extra Large Icons to Show Graph Previews Note:
| |
ORG-10413 | Project Explorer Improvement: Folder Comments | Project Explorer Folders now support comments just like books or graphs. The ability to dump folder tree with descriptions has also been added to the pe_dir X-Function. The following new variables were added to pd_dir: 1. "recursive" for searching subfolders. 2. "display", only useful when recursive=1. It has 3 options: tree, tree with description (for folder, it is Comments; for window, it is LongName), and flat (separate with CRLF) 3. "sensitive" for case sensitive. |

ORG-7804 | Meteorological convention for XYAM Vector Plot | Polar/Meteorological/Custom Vector Convention |
ORG-10640 | Improvements on Copy Format and Paste Format context menus | In the past, people complained that we gave too many options when copying format. Sometimes it's confusing and hard to tell which format to copy. If user chooses the wrong format to copy, he/she has to copy format again before pasting again. Therefore we changed the design so that when copying format, show no options for less less options, while when pasting format, give more options so user can decide later what to paste and paste multiple times. 450pxE.g. Copy and Paste Format on Line+Symbol plots:
New Paste Format To Context MenuThis is used to better deal with when right click in page/layer level to paste format to.
E.g. if right clicking on axis and choosing Copy Format, and then right click in blank area of another graph, Paste Format To context menu will show, allowing user to what format/style to apply. E.g. if right clicking on line+symbol plot instead and choosing Copy format, Paste Format To will show different target and format/styles.
Improvements on Apply Formats dialog via Edit: Paste Format... menuIn the past, after copying format, user can choose Edit: Paste Format... to edit the format on clipboard and where to apply to.
