Now fixed. • Some users have reported intermittent crash when program is closing. One confirmed case of this has been fixed. Version 2.2.1.18 Notes (2007/06/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.17 • Takeoff Main grid: Added splitterbar at footer region to allow resizing • Takeoff Main grid: Added Progressbar to building of footer info c/w with Cancel option. Footer will then show zero values with "CANCELLED" text top left cell • Takeoff Main grid: Optimized Footer generation by several orders of magnitude. Be aware of "Include child locations" to location outline as this will require more rebuilding time. This should normally be set off. A designation of "All items" will otherwise appear in location name band. Version 2.2.1.17 Notes (2007/06/18) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.16 • Takeoff Main grid: Added location detail for Drawing, Scope and Notes. • Takeoff Main grid: Added Footer details including mat/labor costs, markup, profit and sell. • Takeoff Main grid: Added Right Click GroupBy feauture - note column needs to be sorted. • Takeoff Main grid: Added Right Click Filter feauture.

Version 2.2.1.15 Notes (2007/05/30) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.14 • Recalc Takeoff now shows all errors encountered at end of recalc. • Potentially catastrophic failure in validating incomplete/empty project folders has been fixed • Intermittent problem with adding sub-assemblies and lower level items to takeoff now fixed • Recalc button no longer automatically enabled when cloning takeoff locations. Version 2.2.1.14 Notes (2007/04/02) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.13 • Edit takeoff option - Fixed grid selection from editing previous row. Also restored titles, grid size and blank panel above. • Email support - removed "smtp:" from beginning of email address. Version 2.2.1.13 Notes (2007/04/02) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.12 • Clicking "Print" from the pop-up menu on the Location outline now prints the items in that location and sub-locations, instead of the entire project. You can still print the entire project by selecting the top item in the tree (the project name). • Takeoff now remembers the width of the list box in the icon pick bar • NOTES about the new PLPack utility (introduced Feb. 6, 2007): This program repairs many database errors that can occur in a multi-user environment. If you experience errors when opening a particular project, first make sure no other users are using that project, then run PLPack. Open the project in PLPack, and click the Pack button. A backup will be made prior to repairing and reindexing the project. If you have problems opening all projects (or many of them), then it is possible that the System folder (which keeps the project names and user names) may be in need of repair. In PLPack, select Actions, and then Pack System Folder to repair and reindex this folder. If these steps do not resolve the issue, or if you encounter new problems after taking these steps, please contact us. • Project Title is now preserved when you Revert a project • Project names are now automatically rebuilt even if the project names table is deleted while takeoff is running Version 2.2.1.12 Notes (2007/03/09) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.11 • You can no longer (accidentally) resize outlines (tree views such as the takeoff locations) to be so small that they disappear completely. Version 2.2.1.11 Notes (2007/03/01) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.10 • Takeoff Item Editor: Labor page now shows a total of labor hours instead of a count of labor line items • Takeoff Main Page: If you resized the list to the left of the Pick Bar such that it disappeared, you would not be able to bring it back without restarting Takeoff. This has been fixed. • Catalog::Products: If you tried to resize the list, it would always shrink and would then not be restorable. This is fixed. Version 2.2.1.10 Notes (2007/02/19) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.9 • Added a "Clone" menu option to the Catalog. You can now, with one click, make a copy of a product, sub-assembly, part, component, or labor item. • PDOXUSRS.NET in C:\ root folder previously eliminated had come back. Gone again. • File::Open Project dialog - header was disappearing. Fixed. • Admin::Groups - intermittent hourglass cursor staying on. The program wasn't locked up, it was just showing an hourglass (with which one could, awkwardly, still click things). This is fixed. • Catalog - a progress indicator is now shown when building a large outline. • General - When resizing takeoff to be very small, sometimes the status bar would disappear - and not reappear unless takeoff is maximized! This is believed fixed now. Note: Prior to this version, scrollbars would appear to let you scroll around parts of takeoff which were too big to fit in the small program window. Now those parts are resized and the scrollbars do not appear. We are interested in hearing from anyone who would rather have the scrollbars. This does not affect items that normally scroll when there is too much data to fit, like the