From 11c814bfa371ad9c06f1912eb6c766f7123b8a35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Olly Betts Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2017 16:00:22 +1200 Subject: [PATCH] Update from git log --- NEWS | 72 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 72 insertions(+) diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 3cdc6269..5e8606f3 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -1,3 +1,75 @@ +up to: a7dfc9e6886db6888341f7e51763c8e180316848 + +* aven: + + + Use superscript 'g' symbol instead of word 'grads' in status bar. This + conserves the limited space available, and we already do this in the + compass and clino indicators so it's more consistent too. + + + Show one decimal place on measure line bearing. Pointed out by Benedikt + Hallinger on the therion list, though I'm sure this has been asked for + before by others. + + + Show gradient of the measuring line when both ends are stations. + + + Allow selection of text in cavern log window. Selection was disabled in + 1.2.28 because it seemed you couldn't actually copy selected text to the + clipboard, but retesting this now actually works fine for me, both with + current git master with the change reverted, and with code just before the + original change. + + + More robust parsing of cavern output - cleanly context highlighting which + extends beyond the end of the line. + + + Allow showing duplicate legs as dashed lines or hiding them entirely, + with dashed now being the default. Implemented by Patrick Warren. + + + Also allow "Dashed" for splays and "Faded" for duplicate legs. + + + Check environment variables VISUAL and EDITOR when looking for editor to + use when a warning or error is clicked on in the cavern log window. + Suggested by Wookey. + + The specified editor may have a GUI or need to run in a terminal, so it + seems we have to special case each editor supported. This also means we + can pass extra options needed to position the cursor on the + appropriate line/column. + Currently these editors are supported: + gvim, vim, gedit, pluma, emacs, nano, jed, kate + + + Fix handling of non-square terrain data files - the X and Y dimensions were + swapped. Reported by detrito. + + + Improve .hdr file parsing: + Use documented defaults for more values. And where we only support + a subset of values (or a particular value) check for files which + don't fall in the support subset in more cases. + Report error if NBITS not specified in .hdr + +* cavern: + + + (Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows versions): Build with newer version of + PROJ library which fixes buggy handling of *fix with lat-long coordinates. + Reported by Ross Davidson. + + + Fix cavern to handle Compass .DAT with no survey team. Previously this + resulted in the bogus error: Expecting numeric field, found "FROM" + Reported by Erin Lynch. + + + Handle UTF-8 "BOM" at start of .svx files. Unicode doesn't recommend its + use, but Microsoft stuff seems to like to create files with it in, and the + error cavern currently reports for such files is very confusing, so it + seems best to just handle it. Reported by Rob Eavis. + + + Change a couple of messages to use double quotes for consistency with all + other messages. + +* Fix errors in documentation of *units: "DEG" should be "DEGS", and + "MINUTES" has been supported for ages but wasn't documented. Reported by + Footleg. + +* Fix typo in dump3d documentation. + Changes in 1.2.30 (2016-10-03): * aven: -- 2.11.4.GIT
