[5224435]2
[9559c84b]3Changes in 1.4.21 (2026-05-??):
[5224435]4
[7808455]5* cavern:
[d53d336]6
[7808455]7  + Fix missing reports of unconnected survey stations.  We aim to report at
8    least one station in every unconnected piece of survey.  1.4.10 added code
9    to handle when a piece had been simplified to only anonymous stations, but
10    this was buggy and was only checking the first entry in the removed
11    traverse list.  We now check the full list, and if we somehow fail to find
[9559c84b]12    a neighbouring named station, we now report the anonymous station (we give
13    the filename and line number which is enough context by itself).  Reported
14    by Paweł Gogolak.
[d53d336]15
[7808455]16  + `*entrance` now also suppresses unused fixed point warnings when it appears
17    before the `*fix` (previously this only worked for `*entrance` after
[398244d]18    `*fix`).
[d53d336]19
[7808455]20  + `*fix` with SDs now sets the "fixed" flag on the station in the .3d file.
[d53d336]21
[7808455]22  + Pick better 3d file separator for Walls data (previously cavern would pick
23    `.` for the separator in a pure Walls dataset, even if it was used in
24    station names).  Walls uses `:` as a prefix separator, so now cavern takes
25    into account which characters are allowed in Walls station names when
26    picking the separator to use in the .3d file.  For a pure Walls dataset, it
27    will pick `:`, so Walls station names in the .3d file should match the
28    names as shown in Walls.  If a dataset mixes data in Walls format with
29    Survex and/or Compass data, then it's possible `:` is used in a Survex or
[9559c84b]30    Compass station name - if so a different separator will be chosen.
[5224435]31
[7808455]32  + The Walls manual says to represent underwater data using the combination of
33    `TAPE=SS` with `ORDER=DA` or `ORDER=AD`, so we now map this to Survex's
34    diving style.  Issue highlighted by a dataset from Darek Lubomski.
[5224435]35
[7808455]36  + In Walls data, downgrade the "Unknown command" error to a warning for some
37    invalid directives which Walls quietly accepts.  Issue highlighted by a
38    dataset from Darek Lubomski.
[5224435]39
[7808455]40  + In Walls data, `#note` and `#flags` are meant to suppress unused fixed
41    point warnings, but only did if they came after the `#fix`.  Also `#flags`
42    without any flags didn't suppress the warning but now does.
[5224435]43
[7808455]44  + In Walls data, the word `fix` in `#flags` no longer sets the "fixed" flag
45    in the .3d file - we now only set it for stations used in `#fix`.  This
46    seems a more logical approach, since `#flags` is just free-form text which
47    Walls itself doesn't ascribe particular semantics to.  (The word `entrance`
48    in `#flags` still sets the "entrance" flag since Walls lacks a way to
[398244d]49    explicitly mark entrances.)
[5224435]50
[7808455]51  + Check value after `TAPE=` in Walls data and give an error if it's not
52    valid.
[5224435]53
[b4103fa]54  + In Walls data, we now reject multi-component readings with a decimal point
55    in anything but the final component.  Some examples of invalid readings
56    which now give an error with cavern are `12.5i3`. `12.5:29`, `12.5:29:30`
57    and `12:29.5:30`.
58
59* aven/survexport:
60
61  + Allow exporting/not exporting anonymous stations.  The default is chosen as
[9559c84b]62    most appropriate for each export format.
[b4103fa]63
64  + Fix memory leak in PLT export.
65
66  + Fix memory leak and speed up SVG export.
67
[9559c84b]68* (Microsoft Windows version): Try to ensure output files are fully written to
69  disk before we close them.  Should fix #147, reported by Philip Schuchardt.
70
[7808455]71* Documentation:
[5224435]72
[9559c84b]73  + Clarify purpose of `*infer exports`.  Highlighted by Philip Sargent.
74
75  + Clarify `*infer plumbs` works for any angle units, not just degrees.
76
[7808455]77  + Say "directive" instead of "command" in Walls docs since this is the
78    terminology Walls uses.
79
80  + Document Walls filename case mismatch issue.  Issue highlighted by a
81    dataset from Darek Lubomski.
82
[b4103fa]83  + Document that the last official release of Walls uses an old IGRF version.
84
85  + Improve section on submitting documentation changes.
86
[7808455]87  + Minor improvements to wording.
88
[b4103fa]89  + HACKING.htm: autoconf 2.59 is the current minimum.
90
91* Test suite: Add test coverage for Walls compass/clino in mils.
92
[9559c84b]93* Adjust French translation not to translate "grads" when refering to the
94  keyword "grads" in a .svx file.
95
[398244d]96* Merge updates to Polish translation from Paweł Gogolak.
97
98* Merge updates to Russian translation from Vasily Vl. Suhachev.
[5224435]99
[b4103fa]100* (Linux version): survex.spec: We no longer provide this.  It doesn't work
101  with current Fedora because some dependencies have been renamed, which
102  suggests nobody is regularly using it, which isn't a surprise as there's
103  now a Fedora package of Survex.  Reported by Bill Gee.
104
[9559c84b]105* Fix warnings about old-style parameter lists in the imported getopt code.
106
[3cc22e4]107Changes in 1.4.20 (2026-03-04):
108
109* aven: The viewing volume now includes the vertical extent of terrain which
110  fixes problems with the terrain being clipped when there's an extreme
[d731218]111  vertical difference between the terrain and the cave.  Hopefully fixes #148,
112  reported by Chris Curry.
[3cc22e4]113
114* aven: Improve handling of the scale when reloading an updated version of the
115  .3d file already being viewed.
116
117* aven: Add missing shortcuts to Orientation menu and "Reverse Direction" menu
118  item.  Reported by echarlie's friend.
119
120* aven: Where possible use L for "Elevation" menu accelerator, which matches
121  the shortcut key.
122
123* cavern: Improve handling of Walls percentage gradient.  Support explicit
124  percentage override ('p' suffix) and fix handling of overriding percentage
125  gradient to specify a plumb.  Reported by echarlie on #survex.
126
127* cavern: Support d:m:s for Walls bearings and gradients.  Reported by echarlie
128  on #survex.
129
130* cavern: Add `gps` as alias for `position` team role.  See:
131  https://github.com/therion/therion/issues/709
132
133* cavern: Warn for no blank after token in *cartesian (another case related to
134  #135).
135
136* manual: Document N, S, E and W shortcut keys for aven.
137
138* manual: Mark up codes and tokens in tables which avoids them getting
139  word-wrapped and hyphenated.  It also means they now get rendered in the
140  tables the same way they are referred to in the text.
141
142* manual: Separate each block of *instrument examples.
143
144* manual: Consistently document versions where features were deprecated.
145
146* Eliminate out-of-date postal address from licensing information.  Direct
147  people who somehow didn't receive the licence text to a copy on the FSF
148  website instead.
149
[ca7bf5e]150Changes in 1.4.19 (2025-12-17):
[1ae719e]151
152* aven/survexport: Rework PLT export to use 2 character escapes for spaces
153  and other characters which aren't valid in Compass station names.  We were
154  using 3 character escapes, but that's unhelpful since Compass has a 12
155  character station name limit.
156
[ca7bf5e]157* cavern: The syntax of *instrument commands is now checked and a warning
158  issued for problems.  The information in the command is still not yet used.
159
[1ae719e]160* cavern: Improve description of --quiet option.  Reported by Wookey.
161
162* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer now always updates DLLs it
163  installs rather than skipping DLLs which declare the same version number.
164  This avoids problems when DLLs change in an upwardly but not downwardly
165  compatible way but keep the same version number.  It also means downgrading
166  now gives an install more like installing the older version from scratch
167  would.  Our DLLs are all private and installed into our own install directory
168  so there are no concerns with breaking other installed software.  Fixes #145.
169  Reported by Footleg and Juan Corrin.
170
171* Fill in some missing Czech translations.
172
173* Update unofficial Inno Setup translations for the installer.
174
175* We now require at least FFmpeg >= 3.2 to build Survex.  This version was
176  released in 2016 so should be easily available everywhere now.
177
178* (Microsoft Windows version): Drop workaround for wx-config --rescomp not
179  working as this has now been fixed in the mingw package of wxWidgets.
180
181* Test suite:
182
183  + Add test coverage for `*data normal` without `clino`.
184
[889f75e]185Changes in 1.4.18 (2025-11-04):
[f97d81e]186
187* aven: Fix "Enter" in search control to zoom to results.  This was broken
188  by the switch to wxSearchCtrl in 1.4.17.
189
[9af170f3]190* aven: Fix "Find stations" search box width with wxWidgets >= 3.2.7.  Patch
191  https://github.com/ojwb/survex/pull/15 from Thomas Holder.
192
193* aven: (Microsoft Windows version): Fix sizing of indicators (scalebar,
194  compass, clino, colour key) on HiDPI monitors.  Fixes #144, reported by Juan
195  Corrin.
196
[feedee2]197* aven/survexport: Set UTM zone and datum in exported Compass PLT.
198
[f97d81e]199* cavern: Avoid duplicate errors/warnings with unconnected data.  Since 1.4.10,
200  unconnected data is only a warning but that resulted in us running some
201  checks on the survey tree twice, which could result in duplicate
202  errors/warnings.
203
[feedee2]204* cavern: Fix parsing of hex digits in *set.  Hex digits a-f were incorrectly
205  being handled as 0-5, so 0x0a was byte 0 not byte 10.
206
[f97d81e]207* cavern: We now track the column as well as file:line where a station or
208  survey name was used, so diagnostics which use these locations now report
209  a column number too.
210
211* cavern: Show context if proj can't convert coords.  We only do this for .svx
212  files currently as it is more complex for Compass and Walls data.
213
[feedee2]214* cavern: Fix reported column for error for `-` for Walls tape field.
215  In this context, Walls requires 2 or more `-` to indicate an omitted field.
216
[2cca673a]217* cavern: Compass MAK file parsing improvements:
218
[8bf7831]219  + Comments are now skipped.  Previously a commented-out MAK file command
220    would still be interpreted by cavern, which was incorrect.
[2cca673a]221
[8bf7831]222  + Whitespace handling has been adjusted to more closely match Compass.
223
224  + Unknown commands are now warned about.  Compass seems to quietly ignore
225    unknown commands, but it seems helpful for cavern to report them as it
226    will help identify any bugs in Survex's parsing of MAK files, and any
227    new or undocumented MAK file commands which we don't support.  It can also
228    help detect typos in data entry.
[2cca673a]229
230  + We now skip to the closing `;` for unknown commands and commands we
[8bf7831]231    ignore as not relevant to us, whereas previously we're just skip the
232    initial character which gives the type of command and then look for
233    another command.  This doesn't seem to make any difference in practice as
234    none of these commands appear to be able to contain text which could be
235    interpreted as a different valid Compass MAK file command.
[2cca673a]236
[889f75e]237* (Microsoft Windows version): The toolchain we use to build this version
238  seems to have changed in an unhelpful way.  We've got the build working
239  again, but when aven is launched a black window opens first, then the
240  aven window opens over the top.  The black window stays around until
241  aven is closed.  This extra window doesn't really get in the way of using
242  aven, but it's not supposed to be there.  It doesn't seem to be due to a
243  change in the Survex code as the 1.2.17 build doesn't do this, but a
244  rebuild of 1.2.17 with just the minimum of build system changes does.
245  If you have suitable skills help fixing this would be much appreciated.
246
[2cca673a]247* (Microsoft Windows version): Use unlocked file I/O if available, like we
248  already do for Unix.  Unlocked file I/O can be much faster in some cases (we
249  don't need the locking as we don't do multithreaded file I/O).
250
251* (Microsoft Windows version): Fix compiler warning in wrapaven.c.
252
[889f75e]253* (Microsoft Windows version): Work around wx-config --rescomp no longer
254  working.  The mingw package of wxWidgets has started to return an empty
255  string here.  We don't support building with MSVC, so hardcoding `windres`
256  here isn't really a problem in practice.
257
[feedee2]258* Manual: Document that *set eol default includes x1A (Ctrl-Z) to provide
259  compatibility with old DOS text files (it always has done but was missing
260  from the documentation).
261
[f97d81e]262* Merge updates to Russian translation.
263
264* Add the start of a Czech translation.
265
266* Update unofficial Inno Setup translations for the installer.
267
268* Drop support for wxWidgets < 3.2.  It is starting to become hard to keep
269  everything working with 3.0.0 and the time and effort seems better directed
270  to other things.  The last 3.0.x release was 3.0.5.1, released 2020-05-02.
271  3.2.0 was released 2022-07-06 and it seems everywhere with wxWidgets packages
272  upgraded to 3.2.x some time ago.
273
[889f75e]274* Test suite:
275
276  + cavern.tst: Test more mixed line ending cases.
277
278  + Turn off tests involving aven and survexport on mingw, as we can no longer
279    seem to run these programs during the build.  Rebuilding the last commit
280    that worked now fails, so this is not due to a change in the Survex code.
281    There is no error message, but bash shows exit code 127 which means it
282    failed to run the command.
283
284  + Improve handling of VERBOSE in tests.  Previously VERBOSE showed output
285    from all testcases, even ones which passed.  Now we only show output from
286    testcases which fail for VERBOSE=1.  Other non-empty values of VERBOSE
287    continue to show all output for cavern.tst and smoke.tst, but have the same
288    effect as VERBOSE=1 for other tests.
289
290  + compare.tst: Fix to actually work, support --help, and allow comparing
291    cavern runs which fail.  This script is not run as part of the automated
292    tests but assists manually comparing two versions of cavern on the same
293    data which can be helpful for debugging and during development.
294
[1ddd621]295Changes in 1.4.17 (2025-03-20):
[c27e518]296
297* aven: Add support for exaggerating Z.  You can now set a Z scale factor
298  from 0.1 to 10.0 via a new widget on the toolbar.  Fixes #49.
299
[c505ae0]300* aven: The cavern log window now chooses foreground and background colours
[6144c07a]301  based on the desktop's light mode/dark mode setting.  Previously it
[1ddd621]302  used the default window background colour but always used black text, which
303  made it hard to read with a dark desktop theme.  (The wxWidgets API to detect
[70c8a8c]304  dark mode is new in 3.2, so if built with wxWidgets 3.0 then we assume
305  light mode.)
[6144c07a]306
[c27e518]307* aven: The station search feature now uses the standard search
308  widget on GTK 3.6 or later and on macOS.  There's now a placeholder
309  text shown when there's no search to make it clearer what this
310  widget is for.
311
[6144c07a]312* aven: There's currently a cavern bug where it can fail to identify all
313  traverses which are not involved in loop closure, which results in the .3d
314  file contains error information for them (unfortunately this seems tricky to
315  fully fix).  This error information is always zero, so as a workaround aven
316  attempts to detect these so that "colour by error" shows them as "not in
317  loop".  This workaround previously only checked for E being zero, but now
318  H and V are both also required to be zero.  This should help avoid some very
319  low error traverses being incorrectly treated as "not in loop", although in
320  practice I've not yet found a real world case where this actually makes a
321  difference.
322
[c27e518]323* aven: Fix the output encoding of `aven --help`, `--version`, etc.
324  Previously these were always encoded as UTF-8 which is usually right
325  on a modern system, but the terminal could be using a different
326  encoding.
327
328* aven: Reduce startup overhead a little when the terminal has a UTF-8
329  locale (which is now the default on most Linux distros).
330
331* cavern: Fix an "assertion failed" error in some situations when
332  equating to a fixed point.  This bug was introduced by changes
333  in 1.4.13.  Fixes #143, reported by Juan Corrin.
334
335* cavern: The syntax of *copyright commands is now checked and a warning
336  issued for problems.  The information in the command is still not yet used.
337
338* cavern: The syntax of *team commands is now checked and a warning
339  issued for problems.  The information in the command is still not yet used.
340
341* cavern: Stop reporting node stats.  These are kind of interesting, but
342  with the widespread use of Disto-X and similar devices which can easily
343  shoot multiple splay legs from each station means the number of larger order
344  nodes has increased and this information is now quite verbose and any utility
345  it had has substantially declined.  If these statistics are still wanted then
346  they could make a reappearance in the future in aven, with splays excluded
347  when counting the number of legs at each station.  Fixes #86, reported by
348  Wookey.
349
350* cavern: Fix wrong "unused fixed point" warning with *solve.
351
352* cavern: Fix double counting of stations which are referenced both before and
353  after *solve.
354
355* cavern: Suppress loop and component counts if *solve is used.  Our component
356  count was often wrong in this case but this looks very hard to fix.  These
357  counts are not vital so better to omit than report wrong values.
358
359* cavern: The "Equating two equal fixed points" warning now lists the
360  stations on the same order as they are in the `.svx` file which
361  seems clearer.
362
363* Speed up reading and writing of .3d files.  The time to read a large .3d file
364  and just count the stations and legs was more than halved by this change.
365
366* Simplify handling of errors loading the messages file.  The error
367  messages for this case are now stored as separate ASCII strings in
368  the executables which reduces the startup overhead a little as we
369  no longer need to scan them and potentially reencode them.
370
371* img library: The img struct's filename_opened member was always NULL when
372  used outside of Survex (and set but never actually used inside of Survex)
373  so it has been removed.  If you are referencing it in your code then instead
374  use the filename you passed to img_open_survey() when opening the file.
375
[6144c07a]376* Documentation: Add details of warning about future dates in *date.
377
[c27e518]378* Documentation: Added new manual chapter on the img library.
379
380* Documentation: Improve comments document API in img.h.
381
[6144c07a]382* Testsuite: Add proper test coverage for `*ref`.
383
384* Merge updates to Russian translation from Vasily Vl. Suhachev.
385
386* Portability: Eliminate unintended use of a C++17 feature (static_assert
[c27e518]387  with only one argument).
388
389* Portability: Avoid compiler warnings/errors in getopt code by properly
390  declaring getenv().
391
[a6a956a]392Changes in 1.4.16 (2025-02-21):
393
394* aven: Improve "Colour by Survey".  Surveys whose names only differ in the
395  final character tended to get visually similar colours (often
396  indistinguishable), but now should get very different colours.  Reported by
397  Eric C. Landgraf and Patrick Warren.
398
399* aven: Add "Find" item to right-click menu on survey tree which triggers a
400  search for the survey or station that was right-clicked on which highlights
401  with a yellow blob on each station, like double-clicking used to before
402  1.2.36.  Requested by Patrick Warren.
403
404* cavern: Fix calculation of convergence which could incorrectly give zero
405  with some PROJ versions < 9.3.0.  Unclear exactly which versions are
406  affected, but seen with PROJ 8.2 and can't affect PROJ >= 9.3.0.  Reported by
407  Eric C. Landgraf.
408
409* cavern: Report approximate true grid convergence range which provides a way
410  to assess if the representative location(s) specified by `*declination auto`
411  are suitable.  Fixes #141, reported by Eric C. Landgraf
412
413* cavern: Support Compass 'C' shot flag.  In Compass this causes flagged legs
414  to not be subject to loop closure.  Survex now sets the SDs of such legs to
415  1mm, so flagged legs can still move slightly during loop closure.  Previously
416  Survex ignore this flag entirely.
417
418* Document Microsoft Windows version requirements.
419
420* Enable SSE2 by default on 32-bit x86.  Intel CPUs without SSE2 were
421  discontinued ~18 years ago so it seems very unlikely anyone is actually still
422  using one for Survex.  We keep hitting testcase failures due to excess
423  precision from 387 FP instructions, and the time spent adjusting testcases to
424  avoid these would be better spent on new features, etc.
425
426* Tighten up charset name parsing a little.
427
428* Merge updates to Russian translation from Vasily Vl. Suhachev.
429
430* Various minor improvements to documentation.
431
432* Various minor improvements to test coverage.
433
[3ca3814]434Changes in 1.4.15 (2024-12-24):
435
436* aven: Avoid infinite redraw loop if GDAL gives an error loading geodata to
437  overlay.
438
439* aven: Turn off full-screen mode bodges when running on macOS 10.7 or later.
440  Fixes #110
441
442* aven/survexport: (Microsoft Windows version): Enable GDAL support so you
443  can now overlay geodata (in aven) and export shapefiles.
444
445* cavern: Remove now-bogus assertion which can fire when there's a survey not
446  connected to any fixed points (since 1.4.10 made unconnected data a warning
447  instead of an error).  Reported by Philip Balister.
448
449* (Microsoft Windows version): Strip debug data from .exe and .dll files which
450  reduces the installer size by around 5%.
451
452* Testsuite: Normalise -0.00 in DXF bounds too to avoid possible test failures
453  on x86.
454
[7acaf87]455Changes in 1.4.14 (2024-12-11):
456
457* aven/survexport: Add support for exporting shapefiles.  This requires GDAL so
458  currently isn't enabled in the Microsoft Windows build.  Thanks to Eric C.
459  Landgraf for testing.  Fixes #87.
460
461* cavern: If *date with just year is followed by a blank, cavern expects a date
462  range and gives an error if another date doesn't follow.  Bug was introduced
463  in 1.4.13.
464
465* aven/cavern: Use ′ and ″ for feet and inches.
466
467* Documentation: Add some details on how to handle Toporobot "serie" station
468  naming.
469
[07e129c]470* Updates to Bulgarian, Hungarian, Russian and Slovak translations.
[7acaf87]471
472* Testsuite: Adjust lollipop testcase to pass on i386 where excess precision
473  was changing which station was reported as the southernmost of multiple
474  candidate stations).
475
[baf03ba]476Changes in 1.4.13 (2024-12-01):
[91f3c4c]477
478* aven:
479
480  + Don't show crosses on anonymous stations since they just clutter up the
481    display (especially for anonymous splays).  Suggested by Andrew Atkinson.
482
483  + Fix 1.4.10 regression in plotting of station names.  Each anonymous station
484    was blocking out a small rectangle which no actual station name could
485    overlap.  Reported by Špela Borko.
486
487  + Reduced start-up time by only initialising GDAL if we have overlays to
488    show.
489
490  + (Microsoft Windows version): Avoid recurring "GDAL support not enabled in
491    this build" message box.  This message is now only shown once if you try to
492    add an overlay.  Reported by Špela Borko.
493
494* cavern:
495
[baf03ba]496  + Update to use v14 of the IGRF model for calculating declinations.
497    This was issued in November 2024 and should give slightly more accurate
498    declinations for surveys made since 2015.  Fixes #137.
499
[91f3c4c]500  + The component count was wrong in some cases, and we calculate the number
501    of loops using this component count, so the loop count would also be wrong
502    by the same amount in these cases.
503
[282afeb]504  + The component count and loop count are now reported when there are
505    unconnected survey stations.
506
[54a3adc]507  + *date now supports ISO format dates.  Fixes #96, reported by Milosch.
[baf03ba]508
[54a3adc]509  + *date now supports date types "surveyed" and "explored" (existing usage
[baf03ba]510    without an explicit type is interpreted as "surveyed").
511
[91f3c4c]512  + If the output directory isn't writable or doesn't exist we would complain
513    that we can't create the .err file - now we try to create the .3d file
514    first so complain about that instead which seems more helpful.  Reported by
515    Eric C. Landgraf.
516
517  + When inventing a fixed point we now avoid picking a fixed point which is
518    only attached to nosurvey legs if there's another option.  The code was
519    already meant to do this but it was buggy and we lacked a testcase for this
520    situation.