location tree or the takeoff grid. • Admin::Groups - Added some code to prevent groups from a previous version of a project from being improperly retained when reverting. Version 2.2.1.9 Notes (2007/02/08) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.8 • Fixed a problem in the Open Project dialog where not all projects would be shown. • In File::Revert, added the option to revert directly from the DeletedProjects folder. • In File::Revert, added the option to revert from ZIP files whose filenames do not match TK*.ZIP (this was necessary to make reverting from Deleted Projects work, but power users may find it helpful elsewhere). • In File::Revert, fixed a problem where you could not always revert the file you selected. Version 2.2.1.8 Notes (2007/02/07) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.7 • Options in Takeoff Item Editor work again. • In the bitmap selector dialog (where you bring in existing graphics to use for icons) there had been a lack of synchronization between the drive letter selector and the path selector. This is now fixed. Version 2.2.1.7 Notes (2007/02/06) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.6 • Type-ahead in the Contact editor "State" box now works. • Some users were not able to type in the "Comments" box in the takeoff item editor. This should be fixed now. • Cloning a location with a really long name resulted in a location with a name that was too long for the database. That is now fixed (the new name is truncated at the maximum length). • In Math Stuff, you can now use the "Usage" popup menu item to see where Choice sets are being used. • In the Catalog, you can now use the new "Usage" popup menu item to see where catalog items are being used. • In both Usage features mentioned above, there is now a "Print" button so that you can print out a long list of option or sub-item usages and work from the printout when modifying your catalog. • Introduced a new external utility: plPack. This replaces plRepair and plReindex. • Added support for the new green USB license keys. Version 2.2.1.6 Notes (2007/01/24) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.5 • The "Clone" feature sometimes would not copy all sublocations. This is now fixed. • When sending email to Takeoff Support, the takeoff settings are saved to a text file, zipped up, and the zip is sent as an attachment, instead of the settings being written into the message body. • We have temporarily disabled the new summary totals feature as some of its subtotals were sometimes disagreeing with their counterparts on the material and labor summary pages. This feature will return when it's ready for prime time. Version 2.2.1.5 Notes (2007/01/19) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.4 • The final resolution of the disappearing indexes in /system: Tables in the System folder are now kept in sync with templates in the Empty folder as project tables already are. • Auto-Update - report templates were being extracted to the wrong directory. This is fixed, although you don't need to download a Takeoff update to get this fix, because the problem was with the reports CAB file on our server. • Takeoff now attempts to repair options that become corrupted. When you visit a product with corrupted options, you will be notified of the problem. Version 2.2.1.4 Notes (2007/01/17) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.3 • Fixed a new bug where Materials would show up in Labor summary and vice versa Version 2.2.1.3 Notes (2007/01/12) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.2 • This is a maintenance release containing two provisional fixes for problems which we have not been able to reproduce in a test environment: • Implemented a possible workaround for a very intermittent problem where takeoff product options may be dropped or doubled • Implemented a possible fix for a very intermittent problem where table indexes in the "system" directory were unexpectedly deleted, making it impossible to enter the program. Version 2.2.1.2 Notes (2007/01/09) --------------------- Changes from version 2.2.1.1 • Help::Email Takeoff Support - implemented a workaround for ongoing problems uith resolving the support email address on certain mail servers • Fixed the progress bar that is supposed to appear when first loading a long list of reports in the report previewer Version 2.2.1.1 Notes (2007/01/05) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.60 • Admin::Labor - spurious "link_prd" column removed • Excel Export - Phase/Revision labels reversed - now fixed • Admin::Groups - "Copy from Above" (F4 key) feature had been intermittently not working. Now fixed. • Takeoff::Summary - Summary breakout information now at bottom of summary grid, similar to Labor and Material summary pages Version 2.1.1.60 Notes (2007/01/04) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.59 • If you have had trouble using the Help::Email Takeoff Support feature, please try it again. • "Problem 8e" at startup (and occasionally when navigating the location outline) should be eliminated now. This had had the effect of making the location outline disappear, "Invalid Index" errors, frozen