GOWrite 2.3.44

Post by lpaatero »

Version 2.3.44 is is stable bug-fix version.
Fixed bugs:
  • * Problem in label handling creates sometimes multiple side-effects: Starting problems, failures in label editing.
    * Export file name was ignored in export wizard.
Cumulative changes from previous major stable version (2.3.38):
  • * It is possible to drag links to GOwrite. This is practical when WWW site does give text MIME type for SGF.
    * Exception combining, eg "65 at 32, 68 at 31, 70 at 32." can be shown as "65 70 at 32, 68 at 31." Ko positions can be combined as "ko at" for both colors playing ko. Various options can be selected in Board options dialog.
    * Now uses 76 [40] style exceptions in Japanese locale and and 76 = 40 in Chinese locale.
    * Updated Spain/ Mexico and Finnish translation. Thanks you for updates!
    * Re-organizing printing wizard to lower number of options while trying to keep all useful functionality. Main change is adding "material type" option, that allows GOWrite to adjust various heuristics internally.
    * Diagram numbers can now be dynamic, eg variable ("{0}" etc) replacement may be delayed to exporting or printing.
    * Implemented NGF and GIB importing. I have only few test files for each of formats, so please send me more testing material! Also files in other interesting formats (including gos, ig1) are welcome!
    * Collection dialog allows writing out multiple games from collection at once and including multiple SGF files into collection at once.
    * Created better and up-to-date example of command line printing. Fixed command line printing.
    * Fixed HTML size data when exporting bitmap (PNG). Improvements to bitmap graphics (export&screen).
    * Work-around for problems relating to OpenOffice draw polyline problems. Now polylines are simplified always in vector export formats.
    * Now GOWrite uses system proxies, if Java JRE supports them. Please note that Windows java versions 1.6.14 ... 1.6.22 have bug in this. So far proxy use applies to opening SGF based on URL and translation update sending.
    * Fix to update screen board immediately when graphics options are changed.
    * LaTex include file name was escaped too much.
    * Export wizard does not create empty nodes so often.
Internationalization notes:
  • * Enabled translation of UI texts in multiple places where forgotten, including (at least): "Print Wizard", "game information" dialog, "diagram property" dialog and "view settings" dialog.
    * Enabled localization of 2 strings in database setup dialog and New string in collection dialog.
    * New tooltips in main screen for label handling.
    * Print wizard contains new texts, and existing texts may have slight changes for clarity.
    * "General options" dialog contain new "Network" -page for network proxy settings.
    * "Board Options" page "Exceptions" has new settings for combining exceptions.