521
522  + Survey network reduction now finds some delta-star opportunities which were
523    being overlooked.  This allows more complicated networks to be reduced
524    further so fewer and/or smaller matrices need solving, which is faster.
525
526  + Survey network reduction now handles a "lollipop" with a fixed stick end
527    specially which is a little bit faster.  A more visible consequence is
528    fewer "Solving one equation..." messages when solving a complex survey
529    network.
530
531  + Survey network reduction now makes use of articulating legs to split up the
532    problem a little more, so we will often now solve more but smaller matrices
533    which should be faster.
534
535  + Assigning matrix row numbers now identifies equated stations in a slightly
536    more efficient way.
537
[baf03ba]538* dump3d: Provide a way to get ISO format dates output.
539
540* Documentation:
541
542  + Improve documentation of *date in the manual.  When a partial date is
543    specified (just a year, or a year and month only) the documentation claimed
544    the centre of that year or month is used but actually this case is treated
545    as a date range covering the whole year or month (respectively).  The end
546    result is effectively the same as what was previously documented though
547    since the centre of a date range is used as the date for calculating
548    automatic declinations and is the date used by aven.
549
[91f3c4c]550* Test suite:
551
552  + Adjust hpglexport testcase to avoid i386 excess precision causing one of
553    the HPGL coordinates to differ by one from its value calculated without
554    excess precision.
555
556* Assorted translation updates.
557
[b9c665b]558Changes in 1.4.12 (2024-10-23):
559
560* aven:
561
562  + (Microsoft Windows version): Geodata overlays are (hopefully temporarily)
563    no longer available in the pre-built version of Survex installed by the
564    Microsoft Windows installer.  We use the GDAL library to load them and
565    there's a hard to debug problem during DLL initialisation somewhere in its
566    dependency tree.  If you really need geodata overlays, the 1.4.9 installer
567    still works.  Thanks to Wookey for extensive testing to investigate the
568    problem, and to everyone else who reported this.
569
570* cavern:
571
572  + A leg with the same station as from and to is now only a warning in
573    Compass data.  Compass itself seems to quietly ignore such legs, but
574    they seem worth warning about.  In native Survex data this is still
575    an error.
576
577  + Short survey and station names are now stored without an extra memory
578    allocation.  On a 64-bit platform (most modern computers) we can store
579    name components up to 7 characters in this way; on a 32-bit platform
580    up to 3 characters.  On a large dataset which needs large matrices
581    solving this reduces cavern's memory usage by 3.5MB (~4.5%).  It's
582    also fractionally faster (but only ~0.05% which is not normally even
583    measurable).
584
585  + Assigning matrix row numbers to stations is now faster and allocates
586    less memory.
587
588* (Microsoft Windows version): The Microsoft Windows installer is now
589  named `survex-microsoft-windows-1.4.12.exe`.  The old name was
590  `survex-win32-1.4.11.exe` but the "win32" is now misleading as it's been a
591  64-bit build since 1.4.9.  Reported by Wookey.
592
593* Testsuite:
594
595  + dump3d.tst: Add tests of img library's survey filtering.
596
597  + cavern.tst: Normalise `-0.00` to `0.00` in JSON test output before
598    comparing with expected output.  We can get -0.00 on x86 due to excess
599    precision.
600
601* img library:
602
603  + Survey filtering now works correctly for files which use a survey level
604    separator other than `.`.  Patch https://github.com/ojwb/survex/pull/14
605    from Thomas Holder.
606
607  + Reading a v7 or earlier .3d format extended elevation with survey filtering
608    was failing to set is_extended_elevation.
609
[0249518]610Changes in 1.4.11 (2024-08-14):
[92debc5]611
612* aven:
613
614  + Add imperial scales for export and printing.  Fixes #132, reported by Eric
615    C. Landgraf.
616
617* aven/survexport:
618
619  + HPGL export now uses pen 2 for splays and pen 3 for surface legs.  Partly
620    addresses #60.
621
622  + HPGL export now supports scaling (previous the scale was always
623    1:40000).
624
[0249518]625  + KML export now distinguishes surface legs and splays using different
626    line styles.  Partly addresses #60.
627
[92debc5]628  + Remove Skencil export support.  The last release of Skencil was in 2005.
629    There was an attempt to revive the project in 2010, but that didn't lead to
630    another release and seems to have petered out.  No current Linux distro (or
631    other package system) seems to have Skencil packages, and the current git
632    version still appears to require Python 2 which is being phased out.
633
634* cavern:
635
636  + Support `*data ignore` to allow ignoring a block of survey data lines.
637    Closes #114, reported by Alastair Gott.
638
639  + Report error for bad final reading in `*data` command (previously such a
640    bad reading was quietly ignored).
641
642  + If the survey in `*end` doesn't match that in `*begin` the location of
643    that `*begin` is now reported as well - the second message here is new
644    for example:
645
646     badbegin.svx:6:8: error: Survey name doesn't match BEGIN
647      *end   bar
648             ^~~
649     badbegin.svx:4:13: info: Corresponding BEGIN was here
650      *begin      foo
651                  ^~~
652
653  + Now shows a context line for a reading which was on the previous line,
654    which can happen for interleaved data styles.
655
656  + Warn when a token is not followed by a blank, comment or end of line.
657    This is an unintentional tokenisation oddity which has been present
658    for a really long time.  We don't want to break files that rely on this
659    (even if they likely only do accidentally) so emit a warning rather than
660    an error.
661
662    This warning can easily be eliminated by adding a space where indicated,
663    which will work with old and new Survex versions.  Fixes #135.
664
665  + Errors and warnings which report an unexpected token now report a
666    contiguous span of letters and numbers rather than just letters in cases
667    where a number can't follow (which is the majority of cases).
668
669  + If `*require` isn't satisfied, the `*require` line is now shown for
670    context (especially helpful if there's a comment after the command noting
671    the reason for the requirement, as we now suggest in the manual).
672
673  + `*require` version parsing improved - spaces are no longer tolerated in
674    a version number and trailing junk after the version number is now
675    handled more consistently.
676
677  + Fixed several situations in which the highlighting of the context for a
678    diagnostic was off by a small number of columns.
679
680  + Optimise building of matrix during network solving.
681
[0249518]682  + Enhancements and fixes to reading Walls WPJ and SRV files:
[92debc5]683
684    - After reporting an error for an unsupported datum, we now set the datum
685      to WGS84 to prevent triggering further errors from code which tries to
686      use the datum.
687
688    - Parse Walls WPJ commands as alphanumeric rather than alphabetic tokens,
689      which better matches how Walls parses them.  This only makes a difference
690      in the error message when we don't recognise a WPJ command.
691
692* Documentation:
693
694  + Note `feet` are international feet and how to select a different
695    definition in `*units` docs.
696
697  + Document `grads` are also known as "neugrads" and "gons" in `*units` docs.
698
699* Assorted translation updates.
700
701* testsuite:
702
703  + Fix bug in normalisation of `-0.00` to `0.00` in DXF output before
704    comparing with expected output.
705
706* Update and improve vim syntax highlighting:
707
708  + `*cartesian` added
[0249518]709
[92debc5]710  + `*data ignore` added
[0249518]711
[92debc5]712  + `mils` units now highlighted as deprecated
[0249518]713
[92debc5]714  + `UP` and `DOWN` are no longer highlighted anywhere in a command
[0249518]715
[92debc5]716  + `U`, `D`, `LEVEL`, `-V`, `+V`, `.`, `..` and `...` now highlighted in data
717    lines
[0249518]718
[92debc5]719  + Repeated `NOT` in `*flags` is now highlighted as an error
[0249518]720
[92debc5]721  + Fix error highlighting for unquoted `*include` to not flag an error just
722    because there's a comment after the filename
[0249518]723
[92debc5]724  + Fix error highlighting for unquoted `*include` to work when there's
725    whitespace between `*` and `include`
726
[63a37be]727Changes in 1.4.10 (2024-08-05):
[6082f2a]728
729* aven:
730
731  + Use a fixed rotation rate for rotating the view to North, South, East or
732    West (shortcut keys `N`, `S`, `E` and `W`).  We were using the same
733    variable rate which auto-rotation does for this case, but really these are
734    just animations to help the user see the change that's happening, so a
735    fixed rate makes more sense (and is what tilting to plan or elevation
736    does).  The new fixed rotation rate for this is double what the default
737    variable rate was, which means the longest rotation (e.g. from S to N)
738    takes 3 seconds rather than 6.
739
740* aven/survexport:
741
742  + Fix syntax of shot flags in PLT export (incorrect since introduced in
743    1.4.6).
744
745  + Map Survex duplicate flag to `L` shot flag in PLT export.
746
747  + Invent shorter names for anonymous stations in PLT export.  The PLT file
748    format documentation says station names can be up to 12 characters, but the
749    ones we generated were longer than this which is liable to trip up
750    consumers of this format that only allow for the specified length.
751    We now generate names using a sequential counter with a two character
752    prefix so they should fit in the 12 character limit for any cave
753    survey.
754
755  + 3D export now includes all leg and station flags.
756
757* cavern:
758
759  + Unconnected survey stations are now handled as a warning, whereas
760    previously this was an error.  This is necessary when processing Walls data
761    where it seems having hanging surveys is the norm, and Walls itself only
762    warns about them.
763
764    The support is also enabled for native Survex data since it allows viewing
765    the connected parts of a survey with missing connections without having to
766    comment out the unconnected parts (and then remember to fully uncomment
767    once connections are surveyed).  Fixes #16, reported by Duncan Collis.
768
769    Currently the component count and loop count are not shown in this case.
770
771  + Avoid multiple reports of an unconnected survey station.  This could happen
772    in some cases where a group of equated stations had more than four legs
773    connected to it.
774
775  + Fix missing report of unconnected survey station.  We aim to report at
776    least one station in every unconnected piece of survey, but if a piece had
777    been simplified to a single station which was anonymous (e.g. a disto splay
778    shot) then we wouldn't report anything for that piece.  Now we find the
779    traverse that was attached to it and report the next station along that
780    traverse.
781
782  + Report file and line location each unconnected survey station.
783
784  + This warning now says either `*entrance` or `*export` depending on which
785    it actually was:
786
787      Station "bar.1" referred to by *entrance or *export but never used
788
789  + Fix several cases of mishandling comments without blanks before them:
790
791    - After an anonymous station.
792
793    - After an ignored reading.  The `ignore` would incorrectly also skip the
794      comment character and any characters which followed up to the next blank
795      or end of line.
796
797    - In a `*alias` command.
798
799    - Diagnostic highlighting could continue into a comment.
800
801  + New `*cartesian` command which supports different orientations of
802    `cartesian` style data.
803
[b49bd46]804  + Anonymous stations are now supported in `cartesian` style data.
805
[6082f2a]806  + `*fix a reference` (without any coordinates) is now an error.  The
807    `reference` token provides a way to have a list of known fixed points which
808    are not expected to all be currently used, while omitting the coordinates
809    provides a way to specify a point to arbitrarily fix rather than rely on
810    cavern picking one.  Allowing both together doesn't really make sense.
811
812  + Improve check for 180° backclino to suppress the warning about a compass
813    reading on a plumbed leg (introduced in 1.4.8) to allow a small tolerance
814    on the value.  Previously the check wasn't working on x86 Linux for
815    example.
816
[b49bd46]817  + When showing a line as the location of a diagnostic we now render any
818    tab character as a single space which means the `^~~~~` highlight length
819    is now correct even when the highlighted part contains tabs.  This only
820    affects use from a terminal as the highlight was already correctly handled
821    when viewing the log in aven.
822
[9fcaec0]823  + Enhancements and fixes to reading Walls WPJ and SRV files (thanks to Eric
824    C. Landgraf and Joe for a lot of great feedback from testing with large
825    datasets):
[6082f2a]826
[b49bd46]827    - The `RECT=` option is now fully supported.
[6082f2a]828
829    - Fix `#DATE` with an active `.REF` to act like `DECL=`.  This matches what
[9fcaec0]830      the documentation says and what Walls seems to actually do.
[6082f2a]831
832    - Allow completely omitting the clino on a wall shot (with `ORDER=DAV` or
[9fcaec0]833      `ORDER=ADV`).
[6082f2a]834
835    - Resolve WPJ `.PATH` relative to innermost containing book.
836
837    - Handle an empty Walls station name.  Walls allows a station with an
838      explicit prefix to have an empty name, e.g. `PEP:`.  The Walls
839      documentation doesn't mention this, though it also doesn't explicitly say
840      the name can't be empty.  This quirk seems unlikely to be intentionally
841      used and Survex doesn't allow an empty station name, so we issue a
842      warning and use the name `empty name` (which has a space in, so can't
843      collide with a real Walls station name which can't contain a space) - so
[9fcaec0]844      `PEP:` in Walls becomes `PEP.empty name` in Survex.
[6082f2a]845
[9fcaec0]846    - Flag stations with explicit Walls prefix as exported.
[6082f2a]847
848    - Fix setting empty Walls macro with a comment right after it.
849
850    - Walls quietly ignores junk after the numeric argument in `TYPEAB=`,
851      `TYPEVB=`, `UV=`, `UVH=`, and `UVV=`.  This seems to be an undocumented
[9fcaec0]852      feature/bug so Survex emits a warning and skips the junk.
[6082f2a]853
854    - After an unknown Walls option we now process the rest of the line.
855      Previously we were skipping the rest of the line.
856
857    - We no longer skip the rest of the line after a bad Walls `ORDER=` option.
858
859    - Correct the reported column for some Walls option diagnostics.
860
[9fcaec0]861    - Support explicit units on Walls clino readings.
[6082f2a]862
863    - Allow `#` in Walls station names.  This is explicitly documented as not
864      allowed, but the documentation doesn't match the implementation and `#`
[9fcaec0]865      is present in some real-world data.
[6082f2a]866
867    - Improve handling of Walls `RESTORE` error.  Highlight the position in the
868      line and don't skip the rest of the line.
869
870    - Don't warn about `INCH=` with a zero argument since that's the one case
871      of it we do handle!
872
873    - Fix not to skip the rest of the line after Walls `INCH=` option.
874      We currently don't support `INCH=` so we warn about it, but we were
875      skipping the rest of the line, then trying to read and discard the
[9fcaec0]876      argument to `INCH=` which gave an error.
[6082f2a]877
878    - Relax handling of Walls `CASE=`.  It's not documented, but Walls32.exe
[9fcaec0]879      quietly treats unknown values as "Mixed".
[6082f2a]880
[1f5f8c1]881    - Support DM and DMS format for latitude and longitude in Walls `#FIX`,
882      e.g. `W97:43.875` and `W97:43:52.5` .
883
884    - Treat a zero length leg with finite variance like a Survex `*equate`.
885
[b49bd46]886    - Apply Walls variance overrides to survey legs.
[1f5f8c1]887
888    - The optional instrument and target heights are now parsed, but their
889      values are currently ignored.
890
891    - The delimiters around LRUD data are now parsed, but the LRUD data between
892      them is currently ignored.
893
[5bf6f21]894    - If a `#SEGMENT` value looks like a set of Compass shot flags (i.e.
895      consists only of upper case characters from `CLPSX`, optionally prefixed
896      with a `/` or `\`) then we interpret them as Compass shot flags (except
897      that `X` is mapped the same way as `L`).  This is apparently a common way
898      to use `#SEGMENT`, and unlikely to be triggered accidentally.
[b49bd46]899
[9fcaec0]900    - Avoid a doubled directory separator when building Walls path names.
901
[6082f2a]902* documentation:
903
904  + The manual has been converted from DocBook to reStructured Text.  The
[1f5f8c1]905    plain-text format is much easier for making changes, and for users the
906    output from sphinx looks nicer and has extra features (like built-in
907    "Quick search" in the HTML output).
[6082f2a]908
909    The plain text version of the manual is no longer generated.  Sphinx can
910    produce one but the .rst sources actually seem more readable for anyone
911    wanting to read the manual in plain text.
912
913    The extra targets to generate the manual in RTF and PostScript
914    have been dropped as I doubt they are still used (we stopped
915    providing them on the website years ago).  They could probably be
916    reinstated if there's a demand for them.
917
[63a37be]918    The conversion was partly automated followed by a full pass over the
[6082f2a]919    result fixing issues with the automated conversion.  We took the
920    opportunity to also review the content and update or remove out of
921    date and other incorrect information, and to reorder some of the content.
922
[c4366d6]923  + Document all the statistics in the `.err` file
924
[6082f2a]925  + Document PLT export.
926
[b49bd46]927  + Minor improvements to --help output
928
[6082f2a]929  + The HTML version of the 1.4.9 manual was missing the Walls chapter
930    and had messed up paging links around it (due to the new CMAP chapter
931    accidentally also being given the filename `walls.htm`).  Reported by Eric
932    C. Landgraf.
933
934  + Document we don't enforce Walls' station or prefix length limits.
935
936  + Document handling of Walls `#NOTE`.
937
938  + Fix documentation of Walls `FLAG=` which is correctly handled, not skipped.
939
[b49bd46]940  + Document how to compare Walls and Survex output via Shapefile.
941
942  + Document how to suppress unused fixed point warning in Walls SRV.
[6082f2a]943
944* testsuite:
945
946  + Add testcase for Walls `#units order=da`.
947
948  + Add expected output for more testcases
949
950  + Add testcase for exporting .3d files.
951
[b49bd46]952  + Normalise `-0.00` to `0.00` in DXF output before comparing to avoid bogus
953    test failures due to excess precision on x86 when using 387 FP
954    instructions.
955
956  + Add test of DXF export with full coordinates.
[6082f2a]957
958* translations:
959
960  + Diagnostics can now use positional arguments which sometimes allows a
[63a37be]961    more natural word order in a translated message.
[6082f2a]962
[532ff49]963Changes in 1.4.9 (2024-07-04):
[c009b32a]964
965* aven:
966
[532ff49]967  + Support showing geodata overlays in Aven.  We use the GDAL library to load
968    the data, so this should work for any format which GDAL supports so long as
969    it can be read from the filing system and is geo-referenced vector data -
970    see https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/index.html for a list.  Currently the
971    dialog to select a file defaults to showing GPX, KML, GeoJSON and shape
[c505ae0]972    files - set the filter to "All Files" to choose other formats.
[c009b32a]973
974  + Reimplement display of cavern output.  The old version turned the log into
975    HTML and displayed it using wxHtmlWindow, but that adds a lot of overhead
976    and is especially inefficient if there are many diagnostics - cavern could
977    finish almost instantly yet aven could take many seconds to process the
978    output.  The new version renders directly from the log data.  It should
979    have most of the features from before - the only missing feature I'm
980    currently aware of is that you can't now select and copy text from the log
981    window, which wxHtmlWindow provided for free.  If people miss this feature,
982    we could add it to the new implementation.
983
[532ff49]984  + (Microsoft Windows version): Clicks in the cavern log window which load
985    files into an editor now protect the filename if it starts with a dash
986    to prevent it being interpreted as a command line option.  We already
987    do this for other platforms, but weren't on Microsoft Windows on the
988    assumption that it isn't needed because the filenames will be fully
989    qualified, but that may not be the case if aven if run by hand from the
990    command line or from some other launcher.
991
[c009b32a]992* cavern:
993
994  + Add support for processing Walls format survey data (.SRV and .WPJ files).
995    This support is somewhat experimental but at a point where it seems useful
996    to make it easier for people to try out.  See the manual for a list of
997    known shortcomings.  Thanks to Eric C. Landgraf for a lot of testing and
998    encouragement.
999
[26bdac6]1000  + Fix bug with Compass DAT diving data.  If a survey uses the depth gauge
1001    then since 1.4.6 we set its style to "diving", but we weren't clearing that
[7ff9e18]1002    so all surveys after that in the same DAT file were also set as "diving".
[26bdac6]1003
1004  + When parsing of Compass DAT files we report errors in more cases if the
1005    input doesn't conform to the format we expect, rather than potentially
1006    quietly misinterpreting the data.
1007
[c009b32a]1008  + *entrance now suppresses "Unused fixed point" warning.  This warning is
1009    intended to catch typos, which is much less likely for a station named
1010    twice.  It's also reasonable to use only *fix and *entrance on a station at
1011    the entrance of an unsurveyed cave.
1012
1013  + Highlight plumbed clino readings fully in diagnostics.  Now the full reading
1014    is highlighted instead of just the first character.
1015
1016  + Report location of previous fix after "already fixed" error/warning.
1017
1018  + Use "info" diagnostic category for "Originally entered here" message.  This
1019    is more logical as the original *begin isn't something to be warned about,
1020    only the reentering is.  This was only a warning before because we didn't
1021    used to have "info" diagnostics.
1022
1023  + Use "info" diagnostic category for message about not reporting further
1024    uses of a deprecated feature.  Previously this was a warning, but the newer
1025    "info" category is more appropriate here.
1026
1027  + The message about inventing a fixed point is now an "info" diagnostic which
1028    allows us to report a location which is where that station is defined,
1029    which may be useful to the user.
1030
1031  + Make highlighting position in error reporting more robust.  We no longer
1032    try to highIight if we calculate a negative column offset, when previously
1033    we would print billions of spaces.  As far as I know this has never
1034    happened in a released version.
1035
[532ff49]1036  + Error messages which report the program name now remove any ".exe" suffix.
1037    This helps the testsuite by making the expected output the same
1038    cross-platform, but also seems slightly nicer for users.
1039
1040* dump3d:
1041
1042  + The timestamp reported by DATE_NUMERIC is now printed portably.  Previously
1043    we were assuming that a time_t is the same size as a long int, which is not
1044    true on all platforms.
1045
[c009b32a]1046* manual:
1047
1048  + (Microsoft Windows version): Update information about installation
1049    with/without admin rights.
1050
[26bdac6]1051  + Summarise support for reading CMAP data and its assumptions and
1052    limitations.
1053
[c009b32a]1054  + Mention Compass, Walls and CMAP support in the importing data howto
1055    section.
1056
1057  + Drop mention of Rosetta Stal from the manual.  The referred to link from
1058    our website was removed in 2015 because Rosetta Stal hadn't been updated
1059    for 13.5 years at that point.  Now the domain it was available from has
1060    lapsed and is a domain squatter "for sale" page.
1061
[fa2c485d]1062* img library:
1063
1064  + The coordinates in CMAP data are in feet but we were dividing rather
1065    than multiplying by the conversion factor to get metres so all
1066    coordinates were about 10.76 times too large.
1067
[26bdac6]1068  + Stations in CMAP "station" variant XYZ files are now flagged as
1069    underground (as they always have been for "shot" variant XYZ files).
1070
1071  + When reading CMAP XYZ files, we no longer emit duplicate img_LABEL for
1072    stations in loops.
1073
1074  + A CMAP XYZ file without a survey title is now handled correctly (this was
1075    reporting a bogus "Out of memory" error).
1076
[532ff49]1077  + The img.h header now defines constants IMG_VERSION_SURVEX_POS, etc for the
1078    values reported in the version field for non-.3d formats.
1079
1080  + (Microsoft Windows version): Workaround limitation of Microsoft's C
1081    library so we handle dates before 1970 in Compass PLT files, CMAP XYZ
1082    files, and older format .3d files.  Previously these were reported
1083    as "unknown date".