hourglass-cursor, etc. Version 2.1.1.59 Notes (2007/01/02) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.58 • Dragging and dropping Extra cost items was causing problems when the takeoff item in question was itself dragged and dropped into the takeoff. The mechanism for adding Extra cost items has been changed as a result, and is now consistent with our Options selector. • Also in the Extra cost items selector - prior to this version, when you deleted an Extra cost, you could not re-add it until you left and re-entered the item editor. This has now been fixed - re-added items will now show up and have the correct quantity. • Fixed a minor problem in which you could have extra Material costs but no other material costs (usually due to no material styles being selected) and the item editor would incorrectly warn you that there were no material costs at all. Version 2.1.1.58 Notes (2006/12/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.57 • This is a maintenance release that is being issued to try and capture an ongoing bug. If you have recently encountered "Problem 8e" at startup, please send us the DEBUG.LOG file in your takeoff program folder after installing and running this update. Version 2.1.1.57 Notes (2006/12/13) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.56 • Optimized project-space validation measures, which had been causing serious delays on installations with large numbers of projects. A limitation of the Windows operating system is that very large file or subdirectory counts can cause slow performance, therefore this problem can be ameliorated to a large extent by archiving projects that are no longer referenced, and moving them to another directory. Version 2.1.1.56 Notes (2006/12/08) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.55 • Double-refresh when changing materials in Takeoff item editor (apparently) fixed • "Cannot Perform This Operation On An Open Dataset" error when editing multiple takeoff items fixed • If you placed a valid project in the /projects/ folder without its own subfolder, or if you hacked a folder name into the projname.db table, takeoff would attempt to delete the offending folder, with possibly catastrophic results. This has been fixed. If you ever lose a project unexpectedly, look for its files in your Recycle Bin and Restore them, then call us. • Some redundant confirmation messages have been eliminated. • Fixed a lingering problem with the email name/address in the "Help::Email Takeoff Support" feature. Version 2.1.1.55 Notes (2006/11/30) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.54 • Very intermittent problem where the takeoff pickbar appears not to function (click and nothing happens) is fixed • "Field Not Found" error during takeoff navigation is fixed. This appears to have the same basic cause as the previous one. Version 2.1.1.54 Notes (2006/11/28) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.53 • You can now delete a project without errors appearing. • "Cannot perform this operation on a closed dataset" error when changing material groups in Takeoff Item Editor fixed • Error in cloning a location whose name contains quotes (") has been fixed. • "Key Violation" on opening projects (when a project has been copied from outside takeoff) fixed • Takeoff now warns you if you are about to add a product to the takeoff that has not had any materials specified • Copying and pasting items in the Catalog now lights up the "Sigma" (recalc) button because pasting items changes the catalog such that the existing takeoff might be affected • Changing the group type (Construction/Finish/Hardware) on the takeoff page no longer causes an error • Added a progress indicator to the Reports page, so that you have an idea how long it is going to take to retrieve a large list of reports over a possibly slow network • Admin::Options - Options in the drop-down menus are now sorted alphanumerically, making the option you want easier to find. • Sometimes when opening a project, the project selector dialog would say "Copy Files From..." instead of "Open Project..." as if you were creating a new one based on the selected project. This was actually a purely cosmetic error (you really were opening an existing project and not creating a new one despite what the dialog said) and is now fixed. • When adding a new location to the Takeoff, the new location would be selected but the takeoff items list would still show whatever was in the last location before adding the new one. This is now fixed - when you add a location, it now correctly shows that the new location is empty. • Fixed cosmetic glitch in Location edit dialog (captions sometimes cut off) Version 2.1.1.53 Notes (2006/11/10) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.52 • Fixed a glitch in the Email Support feature - the email address and email To: name were in the wrong order. • Mysterious files PDOXUSRS.NET and PROJECT.INI in C: root should no longer appear (it's safe to delete them from there) Version 2.1.1.52 Notes (2006/11/03) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.51 • Incorrect sort column indicated when sorting the takeoff grid - now fixed! • When