Hi everyone,
The beta version of the build 244 is ready.
Developer Version (4 Mb)
Standard Version (3 Mb)
This is a beta version, so be careful and make backups of your applications.
This version should address the issues that have been reported for Vista. The "Aero disabled" issue is not yet fixed though.
If you have any problem with this build, you can re-install the build 243 without reinstalling MMF2. And in this case, please let us know. ;)
Thank you for reading !
Yves.
List of bug fixes and new features in this version
- General: the dialog box that displays the warning about files stored in directories not relative to the app directory is now resizable.
- Frame editor: layers not unselected on Vista.
- Frame editor: cannot enter large numbers in position & size edit boxes if the property window is too small.
- Event editor: new OR operator for conditions. Warning: obviously any application using this new operator can't be loaded by previous builds of MMF2.
- Event editor: crash when editing a create object action if the parent object was a qualifier.
- Event editor: doing an Invert Selection with opened and closed groups and subgroups could crash.
- Event editor: object order in the event editor not copied when you cut/paste or drag & drop a frame.
- Event editor: scrollbar not working for large events (many conditions in a few events).
- Event editor: now supports more conditions in one single event (128), can display long lists of conditions and allows scrolling through them.
- Event List Editor: now supports more conditions and actions in one event line (128 conditions and 128 actions).
- Developer - DataGrid object : crash when you close an application that displays a modal sub-application with a DataGrid object.
- Developer - DataGrid object : application freezes until you move it if you press a key at start of a frame with a DataGrid object.
- Developer - Dialog Box object : spin control no longer attached to edit box after you close and reopen the dialog box, or go to another tab.
- Developer - Dialog Box object : new Find String and Find String Exact expressions for the List Box and Combo Box controls. These functions are similar to the ones of the List Box and Combo Box objects.
- Draw object : crash and incorrect fill/outline colors with the Ellipse tool.
- Popup Menu object : new Up/Down/Left/Right buttons in the setup box.
- Circular, Regular Polygon and Simple Ellipse movements : if a global object has one of these movements, any further changes made to that object don't spread to the other frames in the application.
- Sounds : sound filters not working if Data Execution Prevention was enabled.
- Debugger : floating point global values not properly displayed.
- Runtime : the AddBackdrop function now adds a new backdrop at the same position if the ink effect is different from "None" (if there is no ink effect, as with the previous builds no backdrop is added if the same backdrop already exists at the same position).
- Runtime : forced animation frame no longer reset when you force a new animation.
- Runtime : crash with recent objects (e.g. Download object) when using a file selector instead of an expression when defining a filename.
- Runtime : debugger window not correctly displayed on Vista.
- Runtime : artefacts around some images rotated in high quality mode.
- Runtime : possible memory leak in some cases after closing modal sub-applications.
- Stand-alone applications : when 2 stand-alone applications are launched at the same time, one of them could report missing extensions.
- Installer : when you "view" a file, the current directory is now set to the directory of the file.
- Installer : you can now run .MSI files via the Run commands.
- Installer : uninstaller doesn't work correctly if installed in a sub-directory of the install directory.
- Installer : shortcut folder in the Start menu not removed by the uninstaller on Vista.