1084
1085* We now support overriding the location of support files by setting the
1086  SURVEXLIB environment variable.  We no longer look at the srcdir
1087  environment variable for this.
1088
1089* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer is now created automatically
1090  on Github actions, which has required a few changes.  It now packages a
1091  64-bit build, and is created with Innosetup 6.3.2 which no longer supports
1092  Vista.  The installer is also now significantly larger, which is mostly
1093  because we now need to include a large number of DLLs, most of which are
1094  dependencies of the mingw64 FFmpeg and GDAL packages.
1095
1096* (Microsoft Windows version): If the directory where we expect the PROJ
1097  support files to be does not exist for some reason we now avoid triggering
1098  a segmentation fault in PROJ.
1099
[c009b32a]1100* Build system:
1101
1102  + The GDAL library is now required to build Survex.
1103
[532ff49]1104  + (Microsoft Windows version): The probe for GL and GLU libraries now also
1105    checks for Microsoft's non-standard library names.
1106
1107  + Correct configure --help output for --enable-werror for which the default
1108    is actually "no" rather than "maintainer-mode".
1109
1110* testsuite:
1111
1112  + aven.tst: Skip a testcase when running on mingw as it seems to hang there.
1113    We already skip this testcase on macos for what appears to be the same
1114    problem.
1115
1116  + Fix comparison of output to work on platforms using DOS line endings.
1117
[ff1859c]1118Changes in 1.4.8 (2024-04-23):
1119
1120* cavern:
1121
1122  + The warning for a compass reading on a plumbed leg was already suppressed
1123    for a compass or backcompass reading of 0, but is now also suppressed for a
1124    backcompass of 180° (or equivalent) which seems to be common in some Compass
1125    datasets, but also seems sensible generally.  Thanks to Simeon Warner for
1126    sharing some data which triggered such warnings.
1127
1128  + The error for when a survey and station use the same name is now also
1129    emitted in the case where a name was used first for a station, and then as
1130    a survey on an explicitly prefixed name.  Closes
1131    https://github.com/ojwb/survex/pull/4, reported by Thomas Holder.
1132
1133  + The error for when a survey and station use the same name now highlights
1134    the problematic name within the line shown for context.
1135
1136  + Fix the reported token string reported by some errors with readings.  This
1137    happened to work on at least x86-64 Linux, but the code was invalid and
1138    failed on some architectures.
1139
1140* Fix to build with newer FFmpeg versions.
1141
1142* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer now offers the choice to install
1143  for just the current user, which allows installing Survex without admin
1144  rights.
1145
1146* (Microsoft Windows version): Fix problems with valid coordinate systems being
1147  rejected and aven's cavern log window not showing output.  Reported by
1148  Peter Mašič, Špela Borko, Răzvan Dumbravă and detrito.  Thanks especially to
1149  Špela Borko for a lot of testing to help track down the cause.
1150
[cca63ece]1151Changes in 1.4.7 (2024-04-07):
1152
1153* cavern:
1154
1155  + When using *declination auto we report the range of calculated declinations
1156    for each location specified.  After doing this we now reset the range
1157    information we're tracking.  Previously we'd misreport the range for
1158    the second and subsequent locations.
1159
1160  + Avoid undefined behaviour on handling filename fallback for filenames
1161    containing non-ASCII characters.
1162
1163  + Show context line with relevant item highlighted for more errors and
1164    warnings.
1165
1166  + The dynamic string handling routines are now more efficient.
1167
1168  + Fix memory leak if a Compass MAK file opens folders it doesn't close.
1169
1170  + Fix handling of clino-less legs in Compass DAT.  These would cause cavern
1171    to fail with a lot of "NaN" messages.  Now they're treated as having a zero
1172    clino with a standard deviation based on the leg length, just like in .svx
1173    files.
1174
1175* img library:
1176
1177  + Compass PLT: Treat LRUD readings > 900 as omitted readings, which matches
1178    what Compass does.  Thanks to Larry Fish for clarifying this.
1179
1180  + Avoid undefined behaviour after realloc().  We were adjusting a pointer
1181    within the reallocated block by subtracting the old block address and
1182    adding on the new one.  Technically this is undefined behaviour, although
1183    in practice it seems likely it'll work and we've not seen misbehaviour due
1184    to it.  However it's easy to avoid by calculating the offset before the
1185    realloc().
1186
1187* Portability:
1188
1189  + Provide prototype for getopt() to avoid warnings with very recent compiler
1190    versions.
1191
1192  + Avoid using sprintf(), which now triggers warnings on some platforms.
1193
1194* Build system:
1195
1196  + Add configure --enable-werror option to turn compiler warnings into errors.
1197
[1fbe219e]1198* Manual:
1199
1200  + Expand details of Compass MAK CRS support.
1201
1202  + Replace very out of date information about binary RPM packages.
[cca63ece]1203
1204* Minor translation updates.
1205
1206* (Microsoft Windows version): Now uses PROJ 9.3.0 and ships all of the
1207  ancillary files that PROJ comes with.  Hoping this fixes use of coordinate
1208  system EPSG:3912 failing, which was reported by Peter Mašič but I've not
1209  managed to reproduce.
1210
[bad7f1a]1211Changes in 1.4.6 (2024-03-07):
[752a9f5]1212
1213* cavern:
1214
1215  + Workaround bug in PROJ < 9.3.0 with projected coordinate systems with
1216    northing/easting axis order (such as EPSG:3042) which results in the grid
1217    convergence being wrong by about 90°.  Reported by Patrick Warren on the
1218    mailing list.
[7bc4300]1219
[752a9f5]1220  + If *declination auto was used before *cs out we would incorrectly calculate
1221    the grid convergence as 0.  We now handle this case correctly by
1222    calculating lazily when we first read a compass reading, and report an
1223    error if the output coordinate system hasn't been set by then.
1224
[bad7f1a]1225  + When opening a file, cavern has fallback handling if the file isn't found
1226    to help people processing datasets from platforms with case-insensitive
1227    file systems.  Previously cavern would fold the filename to lowercase and
1228    retry.  Now if this fails, it will also try the lower case version but
1229    with the initial character of the leaf in upper case, and finally folding
1230    the whole specified filename to upper case.
1231
1232  + Dynamically pick a suitable level separator character and store it in .3d
1233    file, instead of it being hard-coded to '.' (we still use '.' unless it
1234    has been *set as a "name" character, or for Compass DAT/MAK files unless it
1235    has been used in a station name).  This is a step towards addressing the
1236    situations raised by Thomas Holder in https://github.com/ojwb/survex/pull/4
1237    and https://github.com/ojwb/survex/pull/5 .
1238
[9e62108]1239  + Compass DAT files:
[e5e93f9]1240
[bad7f1a]1241    - The shot flag S is now understood to indicate a splay.
1242
1243    - The shot flag P is now interpreted as marking surface data.  This flag
1244      is described as "Exclude this shot from plotting", but the use suggested
1245      in the Compass docs is for surface data, and legs flagged with it "[do]
1246      not support passage modeling".  Even if it's actually being used for a
1247      different purpose, Survex programs don't show surface legs by default so
1248      the end effect is at least to not plot as intended.
1249
[9e62108]1250    - Surveys which indicate a depth gauge was used for azimuth readings are
1251      now marked as STYLE_DIVING in the 3d file.
[e5e93f9]1252
[bad7f1a]1253    - Compass and clino corrections are now implemented for backsights.
[e5e93f9]1254
[9e62108]1255    - The tape correction in Compass DAT files is now handled correctly.  The
1256      specified value is in feet, but cavern was incorrectly treating it as
1257      being in metres.
1258
1259    - We now handle the newer 15 character "FORMAT:" encoding.  Previously
1260      cavern wouldn't detect when there were backsights in this case.
1261
1262    - We now treat survey date January 1st 1901 as "no date specified" since
1263      this is the date Compass stores in this situation, and it seems very
1264      unlikely to occur in real data.
1265
1266    - In Compass DAT files a dummy zero-length leg from a station to itself is
1267      used to provide a place to specify LRUD for the start or end of a
1268      traverse (depending if dimensions are measured at the from or to
1269      station), and so we no longer issue a warning about equating a station to
1270      itself for DAT files.
1271
1272  + Compass MAK files:
1273
[bad7f1a]1274    - The base location command is now understood.  This is how Compass
1275      specifies a location to calculate magnetic declination at, and we
1276      now handle this like Survex's native "*declination auto X Y Z".
1277
[9d6646a]1278    - Survex uses the specified UTM zone and datum provided the combination can
1279      be expressed as an EPSG code (lack of any EPSG codes for a datum suggests
1280      it's obsolete; lack of a code for a particular datum+zone combination
1281      suggests the zone is outside of the defined area of use of the datum).
1282      Example Compass files we've seen use "North American 1927" outside of
1283      where it's defined for use, presumably because some users fail to change
1284      the datum from Compass' default.  To enable reading such files we return
1285      a PROJ4 string of the form "+proj=utm ..." for "North American 1927" and
1286      "North American 1983" for UTM zones which don't have an EPSG code.
1287      Please let us know if support for additional cases which aren't currently
1288      supported would be useful to you.
[e5e93f9]1289
[bad7f1a]1290    - Folder commands are now understood.
[7bc4300]1291
[bad7f1a]1292    - Flag fixed stations as entrances.  Experimentation with Compass shows
1293      this is how it treats them ("distance from entrance" in a .DAT file
1294      counts from 0 at these points).
[9e62108]1295
[bad7f1a]1296  + We now support reading Compass CLP files.  These are very like DAT files,
1297    except they contain loop-closed data.  You might find this useful if you
1298    want to keep existing stations at the same adjusted positions Compass gave
1299    (for example to be able to draw extensions on an existing drawn-up survey),
1300    or if the original DAT file has been lost but you still have the CLP file.
[9e62108]1301
[bad7f1a]1302* aven:
[7bc4300]1303
[bad7f1a]1304  + Fix OpenGL scaling on high DPI displays with wxWidgets 3.0. Reported by
1305    Philip Balister.
[7bc4300]1306
[bad7f1a]1307  + Split the filters for DAT and MAK files in the File->Open drop down list.
1308    It seems more likely you'd want to see one type or the other, not both
1309    together.
[7bc4300]1310
[bad7f1a]1311* aven/survexport:
[7bc4300]1312
[bad7f1a]1313  + Fix survey filtering when reading Compass PLT files.
[b1c66e1]1314
[bad7f1a]1315  + .json,.kml: Enable export of surface legs.  Currently surface and
1316    underground legs aren't differentiated in these export formats when both
1317    are enabled.
[7bc4300]1318
[bad7f1a]1319  + .3d: The coordinate system is now set.
1320
1321  + .svg: Equated stations now get their correct names in the id attribute
1322    of <circle> tags.  Previously one of the names would be repeated for
1323    all of a set of equated stations.
1324
1325  + .plt:
1326
1327    - Anonymous stations previously resulted in an empty name in the PLT
1328      file.  This isn't explicitly disallowed by the PLT format description,
1329      but Compass' viewer gives an error for such lines.  Now we invent names
1330      by encoding the station coordinates which should be unique.
1331
1332    - The S shot flag is now set for splays, and the P shot flag (hide from
1333      plotting) is set for surface legs (which matches the use suggested in the
1334      Compass docs).
[e5e93f9]1335
[752a9f5]1336* img library:
1337
1338  + Fix bug handling timestamps before 1970.  In C signed integer division
1339    rounds towards zero, which previously resulted in timestamps before 1970
1340    getting rounded to the end of the day instead of the start when converting
1341    them to a count of days so they'd be off by one day unless the time was
1342    midnight.  This affected reading v3-v7 format 3d files with IMG_API_VERSION
1343    set to 1 and writing v8 format 3d files with IMG_API_VERSION set to 0 (the
1344    default).
1345
[9e62108]1346  + Improve Compass PLT support (many of these are Compass features added
1347    since Survex's support for Compass was originally added):
1348
1349    - Survey dates are now handled fully.  We treat survey date January 1st
1350      1901 as "no date specified" since this is the date Compass stores in this
1351      situation, and it seems very unlikely to occur in real data.
1352
1353    - LRUD data is now translated to img_XSECT and img_XSECT_END.
1354
1355    - We now infer img_SFLAG_ENTRANCE for stations where the "Distance From
1356      Entrance" field is present and zero.
1357
1358    - The shot flag L is now translated to img_FLAG_DUPLICATE.
1359
1360    - The shot flag S is now translated to img_FLAG_SPLAY.  A station at the
1361      far end of a shot flagged S gets img_SFLAG_WALL set since the Compass PLT
1362      format specification says:
1363
1364          The shot is a "splay" shot, which is a shot from a station to the
1365          wall to define the passage shape.
1366
1367    - The shot flag P is now interpreted as marking surface data.  This flag
1368      is described as "Exclude this shot from plotting", but the use suggested
1369      in the Compass docs is for surface data, and legs flagged with it "[do]
1370      not support passage modeling".  Even if it's actually being used for a
1371      different purpose, Survex programs don't show surface legs by default so
1372      the end effect is at least to not plot as intended.
1373
1374    - The d plot command is now supported (previously img failed to parse
1375      PLT files using this command) - it's like D but implies the P shot flag.
1376
1377    - If a PLT file only uses one datum and it is "WGS 1984" then the UTM zone
1378      is converted to the appropriate EPSG code and this is reported as the
1379      coordinate system.  Other datums could be handled, but the mapping to
1380      EPSG code is less simple.  Also it seems Compass supports at least
1381      24 datums but it doesn't document all the strings it uses for them.
1382      Files with multiple datums could be handled too, but we'd need to convert
1383      coordinates to a common coordinate system in the img library, which would
1384      need it to depend on PROJ.  Please let us know if support for more and/or
1385      mixed datums would be useful to you.
1386
1387    - Duplicate img_LABEL items are no longer returned - this used to happen
1388      for stations where more than two shots met within a single survey.
1389
1390    - We now infer img_SFLAG_EXPORTED for any station that appears in more
1391      than one survey in the PLT file.
1392
1393    - We now set flag img_SFLAG_FIXED for any station which is listed as
1394      a fixed point in the PLT file.
1395
1396    - If there's only one non-empty section name in a PLT file and we aren't
1397      filtering by survey, we now report that section name as the title.  If
1398      there are multiple different non-empty section names, we still report the
1399      basename of the file as before.  If we're filtering by survey, we report
1400      the comment for that survey as before.
1401
1402    - Fix bug handling PLT with omitted LRUD.  The format specification
1403      documents that LRUD may be omitted, though it seems Compass never
1404      actually omits it and at least some versions of Compass failed to handle
1405      it being omitted too.
1406
[bad7f1a]1407* (Microsoft Windows version): Now using wxWidgets 3.2.4 (was 3.1.6).
1408
1409* manual:
1410
1411  + Document Compass support in detail.
1412
1413  + Improve NATO mils example.
1414
1415* INSTALL:
1416
1417  + Add a link to the instructions for building from git.  Reported by Andrew
1418    Northall in https://github.com/ojwb/survex/pull/13
1419
1420  + Document the requirement for a C99 compiler for building from source.
1421    We made this a requirement in 1.4.2, but only noted it in NEWS.
1422
1423* doc/TODO.htm: Update.
1424
1425* Replace references to "libav" with "FFmpeg" since the libav project seems to
1426  now be defunct, and we've always supported using either.
1427
1428* Update build system to eliminate use of obsolete autotools macros and drop
1429  probes for features that we can safely assume now we require a C99 compiler
1430  and workarounds for obsolete platforms.
1431
1432* Fix compilation warnings from newer compiler versions.
1433
[a30f7d0]1434Changes in 1.4.5 (2023-06-29):
[1a67f93]1435
1436* aven: Fix rendering of crosses when drawn as sprites.  Reported by echarlie.
1437
1438* (macOS version): aven: Fix crash in export dialog.  Fixes #133, reported by
[a30f7d0]1439  rixyane.  Thanks to Wookey for testing.
[1a67f93]1440
1441* manual: Expand docs on connecting to Compass data.
1442
1443* Minor translation updates.
1444
[269106c]1445Changes in 1.4.4 (2023-02-03):
1446
1447* aven: Fix red line in clino background to be grey (this was introduced in
1448  1.4.3 and was a debugging change accidentally left in).
1449
1450* aven: Accept weird .3d files from Therion which have empty components in
1451  station names.  That's not really valid by Survex's definition of station
1452  names, but it's not very helpful to reject such files, so just disable the
1453  checks that were rejecting this.
1454
1455  The result is empty entries in the survey tree, but I don't see what we can
1456  really do that's better than that.
1457
1458  Reported by Vasily Vl. Suhachev.
1459
1460* aven: Make it more obvious you can enter a custom scale by adding a "..."
1461  entry to the scale combobox - selecting this clears the value and gives focus
1462  to the combo box text entry. This control has always supported clicking to
1463  enter a custom scale, but there wasn't really any indication that this was
1464  possible before.  Partly addresses #132, reported by Eric C. Landgraf.
1465
1466* aven: Force export window to resize when the export format is changed as
1467  different controls are shown depending on the export format.
1468
1469* aven: Right-align tilt spin control value in print/export dialog to match the
1470  bearing spin control.
1471
1472* aven,survexport: Add ability to export as Survex 3d which is useful as you
1473  can filter to a subset of surveys, filter out splays, convert from other
1474  formats the img library can read, etc.  This feature is a bit rough and ready
1475  currently but please report issues.
1476
1477* dump3d: Add --legs option which converts MOVE and LINE to a single LEG line
1478  per leg with the from and to coordinates.  Tools which parse dump3d output
1479  should find this easier to process as it avoids having to track a "current
1480  position".
1481
1482* Update manual to have a complete list of quantities which *calibrate accepts.
1483  Reported by echarlie
1484
1485* cavern.tst: Fix testsuite to work with SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH set.
1486
[fcf3d2e]1487Changes in 1.4.3 (2022-05-17):
[4c0900b]1488
[4659b8a]1489* aven: Much improved support for HiDPI monitors on all platforms.
[4c0900b]1490
1491* aven: When started without a file make sure the window has focus so menu
1492  accelerators and shortcuts work without clicking on the window.
1493
1494* aven,survexport: DXF export now puts splays in a separate layer and uses a
1495  dotted linetype for them.  Patch from echarlie, see #60.
1496
1497* Improved survexport man page to include command line options and a short
1498  note about DXF export.  Patch from echarlie.
1499
[4659b8a]1500* Minor translation updates.
[4c0900b]1501
[4659b8a]1502* (Unix version): aven: Fix handling of EGL-based wxGLCanvas (which wxGTK 3.1.5
1503  has).  Fix a build failure and don't force X11 (as the EGL-based wxGLCanvas
1504  works on Wayland).
[4c0900b]1505
1506* (MacOS version): aven: Fix hang on startup without a file.  Fixes #120,
1507  reported by Enrico Fratnik.
1508
[fcf3d2e]1509* (Microsoft Windows version): Now using wxWidgets 3.1.6 (was 3.0.5).
1510
[4659b8a]1511* img library: Support reproducible builds which create .3d files by not
1512  embedding a timestamp if environment variable SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set.
1513  Requested by Martin Budaj.
1514
[a33237fd]1515Changes in 1.4.2 (2022-02-25):
[d2b22b1]1516
1517* aven: Fix to be compatible with FFmpeg 5.0.
1518
1519* Improve docs for *cs and *declination.
1520
[48d5a6f]1521* cavern: Fix "*declination auto" not to crash when built with PROJ < 8.1.0.
1522  Bug introduced in 1.4.0.
1523
[a33237fd]1524* cavern: For each `*declination auto` command cavern now reports an "info"
1525  message showing the range of calculated declination values and the dates at
1526  which the ends of the range were obtained, and also the grid convergence
1527  (which doesn't vary with time).  Fixes #92, reported by Rob Eavis.
1528
[48d5a6f]1529* cavern: If any of the N-S, E-W or U-D ranges includes an anonymous station
1530  then also report the range in that direction excluding anonymous stations.
1531  Patch from Thomas Holder.
1532
1533* cavern: The error from a bad `*cs custom` command now highlights the quoted
1534  string properly.
[d2b22b1]1535
[a33237fd]1536* cavern: "FIX command with no coordinates - fixing at (0,0,0)" is now an
1537  "info" rather than a "warning".  It's not really reporting a problem and the
1538  ability to omit the coordinates is a deliberate feature.  It is useful for
1539  the user to know where the "*fix" without coordinates is if they want to
1540  change the survey to be in real coordinates, so an "info" diagnostic is a
1541  good fit.  This also means aven will no longer stay on the log view after
1542  processing a dataset which fixes without coordinates.
1543
1544* cavern: If "*fix" is used twice with no coordinates we no longer say
1545  "FIX command with no coordinates - fixing at (0,0,0)" right before:
1546
1547  error: Already had FIX command with no coordinates for station "x"
1548
[d2b22b1]1549* cavern: Include errors in Compass .mak files now report the error in the line
1550  where the included filename is actually specified.
1551
1552* cavern.tst: Add test coverage for warnings for *entrance and *export with
1553  a station which doesn't exist otherwise.
1554
[a33237fd]1555* aven/survexport: Change JSON export to be valid JSON.  This means the output
1556  has changed incompatibly, but it wasn't valid JSON before which suggests
1557  nobody was actually successfully using it. Fixes #128, reported by Pawczak.
1558
[48d5a6f]1559* aven.tst: Skip one testcase on macos as it seems to hang, at least when
1560  running on the Continuous Integration system.
1561
[a33237fd]1562* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer is now generated with a much
[84c4a07]1563  newer version of Innosetup.  This means Microsoft Windows Vista is now the
1564  minimum supported version but 2000 and XP are both many years out of support
1565  anyway.
[a33237fd]1566
1567* (Microsoft Windows version): The coordinate system database for PROJ is
1568  now included so "*cs" now works (broken since 1.4.0).
1569
[d2b22b1]1570* Chinese translation updates from Qingqing Li.
1571
[d8f00a9]1572* Building from source now requires a compiler with support for C99.  C99
1573  seems to be universally supported by compilers now so we don't expect this to
1574  inconvenience anyone.
1575
[570b57d]1576Changes in 1.4.1 (2021-11-08):
1577
1578* This release should work with any PROJ version >= 6.2.0.
1579
1580* cavern.tst: Fix to actually run tests when building outside the source
1581  tree.  Previously files for testcases weren't found, and tests were skipped
1582  with a warning, which lead to 1.4.0 being released with two failing testcase.
1583  Fix to find the files, and make not finding them an error.
1584
1585* cavern.tst: Fix testcases gpxexport and require_fail which were failing
1586  in 1.4.0.
1587
1588* 3dformat.htm: Document that coordinate system can be ESRI:<number>.
1589
[67f9739]1590Changes in 1.4.0 (2021-11-06):
[3b69f29]1591
1592* New release series to mark that Survex now uses the new PROJ API, and
[cccc545]1593  requires PROJ >= 7.2.0.  Survex 1.2.x will continue to support PROJ < 8
1594  (and won't support newer PROJ versions).  Fixes #102, reported by Bas
1595  Couwenberg.
[3b69f29]1596
1597  Due to these changes, PROJ will now convert directly between coordinate
1598  systems where it knows how to, instead of always converting via WGS84.
1599  This means conversions may now be more accurate in some cases, and you may
1600  notice station coordinates changing - these should be for the better.