adding a new Product, Component, etc, default "cube" icon was not transferred into the PLPaint icon editor. This is now fixed. • Mystery labor items had been showing up in Catalog grids. These were labour items associated with materials whose ID number was coincidentally the same as the Catalog item being viewed, and were not actually associated with those products. These labor items did not appear in the takeoff (i.e. they did not affect bids) and now no longer appear inappropriately in the catalog. Version 2.1.1.51 Notes (2006/10/26) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.50 • Corrupted icon not correctly replaced with default, sometimes leading to crash. Now fixed. • "General MAPI Error" on using Email Project and Email Support features now fixed. Version 2.1.1.50 Notes (2006/10/23) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.49 • Fixed occasional infinite loop (leads to lockup, out of memory errors) in Catalog • Takeoff Item Editor should always require only one click of Save or Cancel to save or cancel now. • Admin::Material - newly added items were not available as extra costs in the Takeoff item editor until Takeoff restarted. This is now fixed. Version 2.1.1.49 Notes (2006/10/04) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.48 • Improved navigation in Report Viewer. Version 2.1.1.48 Notes (2006/09/28) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.47 • Truncation of Extra labor costs in items that have been Cloned now fixed. • Some users who were experiencing difficulty getting updates may have better success now. • Math Stuff - Deleting the last value in a choice set causes problems downstream - this is no longer allowed. • Math Stuff - Right-click Delete on Choice Set Values grid fixed. Also will no longer let you delete or edit when nothing is selected. Version 2.1.1.47 Notes (2006/09/25) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.46 • All Catalog and Admin Pages: Grid columns could not be resized. This is now fixed. • Catalog::Component: Changing component UOM now clears relevant material mappings. This means, for example, that if you change a component's UOM from "SqFt" to "BdFt", you will not still have a (invalid) sheet material selected in Admin:Groups. • Catalog::Component: Would appear to allow adding a new library at the same level as the root of the component outline (but later the new library would be where it belongs). This no longer happens. • Admin::Groups: Right-click menu showed irrelevant choices (e.g. "copy from above" when the menu was invoked from a group tab). This is now fixed. • Various Dialogs: In dialogs that have an "Add" feature (which adds a new item, then clears the dialog so you can add another), the "Add" button is now captioned "Add Next" to more clearly communicate its function to users. This is a continuation of the same recaptioning done to the Catalog::Component component editing dialog in version 2.1.1.43. • A bug has been fixed which very infrequently caused unwanted "Extra" costs to appear in the Takeoff. • Math Stuff: When a new option was created, its Choice Set would not be immediately displayed with the other option properties. This is now fixed. • Catalog::Component: When adding new Labor items, sometimes an irrelevant "width" selector would appear. This is fixed. • Takeoff Grid: When attempting to edit an item by hitting the "Enter" key, Takeoff would sometimes return an Access Violation error instead of editing the item. This is fixed. Version 2.1.1.46 Notes (2006/09/21) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.45 • Takeoff Item Editor: By request we have removed the restriction on entering a negative quantity. Version 2.1.1.45 Notes (2006/09/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.44 • Math Stuff: Choice set popup menu would have disabled options (Add/Edit/Delete) when the first choice set in the tree was selected; this is now fixed. Version 2.1.1.44 Notes (2006/09/18) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.43 • Math Stuff: Fix made to "Add/Edit/Delete Choice Value" buttons now extended to their counterparts in the right-click popup menu. Version 2.1.1.43 Notes (2006/09/14) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.42 • Math Stuff and Catalog::Component dialogs - button and edit box placement issues on machines configured for 120 dpi (Large Fonts) display are now resolved. The buttons and other controls in those dialogs are now dynamically resized and repositioned to accommodate any screen resolution and any resize of their respective windows. • Admin::Material - previous to this version, categories could not be deleted due to not being empty even when the category has just been emptied. This is now fixed. Empty categories are also now correctly reported in the status bar (bottom of the Takeoff program window) as having zero materials. • Catalog::Component - Changing component UOM now resets material choice and clears any now-invalid selection there. • Math Stuff and Catalog::Product - alphabetically-lowest choice set's choices were not available. This is now fixed. • Math Stuff: "Add Choice Set" popup menu option is now functionally