SQROT 3.70 was released on
2 September 2005 -- (changes shown below)
Dynamic:
1) Status bar (bottom of window)
a) Increased width of Time field.
b) Clicking on Time field now invokes the 'Date and Time Properties'
dialog box, allowing the Windows date and/or time to be changed.
2) Window size and location is now retained between invocations.
3) Fixed bugs with 'Optimization' (in progress) dialog box.
4) Tip | Undo current tip:
a) Fixed bug that tab button needed to be pressed twice to select
the 'Yes' button.
5) If even squares and if 'four couples sitout' is enabled:
a) If 1 to 4 couples are marked to sitout, the warning prompt is
no longer displayed.
b) Fixed bug that if 4 couples were marked to sitout, the program
selected 4 additional couples (a total of 8) to sitout.
6) If the standard grid is sorted by 'Couple', then whenever a couple
name is changed, the grid is now automatically re-sorted.
7) Added new grid columns (described below under 'Added menu options'):
a) Tag
b) Flags
8) Added menu options:
a) Edit | Tweak absent / sitout. This allows the operator to change
the number of tips absent and sitout for a given couple. Useful
for when a couple sat out a tip because the operator forgot to
change their status from 'Absent' to 'Ready'. This option has
also been added to the context-sensitive pop-up menu.
b) Display | Flags. When checked, the 'Flags' field is displayed
in the standard grid. This field displays attributes such as:
i) 'Square 1' -- couple will always be in square #1.
ii) 'Out every 2nd' -- couple will be out every 2nd tip.
iii) 'Out every 3rd' -- couple will be out every 3rd tip.
In addition, a frame is displayed in the lower right portion
of the window with 3 checkboxes:
i) 'Always in square 1'. When checked, the couple will always
be in square 1. This is useful for dance leaders (tape
group leaders, dance organizers, etc.) who need to always
be in the front square. ONLY ONE (ACTIVE) COUPLE MAY BE
MARKED WITH THIS ATTRIBUTE.
ii) 'Out every 2nd tip'. When checked, the couple will not be
in 2 tips in a row.
iii) 'Out every 3rd tip'. When checked, the couple will not be
in 3 tips in a row.
c) Display | Tag. When checked, the 'Tag' field is displayed
in the standard grid. This field may be used by the operator
for any purpose. For example, the 'Tag' field may contain the
couple's highest dance level, or a character indicating that the
couple wishes to dance the star tips.
9) Added small help button to the left of the student icon. Pressing
this button displays an explanation of a 'student'.
10) Disabled the 'Manually Set Next Tip' option.
List of Names:
1) Cosmetic changes.
2) Removed the 'View' button since this functionality can be done via
the 'Edit' button.
Main Window:
1) Window size and location is now retained between invocations.
Miscellaneous:
1) Lots of internal code clean up.
Open Tip:
1) Right-clicking the mouse within the window now invokes a popup menu
with option 'Set background picture...'. This allows a background
picture to be displayed in the open tip window.
Settings:
1) Cosmetic changes.
Static:
1) Cosmetic changes.
Statistics:
1) Cosmetic changes.
2) Fixed coloring bug in 'Square configuration(s)'.
Tip Display:
1) Font, Color, and Scaling:
a) Now displays the font name, size, bold and italic attributes
beneath the sample font.
b) Now shows the RGB (red, green, blue) intensity values beneath the
two color fields.
c) Removed the checkbox entitled 'Enable font, color, and scaling',
since font, color, and scaling are now always enabled.
d) Pattern frame:
i) Added 'None (color=white)' to disable color coding.
2) Added toolbar button:
a) Autoscale. This button is enabled only during the 'Couple' display.
When pressed, the program automatically scales the fontsize to
the largest possible font which still displays all couple names
in the visible portion of the grid.