1601
1602  Also, the vertical datum is now taken into account automatically, and
[e91c656]1603  terrain data now aligns much better vertically with surveys.  Fixes #56.
[3b69f29]1604
1605* aven: Clicking and holding the left mouse button on the compass or clino,
1606  then (while still holding) clicking the right button no longer causes a
1607  wxWidgets assertion to fail.  Reported by echarlie.
1608
1609* img library: Rewrite certain proj strings when reading 3d files for
1610  better compatibility with newer PROJ versions, where use of proj
1611  strings is strongly discouraged.
1612
1613  `+init=epsg:` followed by a code number is rewritten to `EPSG:`.
1614
1615  `+init=esri:` followed by a code number is rewritten to `ESRI:`.
1616
[67f9739]1617  The proj strings which cavern used to put in 3d files for UTM zones and
1618  S-MERC are rewritten to `EPSG:` follow by the appropriate code number.
[3b69f29]1619
1620* Also install survex.lang for gtksourceview 4. Fixes #125, reported by Martin
1621  Green.
1622
1623* Fix missing data style in interleaved example in manual.  Reported by
1624  echarlie.
1625
1626* Use jw from docbook-utils instead of sgmltools-lite to process the manual.
1627  The sgmltools-lite homepage says it's no longer being developed, and suggests
1628  docbook-tools (which Debian packages as docbook-utils) as a replacement.
1629
1630* doc/HACKING.htm: Update Debian packages to install
1631
[67f9739]1632* doc/HACKING.htm: Update details of setting up mingw cross-build environment.
1633
[3b69f29]1634* Add simple tests for GPX and KML export.
1635
1636* Expand cavern testcase csbad.
1637
1638* cavern.tst: Parse warning/error counts more robustly.  Previously we'd get
1639  confused if the final line just contained an integer, e.g. if we end listing
1640  stations not attached to a fixed point.
1641
[738af38]1642Changes in 1.2.45 (2021-03-09):
1643
1644* Avoid undefined signed shifts in 3d file handling.  Survex itself is only
1645  affected on big-endian platforms (so most Linux machine, Microsoft Windows,
1646  and current Macs are all OK), but this also affects the img library on all
1647  platforms when used in standalone mode as it is in other programs.  Fixes
1648  #119, reported by Matěj Plch.
1649
1650* aven:
1651
1652  + When reading cavern output for the log window, we need special handling
1653    for the case when a chunk of output ends mid-way through a UTF-8
1654    sequence.  Previously we lost the first byte of the sequence in this
1655    case (and would then show it as an invalid character), but now it is
1656    handled correctly.  In practice, most of the cavern log output is ASCII so
1657    it's quite possible nobody's ever actually hit this.
1658
1659* testsuite:
1660
1661  + Suppress reports of leaks on exit from the LeakSanitiser debugging tool.
1662    We know we don't release all memory explicitly on exit since doing so would
1663    mean extra work for no reason as the OS reclaims all memory when the
1664    process exits.
1665
1666* Convert OLDNEWS encoding from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8.
1667
[38bc415]1668Changes in 1.2.44 (2021-02-10):
1669
1670* aven:
1671
1672  + (Microsoft Windows version): Now using wxWidgets 3.0.5 (was 3.0.4).
[f9de21a]1673
1674* cavern:
1675
[66b477f]1676  * Add support for quadrant bearings (e.g. N30E).  Patch from echarlie.
1677
1678  * Report error if angle units are specified for passage dimension.
1679    Previously "*units left degrees" and similar were incorrectly quietly
1680    accepted.  Spotted by echarlie.
1681
[f9de21a]1682  * Fix *data with no parameters to keep the current style and reset any state
1683    as documented.  Previously it actually instead ignored any survey data
1684    until the next *data command with parameters.
1685
1686  * Fix minor memory leak in *data.  We leaked a single memory allocation on
1687    "*data default" or an invalid *data command.
1688
1689  * Improve test coverage.
1690
1691* survexport:
1692
1693  * The check for whether a format supported --elevation, --plan, --bearing and
1694    --tilt was inverted.  Reported by echarlie.
1695
1696  * Fix reporting of export errors on Microsoft Windows.  Reported by Matic Di
1697    Batista.
1698
1699* img library: Fix img_open() when used in other programs.  Patch from Thomas
1700  Holder.
1701
[66b477f]1702* configure: Add wx-config-gtk3 to WX_CONFIG search for Arch Linux.  Patch
1703  from Thomas Holder.
1704
[f9de21a]1705* Improve documentation of interleaved data.  Most notably, we now document
1706  that a blank line breaks the current traverse.
1707
1708* Fix typo in manual ('cypolar' -> 'cylpolar').  Patch from Wookey, fixes #117.
1709
1710* Chinese translation updates from Qingqing Li.
1711
1712* Russian translation updates from Vasily Vl. Suhachev.
1713
1714* French translation updates from Jean-Marc and from Wassil Janssen.
1715
1716* Bulgarian translation updates from Wassil Janssen
1717
[fe8a1b4]1718Changes in 1.2.43 (2020-02-28):
1719
1720* cavern: Update to use v13 of the IGRF model for calculating declinations.
1721  This was issued in December 2019 and should give slightly more accurate
1722  declinations for surveys made since 2010.
1723
1724* aven:
1725
1726  + Fix colouring of "not in loop" when colouring by error.  1.2.42 introduced
1727    a bug where surveys not in a loop were coloured as if they had zero error.
1728    Fixes #111, reported by Bruce Mutton.
1729
1730  + Fix handling of grid in export.  The grid was always getting enabled
1731    (probably since 1.2.8) even for formats which don't support exporting with
1732    a grid.  This resulted in the bounding box being set wrongly for some
1733    formats such as SVG, as reported by Richard Knapp on the mailing list.
1734
1735  + When showing errors processing the survey data we'd previously crash if
1736    cavern incorrectly reported an error as being in a column off the end of
1737    the line - now we just ignore the error column in this case.
1738
1739  + Support colouring by survey style ("normal", "diving", "nosurvey", etc).
1740
[040c02e]1741Changes in 1.2.42 (2019-09-04):
1742
1743* aven:
1744
1745  + Allow colouring by horizontal or vertical error.
1746
1747  + (Unix version): Disable scaling for HiDPI displays with GTK3.  The OpenGL
1748    code needs work before this will work usefully, so just disable for now
1749    (which simulates how things are when using GTK2).
1750
1751  + (Unix version): Fix orientation of notebook tabs when build with wxWidgets
1752    3.1 development versions.  We want horizontal tab orientation, but were
1753    passing a weird flag combination which now results in vertical tab
1754    orientation.
1755
1756* When exporting to a format where we support rotation in the horizontal
1757  plane (such as SVG), the rotation was incorrectly applied to cross section
1758  data (except for the default rotation of zero).  Fixes #108, reported by
1759  Richard Knapp.
1760
1761* Add a section to the manual covering the command line tools, and what you
1762  might still need to use them for.
1763
1764* Fix compiler warning when building from source with GCC 9.
1765
1766* Consistently refer to macOS not OS X - Apple have renamed it yet again.
1767
1768* (macOS version): Revert the workaround for the crash on macOS 10.14.  The
1769  bug we were working around is fixed in git ready for wxWidgets 3.0.5 and
1770  there's a backported fix in the homebrew wxmac 3.0.4-2 package, which is how
1771  we now recommend people install on a Mac.  Closes #101, reported by floho.
1772
1773* (macOS version): Remove buildmacosx.sh script since installing from homebrew
1774  is now the recommended approach.
1775
[0957d63]1776Changes in 1.2.41 (2019-07-10):
1777
1778* aven:
1779
1780  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix error on startup in the pre-built version
1781    of 1.2.39 and 1.2.40.  This is a recurrence of the same issue as affected
1782    1.2.33 - this time I've patched out the unnecessary check in wxWidgets
1783    which causes this problem so it shouldn't recur again.  Reported by
1784    Brian Clipstone.
1785
1786  + (macOS version): Add work around for crash on macOS 10.14 (not fully tested
1787    as I don't have access to a Mac).  Hopefully fixed #101, reported by floho.
1788
[d034033]1789Changes in 1.2.40 (2019-07-04):
1790
1791* aven: Draw the measuring line ring with an even shape.  Previously the exact
1792  shape of the ring varied slightly depending on the exact coordinates, which
1793  could be visually distracting once you noticed it.
1794
1795* We were casting a function pointer with a bool return type to the same type
1796  but with a void return type.  In practice this probably works fine on most
1797  platforms, but it's undefined behaviour and also gives a compiler warning
1798  with some compilers.
1799
1800* Fix bug introduce in 1.2.39 with where the "esri" data file for PROJ is
1801  installed.
1802
[9fe70e44]1803Changes in 1.2.39 (2019-06-29):
1804
1805* Support versions 5.x and 6.x of the PROJ library we use for handling
1806  conversions between coordinate systems.  Reported by Bas Couwenberg
1807  in #102, by Richard Knapp in #103 and by Martin Sluka in email.
1808
1809* (Unix and Mac OS versions): When checking if something is a file or if it is
1810  a directory, we no longer treat a symlink as being neither, but instead
1811  return an answer based on what the symlink points to.
1812
1813* aven:
1814
1815  + Improve handling of hidden splay ends.  Previously, hidden splay ends still
1816    served as "targets" for snapping the mouse pointer to, and still got
1817    crosses when crosses were enabled.  We don't have a handy flag for "this is
1818    the outer end of a splay" and computing that on demand isn't so easy to do,
1819    so for now we use the "anonymous station" flag so at least these cases now
1820    behave properly for splays to anonymous stations (which is likely to be
1821    what people with huge numbers of splays from disto-x, etc are using).  This
1822    does mean that anonymous stations on continuation passages will incorrectly
1823    also be off when splays are hidden, but that seems an OK trade-off for now
1824    and a definite improvement over the previous situation.  The snapping of
1825    the mouse pointer was reported by Frank Tully in #105.
1826
1827  + Fix typo in export UI (CVS should be CSV).
1828
1829* Documentation:
1830
1831  + Add CSV to documented list of survexport output formats.
1832
1833  + Fix *declination syntax synopsis - "auto" is a literal string, not a
1834    placeholder.
1835
1836  + Update PROJ project name and website - the name is now "PROJ" (all caps and
1837    no ".4" suffix) and the website is now: https://proj.org/
1838
1839* Install gtksourceview-3.0 language file so .svx files now get syntax
1840  highlighting in gedit and other GtkSourceView-based editors.  Patch
1841  from Philip Withnall.  Fixes #98.
1842
1843* (Microsoft Windows version): The Survex installer doesn't uninstall the old
1844  version when you upgrade, but just overwrites it with the new version.  In
1845  1.2.35 cad3d.exe was replaced with survexport.exe, but a user upgrading from
1846  an older version would still have cad3d.exe from that old version.  We now
1847  remove any old cad3d.exe left over from a previous install in the same
1848  location to avoid confusion.
1849
1850* Add a few more message translations.
1851
1852* Fix warnings when built with a C++11 compiler.
1853
[66b555d]1854Changes in 1.2.38 (2019-03-02):
1855
1856* cavern:
1857
1858  + Deprecate MILS as angular units.  Survex has long support MILS as an alias
1859    for GRADS.  However, this seems to be a bogus definition of a "mil" which
1860    is unique to Survex (except that Therion has since copied it) - there are
1861    several different definitions of a "mil" but they vary from 6000 to 6400 in
1862    a full circle, not 400.  Reported by Andy Edwards.
1863
1864  + Fix segfault for *include "".  This isn't useful, but shouldn't crash.  It
1865    now reports "file not found" instead.
1866
1867  + Use isnan() to check for not-a-number.  This is cleaner, more robust and
1868    more efficient than formatting the number as a string and checking for
1869    "NaN" or "nan" in the result.
1870
1871* Avoid unused variable warning when compiling from source with modern ffmpeg.
1872
1873* Drop support for wxWidgets < 3.0.  3.0.0 was released over 5 years ago and
1874  should be easily available everywhere by now.  I'm no longer easily able to
1875  test with wxWidgets 2.8, and this allows a significant amount of cruft to be
1876  removed.
1877
1878* (Linux version): survex.spec: Fedora have removed gcc from the default build
1879  environment so need to explicitly list it in the BuildRequires tag.  See
1880  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Remove_GCC_from_BuildRoot for more
1881  information.  Patch from James Begley.
1882
[3147062]1883Changes in 1.2.37 (2018-11-18):
1884
1885* aven:
1886
1887  + Add basic "Colour by Survey" feature.  The colours used aren't currently
1888    controllable.
1889
1890  + Fix export of splays.  Patch from Thomas Holder.
1891
1892  + Fix KML export to avoid invalid geometry when a tube intersects itself.
1893    Patch from Robert Jones.
1894
1895  + (Unix version): Fix to work under Wayland by forcing the x11 GDK backend
1896    for now.  This is a workaround until wxWidgets OpenGL support is updated
1897    to work under Wayland.  Reported by Philip Balister.
1898
[0482978]1899  + Fix warnings about using deprecated functions when building movie export
1900    code using FFmpeg 4.0.
1901
[3ed7da1]1902* cavern:
[3147062]1903
[3ed7da1]1904  + Compass MAK files: Handle fixed point coordinates in feet - previously the
1905    units were ignored and the coordinates assumed to be in metres.
[3147062]1906
[3ed7da1]1907  + Previously the first byte in a MAK file was ignored.  Typically MAK files
1908    start with a comment, and since cavern currently ignores lines that start
1909    with characters it doesn't understand the meaning of, this bug would often
1910    go unnoticed.
[3147062]1911
1912* survexport:
1913
1914  + Fix exporting of passages, walls and cross-sections by running the code
1915    aven uses to decide how much to rotate each cross-section.  Previously all
1916    cross-sections were aligned West-East.  Reported by Robert Jones.
1917
1918  + Default to .pos output if the program name is 3dtopos, and install a second
1919    copy (or hardlink under Unix) as 3dtopos.  This provides compatibility with
1920    current releases of Tunnel.  Reported by Becka Lawson, Wookey and
1921    Stephen Crabtree.
1922
1923* Fix some German translations.  Patch from Thomas Holder.
1924
1925* (MacOS X version): Fix aven-create-app to not delete converted icons.
1926  Typo spotted by Robert Jones.
1927
1928* Improve documentation for *team.  Document the requirement to quote names
1929  unless a person is identified by just one name.  Document that the roles are
1930  optional, as that information may not have been recorded, and to align with
1931  therion's team command.
1932
[26ab0a7]1933Changes in 1.2.36 (2018-07-18):
1934
1935* aven:
1936
1937  + Add support for exporting as a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file.
1938
1939  + Support exporting KML with altitude mode "clamp to ground".  In this mode,
1940    the altitude in the data is ignored and it's rendered on the surface of the
1941    terrain.  This is useful if your KML viewer renders the terrain as opaque
1942    so underground data isn't visible.  Rendering cave passages on the surface
1943    isn't great, but is better than not being able to see them at all.  This
1944    option may also be helpful if you want to see where to look on the surface
1945    for new entrances.
1946
1947  + Highlight surveys with a white loop as the mouse is moved over them in
1948    the survey tree.  This is akin to how we highlight a station with a
1949    white ring, and allows restoring "double-click survey in tree to zoom"
1950    which temporarily required a quadruple-click in 1.2.35.
1951
1952  + Only show checkboxes in the survey tree for surveys not stations.
1953
1954  + Fix wxWidgets assertion if the user tried to select additional surveys
1955    to show via the right-click menu.
1956
1957  + Fix multiple survey filtering when both a parent and child survey are
1958    selected.  In this case it makes most sense to show all child surveys of
1959    the parent, but we actually showed a slightly arbitrary subset of the
1960    child surveys of the parent.
1961
1962  + The checkbox area in the survey tree is now included in the area which
1963    is considered by mouse-over updates such as highlighting the station or
1964    survey.
1965
1966  + Fix display of double quotes in cavern log window (they were being replaced
1967    with control character 0x16 due to a typo in the code).
1968
1969  + Add shortcuts to buttons in cavern log window.
1970
1971  + Eliminate use of gluErrorString() function which eliminates some
1972    deprecation warnings when building on macOS.
1973
1974  + Reject multiple --survey command line options for now (only the last has
1975    been used for a long time, but now we actually support multiple survey
1976    filtering this matters more).
1977
1978* survexport:
1979
1980  + Report a useful error when trying to convert a .3d file without coordinate
1981    system information to GPS.  Reported by Mark Shinwell.
1982
1983  + Handle multiple redundant --survey command line options correctly.
1984
1985* dump3d: Report station flag "WALL", which was added in 1.2.7.
1986
1987* Minor translation updates.
1988
1989* Update manual for Microsoft Windows changes.
1990
1991* tests/: Add test coverage for warnings about suspect readings
1992
1993* Fix warning when compiling with clang.
1994
[facb636]1995Changes in 1.2.35 (2018-07-03):
1996
1997* aven:
1998
1999  + Viewing can now be restricted to multiple surveys.  Use the right-button
2000    menu on a survey in the survey tree and select "Show" to enable checkboxes
2001    for that survey and all its siblings.  Only the selected surveys are shown
2002    on screen, printed and exported.
2003
2004  + Don't open a survey when its name is double clicked.  This was happening
2005    due to code added to "allow double-clicking to work on wxMSW >= 2.8.11".
2006    However, reverting that change still seems to allow double-clicking to work
2007    on both wxMSW and wxGTK, but fixes the unwanted additional opening of the
2008    survey.
2009
2010  + Pick initial survey scaling based on whichever of the window width or
2011    height gives the smaller scale.  Previously we always used the window
2012    width, which can result in parts of the cave being outside the initial
2013    view.  Reported by Wookey.
2014
2015  + Drop ability to specify a PROJ string in the export dialog.  This was added
2016    to allow exporting to formats such as GPX before we added support for
2017    specifying the projection in .svx files, and that support is now mature.
2018
2019  + DXF export now uses 2 decimal places (was 6) for the bounding box, for
2020    consistency with the precision used for coordinates.
2021
2022  + Fix handling of surface flag during export.  In formats which discriminate,
2023    legs could previously have got assigned the wrong status.
2024
2025  + Fix bug which probably prevented aven starting when OpenGL double buffering
2026    is unavailable.  This is unlikely to affect any common configurations.
2027
2028  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix loading of 3d files with non-ASCII
2029    filenames.  Issue reported by Matic.
2030
2031  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix incorrect display of some toolbar icons.
2032    Probably broken since 1.2.17.
2033
2034* survexport: New command-line export program which uses aven's export code.
2035  Replaces 3dtopos, cad3d and findentrances, since it can do all that these
2036  tools could do, plus much more.
2037
2038* Merge more Spanish i18n updates from Evaristo Quiroga.
2039
2040* Minor updates to various other translations.
2041
2042* img library:
2043
2044  + Now supports reading from and writing to an existing FILE*.
2045
2046  + Improve API documentation.
2047
2048* (Microsoft Windows version): Fix packaging to include wxWidgets translation
2049  files like it was supposed to, which fixes a few missing translations.  This
2050  was probably broken by changes in 1.2.8.  Reported by Evaristo Quiroga.
2051
2052* (Microsoft Windows version): Drop two options from explorer bindings.
2053  "Convert to DXF" and "Convert for hand plotting" have both been supported via
2054  aven for a while, and that's a more useful way to access them as you can
2055  control what gets exported.
2056
[5279c800]2057Changes in 1.2.34 (2018-03-24):
2058
2059* aven:
2060
2061  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix error on startup in the pre-built version
2062    of 1.2.33.
2063
2064  + (Microsoft Windows version): Now using wxWidgets 3.0.4 (was 3.0.2).
2065
[f057bc1]2066Changes in 1.2.33 (2018-03-22):
2067
2068* aven:
2069
2070  + Reliably disable scale bar in perspective view.  This is supposed to happen
2071    (because the scale across the screen varies in perspective view) but
2072    actually the scale bar stayed around until an update was forced for another
2073    reason.  Spotted thanks to Pedro Silva Pinto.
2074
2075  + Make "no date"/"not in loop" colour grey.  The white was a bit bright and
2076    made it harder to see the legs that had colours.  The grey now used is
2077    within the brightness range of the other colours.  Fixes #94, reported by
2078    Erin Lynch.
2079
2080  + Fix KML export - exporting both survey legs and station names resulted in a
2081    malformed KML file.  This bug was introduced in 1.2.30 when support for
2082    exporting passages and walls was added.  Reported by Erin Lynch in #90.
2083
2084  + Consistently use 2 decimal places for altitude in KML output.  Some places
2085    used 8 decimal places which is appropriate for lat and long, but clearly
2086    overkill for an altitude in metres and increases the file size
2087    unnecessarily.
2088
2089  + Right-align bearing widget in print/export dialog.  The change to allow the
2090    value to wrap round from 360 to 0 in 1.2.27 inadvertently made this control
2091    left-aligned (due to incorrect wxWidgets documentation of the default style
2092    for this control).
2093
2094  + (Unix version): Work around wxWidgets bug so that custom cursors work
2095    under GTK3.
2096
2097  + (Unix version): Update GTK version reporting - report GTK3, and don't
2098    bother to report subversions of GTK2 (it seems to be fairly arbitrary
2099    which subversions wxWidgets defines constants for).
2100
2101  + Update code to work without warnings when using wxWidgets 3.1.0 (the
2102    current development version).
2103
2104  + Make movie export code compatible with upcoming FFmpeg 3.5 release.
2105    It should still work with the older versions that worked before this
2106    change.  Reported by James Cowgill in https://bugs.debian.org/888334
2107
2108* cavern:
2109
2110  + Warn about 2 digit years.  We can't change the assumption that these are
2111    19xx without risking breaking existing datasets, but the further we get
2112    into this century, the more likely such an assumption is to catch someone
2113    out.  The warning can easily be quashed by explicitly adding the assumed
2114    "19".
2115
2116* The Spanish translation is now up to date once more, thanks to updates from
2117  Evaristo Quiroga.
2118
2119* Merge French translation updates from Jean-Marc.
2120
2121* Fix transposed German Northing and Easting labels.  Fixes #95, reported by
2122  milosch.
2123
2124* Fill in missing translations of "Easting", "Northing", "E" and "N" for
2125  Bulgarian, Greek, Hungarian, Polish and Russian based on other existing
2126  translated messages.
2127
2128* Align .pos file headings better with columns of coordinates below for
2129  Indonesian and Polish.
2130
2131* Fix handling of the message string "error" before messages loaded.  If
2132  there's an error loading messages, we need this message to report it.
2133  Reported by Martin Sluka.
2134
2135* Fix a few compiler warnings.
2136
2137* img library: Fix extracting leaf survey name for survey title.  When there
2138  are three or more levels of survey, we were taking everything after the first
2139  dot rather than everything after the last dot.
2140
2141* Fix problems with testsuite on macOS:
2142
2143  + cavern.tst: Skip "ONELEG" testcase on case-insensitive filing systems
2144    - this test isn't meaningful unless the filing system is case-sensitive,
2145    but happens to fail if it isn't.
2146
2147  + cavern.tst: Workaround limitations of Apple's sed.
2148
2149  + aven.tst: Fix not to hang on macOS.
2150
2151  + smoke.tst: Remove aven testcases which duplicate those in aven.tst.