distinct from "Add Choice Set Value" button on the choice set's values grid. Before, clicking one would randomly invoke the dialog for the other. • Catalog::Component - "Add" button recaptioned. It now says "Add Next" to better communicate to the user that the button adds the currently-being-entered component to the database and then clears the dialog so you can Add another. Version 2.1.1.42 Notes (2006/08/31) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.39 • Fixed an elusive and intermittent crash on taking off certain products • Greatly improved performance of the Location tree builder • Versions 2.1.1.40 and 2.1.1.41 were limited maintenance and beta builds and were not formally released. Version 2.1.1.39 Notes (2006/07/17) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.38 • Admin::Material - fixed copy-paste problem where associated labor costs would not be copied with a material Version 2.1.1.38 Notes (2006/06/13) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.37 • Added Drag-Copy and Drag-Move from grids to outlines in Takeoff, Catalog:Labor and Admin:Material. • Fixed ongoing issues with backing up projects to floppys. A new format dialog gives formatting options when preparing floppys for backup. Version 2.1.1.37 Notes (2006/06/13) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.36 • This is a test version that was used internally but never released. Version 2.1.1.36 Notes (2006/05/09) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.35 • Cosmetic fix - Change button for update URL no longer stretches unexpectedly • Orphaned Extra costs now removed • SMTP errors in mail-project and mail-support features (apparently) fixed • Updated-date column in Projects list no longer has empty entries Version 2.1.1.35 Notes (2006/04/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.32 • Ongoing issues with importing takeoff 1 projects are resolved • Versions 2.1.1.33 and 2.1.1.34 were limited-distribution temporary maintenance releases. Version 2.1.1.32 Notes (2006/04/10) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.31 • You can now use the Delete key to delete Admin items • Column sizing crash apparently fixed • .LCK files no longer appear in backups • Table version conflicts should be resolved now Version 2.1.1.31 Notes (2006/04/04) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.30 • Misc. Bug fixes Version 2.1.1.30 Notes (2006/03/21) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.29 • New "Copy Locations" feature when creating a new project using an existing one as a template. The normal behavior of creating a new project is now that the products, costs, and locations are not copied from the template - this saves you the effort of having to delete them to start a new project. To copy the locations, products and costs from a template project into a new one, check the "Copy Locations" option on the project selector list when you are selecting the template project. • Also in the Project Selector, a new column shows the last-modified date and time, so that you can put the most current projects at the top of the list. Version 2.1.1.29 Notes (2006/03/17) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.28 • New Bid Classification feature in Edit::Project for future feature expansion • Drag and drop of takeoff item to new area now always causes a refresh of the takeoff grid Version 2.1.1.28 Notes (2006/03/15) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.27 • Tweaked the new takeoff item editor cost/sell chart a bit. • More aggressive checking for catalog changes in triggering recalc Version 2.1.1.27 Notes (2006/03/14) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.26 • Added new Cost/Sell chart in Takeoff item editor - now you can get real time feedback on markup decisions at the line-item level! Version 2.1.1.26 Notes (2006/02/16) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.25 • Maintenance Release fixes several minor glitches Version 2.1.1.25 Notes (2006/02/14) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.24 • For those with a large number of projects, the new "Print List" button on the Open-Project dialog may be helpful. • Updated report templates - Bid Results report - to reflect changes to material and labor costs implemented since 2.1.1.22 Version 2.1.1.24 Notes (2006/02/13) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.22 • Re-enabled multi-edit of takeoff items that are not of the same UOM. • Material costs now have a distinction between regular material costs and "indirect" costs (all existing material costs will default to regular) • Version 2.1.1.23 was not released. Version 2.1.1.22 Notes (2006/02/07) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.21 • Some multi-user collision issues resolved • Labor costs now have a distinction between regular labor costs and "indirect" costs (all existing labor costs will default to regular) Version 2.1.1.21 Notes (2006/02/02) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.20 • Added a version rollback feature • Greatly sped up building the location outline Version 2.1.1.20 Notes (2006/02/01) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.18 • This is a maintenance release • Version 2.1.1.19 was not formally released Version 2.1.1.18 Notes (2006/01/30) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.17 • New Email-a-Project feature from the File menu allows you to easily email a project (and optionally, its report templates, graphics, and associated document files) to anyone. • New Email PLS Support feature from the Help menu allows you to easily send us all the information needed to resolve any problems you may experience. • Fixed a very minor bug where the location tree, after being built, does not take down the tree-building progress dialog. This especially happened after cloning a location in a takeoff with more than 100 items. Version 2.1.1.17 Notes (2006/01/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.16 • New column in Admin::Materials indicates whether material items have associated labor costs • Bug in takeoff item edit (table does not exist error) fixed • Admin::Groups Copy-From-Above feature lets you quickly set values for a whole category • Admin::Materials and Admin::Labor multi-item edit capability added • Admin::Materials multi-item delete, copy, paste, and move capabilities added • Contact - Client companies can now have a primary contact designated Version 2.1.1.16 Notes (2006/01/05) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.15 • When project folders were added to takeoff, if the projects predated our new Project Editor feature, they wouldn't be recognized by takeoff. Now they are. • Edit :: Math Stuff - Editing more than one math symbol at a time resulted in only one being saved immediately; this has been fixed • When creating a new project, the new project took the same name as the template from which it was created, resulting in the template's entry in the project name table being overwritten with the new project name. This is fixed. • Fixed a bug in Catalog/Labor Copy & Move feature (Move right-click option was disabled when it should have been enabled) • If you changed the title of a Crystal report used by Takeoff, the old title would still appear in the report list. The program now checks file dates to see if there is the potential for a change of title (or any other file attribute which we may want to use in future) • Bug where changes in Admin::Material did not reflect in Extra cost items is now fixed. • Several very minor cosmetic cleanups. Version 2.1.1.15 Notes (2005/12/30) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.14 • Takeoff item editor - Qty caption bug on multi-item edit now fixed • You can now add new phases and revisions from the phase and revision selectors in the Takeoff item editor • New Clone Location feature (right click on location outline) copies entire branches of a takeoff at once • Admin :: Material - editing a material item after having previously been in a different project with a dissimilar set of UOMs (units of measurement) no longer causes UOMs in the current project to be corrupted. Version 2.1.1.14 Notes (2005/12/22) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.13 • Clarified caption in takeoff item summary grid from "Base" to "Base Cost" (this would have been confusing if your takeoff item was a Base cab or something like that) Version 2.1.1.13 Notes (2005/11/29) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.12 • A very elusive bug in which the Material and Labor summaries showed a total of $0.00 when viewing the top branch of the outline has been fixed. Version 2.1.1.12 Notes (2005/11/22) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.11 • Print Setup button added to Reports toolbar - you can now change printers when printing reports. Version 2.1.1.11 Notes (2005/11/07) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.10 • Progress dialog now shows when doing scheduled program update. Version 2.1.1.10 Notes (2005/11/02) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.9 • Takeoff was rebuilding the Product table on loading projects every time, resulting in sometimes lengthy load times. This has been corrected and should prove faster now. Version 2.1.1.9 Notes (2005/10/28) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.8 • Another facet of the previous Drag-Drop bug fixed Version 2.1.1.8 Notes (2005/10/26) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.7 • More work done to improve the speed of location navigation. • New Drag-Drop bug (apparently) fixed Version 2.1.1.7 Notes (2005/10/19) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.6 • Much work done to improve the speed of location navigation. Version 2.1.1.6 Notes (2005/10/13) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.5 • Nasty infinite loop that rarely occurs in Catalog when adding to a component now fixed. Version 2.1.1.5 Notes (2005/10/06) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.4 • Tool Tips no longer disappear (note: this was a very elusive bug; if you still experience it please let us know) • Enhancements to Math Stuff page • Enhancements to Backup and Revert, including backup to Desktop • Takeoff location outline is initially collapsed to first level, which many users find more useful than all-nodes-open. Version 