We started working on a function that will allow user to enter angles for the Stock pieces too. Also, the computed waste will have angles (currently the waste has 90 degrees at both ends).
Major internal code rewrite. This will help us to implement new features faster.
Fixed a bug which could show trim on a waste that is not at the edge of the sheet.
Fixed a bug which allowed previous optimizations to be re-run (from the Latest solutions menu) after the current solution is accepted. Now, the Latest solutions menu is disabled after Accept and is re-enabled after Undo.
Tabular information has been moved under a new button (called Tabular) in the main toolbar. Pieces and Cuts buttons from the Results 2D toolbar have been removed. The window contains tabular information about each piece, cut, waste of the current/selected solution.
Prices are displayed with 3 digits after comma.
Shows waste percents in Statistics.
Fixed a bug when sorting Result 1D table with fractional values.
New columns for Statistics tables: utilization percent, price of stock, waste percent.
Fixed a bug which does not reload some settings after the program is restarted.
Fixed a bug which shows an message error when the Length column is not set when importing from Excel/CSV. In such case no data are imported to Parts or Stock.
Fixed a bug affecting fractional numbers validation.
Shows the project file name in the Project | About window.
Show waste percent and price in the Results 1D table.
Fixed bug where the images/pattern for materials (sheets and edge bands) were not loaded if different from bmp format.
Fixed a bug which allowed previous optimizations to be re-run (from the Latest solutions menu) after the current solution is accepted. Now, the Latest solutions menu is disabled after Accept and is re-enabled after Undo.
Fixed a bug in Find optimal stock length procedure where the length of parts were not extracted before the search starts, thus no results were generated.
Show utilization percentage in the Find optimal stock length table because not all pieces are utilized if the minimal searched length is smaller than minimum piece length.
Fixed a bug which colored with gray the background of pieces cells when the bar height was small.
Fixed the position of waste text inside cell.
Add new options (in the Interface window) to set the number of digits after decimal separator for prices, wastes and percents.
Changed the window used to assign pictures to materials. From the new window the user can delete the picture assigned to a material. The old button for deleting picture (from the Materials window toolbar) has been removed.
Fixed a problem where some special characters (\ / : * ? ” < > |) in the material name prevented the image from being saved to disk. These special characters are now replaced by _ in the filename of the image assigned to a material. This solution is not perfect (since the same character replaces multiple invalid characters), but it is better than before … and will be improved in the near future.
Add options to show/hide various information on the graphical sheets (material name, stock label, utilization percentage, num pieces). These options can be accessed from the Additional button on the 2D results toolbar.