2152
2153* Clean up handling of support files in relocatable installs - this is now
2154  detected at run time on macOS.
2155
2156* Split out macOS Aven.app creation into a make rule so it can be easily used
2157  by the homebrew formula.
2158
2159* buildmacosx.sh:
2160
2161  + Fix when WX_CONFIG not specified - this was giving a confusing error like:
2162    ./buildmacosx.sh: line 163: --cc: command not found
2163
2164  + Use wxWidgets 3.0.4.
2165
2166* Stop checking wx-config --ldflags as this option was removed in wxWidgets 2.6
2167  and we currently require 2.8 or newer.
2168
[66576b6]2169Changes in 1.2.32 (2017-07-08):
2170
2171* aven:
2172
2173  + Make splays on printouts a darker shade of grey.  Reported by Erin Lynch
2174    and Anthony Day.
2175
2176  + In export formats which include 3 dimensions (DXF, PLT, GPX, KML, JSON,
2177    POS), the value in the Z dimension was negated.  Bug introduced by fixes
2178    for export of rotated plans and tilted elevations in 1.2.27.  Reported by
2179    Erin Lynch in #89.
2180
2181  + Ignore viewing angles for export formats which work in 3D.  When the
2182    rotation and tilt controls are hidden in the export dialog we were still
2183    using their values to transform the data, so if you set them with for one
2184    export format which support them, then switched to an export format which
2185    doesn't, you'd get bogus coordinates in the exported file.  Bug probably
2186    introduced in 1.2.27 by fixes for exports of rotated plans and tilted
2187    elevations.
2188
2189  + Fix exporting to skencil and Survex .pos formats.  When aven's export to
2190    .pos was added in 1.2.19, the ordering didn't match up and since then .pos
2191    export has produced skencil files and vice versa.
2192
2193  + Don't leave terrain on if loading terrain data fails.  Previously if you
2194    clicked the terrain icon (or via the menu) with no terrain loaded, but no
2195    terrain got loaded (e.g. because the survey data lacks an explicit
2196    coordinate system, or because the file failed to load, or because you
2197    cancelled the dialog) then the terrain icon/menu item was still changed to
2198    "on".
2199
2200  + Disable texturing while drawing terrain.  Previously the terrain got a bit
2201    darker when "Textured Walls" were enabled.
2202
2203  + Force a refresh when "Textured Walls" are enabled or disabled.  Previously
2204    the display wouldn't update right away.
2205
2206* Manual:
2207
2208  + Document how to specify fixed point altitude in feet.
2209
2210  + Explain why *fix warns about unused fixed points
2211
2212* Building from source now requires a compiler with decent support for C++11.
2213  If you're using GCC, then GCC 4.7 should suffice.  This should not be an
2214  onerous requirement - e.g. Debian wheezy and Ubuntu trusty both have a recent
2215  enough GCC.  If special options are needed, these should get probed for and
2216  automatically.  Fixes building 1.2.31 with GCC < 6, reported by Wookey.
2217
[28695f1]2218Changes in 1.2.31 (2017-07-01):
[11c814b]2219
2220* aven:
2221
2222  + Use superscript 'g' symbol instead of word 'grads' in status bar.  This
2223    conserves the limited space available, and we already do this in the
2224    compass and clino indicators so it's more consistent too.
2225
2226  + Show one decimal place on measure line bearing.  Pointed out by Benedikt
2227    Hallinger on the therion list, though I'm sure this has been asked for
2228    before by others.
2229
2230  + Show gradient of the measuring line when both ends are stations.
2231
2232  + Allow selection of text in cavern log window.  Selection was disabled in
2233    1.2.28 because it seemed you couldn't actually copy selected text to the
2234    clipboard, but retesting this now actually works fine for me, both with
2235    current git master with the change reverted, and with code just before the
2236    original change.
2237
[28695f1]2238  + More robust parsing of cavern output (cleanly handle context highlighting
2239    which extends beyond the end of the line).
[11c814b]2240
2241  + Allow showing duplicate legs as dashed lines or hiding them entirely,
2242    with dashed now being the default.  Implemented by Patrick Warren.
2243
2244  + Also allow "Dashed" for splays and "Faded" for duplicate legs.
2245
[28695f1]2246  + Splay legs in surface data are also shown faded.
[11c814b]2247
[28695f1]2248  + Check environment variables VISUAL and EDITOR when looking for editor to
2249    use when a warning or error is clicked on in the cavern log window.  The
2250    specified editor may have a GUI or need to run in a terminal, so we have to
2251    special-case each editor supported, and that means we can pass extra
2252    options needed to position the cursor on the appropriate line/column.
2253    Currently these editors are supported: gvim, nvim, vim, gedit, pluma,
2254    emacs, nano, jed, kate.  Suggested by Wookey.
[11c814b]2255
2256  + Fix handling of non-square terrain data files - the X and Y dimensions were
2257    swapped.  Reported by detrito.
2258
[28695f1]2259  + Improve parsing of DEM data with .hdr file.  Use documented defaults for
2260    more values, and where we only support a subset of values (or a particular
2261    value) check for unsupported values in more cases.
2262
2263  + When colouring by depth, fix colouring and texturing of polygons which
2264    cross depth bands.  The previous problems were most obvious with high
2265    chambers and long legs down deep pitches, especially in for surveys without
2266    much vertical range.
2267
2268  + Support for drawing blobs using point sprites was added in 1.2.28,
2269    but caching that this worked wasn't hooked up properly so the test to
2270    see if this worked would happen at the start of each run.  This is now
2271    cached as intended which should reduce start up time a little when blobs
2272    are drawn in this way.
2273
2274  + Fix drawing of crosses with lines.  This is a fall-back case which is
2275    rarely used as most OpenGL setups will handle a better method, but it was
2276    resulting in crosses with a four-pixel square in the centre - now the
2277    centre should be a single pixel.
[11c814b]2278
2279* cavern:
2280
[28695f1]2281  + Allow *data with no arguments to reset the current style - useful for
2282    entering passage data where there are side passages.
2283
2284  + Fix hang processing file without newline at end.  This bug was introduced
2285    by changes in 1.2.28.  Reported by Mark Brown.
2286
[11c814b]2287  + (Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows versions): Build with newer version of
2288    PROJ library which fixes buggy handling of *fix with lat-long coordinates.
[28695f1]2289    Also add a testcase to the testsuite to alert users building for themselves
2290    with an affected PROJ version on any platform.  Reported by Ross Davidson.
[11c814b]2291
2292  + Fix cavern to handle Compass .DAT with no survey team.  Previously this
2293    resulted in the bogus error: Expecting numeric field, found "FROM"
2294    Reported by Erin Lynch.
2295
2296  + Handle UTF-8 "BOM" at start of .svx files.  Unicode doesn't recommend its
2297    use, but Microsoft stuff seems to like to create files with it in, and the
2298    error cavern currently reports for such files is very confusing, so it
2299    seems best to just handle it.  Reported by Rob Eavis.
2300
2301  + Change a couple of messages to use double quotes for consistency with all
2302    other messages.
2303
[28695f1]2304* extend:
2305
2306  + Now runs a bit faster.
2307
2308  + Splays are now carried over the extended survey.  The current handling
2309    is simplistic, but should do a good enough job to be more useful than
2310    discarding splays.  The splays at each station are all rotated together
2311    based on the bearing between the stations either side of the current one
2312    along the first path extended through that station.  This nicely handles
2313    dead ends and the situation at the top or bottom of a pitch, and should
2314    tend to pick an angle close to the passage orientation along a traverse.
2315    It's weakest at junctions.  Feedback (especially examples which could
2316    be handled better) most welcome.
2317
2318* French translation is now up to date again, thanks to Jean-Marc.
2319
2320* Remove erroneous menu shortcut markers from Polish translations.
2321
2322* Fill in some missing translations in several languages by using message
2323  translations from therion.
2324
2325* Add note to *fix documentation to clarify the coordinate order with *cs
2326  long-lat.  Issue raised by Ross Davidson.
2327
[11c814b]2328* Fix errors in documentation of *units: "DEG" should be "DEGS", and
2329  "MINUTES" has been supported for ages but wasn't documented.  Reported by
2330  Footleg.
2331
[28695f1]2332* Fix a few typos in the documentation.
2333
2334* Fix compilation warning with recent GCC.
[11c814b]2335
[56b37f3]2336Changes in 1.2.30 (2016-10-03):
2337
2338* aven:
2339
2340  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix crash when trying to print or export
2341    (probably introduced in 1.2.28).  Reported by Brian Clipstone.
2342
2343  + Report error if terrain file contains no terrain data in area of survey.
2344    Suggested by detrito.
2345
2346  + Errors when writing an export file were reported with the wrong filename
2347    - the .3d file, not the filename we were trying to write to.
2348
2349  + Export to KML now supports exporting passages, walls and cross-sections.
2350    Addresses the remainder of ticket #4.
2351
2352* Add man page for dump3d.
2353
[d0418ac]2354Changes in 1.2.29 (2016-09-27):
2355
2356* aven:
2357
2358  + Fix SVG output with non-ASCII characters (the charset in the SVG file
2359    is now set to UTF-8 not ISO-8859-1).
2360
2361  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix error dialog on startup in pre-built
[53c1e5d]2362    version.  Reported by Brian Clipstone.
[d0418ac]2363
2364* Manual: Add link to TerrainData wiki page.  Omission highlighted by Erin
2365  Lynch and "detrito".
2366
2367* Fix to build without FFmpeg/libav and with older versions, broken by changes
2368  in 1.2.28.  Reported by James Begley.
2369
[6897356]2370Changes in 1.2.28 (2016-09-24):
[0d8f67a]2371
2372* cavern:
2373
2374  + Show the contents of the line after error and warning messages while
2375    processing survey data, and indicate the region of the line in many cases
2376    in the same style that compilers such as GCC and clang use (using the
2377    column number we already have, plus new width information).  Based on a
2378    patch from Mateusz Golicz.
2379
2380  + Add column and width information for many more error and warning messages.
2381
2382  + Fix column for "Separator in survey name" warning.
2383
2384  + Improve warnings when using a backclino with range 0-180 degrees (reusing
2385    the same machinery we already have for a forward clino with range 0-180
2386    degrees).
[99b3298]2387
2388* aven:
2389
2390  + Include LRUD in printout/export of extended elevations, broken by
2391    improvements to export of tilted elevations in 1.2.27.  Reported by Anthony
2392    Day.
2393
2394  + Name <trk> tags in GPX output, so Garmin GPS units name the imported track
2395    usefully.  Reported by Anthony Day.
2396
2397  + Remember scale from previous print or export operation in the same run of
2398    aven.  Suggested by Stuart Bennett.
2399
[0d8f67a]2400  + Convert range indication below shown line to a highlight on that region
2401    of the line in cavern log window.
2402
[99b3298]2403  + Fix colouring of error/warning without column in cavern log window.
2404
2405  + Fix click on error/warning without column in cavern log window.
2406
[6897356]2407  + Fix highlight of translations of "error" or "warning" containing non-ASCII
2408    characters.  This fix for this only works with a Unicode build of
2409    wxWidgets, but as of wxWidgets 3.0, all builds are Unicode, so this
2410    shouldn't be much of a problem as wxWidgets 2.x is close to obsolete now.
2411    Reported by Mateusz Golicz.
2412
[0d8f67a]2413  + Disable selection of text in cavern log window - you can't currently copy
2414    it to the clipboard, so until that's implemented it seems better to disable
2415    the ability to select it.  Reported by Wookey.
2416
[99b3298]2417  + Avoid special "1000" scale entry when exporting.
2418
2419  + Show 1 page when "One Page" selected.
2420
2421  + Reload processed data when restricting view.  Fixes failure when
2422    restricting view on data just processed via aven.  Spotted by Andrew
2423    Atkinson and myself.
2424
2425  + Don't hide blobs and crosses behind terrain.  Reported by Jenny Black.
2426
2427  + Fix rendering of crosses using point sprites.  The texture being used was
2428    misaligned relative to the image used for the visual fidelity check, so the
2429    check always failed and point sprites would never be used.  Where point
2430    sprites are supported, they're probably the fastest option - on my netbook
2431    this change improves FPS by ~6 fold when displaying crosses for a large
2432    survey.
2433
2434  + Support drawing blobs using point sprites.  About 5 times faster than using
2435    lines on my netbook.
2436
2437  + Recheck how best to draw crosses and blobs on the first run after Survex
2438    is upgraded (or downgraded) as the rendering code may have changed (we
2439    already recheck when the OpenGL hardware or driver changes).
2440
[6897356]2441  + Change "MPEG" export to be MPEG4 (.mp4) rather than MPEG1 (.mpg).
2442    MPEG4 produces smaller output of higher quality, and should be widely
2443    supported these days.  And I can't get the MPEG1 output to work without
2444    buffer underflows, resulting in a file which doesn't play without
2445    glitches.
2446
2447  + Add OGG video to the list of formats - it's more compact than the others
2448    we currently list, though slower to write.
2449
2450  + Fix export to movie formats for which libav/FFmpeg needs to seek the file
2451    being written.  This was broken by changes in 1.2.27.
2452
2453  + Overhaul movie export for the current FFmpeg API, fixing deprecation
2454    warnings when building against a recent version.
2455
[99b3298]2456  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix corrupted exported movie files.  1.2.27
2457    changed the movie export code to allow writing to files with non-ASCII
2458    characters in the names, but the new code failed to open the file in binary
2459    mode, leading to corrupt output.  Fixes #81, reported by Erin Lynch.
2460
[f55cbeb]2461  * (Microsoft Windows version): Pre-built version now uses FFmpeg 3.1.3 for
2462    movie export.
2463
2464  * (Mac OS X version): Pre-built version now uses FFmpeg 3.1.3 for movie
2465    export.
2466
[99b3298]2467* Fix to build without FFmpeg/libav, broken by changes in 1.2.27.  Reported by
2468  James Begley.
2469
[0d8f67a]2470* The Polish translation is now very close to being complete, thanks to a
2471  substantial update from Mateusz Golicz.
2472
[99b3298]2473* Merge catalan translation updates from Adolfo Jayme.
2474
[7333c2c]2475* (Microsoft Windows version): Map LANG_CHINESE to zh_CN not zh so Chinese
2476  messages get used automatically.
2477
2478* cavern.tst: Remove random : from after ] - dash ignores the extra character,
2479  but it causes this test to fail if /bin/sh is a different shell (e.g. bash).
2480
[0d8f67a]2481* cavern.tst: Add expected output for more testcases.
2482
2483* Remove unwanted execute bit from some testcase data.
2484
2485* Use https for more URLs which support it.
2486
[690fdab]2487Changes in 1.2.27 (2016-06-06):
[dfe8d05]2488
2489* aven:
2490
2491  + Right click on a survey in the survey tree now gives a pop-up menu
2492    with "Hide others", which restricts the view to just that survey
2493    and any subsurveys.  Right click on the root of the survey tree
2494    gives a menu with "Show all" to undo any restriction in effect.
2495    (Currently these are implemented by reloading the file and using
2496    the same machinery as the --survey= command line option, but that will
2497    probably change in the future).
2498
[690fdab]2499  + If there's a sub-survey restriction (from the --survey= command line
2500    option or the new UI described above) it is now shown in brackets after
2501    the survey tree root.
[dfe8d05]2502
[690fdab]2503  + When reloading a survey, preserve the current view position (previously
2504    the view was recentred).
[dfe8d05]2505
2506  + When reloading a survey, actually preserve the current scale factor
2507    (this was meant to happen, but the adjustment was applied in the
2508    wrong direction).
2509
2510  + New "File->Extended Elevation..." menu item provides a way to generate
2511    extended elevations for simple cases without having to use the command
2512    line.  Suggested by Fleur Loveridge.
2513
[690fdab]2514  + Don't process key presses if accompanied by an unexpected modifier key.
2515    In particular, this means that aven no longer interferes with Alt+<function
2516    key> (which is typically handled by the desktop) and Alt+<letter> (which is
2517    typically a menu short cut).  Reported by Владимир Георгиев.
[dfe8d05]2518
2519  + Reduce file loading time by ~5%.  The station name compare function was
2520    something of a hot spot, and optimising it yielded a nice improvement.
2521
[690fdab]2522  + Allow splay legs to be disabled in when printing and exporting.  Mostly
2523    addresses #60.
2524
2525  + SVG export now shows splay legs thinner and in grey.  See #60.
2526
2527  + Fix export of rotated plans and tilted elevations - previously plans were
2528    always aligned with North up, and elevations which weren't exactly side on
2529    were exported as plans.  Reported by Stuart Bennett.
2530
2531  + Fix offset bounding box for exported elevations.
2532
2533  + In print/export dialog the bearing value now wraps if you scroll up past
2534    360 or down past 0.
2535
2536  + Fix greying out of LRUD-based controls in the print/export dialog when the
2537    view is tilted (i.e. not plan or elevation).  This stopped working in
2538    1.2.18 when the pan and tilt spin controls were changed from integer- to
2539    real-valued ones.
[dfe8d05]2540
2541  + Printouts now show LRUD as pale grey arrows from the station they are
2542    measured from.  Based on patch from Michael Sargent.  Closes #65.
2543
[690fdab]2544  + Take LRUD into account for printout size.  Fixes #72, reported by Erin
2545    Lynch.
[dfe8d05]2546
[690fdab]2547  + Update movie export code to work with latest version of FFmpeg.
2548
2549  + Make "Show Log" a toggle, so you can click on the button to take a look at
2550    the log, and a second click returns you to the survey view.
2551
2552  + (Microsoft Windows version): Open the font file in binary mode - it looks
2553    like we were lucky and the font file (or at least its current version)
2554    would have loaded OK in text mode despite being binary data.
2555
2556  + (Microsoft Windows version): Exporting to files with non-ASCII filenames
2557    should now work.
[dfe8d05]2558
2559* cavern:
2560
2561  + Allow tape or backtape to be omitted.  Reported by Erin Lynch.
2562
2563  + Grid convergence is now corrected for when using automatically
2564    calculated declinations (*declination auto <X> <Y> <Z>).  Requested
2565    by Mateusz Golicz on the mailing list.
2566
2567  + Clear any cached calculated declination upon another *declination auto
2568    with different coordinates.  Previously if the date stayed the same,
2569    a previously cached declination for the old coordinates was used.
2570
[3ca8ad2]2571  + Fix check for end of version number array in *require.  We would check up
[dfe8d05]2572    to 12 version components, the last 9 being bogus.  In practice, *require is
2573    only likely to be used with up to three components, so this wouldn't be an
2574    issue.
2575
2576  + *begin with an invalid prefix could cause a crash in some cases.  Fixed
2577    by patch from Colin Watson.
2578
[690fdab]2579  + Report column locations for errors to do with readings.
2580
[dfe8d05]2581* Merge translation updates from Jean-Marc.
2582
2583* img library: Better document which members can be set when writing.
2584  Highlighted by email query about use of img API from Владимир Георгиев.
2585
[690fdab]2586* Document how *declination interacts with *calibrate declination if both are
2587  used in the same dataset.
2588
[dfe8d05]2589* doc/3dformat.htm: Update details of how changes to the current label buffer
2590  are encoded to reflect changes in v8.  Reported by Angus Sawyer.
2591
2592* Use docbook2man instead of docbook-to-man to generated Unix man pages
2593  from SGML source.  The latter seems to be no longer actively maintained, and
2594  docbook2man now does a similarly good job.
2595
2596* Use https for survex.com links, and for other sites which support it.
2597
[cd746b9]2598Changes in 1.2.26 (2016-01-07):
2599
2600* aven:
2601
2602  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix to be able to process .svx files with
2603    cavern again.
2604
[8ee50db]2605* (Microsoft Windows version): Simplify upgrading process with innosetup
2606  installer - if Survex is already installed, we now just install to the same
2607  location and use the same start menu folder.
2608
2609* (Linux version): survex.spec: Update for filetype metadata change in 1.2.25.
2610  Fixes #79, reported by James Begley.
2611
2612* (Linux version): survex.spec: Fix to work with RPM 4.13.  Fixes #79, reported
2613  by James Begley.
2614
[cd5cd8f]2615Changes in 1.2.25 (2016-01-05):
[4e92bec]2616
[cd5cd8f]2617* aven:
[4e92bec]2618
[cd5cd8f]2619  + Drop broken code which attempts to fix 2D pitches.  Fixes #73, reported by
2620    Erin Lynch.  #76 tracks the issue the removed code was trying (but failing)
2621    to address.
[4e92bec]2622
[cd5cd8f]2623  + When animating, don't try to update station info based on mouse movement
2624    over the survey tree.
[4e92bec]2625
[cd5cd8f]2626  + Further improve code to handle cavern subprocess in aven.
[4e92bec]2627
[cd5cd8f]2628  + Fix jump to error for filenames containing colons when the error location
2629    doesn't have a column number.  Bug noted by Jenny Black.
[4e92bec]2630
[cd5cd8f]2631  + If we encounter bad UTF-8 in cavern output, replace it with a red and white
2632    ? in a diamond (previously we gave up showing output at the first bad
2633    sequence).  This can happen if you process a .svx file which isn't UTF-8
2634    encoded.
[4e92bec]2635
[cd5cd8f]2636  + (Unix version): Don't try to set the terminal window title when opening an
2637    editor from the cavern log window - gnome-terminal no longer supports this,
2638    and there doesn't seem to be a portable option for specifying the title for
2639    terminals which do still support this.
[4e92bec]2640
[cd5cd8f]2641  + (Microsoft Windows version): Also quote for cmd.exe so that paths with
2642    spaces in work reliably.  Reported by Marco Cotto.
[4e92bec]2643
[cd5cd8f]2644* cavern:
[4e92bec]2645
[cd5cd8f]2646  + Improve error for mismatched fore/back-sight plumbs, reported by Andy
2647    Edwards (see #78).
[4e92bec]2648
[cd5cd8f]2649  + Fix to use correct sd for backcompass.  We were using zero instead, the
2650    most obvious effect of which was that the threshold for warning about
2651    differing COMPASS and BACKCOMPASS was about 71% of what it should have
2652    been, so we were warning in more cases than we should have been.
[4e92bec]2653
[cd5cd8f]2654  + Implement support for specifying a length on backsights - if you're using
2655    something like a disto-x, you'll get a distance reading for the backsight
2656    too.  Fixes #71, reported by Erin Lynch.
[4e92bec]2657
[cd5cd8f]2658  + Make line counting more robust to mixed line ends.  Noticed in example file
2659    from Pete Smart (see #69).
[4e92bec]2660
[cd5cd8f]2661* extend: New --show-breaks option which adds a leg flagged as surface survey
2662  between each points at which a loop has been broken.  Suggested by Jenny
2663  Black.
[4e92bec]2664
[cd5cd8f]2665* (Unix version): Update filetype metadata to work with modern desktops.
[4e92bec]2666
[cd5cd8f]2667* Fix incorrect reporting of errors reading and writing processed survey data.
2668  Since 1.2.8, the error strings corresponding to IMG_CANTOPENOUT,
2669  IMG_BADFORMAT and IMG_DIRECTORY have been mixed up (this doesn't affect
2670  external programs using the img library, only Survex).  Reported by Jenny
2671  Black.
[4e92bec]2672
[cd5cd8f]2673* Add missing options to extend man page and --help output.  Noted by Jenny
2674  Black.
[4e92bec]2675
[cd5cd8f]2676* Document Document Ctrl+cursor keys for rotating and tilting in aven man page.