2.1.1.4 Notes (2005/09/28) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.3 • Fixed intermittent "Cannot perform this operation on a closed data set" errors Version 2.1.1.3 Notes (2005/09/26) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.2 • Fixed a bug where custom reports were not available. Version 2.1.1.2 Notes (2005/09/21) --------------------- Changes from version 2.1.1.1 • Fixed a bug where sometimes items with extra costs would generate a "Cannot Perform This Operation On A Closed Data Set" error Version 2.1.1.1 Notes (2005/09/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.100 • This release marks the official release of Takeoff 2.1 • Some speed issues in launching the takeoff item editor possibly fixed • Errors in using the "Print" option in right-click menus fixed Version 2.00.100 Notes (2005/09/15) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.99 • Exception on right clicking trees fixed • Tab order in takeoff item editor fixed • Intermittent access violation on clicking pickbar fixed Version 2.00.99 Notes (2005/09/15) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.98 • Revert backups feature fixed! Version 2.00.98 Notes (2005/09/13) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.97 • Fixed a bug where Extra Costs were not saved if you had "Disable Automatic Recalc" selected. Version 2.00.97 Notes (2005/09/06) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.96 • Data templates are no longer an optional download when upgrading - starting with this version, when you download the upgrade, you are also downloading the data templates, which will be automatically installed when you run takeoff. This should fix numerous table errors on project open caused by incompatible table versions. Version 2.00.96 Notes (2005/08/31) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.95 • In 2.00.95 we moved the location of report templates (RPT files) from within project directories to a common folder called Reports. Takeoff's handling of the reports in the new location had flaws which are now fixed. Version 2.00.95 Notes (2005/08/26) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.94 • Problem locating network path when performing backups is now solved • Problem entering outside dimensions for takeoff items solved Version 2.00.94 Notes (2005/08/17) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.93 • Editing Option formulas in the Takeoff Item Editor is now easier. • Improved validate-with-empty code - indexes are now checked thoroughly when deciding whether a table needs updating. • Cosmetic fixes include better window maximization when running under XP, and better placement of text elements on the startup screen. • Making backups of projects should now be considerably faster (at the cost of the backups being somewhat larger), and reverts should succeed more often. • Labor breakout quantities are now included in the Excel output, and several steps have been taken to make launching Excel from takeoff more stable. Also some cosmetic improvements, and some previously unnamed cells are now named. Version 2.00.93 Notes (2005/08/11) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.92 • Some users had reported for some time now that the Preferences dialog closes the currently-open project when anything is changed. The exact situation under which this occurs has finally been identified and this bug should now be fixed. Please contact us at 888-852-1478 if you see this problem again in any version after .93. • Numerous cosmetic fixes to the Preferences dialog, especially on systems with non-standard screen resolution. While these fixes are considered cosmetic because they involve improvements in the placement of edit boxes, captions, etc., in fact some edits and check boxes in this dialog on certain PCs were inaccessible or had ambiguous meaning before these fixes. • Several Improvements to the appearance of the main status bar • In the takeoff item editor, changes in an item's dimensions now reflect immediately in the summary at the top of the dialog. • In the takeoff item editor, the name of the item being edited/added is now placed more prominently. • The Edit :: Project menu item is now disabled when there is no project. Version 2.00.92 Notes (2005/08/08) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.91 • A new bug where copy/pasting items on the Material page affected unrelated items in the Catalog has been fixed. Version 2.00.91 Notes (2005/07/12) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.89 • Still more stabilization on converting old projects • New Project Properties dialog (see Edit::Project) • Note: Version 2.00.90 was an internal beta and not released. Version 2.00.89 Notes (2005/06/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.88 • The Validate-with-Empty feature described below has been made considerably more stable • You can now leave the material blank in Admin::Groups Version 2.00.88 Notes (2005/06/07) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.87 • Added a Validate-With-Empty feature that restructures older Takeoff tables to the latest structure. Consequently, the current table structures