[4e92bec]2677
[cd5cd8f]2678* Fix broken SGML markup in manual.
[4e92bec]2679
[cd5cd8f]2680* Fix typo in manual reported by Jenny Black.
[4e92bec]2681
[cd5cd8f]2682* Update vim syntax file for newer commands, etc.
[4e92bec]2683
[cd5cd8f]2684* Minor translation updates.  Thanks to Piotr Strębski and Jean-Marc.
[4e92bec]2685
[cd5cd8f]2686* Fix to compile with FFmpeg 2.9.  Reported by Andreas Cadhalpun in

[4e92bec]2688
[cd5cd8f]2689* Stop maintaining ChangeLog files.  They make merging patches harder, and stop
2690  'git cherry-pick' from working as it should.  The git repo history should be
2691  sufficient for complying with GPLv2 2(a).
[4e92bec]2692
[cd5cd8f]2693* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer requires admin privileges on Vista
2694  and later and OS versions older than Vista are past end of life, so drop code
2695  which tries to set up the registry differently depending if we have admin
2696  privileges or not.
[4e92bec]2697
[52dad0e]2698Changes in 1.2.24 (2015-09-23):
2699
2700* aven:
2701
2702  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix the cavern log window.  Reported by Brian
2703    Clipstone.
2704
2705  + (Microsoft Windows version): Add workaround to avoid breakage in Therion.
2706    Reported by Jenny Black.
2707
2708  + If wx was built with thread support, aven now runs cavern from a separate
2709    thread, which works much better under wxMSW (where we can't use select),
2710    and also seems a bit smoother on Linux.
2711
2712  + Fix handling of encoding of filenames when the operating system has no
2713    locale installed corresponding to the language selected for Survex's
2714    messages.
2715
2716  + Undo accidentally committed debugging code which was sending message to
2717    the terminal in 1.2.23.
2718
2719* (Linux version): configure now looks first for wx-config-3.0, which Fedora's
2720  wx3 packages have.  Reported by James Begley.
2721
2722* Indonesian translation fully up to date again.
2723
2724* Manual: Document anonymous stations, based on the text from NEWS.  Reported
2725  by Wookey.
2726
[1ff33eb]2727Changes in 1.2.23 (2015-09-06):
[1ed104f]2728
2729* aven:
2730
2731  + Updating the cavern log window is now much smoother, especially on slower
2732    machines.
2733
2734  + Show "busy" mouse cursor while processing survey data.
2735
2736  + Fix an assertion if you try to start processing a survex file while one is
2737    already being processed.
2738
2739  + Processing a .svx file with an error now still adds it to the file history.
2740    Reported by Martin Green.
2741
[d56a2d4]2742  + Fix the orientation of the starting end of tubes.
2743
2744* cavern:
2745
2746  + New *ref command to allow specifying an external reference (e.g. where to
2747    find the original survey notes).
2748
2749  + Drop support for showing percentage progress in cavern.  It's confusing in
2750    a multiple-file dataset as it shows progress in the current file so jumps
2751    around.  It also slows down processing, and on a slow machine you'd don't
2752    want that, while on a fast machine processing isn't slow enough for the
2753    progress display to be useful.
[1ed104f]2754
2755* French translation is now completely up to date, thanks to Michel Bovey.
2756
[d56a2d4]2757* Bundle proj's EPSG and ESRI code lists in the installers for MS Windows and
2758  OS X so that things like "*cs EPSG:29903" work.  Reported by Graham Mullan.
2759
[1ed104f]2760* (Microsoft Windows version): Process survey data with aven rather than
2761  running cavern.
2762
[53b6a5a]2763* (Microsoft Windows version): Installer built with InnoSetup 5.5.6 (recent
2764  releases have been built with 5.5.3) to see if that solves Ray Duffy's
2765  reported issue with not having file associations for .svx files created.
2766
[7f7dbd5]2767Changes in 1.2.22 (2015-08-17):
[d225571]2768
2769* aven:
2770
2771  + Ensure that the window has a depth buffer.  Whether it does by default
2772    seems to vary depending on OS and maybe graphics card.  Fixes #55 (terrain
2773    is no longer visible through itself), and also the rendering of passage
2774    tubes.  Thanks to Martin Green for pointing me in the right direction for
2775    finding this fix.
2776
2777* cavern:
2778
2779  + Fix *declination with an angle to actually work.
2780
2781  + Fix assertion if we try to identify a hanging survey by an anonymous
2782    station.
2783
[7f7dbd5]2784  + Improve errors for invalid survey names in *begin, *end, *equate and
2785    *export.
2786
[2d865b7]2787Changes in 1.2.21 (2015-07-28):
[31e9b72]2788
[03c259e]2789* aven:
2790
[2d865b7]2791  + Fix exporting to KML and other text-based formats to always use "." for the
2792    decimal separator - previously "," would be used when the user's locale
2793    specified this for the decimal separator.  Reported by Jan Schorn.
2794
[22f17f1]2795  + Implement exporting of survey legs in KML format.
2796
[03c259e]2797  + Put "paddle" placemarker icons on stations in exported KML files, using the
2798    same colour coding for entrances, fixed points and exported points as aven
2799    does.
2800
[2d865b7]2801  + Remove the "Coordinate projection" field from the print dialog, as it isn't
2802    relevant there.  Reported by Wookey.
2803
2804  + Fix the initial scale for small caves (since 1.2.18 the initial scale has
2805    been too small).  Reported by Wookey.
2806
2807  + Don't rescale if the same file is reloaded, but adjust the volume diameter
2808    as appropriate.
2809
[03c259e]2810  + Use wxGetenv() to read the SURVEXEDITOR variable, so we can accept Unicode
2811    values on Windows.
2812
2813* cavern:
2814
[22f17f1]2815  + Fix coordinate systems using latitude and longitude - PROJ.4 wants these in
2816    radians, but we were passing degrees, which would generally cause the
2817    conversion to the output coordinate system to fail.  Reported by Wookey.
2818
[2d865b7]2819  + Fix *fix with standard deviations when *cs is in use, give an error for use
2820    of *fix with standard deviations before *cs.
2821
2822  + Add new *declination command with support for setting the declination
2823    automatically from the IGRF model based on the survey date.  Thanks to the
2824    Therion developers for the IGRF support code, which we're reusing.
[1687a13]2825    Fixes #54, reported by Wookey.
2826
2827  + Allow the units for the zero error to be specified, making it easier to
2828    specify calibration with a scale if you measure the zero error externally
2829    (rather than using the instrument itself).  Fixes #61, reported by Andrew
2830    Atkinson.
[2d865b7]2831
2832  + Report the error from PROJ when coordinate conversion fails as part of the
2833    actual error rather than on a separate line.
[22f17f1]2834
[03c259e]2835  + Fix use after free after *solve.  This only occurs if a leg between the two
2836    exact same stations appears right before and right after the *solve, which
2837    is unlikely in real data, but the testsuite has an instance of this.  This
2838    was introduced by the repeat leg averaging added in 1.2.17.
2839
2840  + Fix small memory leak when solving network.  This doesn't really matter
2841    when solving at the end of processing as cavern will exit after that, but
2842    if *solve is used we continue processing after solving.
2843
2844* Remove compatibility handling for specifying a country variant of a language
2845  in SURVEXLANG using "-" with a lower case country code (e.g. "en-us") - we
2846  changed to the standard "en_US" way back in 2001.  This code was mangling
2847  character sets with a "-" in, and is no longer useful.
2848
2849* Ignore any "@<something>" modifier in the language code.
2850
[2d865b7]2851* Improve documentation of magnetic declination handling, and cover the new
2852  "*DECLINATION" command.
2853
[ab3b4a9]2854* Document aven's command line options in the manual and its man page.
2855  Reported by Jenny Black.
2856
2857* Point to '*case' and '*truncate' from the 'SEE ALSO' sections of each other's
2858  documentation.
2859
[22f17f1]2860* Remove references to SpeleoGen from the documentation - it hasn't been
2861  updated for many years, and can't read recent versions of the .3d format.
2862
2863* Strip documentation references to obsolete versions of MS Windows.
2864
[2d865b7]2865* doc/HACKING.htm: Update list of debian packages to install to build from git.
2866
[7027ea1]2867Changes in 1.2.20 (2015-06-26):
[0eaf4b1]2868
2869* aven:
2870
[6de8e942]2871  + When printing, use the top margin rather than the right margin to calculate
[31e9b72]2872    the height of the printable area.  In practice, the two values seem to be
2873    the same or very similar by default.
[0eaf4b1]2874
2875  + Avoid assertion if the about dialog image fails to load.  Reported by Phil
2876    Maynard.
2877
2878  + Optimise the size of the about dialog images.
2879
[7027ea1]2880  + Add support for reading terrain data which isn't in a .zip file.
2881
2882  + Force a refresh after loading terrain data so that it gets displayed right
2883    away.
2884
2885  + Make checks for terrain data extensions in zip files case insensitive.
[6de8e942]2886
2887  + If reading terrain data fails, always report an error and never try to
2888    display it.
2889
2890* cavern: Allow clino readings in diving style data, suggested by Andrew
2891  Atkinson.  Currently these readings are ignored, but a future version will
2892  check that they're consistent with the angle given by the depth gauge and
2893  tape, and perform suitable averaging.
2894
[0eaf4b1]2895* Remove lingering traces of svxedit.
2896
2897* configure: Fix to allow compiling without libav/ffmpeg, as was possible
2898  before 1.2.19.
2899
2900* (Unix version): Install the filetype and aven application icons under
2901  /usr/share/icons/hicolor, which is where they're expected to be these days.
2902
2903* (Unix version): Add %f to Exec in survex-aven.desktop.
2904
2905* (Mac OS X version): Remove useless extra copy of about box images from OS X
2906  disk image.
2907
[6de8e942]2908* (Mac OS X version): Only ship one copy of each of the translations.
2909
[0eaf4b1]2910* (Mac OS X version): Reduce the size of the aven binary by disabling a load of
2911  libav features we don't use.
2912
2913* (Microsoft Windows version): Reduce the size of the aven binary by disabling
2914  a load of libav features we don't use.
2915
2916* (Microsoft Windows version): Update message files to fix a missing Chinese
2917  message in the installer.
2918
[1dc99d1]2919Changes in 1.2.19 (2015-06-18):
[f96ac931]2920
2921* aven:
2922
2923  + Fix exporting to GPX, KML and HPGL, which all failed to write the header to
2924    the exported file in 1.2.18.
2925
[2dac61e1]2926  + Add exporting to Survex .pos format.
2927
[4b67f71]2928  + If the measuring line isn't currently active, pressing "Escape" will now
2929    exit full screen mode.
2930
2931  + (Mac OS X version): Change the shortcut for full screen mode to be the
2932    standard Ctrl+Command+F (rather than Shift+Command+F which we have been
2933    using since 1.2.7).
[2dac61e1]2934
[f96ac931]2935  + (Mac OS X version): When we centre the view on the station this can
2936    generate a mouse move event, so clear the variable which says we are
2937    dragging before we process a left click on a station.  This avoids random
2938    rotations of the survey when clicking on a station, reported in #47 by Hugh
[2dac61e1]2939    St. Lawrence.
[f96ac931]2940
2941  + (Mac OS X version): Force use of a non-native toolbar to stop the toolbar
2942    icons from being rescaled and looking fuzzy.
2943
2944  + (Mac OS X version): Remove code added in 1.2.18 which tries to set stop the
2945    toolbar icons from being rescaled, but which requires an unreleased version
2946    of wxWidgets, had a typo in, and doesn't actually seem to work anyway.
2947
2948  + (Mac OS X version): Drop out of full screen mode if the mouse is mode to
2949    the top of the screen, since we can't seem to display the menu bar in this
2950    case like we do on other platforms.
2951
[739440f]2952  + (Mac OS X version): Enable aven's movie export feature.
2953
[2dac61e1]2954  + (Mac OS X version): Enable wxDisplay when building wxWidgets to better
2955    support multi-monitor setups.
2956
[f96ac931]2957  + (Mac OS X version): Silence warning visible when aven is run from a
2958    terminal about a missing CFBundleTypeRole.
2959
[4b67f71]2960  + When reading terrain data from a .zip file, report an error if the .zip
2961    file is bad, or if it doesn't contain any terrain data we recognise.
2962
[f96ac931]2963  + Tweak error message in terrain reading code to distinguish two failure
2964    cases.
2965
[2dac61e1]2966  + Add viewing angles and scale to footer, and shorten some of the other items
2967    to make room for this extra information.  (Fixes ticket #52, reported by
2968    Erin Lynch)
2969
2970  + If the footer is wider than the printout width, scale down the font used
2971    so that it exactly fits; if the footer is narrower, than space out the
2972    items in in so it uses the full width.
[f96ac931]2973
2974  + If the saved size for aven's window exceeds the current display size
2975    (mostly likely because we're now plugged into a smaller monitor), then
2976    reduce the size of the window to fit the display.  If the saved size is <
2977    (480x320), increase it to at least that, as aven isn't usable in a smaller
2978    window.
2979
[2dac61e1]2980  + Remove crude bodge which tries to pick a nicer initial window size when
2981    using wxWidgets without wxDisplay on a multi-monitor setup - aven now opens
2982    with the same size window it had when it was closed, so the initial size is
2983    only relevant on the first ever run.
[f96ac931]2984
2985* Assorted translation updates.  Notably Indonesian is at 100% again.
2986
2987* Stop trying to catch and report signals.  The only real reason to do it is so
2988  we can say "Bug in program detected! Please report this to the authors"
2989  before we exit, but when the program crashes that's pretty obvious.  In aven
2990  we try to pop up a message box for this message, which may fail due to
2991  whatever caused the signal, while with the command line tools there's no
2992  great benefit over just letting the shell report the signal.
2993
[4b67f71]2994* Use pkg-config to probe for libav and proj, which sorts out the correct flags
2995  for building on OS X against a static install of libav.
2996
[3f02aa4]2997Changes in 1.2.18 (2015-06-03):
[2595419]2998
[4a8031f]2999* aven:
[a5670c7]3000
[4a8031f]3001  + Add support for reading terrain data (from a zip file containing either an
3002    SRTM .hgt file, or an ESRI .bil file and associated metadata files), and
3003    rendering it as a transparent surface.
[a5670c7]3004
[4a8031f]3005  + Remove actions from 'Orientation' and 'Rotation' menus which you wouldn't
3006    sanely want to perform from the menu.
[a5670c7]3007
[4a8031f]3008  + Create a "Colour by" submenu of the "View" menu to house the various
3009    colouring options.
[a5670c7]3010
[4a8031f]3011  + Add "Colour by Gradient" and "Colour by Length".
[a5670c7]3012
[4a8031f]3013  + Make the button to dismiss the "About" dialog "OK" rather than "Close",
3014    which seems more logical, and also allows the dialog to be closed by
3015    pressing "Escape".
[a5670c7]3016
[38e5701]3017  + Destroy any existing clipping region before we write the page footer.
3018    Hopefully solves ticket #52, reported by Erin Lynch.
3019
[4a8031f]3020  + Don't round bearing and tilt angles to integers when printing and
3021    exporting.
[a5670c7]3022
[38e5701]3023  + Add passage export for EPS format.  (Partly addresses ticket #4)
3024
3025  + Add JSON export.  This should be regarded as experimental, and the format
3026    is quite likely to change.
3027
[4a8031f]3028  + Pressing F6 now toggles the display of rendering stats, currently FPS
3029    (Frames Per Second) and the number of triangles in the terrain mesh.
[a5670c7]3030
[4a8031f]3031  + Add a menu item and toolbar button to show the cavern log window if the
3032    currently shown survey data was processed by aven.  Reported by Hugh St
3033    Lawrence in #47, and by Dave Clucas and others previously on the list.
3034
3035  + Add "Save Log" button to Aven's cavern log window.
3036
3037  + In cavern log window, highlight "error" markers in red and "warning"
3038    markers in orange.
3039
3040  + Rework code to read cavern's output.  In particular, we no longer mix
3041    buffered and non-buffered system calls.
3042
3043  + Aven's support for reading colours and font sizes for printouts from
3044    print.ini has never worked - the contents of the ini files are ignored due
3045    to a bug which has been there since the code was added in 2005 - but nobody
3046    has ever complained.  So just strip out that code entirely - we should
3047    support setting the colours and font sizes, but a GUI interface for setting
3048    them would be better.
3049
3050  + Fix to compile with a Unicode build of wxWidgets 2.8.  Reported by Bill
3051    Gee.
3052
3053  + Take the width of the messages used above the compass and clino into
3054    account when calculating how much space to allow for them - now the labels
3055    won't overlap or be cut off in translations where they are long.
3056
3057  + (Mac OS X version): Attempt to address the size of the toolbar icons.
3058
3059* cavern:
[0476b10]3060
[38e5701]3061  + Reject *fix with SDs which aren't all positive.  (fixes#2, reported by
3062    susscorfa).
3063
[4a8031f]3064  + Use the currently set units when outputting measurements in warnings,
[38e5701]3065    errors, and the stats at the end of the run.  Requested by Bill Gee.
[4a8031f]3066
3067  + Include column number when a *include file isn't found.
3068
3069  + Show 'error' in front of error messages, like we show 'warning' in front of
3070    warnings.  Fixes #48, reported by Wookey.
3071
3072  + Increase the threshold for warning that fore and back measurements differ
3073    from 2 SDs to 3 SDs.
3074
3075* findentrances: If the 3d file specifies the coordinate system, use it.
3076
3077* svxedit: Remove svxedit - while an editor with built-in knowledge of survex
3078  would be nice to have, svxedit doesn't really offer that, and it looks ugly
3079  in a modern desktop.
[a5670c7]3080
[dd65182]3081* If we run out of memory while reading a processed survey data file, include
3082  the filename in the error message.
3083
[4a8031f]3084* Many translation updates - notably Indonesian and Russian are now the two
3085  most complete translations.
[dd65182]3086
[4a8031f]3087* (Microsoft Windows version): Add code page 1252 mappings for fancy quotes.
[dd65182]3088
[4a8031f]3089* Transliterate gradient and infinity symbols if the current character set
3090  lacks them.
[dd65182]3091
[4a8031f]3092* Add SVG version of .plt icon.
3093
3094* Manual:
3095
3096  + Add complete list of quantities you can set SDs for.  Thanks for Wookey for
3097    highlighting that the previous list was incomplete.
3098
3099  + Document averaging of a group of repeated readings.
[dd65182]3100
[4a8031f]3101  + Add a link to the sample data from the manual.
[dd65182]3102
[4a8031f]3103  + Remove references to contact addresses which are no longer there.  Remove
3104    offer to post people floppies, and references to a CD image which isn't
3105    available for download.
3106
3107* Remove non-breaking spaces from the diffpos and extend manual pages, as they
3108  actually make the output formatting worse (presumably these used to work
3109  around a since-fixed bug in one of the docbook processing tools).
[2595419]3110
[4a8031f]3111* doc/TODO.htm: Update.
[dd65182]3112
[3f02aa4]3113* Fix to compile without warnings with 'g++ --std=gnu++11'.
3114
[1646310]3115Changes in 1.2.17 (2015-02-24):
[a6064e2]3116
3117* MacOS X version:
3118
3119  + Update INSTALL file with current status.
3120
[e067870]3121  + Aven.app now has a custom icon.
[9e053fc]3122
[e067870]3123  + Add icons for all the filetypes supported.
3124
3125  + Add Finder actions for .svx, .3d, .plt and .pos files.
[9e053fc]3126
3127  + aven: Hide the status bar and tool bar in Full Screen mode, as wx doesn't
3128    currently do this for us.
3129
[a6064e2]3130  + aven: Fix short-cut for toggling Full Screen mode.
3131
3132  + aven: Make "About" menu item appear.
3133
[9e053fc]3134  + aven: Fix "Close" button in about dialog.
3135
3136  + aven: Make custom cursors black with a white outline to match the standard
3137    OS X cursor.
3138
[e067870]3139  + svxedit: Now wrapped up in an application bundle as svxedit.app.  It
3140    still doesn't really work like a standard app though - e.g. you can't load
3141    files from Finder (instead run svxedit.app and use File->Open), the font
3142    size of most menu items is wrong, the icon for the app is the wish icon
3143    rather than the svxedit icon, shortcuts use Ctrl not the Cmd key, and
3144    probably more.  I'd probably recommend using another editor (OS X comes
3145    with TextEdit.app for example).
3146
3147  + The documentation is now in a "Docs" directory alongside the apps, rather
3148    than in the rather less obvious "share/doc/survex" directory.
3149
[a6064e2]3150  + Default to building for x86_64, since all modern Macs are 64 bit.
3151
[9e053fc]3152  + Disable use of liblzma when building wxWidgets for OS X, which was
3153    preventing the build from working on OS X 10.6.8.
3154
3155  + Download wx sources from SF via redirecting link.  Thanks to David A.
3156    Riggs.
3157
3158  + buildmacosx.sh: Handle the mount point for the disk image containing a
3159    space.
3160
[4baea3a]3161  + Link with a static build of PROJ for doing coordinate system conversions.
[9e053fc]3162
3163  + Build wx with --disable-webview to avoid a compilation failure on OS X
3164    10.10.1.
3165
3166  + Use wx-config --cc and --cxx to get the compilers to use for building
3167    everything else, as wx adds options to them which otherwise cause linking
3168    errors.
3169
[4baea3a]3170  + The diskimage (.dmg) file is now compressed with bzip2, which gives a
3171    smaller download.  This means OS X 10.4 is required, but we probably
3172    already need at least 10.5 because that's the minimum version which the
3173    wxWidgets build supports by default.
3174
[e067870]3175  + Remove unused files and copies of files from the diskimage.
3176
[a6064e2]3177* cavern: If the same leg is repeated consecutively, average the readings and
3178  treat as a single leg.
3179
[9e053fc]3180* dump3d: Report SEPARATOR used by the file being read.
3181
3182* aven.svg: Fix visual glitch in SVG icon for aven.  Noted by David A. Riggs.
3183
3184* aven:
3185
3186  + Greatly reduce flicker when mouse is moved to the top of the screen in full
3187    screen mode and the menu bar reappears.
3188
3189  + For export formats where scaling is supporting, aven now actually uses the
3190    scale specified in the export dialog (previously it ignored this and used
3191    1:500).
3192
3193  + Reimplement animation so that it's based on angular change per unit of
3194    elapsed time, rather than averaging the time take for the last two scene
3195    redraws.  This gives smoother animation in the face of variable load and
3196    scene redraw time, and should be more consistent between platforms.
3197
3198  + Switching to a point of the compass during auto-rotation now jumps straight
3199    there rather than the two animations fighting.
3200
3201  + Reduce the maximum auto-rotation speed, as the previous limit was uselessly
3202    fast.
3203
3204  + Disable stepping the rotation angle when animating (previously we only did
3205    when rotating).
3206
[1646310]3207  + Speed up start-up a bit - rather than loading icons from individual PNG
3208    files on disk, compile them into the aven binary.
3209
3210* (Unix version): Add "MimeType" field to desktop files so that file
3211  associations work out of the box with modern desktop environments.
3212
3213* Add start of Hungarian translation from Imre Balogh.
3214
3215* Merge in many updates to the Russian translation from "vsuhachev".
3216
3217* Assorted minor updates to other translations.
3218
3219* Create scalable (SVG) versions of file type icons.
[e067870]3220
[a6064e2]3221* doc/manual.sgml: Remove $Id and $Date markers, as they don't get expanded now
3222  we're using git.
3223
[1646310]3224* tests/: Improve test coverage in a few places:
3225
3226  + Extend tests of fore and back sights to test calibration of the back
3227    compass.
3228
3229  + Test "Can't calibrate angular and length quantities together" error.
3230
3231  + Check that "*set names ." works when "." is also the decimal point.
[a6064e2]3232
[03d0e8b]3233Changes in 1.2.16 (2014-10-17):
[9aa10ad]3234
3235* aven: Add KML export (stations only currently).
3236
[f480117d]3237* aven: Allow measuring line to measure from anonymous stations.  (Fixes #44)
3238
[9aa10ad]3239* aven: Fix corrupted names in exported files.
3240
3241* aven: Fix error log window under wxWidgets >= 2.9 to include the system
3242  information before the first log message like it does under wxWidgets 2.8.
3243
3244* cavern: Add support for "*cs JTSK" and "*cs JTSK03".
3245
3246* tests/: Improve test coverage.
3247
[7bd113b]3248* Translation updates for many languages, plus the start of translations to
3249  Greek and Polish.
[9aa10ad]3250
3251* Fix to build against wxWidgets 3.0 built with assertions disabled.  Reported
3252  by Martin Sluka.
3253
3254* Fix warnings when compiling with clang (which is the default compiler on
3255  Mac OS X).  Reported by Martin Sluka.
3256
[44f51ca]3257Changes in 1.2.15 (2014-08-14):
3258
3259* cavern: The *cs command now also supports "long-lat", "s-merc" (for "Web
3260  Mercator"), EPSG and ESRI codes, "eur79z30", "ijtsk" and "ijtsk03".  This
3261  means that we now support all the coordinates systems which Therion does,
3262  except for a few which don't have X=East and Y=North.  The documentation
3263  for *cs has also been improved.
3264
3265* aven: We no longer persist full screen mode between runs - it's not a
3266  standard behaviour of desktop programs, and it's too easy to go into full
3267  screen mode from the menu and then not be able to get out again because you
3268  don't know the required key shortcut. (ticket#39)
3269
3270* aven: When in full screen mode, moving the mouse to the top of the screen now
3271  makes the menu bar appear.  This provides a non-shortcut way out of full
3272  screen mode, as well as making it easier to perform other operations while in
3273  full screen mode.  The current implementation gives an annoyingly flickery
3274  transition, but hopefully we can improve this in future. (ticket#39)
3275
3276* (MacOS X version): If built with wxWidgets >= 3.1.0 (which is still in
3277  development), we now call EnableFullScreenView() which improves the full
3278  screen mode experience on OS X 10.7 and later.
3279
3280* img library: Improve documentation for img_ERROR_INFO.
3281
3282* tests/: Ship some missing .out files and compare.tst.
3283
3284* tests/: cavern.tst testcase back2 is now actually used.  Fix a bug in this
3285  testcase, and extend it to cover a variant of the situation reported as a bug
3286  in therion by Bill Gee to the therion list.
3287
3288* (Linux version) survex.spec: Add run-time requirement on proj and proj-epsg
3289  for the survex package and on tk for the svxedit package.
3290
[6a87cce]3291Changes in 1.2.14 (2014-07-05):
[5c676e2]3292
[1efeb6d]3293* img library: Add ability to store a PROJ4 string describing the coordinate
3294  system in use in 3d v8 files.
3295
3296* aven: If the 3d file specifies a coordinate system, then use it for exporting
3297  to formats which need to know (currently GPX).  If the input file doesn't
[6a87cce]3298  specify the coordinate system, allow the user to enter a PROJ4 string in the
3299  export dialog.
[1efeb6d]3300
[ea59b58]3301* aven: You can now quickly zoom to a particular area by holding down the
3302  "Shift" key and dragging with the left mouse button to create a rectangular
3303  "rubber band box" around the area you wish to zoom to.  If you release the
3304  "Shift" key while still dragging, the box is centred on the start point
3305  rather than having one corner there.
3306
[26e7fa4]3307* aven: Fix exporting of passage tubes in elevations and extended elevations
3308  - previously up and down were getting drawn across the page!
3309
[5c676e2]3310* aven: Fix "Cancel" to work on the print/export dialog, broken by changes in
3311  1.2.13.  (Reported by Brian Clipstone)
3312
[515b83e]3313* aven: Fix the conditions on which the menu item "Cancel measuring line" is
3314  enabled - previously it was hard to actually cancel it via the menu.
3315  Reported by Hugh St Lawrence.
3316
[5c676e2]3317* aven: Fix wx assertion failures when showing hit test debug view on platforms
3318  such as 64-bit Linux.
3319
[2c5ec88]3320* aven: When viewing from above, show "Plan" above the "clino" which indicates
3321  the tilt angle (instead of "Elevation -90°").
3322
[5c676e2]3323* aven: The extended font data now loads faster, and also uses less memory on
3324  64-bit platforms.
3325
[ea59b58]3326* aven: Dragging the vertical divider between the side panel and the 3D view
3327  now only updates when you finish the drag, as redrawing continuously just
3328  looks clunky except on an ultra-fast machine.
3329
[2c5ec88]3330* aven: (German translation) Abbreviate "Blickrichtung" so it doesn't overfill
3331  the space available in the aven UI.
3332
[1efeb6d]3333* cavern: Add a *cs command to allow setting the coordinate system for *fix
3334  commands, and the coordinate system used for processed survey data.  The
3335  latter is now stored in 3d v8 format files.
[ea59b58]3336
[515b83e]3337* cavern: Add support for 'L' flag (exclude from length) in Compass .dat files
3338  and handle it in the same way as the "DUPLICATE" flag in .svx files.
3339
[6a87cce]3340* cavern: If there's more than one *fix command with coordinates, still
3341  actually fix the second and subsequent ones, to avoid triggering bogus errors
3342  about unconnected surveys.
3343
3344* cavern: If there's more than one *fix command with coordinates, report the
3345  station name of the previous one, plus the file and line number where it was.
3346
[67a0fc6]3347* cavern: Fix handling of the rather contrived case of *fix with no coordinates
3348  followed by *solve and then another *fix with no coordinates not to access
3349  freed memory.
3350
[1efeb6d]3351* dump3d: Report any specified coordinate system.
3352
3353* doc/3dformat.htm: Update to document how the coordinate system is stored.
3354
[2c5ec88]3355* (Microsoft Windows version): Include dump3d in the installer.
3356
[5c676e2]3357* Fix a compiler warning.
3358
3359* Improve test coverage.
3360
[0d365be]3361Changes in 1.2.13 (2014-05-15):
[acbb5b1]3362
[8ccd1d8]3363* aven: Fix --print option to wait for printing to happen before exiting
3364  (previously it would exit right after opening the print dialog, so you
3365  couldn't actually print anything out using it).
3366
[acbb5b1]3367* aven: Increase the threshold for how close the pointer needs to be to a
3368  station from 5 pixels to 7 to try to help touchscreen users.  Reported by
3369  Hugh St Lawrence.
3370
[0d365be]3371* aven: Add "fat finger" mode, toggled by pressing F2, to allow investigating
[8ccd1d8]3372  if increasing the minimum pointer to station threshold helps Hugh's problems
3373  with using aven on a touch screen device.
3374
[acbb5b1]3375* aven: The measuring line was unable to see stations which had just been
3376  revealed by toggling surface or underground legs on - this is now fixed.
3377
3378* aven: Add "hit test grid debug" mode, which shows the hit test grid and how
3379  many entries are in each box (toggled by F3).
3380
3381* aven: Pressing F4 now allows the user to toggle wxWidgets assertion messages
3382  off and back on.
3383
3384* aven: Create the empty hit-test grid data structure lazily, to reduce start
3385  up time a little.
3386
3387* cavern: Improve messages which talk about "tags" and/or "prefixes" in *begin
3388  and *end commands to instead talk about "survey names".
3389
3390* cavern: For ages cavern has warned if you reentered a survey, but this
3391  warning was suppressed if it occurred at the same line of the same file as
3392  the survey was first entered, but this can only happen if you include the
3393  same survey file more than once, which isn't a sensible thing to do for a
3394  file with actual survey data in (you might reasonably do it to set up survey
3395  grade details or something like that).  The warning is now given in this
3396  situation too.
3397
3398* cavern: After 5 warnings about reentering a survey we give up warning about
3399  it, but we used to keep reporting where the survey was originally entered -
3400  this secondary diagnostic message is now silenced when the main message is.
3401
3402* (Microsoft Windows version): Compile C code with optimisation on.
3403
3404* Add the start of a Russian translation, with messages take from therion.
3405
3406* Minor translation updates to French.
3407
3408* Fix compiler warning from GCC.
3409
3410* Testsuite improvements:
3411
3412  + Test that "..." anon station works.
3413
3414  + cavern.tst: Check number of errors returned by all testcases which should
3415    fail and give an error count.
3416
3417  + cavern.tst: Fix to actually fully test everything when builddir != srcdir.
3418
[ad727d8]3419Changes in 1.2.12 (2014-04-14):
[46d12e9]3420
[63e8642]3421* aven: Fix measuring line to show change in altitude rather than altitude
3422  itself (accidentally broken by changes in 1.2.11).  Reported by Brian
3423  Clipstone.
[46d12e9]3424
[ad727d8]3425* aven: Fix printing when built with wxWidgets 3.0.
3426
3427* aven: Several visual improvements to printouts:
3428
3429  + Move the numbers below the scale bar down a little so that they don't
3430    overlap the scale bar ticks.
3431
3432  + Set the clipping region after we draw the page border and info box to avoid
3433    clipping the border in print preview.
3434
3435  + Tidy up the appearance of the compass and elevation arrow.
3436
[63e8642]3437* aven: Fix to build with libav 10.  Reported by Moritz Muehlenhoff in
3438  <http://bugs.debian.org/739332>.
[46d12e9]3439
[63e8642]3440* aven: Fix to build with older libav where avcodec_free_frame() isn't
3441  available.
[46d12e9]3442
[ad727d8]3443* (Linux version) survex.spec: Update spec file used for building RPM packages.
3444
3445* (Unix version): Add "Keywords:" entry to .desktop files.
3446
3447* (Unix version): Enable large file support, mostly to support filing systems
3448  which return 64 bit inode values, such as CIFS mounts.
3449
[63e8642]3450* (Microsoft Windows version): Only allow "A-Z" or "a-z" for driver letters,
3451  rather than any character which is a letter in the current locale.
[46d12e9]3452
[63e8642]3453* Various translation updates.
[46d12e9]3454
[aac3336]3455Changes in 1.2.11 (2014-01-28):
[fb941bfd]3456
3457* aven: Fix wxWidgets assertion when double clicking on an anonymous station.
3458  Reported by Kevin Dixon.
3459
[aac3336]3460* aven: Embed the font data for the first 256 Unicode characters for use in the
3461  survey pane into the compiled aven binary to reduce start up overhead.  Any
3462  additional characters needed are loaded from a data file only if/when a
3463  character >= U+100 is actually needed (as before).
3464
[ad3017d]3465* aven: Fix display of Unicode characters above 256 when there's a character
3466  <= 256 earlier in the same string.
3467
[77bdacf]3468* aven: Use the actual width of Unicode characters above 256 rather than
3469  assuming they are 16 pixels wide.
[ad3017d]3470
3471* aven: If full screen, don't show the side panel when a new file is opened
3472  (e.g. via Ctrl+O).
3473
3474* aven: Don't give an assertion failure when showing passages for a cave with
3475  no vertical extent.  Reported by Jonny Prouty.
3476
3477* aven: Change terminology in print dialog - say "legend" instead of "info
3478  box".
3479
3480* aven: Add option to show the tilt angle as a percentage gradient.
3481
3482* aven: Show the units (degrees, grads, or percent) for the tilt and bearing
3483  indicators.
3484
3485* aven: All length units are now translatable.
3486
[fb941bfd]3487* aven: Split log_fl_error helper function out of CHECK_GL_ERROR macro, which
3488  will reduce code size and also the number of deprecation warnings about
3489  gluErrorString on Mac OS X 10.9.
3490
[ad3017d]3491* (Microsoft Windows version): aven: Try to work around redraw issues related
3492  to the measuring line by redrawing the whole window, which doesn't seem to be
3493  measurably slower.
3494
3495* cavern: If *units is used to try to set units for LEVEL, PLUMB, or POSITION,
3496  give an error rather than quietly ignoring the attempt.
3497
[77bdacf]3498* cad3d: Make cad3d remap control characters and spaces in station names when
3499  generating PLT output in the same way aven does.
3500
[ad3017d]3501* Various translation updates (particular thanks to Eric Madelaine and Dennis
3502  Baudys), including the start of a Bulgarian translation, with messages taken
3503  from Therion and elsewhere.
3504
3505* (Microsoft Windows version): On Microsoft Windows 2000 and newer, use
3506  GetUserDefaultUILanguage() to get the UI language to use.  For older
3507  versions, continue to use GetUserDefaultLCID().
[fb941bfd]3508
3509* (Microsoft Windows version): The Indonesian translation will now be used
3510  automatically when the system language is set to Indonesian.
3511
3512* (Mac OS X version): Fix to build with wx 3.0.0 on OS X 10.9.  Thanks to David
3513  A. Riggs for his work on this.
3514
3515* (Mac OS X version): Update buildmacosx.sh script to use wx 3.0.0, and add a
3516  checksum check for the downloaded wx sources.
3517
3518* Fix a lot of the compiler warnings when building with clang.
3519
[ad3017d]3520* doc/manual.sgml: Add missing quantities to the list documented as accepted by
3521  *units: LEFT, RIGHT, UP/CEILING, DOWN/FLOOR (missing entirely);
3522  BACKCOMPASS/BACKBEARING, BACKCLINO/BACKGRADIENT (missing from the main list,
3523  mentioned in list of the units that can be set for them); COUNT (missing
3524  alternative name for COUNTER); DX/EASTING, DY/NORTHING, DZ/ALTITUDE
3525  (incorrectly listed as X, Y, Z).  Reported by Jonny Prouty.
3526
3527* Test suite: Improve test coverage for cavern.
3528
[0ecf3b1]3529Changes in 1.2.10 (2014-01-15):
3530
3531* aven: Fix assertion if two mouse buttons are held down at the same time.
3532  If dragging with more than one mouse button held down, releasing one causes
3533  another which is still held down to take effect.  Reported by Brian
3534  Clipstone.
3535
[53966d3]3536* aven: If we fail to start the external editor when the user clicks on an
3537  error or warning from cavern, show an error box.
3538
[6f0d0d8]3539* aven: If the survey has a title, add it as a top-level <title> element to
3540  exported SVG files.
3541
3542* aven: Escape '<', '>', and '&' in labels in exported SVG files.
3543
3544* aven: In GPX export, set the <time> element to the datestamp from the 3d
3545  file.
3546
3547* aven: Don't try to write the title if it isn't set or is empty when exporting
3548  GPX files.
3549
3550* aven: Don't bother looking up the printer page setup info when exporting.
3551
[0ecf3b1]3552* (Microsoft Windows version): aven: Fix crash on "File->Print" or
3553  "File->Export" under Windows XP, reported by Brian Clipstone.
3554
3555* (Microsoft Windows version): aven: Fix error dialog about an incorrectly
3556  encoded filename which could occur if run without being asked to load a file
3557  on startup.
3558
3559* (Microsoft Windows version): aven: Compile with optimisation on.
3560
3561* img library, aven: Although processed CMAP data files are often referred to
3562  as "CMAP .XYZ files", it seems that actually, the extension .XYZ isn't used,
3563  rather .SHT (shot variant, produced by CMAP v16 and later), .UNA (unadjusted)
3564  and .ADJ (adjusted) extensions are.  Since we've long checked for .XYZ, we
3565  continue to do so in case anyone is relying on it, but also check for the
3566  other extensions.
3567
3568* img library: Add new "datestamp_numeric" field to struct img giving the
3569  datestamp as a time_t in UTC (or (time_t)-1 if there's no datestamp or we
3570  failed to convert it).  For .3d >= v8, this field is reliable.  We attempt to
3571  convert date strings in .3d <= v7 and CMAP XYZ files, but may get the
3572  timezone wrong.
3573
3574* img library: Fix my_strcasecmp() to handle top-bit set characters better.
3575
[6f0d0d8]3576* cavern: Fix NULL pointer dereference when processing Compass DAT file without
3577  'SURVEY DATE:'.
[0ecf3b1]3578
[6f0d0d8]3579* doc/manual.sgml: Update references to Survex 1.1 which should be to 1.2.
[0ecf3b1]3580
[6f0d0d8]3581* doc/manual.sgml: Note the station length limit Smaps used.
[0ecf3b1]3582
[53966d3]3583* Fix some compiler warnings if built with glibc's fortify source feature
3584  enabled.
3585
[6b6fb4d]3586Changes in 1.2.9 (2014-01-08):
3587
3588* Document --3d-version in cavern man page and the manual.
3589
3590* aven: Fix compilation error in movie export code with recent libavi.
3591
3592* aven: Fix warning on stderr when export a movie as MPEG.
3593
3594* img library: In non-hosted mode, don't define GETC and PUTC if they're
3595  already defined, to allow easy overriding with getc_unlocked() and
3596  putc_unlocked() (which are significantly faster on Linux).
3597
3598* img library: In non-hosted mode, check that int is at least 32 bits,
3599  and if not, use long.  In practice, platforms with 16 bit int are mostly
3600  obsolete, but it's not hard to be portable here.
3601
3602* img library: Add test that img.c and img.h compile in non-hosted mode
3603  (regression test for issue fixed in 1.2.8).
3604
3605* (Microsoft Windows version): aven is now built with wxWidgets 3.0.0.
3606
3607* Update translations from launchpad and from existing similar messages.
3608
3609* Fix some compiler warnings.
3610
[e1f27c4]3611Changes in 1.2.8 (2013-10-29):
[da65891]3612
3613* cavern: Fix handling of anonymous wall stations ('..' by default) to
3614  implicitly set the SPLAY leg flag, as was intended.  Reported by Thomas
3615  Holder.
3616
[e1f27c4]3617* cavern: Tweak .err file output not to lose the space in front of certain
[034141d]3618  statistics when the value gets large.
3619
[a4adf09]3620* cavern: Eliminate redundant progress message when solving simultaneous
3621  equations.
3622
[e1f27c4]3623* aven: Add a format drop down to the export dialog, and only show fields which
3624  are meaningful and supported for the currently selected export format.  The
3625  format defaults to that used most recently.  The "Elements" and "View" boxes
3626  have been swapped in the print and export dialogs as that layout works much
3627  better when the "View" box is hidden.
3628
[0056ee1]3629* aven: Changing checkboxes in the print or export dialog didn't work in 1.2.7
3630  - now works again.  Reported by Anthony Day.
3631
[e1f27c4]3632* aven: Add GPX export (based on findentrances patch from Olaf Kähler).  In
3633  this release the projection which the survey coordinates are in defaults
3634  to the BMN M31 grid used in the Totes Gebirge in Austria.  On Unix, you
3635  can edit ~/.aven and add a new line setting 'input_projection' to a PROJ
3636  projection string.  The ability to specify this projection in a better
3637  way is coming soon.
3638
3639* aven: New export options "Origin in centre" and "Full coordinates" - the
3640  latter fixes #10.  GPX and PLT output implicitly force "full coordinates".
3641
3642* aven: The "Sketch" vector drawing program got renamed to "Skencil" some
3643  time ago, so update references.
3644
3645* aven: Make the Presentation->Play menu item a checkbox, to avoid a warning
3646  with wxMSW 2.9.5.  Reported by Brian Clipstone.
3647
3648* aven: Make right click in an empty presentation mark the current position and
3649  open it to edit, instead of crashing.
3650
3651* aven: Update movie export code to work with latest libav API.  Reported by
3652  Sebastian Ramacher.
3653
3654* aven: Improve reporting of errors during the process of exporting a movie.
3655
3656* aven: Don't try to close the movie if we aren't producing one.
3657
3658* aven: Fix assertion failure when double-clicking on the survey with wx2.9.
3659
3660* aven: Fix to build with wxMSW 2.9.5.
3661
3662* aven: Fix to build with wx 2.9.5 with wx2.8 compatibility disabled.
3663
3664* cad3d: The "Sketch" vector drawing program got renamed to "Skencil" some time
3665  ago, so add a new --skencil option to specify this output format.  The old
3666  name (--sketch) is still recognised for compatibility.
3667
3668* cad3d: Make --marker-size work for Skencil and SVG output.
3669
3670* dump3d: Make --show-dates option show dates for XSECT.
[9fc1cac]3671
[88b54df6]3672* img library:
3673
[e1f27c4]3674  + Fix to work once more when used outside of Survex (missing definition of
3675    max() macro and a bad call to free() in img_close() for a file opened for
3676    reading).
3677
3678  + Use lround() instead of round(), and make the tests around whether we use
3679    the library function or the our fallback implementation saner.
3680
3681  + Fix // comments in C code for portability to pre-C99 compilers which don't
3682    support these as an extension.
[88b54df6]3683
[f807d8bf]3684  + Can now be compiled as C++ as well as as C.
3685
[e1f27c4]3686* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer is now built with a newer version
3687  of Innosetup, and includes translations for all the languages which Survex
3688  itself has any translations for.
3689
3690* (Microsoft Windows version): aven is now built with wxWidgets 2.9.5.
3691
3692* Minor translation updates.
3693
3694* tests/Makefile.am: Distribute files for "normal_bad" testcase.
3695
[e34bebc]3696Changes in 1.2.7 (2013-07-27):
[65d9b6b]3697
[e34bebc]3698* Add support for anonymous stations, which are indicated by one, two or three
3699  separator characters - with the default separator of '.', that means '.',
3700  '..', and '...' are anonymous stations.  Single separator ('.' by default)
3701  is an anonymous non-wall point, double separator ('..' by default)
[a5c74f2]3702  is an anonymous wall point at the end of an implicit splay), and triple
3703  separator ('...' by default) is an anonymous point (with nothing special about
[e34bebc]3704  the leg).  A new *alias command allows '-' to be mapped to '..' for
3705  compatibility with pocket topo: *alias station - ..
[07beaa4]3706
[e34bebc]3707* New version 8 of the 3d format:
[07beaa4]3708
[e34bebc]3709  + Supports new flags img_SFLAG_ANON and img_SFLAG_WALL.
[07beaa4]3710
[e34bebc]3711  + New explicit file-wide flag for 'this is an extended elevation', rather
3712    than modifying the survey title to indicate this.
[da9d788]3713
[e34bebc]3714  + The survey prefix is often unchanged from one leg to the next, so use a
3715    spare flag to compactly indicate when there's no label change.
[da9d788]3716
[e34bebc]3717  + The data style of each leg is now stored.
[da9d788]3718
[e34bebc]3719  + The "processed at" time is stored as seconds since 1970 rather than a
3720    human-readable string.