are included in every update from this release forward. They are contained in the "Empty" folder which will be overwritten with the current Empty tables on installing an update. The new feature compares existing project files with the structure of their counterparts in the "Empty" folder and applies changes, if needed, to the existing project files. If you are updating through the Auto Updater, make sure you have selected "Data and Report Templates" in the list of components to download. • This release includes the fixes listed in unreleased version 2.00.87. Version 2.00.87 Notes (2005/05/25) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.86 • Fixed multiple user access problems, both on opening project concurrently (on multiple workstations on a network) and using takeoff edit item dialog. Previously, when edit takeoff item dialog was open, no other user could open the dialog without the costs temporarily disappearing, and no other user who was not already in the same project could open the project. These are now fixed. • This is a beta version and was not released. The fixes included here will be released in the next version. Version 2.00.86 Notes (2005/05/24) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.85 • Takeoff Item Editor Options grid edit control and other grid edits debugged • Growing collection of _qsq*.db files in \priv folder fixed (you may delete the contents of that folder when no one is using Takeoff) Version 2.00.85 Notes (2005/05/20) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.84 • Solved problems related to Options in takeoff item editor Version 2.00.84 Notes (2005/05/09) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.83 • Fixed bug which caused costs to (sometimes) not show in reports. • Takeoff Item Editor Extras grid now has right-click menu options • Takeoff Item Editor Extras grid now shows up to 60 character extra descriptions Version 2.00.83 Notes --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.82 • Fixed several new bugs • Updated "Empty" folder files Version 2.00.82 Notes (2005/04/29) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.76 • Added RAW data export to export menu - plExport • New Takeoff Item editor separates labor and material items • New feature: Extra cost items associated with a takeoff line item • Takeoff tree items can now have descriptions up to 40 characters • Takeoff grid can now optionally show items in sub locations of current tree location • Material items can now have descriptions up to 60 characters • Material items now have a date stamp so you can keep material costs up to date • Changed Export button to a drop-down menu of export programs which remembers the last one used and displays the program icon on its button face. • "Reset Column Settings" button in Edit::Preferences menu repairs broken grids • Numerous bug fixes • Note: Versions 2.00.77 to 2.00.81 are betas and were not released. Version 2.00.76 Notes (2005/03/21) --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.75 • More grids fixed • Takeoff tree view now allows you to include sub-locations of a selected location in the Takeoff Grid • Restored right-click menu to Takeoff::Summary grid Version 2.00.75 Notes --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.74 • Restored Locations column in takeoff show-all view • Admin::Groups now more closely mimics the behaviour of Takeoff 1 • Catalog::Components - fixed issue with material selector mismatch to selected UOM • Fixed multi-selection cancel on shifted right-click • Added automatic recovery when toffsmry.db and toff_cst.db tables become corrupted due to aborted recalc • Numerous minor cosmetic issues resolved Version 2.00.74 Notes --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.73 • Icons in grids no longer stretch with columns • Restored full add-new-locations functionality including outline sort and update on the fly. • Two recently-replaced grids, formerly grey in colour, are now the stylish Takeoff Green of other grids. • Fixed an infinite loop (i.e. you no longer need to use Task Manager to get out of Takeoff) in the Admin::Groups grid. • Takeoff::Takeoff grid no longer forced to window width - a scrollbar now allows you size columns in that grid as you need. Version 2.00.73 Notes --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.72 • Grid column size issues (mostly) fixed • Fixed random "Temporary Error A2" Version 2.00.72 Notes --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.71 • Shift multi-select (maybe) fixed • Can now backup to floppies regardless of project size, will span multiple floppies if required • Crash on clicking pickbar arrow buttons fixed • Better handling of new users returns to user prompt instead of closing program when you cancel adding a new user. Version 2.00.71 Notes --------------------- Changes from version 2.00.70 • Multi-select item edit functionality in takeoff restored • Recalc now checked before going into reports • Corrected condition in which delete key had unexpected scope (e.g. select an item within a product, hit Delete, product disappears) • Admin::Groups unit cost column no longer rounded to nearest dollar.