[da9d788]3721
[e34bebc]3722  + Since 3d v8 features significant changes to the format, the format
3723    documentation for v7 and earlier has been split off into 3dformat-old.htm.
[da9d788]3724
[e34bebc]3725* img library:
[da9d788]3726
[e34bebc]3727  + New station flags img_SFLAG_ANON and img_SFLAG_WALL.
[da9d788]3728
[e34bebc]3729  + Handle .pos files containing unnamed stations - don't suck the next line in
3730    as the station name, and set img_SFLAG_ANON for them.
[da9d788]3731
[e34bebc]3732  + Repurpose the long unused fBinary parameter to img_open_write() as a flags
3733    parameter, and add img_FFLAG_EXTENDED to specify that this is an extended
3734    elevation, in place of appending " (extended)" to the title.  Internally we
3735    still append this to the title (and remove it upon reading) when writing
3736    3d v7 or earlier, but for the new 3d v8 format, this flag is stored
3737    explicitly in the file.
[da9d788]3738
[e34bebc]3739  + img.h: Add comments for the lists of "Leg flags" and "Station flags".
[da9d788]3740
[e34bebc]3741* aven:
[da9d788]3742
[e34bebc]3743  + We now require at least wxWidgets 2.8.0 - it was released over 6 years ago
3744    now, and the wx developers consider even 2.8 to be rather long in the
3745    tooth.  We stopped testing building with wxWidgets 2.6 some time ago, and
3746    formally dropping support for older versions allows a number of workarounds
3747    to be removed from the aven source code.  Also, features deprecated in
3748    wxWidgets 2.9 are no longer used in our code.
[da9d788]3749
[e34bebc]3750  + Don't run incremental search on every key-press, as on a slow machine the
3751    short initial search(es) will take a while but not be useful.  Instead only
3752    actually run the search when we're told there are no more key-presses
3753    queued up.
[da9d788]3754
[e34bebc]3755  + Implement support for including cross-section information in exported SVG
3756    and DXF files (ticket#4).  The DXF export is untested currently.
3757
3758  + Show splay legs faded by default, with menu options to hide them or show
3759    them like other legs.
3760
3761  + Speed up loading a .3d file with cross-sections by using a map to convert
3762    station names to positions.
3763
3764  + In the cavern log window, don't highlight a file:linenumber if there's no
3765    message after it, which avoids highlighting the "Included from" lines
3766    wrongly.
3767
3768  + Fix not to crash when trying to report an error while starting up.
3769
3770  + (MacOS X version): Change the menu shortcut for "Full Screen Mode" to be
3771    the OS X standard shortcut Shift-Command-F (previously we used F11, but
3772    that's used by the desktop).
3773
3774  + Add checks for errors when reading the font file.
[07beaa4]3775
[e34bebc]3776  + Remove useless extra quoting when invoking vim to show the location of an
3777    error from cavern.
[07beaa4]3778
[e34bebc]3779  + Include GL/gl.h before GL/glext.h (needed on Debian wheezy).
[da9d788]3780
[e34bebc]3781  + Use wxValidator to simplify keeping svxPrintDlg member variables and fields
3782    in the dialog in sync.
[da9d788]3783
[e34bebc]3784* cavern:
[3dfffa2]3785
[e34bebc]3786  + Demote errors about invalid dates to warnings, since we've accepted *date
3787    for ages without any checks on the value, and so existing datasets
3788    probably contain invalid dates and dates in other formats.  (ticket#19)
[3dfffa2]3789
[e34bebc]3790  + New *alias command allows '-' to be mapped to '..' for compatibility with
3791    pocket topo: *alias station - ..
[07beaa4]3792
[e34bebc]3793  + We want to warn if there's a clino reading which it would be impossible to
3794    have read from the instrument (e.g. on a -90 to 90 degree scale you can't
3795    read "93" (it's probably a typo e.g. for "39").  However, the gradient
3796    reading from a topofil is typically in the range 0 to 180, with 90 being
3797    horizontal.  Really we should allow the valid range to be explicitly
3798    specified, but for now we infer it from the zero error - if this is within
3799    45 degrees of 90 then we assume the instrument can read between 0 and 180
3800    degrees.
[da9d788]3801
[e34bebc]3802  + If the survey isn't all connected, still run survey tree checks and report
3803    errors and/or warnings which might suggest typo locations.  Thanks to Kevin
3804    Dixon for the report which highlighted this issue.
[da9d788]3805
[e34bebc]3806  + Report a warning if *begin SURVEY has a separator character in SURVEY.
[da9d788]3807
[e34bebc]3808  + Report column numbers as well as line numbers for some cavern errors and
3809    warnings.
[07beaa4]3810
[e34bebc]3811  + Adjust width of node stats table to fit longest count when there are more
3812    than 9999 of a particular order of node.
[07beaa4]3813
[e34bebc]3814  + If the argument to *include has an opening double quote but the closing
3815    double quote is missing, then skip trying to open the file.
[da9d788]3816
[e34bebc]3817  + Move "Station X referred to just once" warning after non-existent survey
3818    check - if both fire, the non-existent survey error is likely to be more
3819    relevant.
[da9d788]3820
[e34bebc]3821  + We no longer follow an error for a bad reading in passage data with a bogus
3822    "End of line not blank" error, but instead check the remaining readings on
3823    the same line.
[da9d788]3824
[e34bebc]3825  + We no longer follow an error about OMIT for a required reading with a bogus
3826    "End of line not blank" error.
[7f6250a]3827
[e34bebc]3828  + Report an error if the scale factor in *calibrate is zero - it doesn't make
3829    sense and probably means someone reversed the arguments to *calibrate.
[3dfffa2]3830
[e34bebc]3831  + Report the parent include files starting from the outermost, as that's more
3832    logical when there are multiple levels involved.
[07beaa4]3833
[e34bebc]3834  + If we were expecting a numeric field and instead get something which starts
3835    with '+', '-', or '.' but which isn't a number, then fix the error to
3836    include that character in the token reported.
[3dfffa2]3837
[e34bebc]3838  + Simplify handling of quantity lists to only recognise 'DEFAULT' as the
3839    first item.
[07beaa4]3840
[e34bebc]3841* cad3d: Check for errors from img_rewind() and report them.
[07beaa4]3842
[e34bebc]3843* dump3d:
[07beaa4]3844
[e34bebc]3845  + Build, install and package dump3d as standard - it's useful for grabbing
3846    info from 3d files in scripts.
[07beaa4]3847
[e34bebc]3848  + Add --show-dates option.
[07beaa4]3849
[e34bebc]3850  + Show only 2 decimal places on coordinates and passage dimensions.
[07beaa4]3851
[e34bebc]3852  + Report the data style of legs.
[da9d788]3853
[e34bebc]3854  + Report if the file is an extended elevation.
3855
3856  + Report img_STOP as STOP rather than CODE_0xffffffff.
[3dfffa2]3857
3858* Test suite:
3859
3860  + cavern.tst: Fix equatenosuchstn testcase (added in 1.2.6) to normalise the
3861    expected output so it passes reliably.
3862
[e34bebc]3863  + cavern.tst: Run diffpos <expected> <actual> so the reports of 'Added' and
3864    'Deleted' stations upon failure are the more natural way round.
3865
[07beaa4]3866  + Add more testcases, expand some existing testcases, and add expected output
3867    for more.
3868
[e34bebc]3869* (Microsoft Windows version): Use wx-config's --cc and --cxx flags to find the
3870  appropriate C and C++ compilers to use, and link mingw build statically to
3871  avoid needing the libgcc DLL (which newer GCC seems to have by default).
[3dfffa2]3872
3873* (Unix version): When determining the character set for command-line tools,
3874  check environmental variable LANG after LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE.
3875
3876* When determining the language, check environmental variable LC_ALL before
3877  LC_MESSAGES and LANG (but after SURVEXLANG).
3878
[e34bebc]3879* If we don't find the message file, only give an error if it was specified
[665183c]3880  with SURVEXLANG, since that is an explicit instruction to Survex, whereas
[e34bebc]3881  LANG, LC_ALL and LC_MESSAGES are essentially system "preferred locale"
3882  settings.
3883
3884* There are a handful of hard-coded English message strings for reporting
3885  errors trying loading message files, etc.  These are all now ASCII, as if we
3886  fail trying to open a message file, it's more likely the encoding isn't
3887  set correctly.
3888
3889* Prune strings we are no longer using and are probably unlikely to use again
3890  into a new file po_codes_dead, so that translators don't get presented with
3891  them to translate.
3892
[07beaa4]3893* Merge lots of translation updates.  Most translations are now complete or
3894  close to complete.
[3dfffa2]3895
3896* Add start of Indonesian translation from Arief Setiadi Wibowo.
3897
[07beaa4]3898* Fix various compiler warnings when building from source.
3899
[e34bebc]3900* Include scripts gdtconvert and gen_img2aven in the source distribution.
3901
[c575465]3902Changes in 1.2.6 (2012-02-23):
[b081031]3903
3904* (Mac OS X version): Fix so that cavern finds its messages when run by aven.
3905
3906* (Microsoft Windows version): Include JPEG images for aven in the installer
3907  package (ticket#35).
3908
3909* cavern: If we have a reference to a station in a non-existent survey, give a
3910  helpful error rather than saying the station hasn't been exported from the
3911  survey.  (Bug reported by Martin Green via email)
3912
3913* aven: Fix to build with a non-Unicode wxWidgets library.  Patch from Olaf
3914  Kahler.
3915
3916* findentrances: Add findentrances utility from Olaf Kahler which produces a
[c575465]3917  .gpx file with waypoints for entrances.  This needs libproj so is disabled
3918  by default for this release - to enable it install the development stuff for
3919  libproj and build survex with:
3920
3921      make FINDENTRANCES=findentrances
3922      make install FINDENTRANCES=findentrances
[b081031]3923
3924* dump3d: Add support for showing img_ERROR_INFO items.
3925
3926* doc/3dformat.htm: Merge in some improvements from Mike McCombe.
3927
3928* Incorporate a French translation from launchpad I'd previously copied the
3929  English version of by mistake.  Attempt to correct mistranslation of "survey
3930  file".
3931
[685116f]3932Changes in 1.2.5 (2012-01-03):
3933
3934* aven:
3935
3936  + The survey tree in the left panel is now in sorted order once more.
3937
3938  + No longer fails with an assertion if used for a long time (we were leaking
3939    an OpenGL list each time one had to be regenerated).
3940
3941  + Now builds with newer FFmpeg library.
3942
3943  + Draw measuring line in front of the indicators rather than behind them.
3944
3945  + Loading a new file (or reloading the current one) no longer invalidates
3946    the OpenGL lists for the compass and clino, so will be a fraction faster.
3947
3948* Improve handling of attempts to look up translated messages before the
3949  message subsystem is fully initialised (which only happens if there's an
3950  error early on).
3951
3952* Improve the survex(7) man page text, and fix it to be marked as section 7 in
3953  the man page source as well as in the filename.
3954
[f15ca67f]3955Changes in 1.2.4 (2012-01-01):
3956
3957* aven:
3958
3959  + A change in 1.2.3 meant that aven tried to use OpenGL before it was
3960    initialised, which doesn't cause problems in some machines, but causes aven
3961    to abort on others.  This is now fixed, and there's a check in place to
3962    help avoid similar issues in future. (ticket#34)
3963
[c505ae0]3964  + Always use metres or feet for the depth colour key, and choose a consistent
[f15ca67f]3965    precision by looking at the depth range. (ticket#30)
3966
3967  + Show the depth units below the colour bar rather than after every value.
3968
3969  + When zooming way in, stay in metres rather than switching to cm.
3970
3971  + On the scale bar, say “1 mile” rather than “1 miles”.
3972
3973* Translation updates for Catalan, French and Slovak.
3974
[5b9942e]3975Changes in 1.2.3 (2011-12-31):
3976
3977* Fix to build with wxWidgets 2.9.2.
3978
3979* (Mac OS X version):
3980
3981  + Processing .svx files from aven now works.
3982
3983  + Remove spurious blank lines from the licence text in "Get Info".
3984
3985  + Don't create the help menu at all, as it is empty (because the "About"
3986    entry goes elsewhere) and sometimes seems to appear in the UI.
3987
3988  + INSTALL.OSX: Update to reflect current status.
3989
3990* aven:
3991
3992  + Fix Y coordinates of surface surveys on printouts.  (Closes #32)
3993
3994  + Improvements to text plotted on the survey pane:
3995
3996    - Support plotting Unicode character points > 256 by lazily loading the
3997      data for them from the font file and plotting them with a direct call to
3998      glBitmap(), which is slower but doesn't require a display list per
3999      character.
4000
4001    - Adjust the spacing from fixed width to putting a one pixel gap either
4002      side of each one character (so two between adjacent glyphs).  Mostly this
4003      reduces the horizontal width, but it adds a pixel for characters like "m"
4004      and two in a few cases.
4005
4006    - Fix .pixelfont file generation to correctly handle characters wider than
4007      8 pixels.
4008
4009  + Fix expected cross shape so don't always reject using texture mapping to
4010    draw crosses.
4011
[3ea0178]4012  + As we read a survey file, eliminate tubes consisting of zero XSECTs as well
4013    as those consisting of just one.  Previously we would trip over the empty
4014    tube later.  Such tubes can for example be created by extend if a splay shot
4015    is the start or end of a tube.
4016
[5b9942e]4017  + Make the green colour used for entrances in the survey tree the same
4018    (slightly darker than before) green used for the entrance blobs.
4019
4020  + Report the version of the library we're actually running with if built
4021    against wx >= 2.9.2.  Make it clear that the version reported is the
4022    version *built* with for wx < 2.9.2.
4023
[3ea0178]4024* extend:
4025
4026  + Copy the end markers for passage tubes.
[5b9942e]4027
[3ea0178]4028  + Preserve left and right data for tubes (previously they were set to -1.0
4029    which means "no info").
4030
4031* img library: Fix incorrect comment in img.h which claimed that img_XFLAG_END
4032  was no longer used - it certainly is!
4033
4034* Use curly double quotes instead of "`" and "'" to quote filenames, etc in
4035  messages, and curly single right quote instead of straight ASCII apostrophe.
4036  Fall back to using straight ASCII versions if we can't represent them in the
4037  current character set.
[5b9942e]4038
[3ea0178]4039* Translation updates for Catalan, French, Slovak and Spanish.
[5b9942e]4040
4041* Test suite:
4042
4043  + Add test coverage for interleaved diving data.
4044
4045  + Add testcase for diving data with topofil-style distance.
4046
[94960ad]4047Changes in 1.2.2 (2011-10-06):
4048
4049* aven:
4050
4051  + Replace the textured-mapped font drawing with an approach based on
4052    glBitmap.  This doesn't suffer from the character alignment issues which
4053    the textured-mapped fonts had, and is actually significantly faster on some
4054    machines.  The current font used is (mostly) fixed-width, but this isn't an
4055    inherent limitation - it was just the easiest font data to convert to a
4056    usable format.
4057
4058  + Fix assertion failure due to rounding differences on loading certain .3d
4059    files.  (ticket#26)
4060
4061  + Fix assertion failure when turning on 3D passages if they stick out higher
4062    or lower than any station.  (ticket#29)
4063
[53f8a93]4064  + Fix grid not to disappear when blobs are turned on and blobs are drawn
4065    using lines.
4066
[94960ad]4067  + If a degree sign isn't available in the character set in use, transliterate
4068    it to 'dg' rather than skipping it.
4069
4070  + Fix message which should have been a degree sign but got lost in the format
4071    change for 1.2.0 and then got reassigned in 1.2.1.  Externally, this means
4072    that bearings in the status bar now have a degree sign after them if they
4073    are in degrees rather than nothing (1.2.0) or "&Hide Compass" (1.2.1).
4074
4075  + Fix print dialog to calculate the scale required for "One page" right
4076    before it calculates how many pages are required, so we don't end up
4077    something other than 1x1 being shown when the user changes settings.
4078
4079  + Update the calculations for picking a scale and for deciding how many
4080    pages are needed to take into account the change in info box height made
4081    in 1.2.1.
4082
[9704252]4083Changes in 1.2.1 (2011-10-04):
[e3c58c3]4084
4085* Translation updates for US English.
4086
4087* aven:
4088
4089  + Rename the "depth bar" to "colour key" in documentation, menus, etc since
4090    it now shows colours for dates and errors as well as depths.
4091
4092  + In the colour key for "colour by date", change "No info" to "Undated".
4093
4094  + Remove the dark grey background from the colour key and just put a single
4095    pixel black border around the colours.  This is more in keeping with the
4096    other controls, and means the colours are now on a black background so more
4097    visually similar to the survey legs.
4098
4099  + Move the colour key's "Undated"/"Not in loop" entry down a little to
4100    improve the appearance.  Make each section a pixel taller.
4101
[9704252]4102  + Allow "Colour by X" to be selected even if there's no data for X or only a
4103    single value of X used (the colour key is much smaller in these cases, and
4104    does still provide some useful information).
4105
4106  + Fix incorrect calculation of depth colouring for survey legs which straddle
4107    a depth band boundary.
[e3c58c3]4108
4109  + The scale bar, compass, clino, and colour key now all have right click
[9704252]4110    menus which allow related actions to be performed (especially handy in
4111    full-screen mode).
[e3c58c3]4112
4113  + Improve the font used on the survey pane - it now contains the '-'
4114    character (so the clino now shows negative angles as negative, and dates
4115    in the colour key are now hyphenated).  Also the spacing and alignment
4116    are a little better, though still not perfect.
4117
4118  + PLT file export now handles spaces and control characters in station names
4119    by escaping them with '%' as in URLs.
4120
4121  + Pressing "Enter" on a station in the tree control now centres the view on
4122    that station.
4123
4124  + The scale bar is now cached in an OpenGL display list since it often gets
4125    redrawn exactly the same - for example, when rotating, panning, etc.
4126
4127  + Pressing "F5" forces all cached OpenGL drawing lists to be invalidated and
4128    then forces a refresh of the survey pane.  This is intended as a debugging
4129    aid - if pressing F5 changes the display at all then there's a missing case
[9704252]4130    where a list should have been invalidated (please report if you find such
4131    a case as it is a bug).
[e3c58c3]4132
[9704252]4133  + We now automatically track which OpenGL display lists need to be
4134    invalidated on window width or height changes.
[e3c58c3]4135
4136  + Increase scale bar maximum width from 65% of the window width to 75% as it
4137    was in 1.0.x (except that if that would overlap the clino we now reduce
4138    that proportion down until it reaches 50%).  Make the limit of zooming in
4139    the same as in 1.0.x.  (ticket#23)
4140
[9704252]4141  + (Linux version): Previously wxGTK didn't really handle showing a dialog if
4142    the application was fullscreen (the dialog got opened under the main
4143    window!)  To work around this, aven would switch out of full screen mode
4144    temporarily while showing a dialog.  This case works properly with recent
4145    wxGTK, so disable our workaround with versions we know work.  Also, apply
4146    the workaround only for wxGTK, not everywhere except on Microsoft Windows
4147    as there's no reason to think we need it for other platforms.
[e3c58c3]4148
4149  + Grey out the "View North" action when we're already viewing North, and
4150    similarly for other compass points.
4151
4152  + (Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows versions): Fix missing newline to OpenGL
4153    info in the "About" dialog.
4154
4155  + Fix to set the correct filename on the root of the survey tree - previously
4156    the filename of the previous file loaded was used!
4157
4158  + The movie export code now works with newer versions of the FFmpeg libraries
4159    as well as still working with older versions.
4160
4161  + Fix mixed up messages - the print dialog now says "View" on the left
4162    subgroup of controls rather than some unrelated message.
4163
4164  + On printouts, combine the "Plan View"/"Elevation" info box field with the
4165    field which gives the bearing and reduce the height on the info box by the
4166    removed field, so it's now 3cm for plans and elevations, as for extended
4167    elevations.  Report the tilt angle for tilted elevations which it seems has
4168    been missing for ages (it's not in recent 1.0.x either).
4169
4170  + Tweak the exact positioning of informational text on printouts to look
4171    nicer and make better use of the available space.
4172
4173  + Add keyboard mnemonics to the "Plan" and "Elevation" buttons in the print
4174    dialog.
4175
4176  + Make the sign of the tilt angle for printouts consistent with the sign
4177    shown by the "clino" in the survey pane.
4178
4179  + In the "Print" dialog, when in plan view disable the "Plan view" button,
4180    and similarly for the "Elevation" button.
4181
[9704252]4182  + (Microsoft Windows version): Sort out appearance of custom cursors.
4183
[e3c58c3]4184  + If a label isn't valid UTF-8 or CP1252, fall back to ISO8859-1.
4185
4186  + (Mac OS X version): F11 puts aven into full screen mode, but apparently
4187    you can't get out again easily, so add code to explicitly check for F11
4188    being pressed and toggle full screen.
4189
4190* (Linux version): Fix the RPM .spec file for where man pages now get installed
4191  and package aven.svg and the vim support files.  (Fixes from James Begley)
4192
4193* "make check" now performs several checks on the translation files.
4194
4195* More messages are now available to be translated.
4196
4197* cavern: Fix reporting of ranges of survey coordinates, which was broken by
4198  the message handling changes in 1.2.0.
4199
4200* Fix warning when compiling with GCC.
4201
4202* INSTALL: Mention building wxWidgets with --enable-unicode.  Mention using
4203  sudo for installing on Unix.
4204
4205* In the manual, replace the instructions for building from source with a
4206  pointer to the clearer instructions in INSTALL.
4207
4208* In the manual, make it clear that installing with administrator rights
4209  also applies to newer platforms than XP.
4210
4211* doc/TODO.htm: Update.
4212
[120c1c6]4213Changes in 1.2.0 (2011-09-20):
[b4ac7007]4214
4215* Translation updates for Catalan, French, Romanian, Spanish, Slovak, and US
4216  English.
4217
[9cfcb3f]4218* tests/smoke.tst: aven no longer requires an X display for --help or
4219  --version, so replace skip of this check with a check that this remains the
4220  case.
4221
4222* We now use the standard .po and .pot file formats for storing translations
4223  (rather than the Survex-specific messages.txt format), and then translate
4224  these into Survex's .msg format.
4225
[b4ac7007]4226* (Unix version): Move survex man page to section 7 (since it isn't documenting
4227  an actual command).
4228
[9cfcb3f]4229* (Unix version): Write each generated man page to a temporary file, then
4230  atomically rename, to avoid leaving an empty or partial man page behind if
4231  docbook-to-man dies (1.1.16 had an empty cad3d.1, and we want to avoid a
4232  recurrence of that).
4233
[b4ac7007]4234* (Unix version): Default to installing docs into /usr/share/doc/survex rather
4235  than /usr/doc/survex.
4236
4237* aven:
4238
[120c1c6]4239  + Fix handling of accented characters in the survey pane.
4240
[9cfcb3f]4241  + Aven icon redrawn in SVG format - it's now a vector image which looks
4242    nicer at larger sizes.
4243
[b4ac7007]4244  + Explicitly request double-buffering, which seems to be needed for systems
4245    with GLX >= 1.3.
4246
4247  + Fix crash while trying to load certain .3d files.
4248
4249  + Movie export code updated to work with more recent versions of FFmpeg.
[4095cc0]4250    Currently this is disabled in Microsoft Windows builds, pending getting the
4251    required libraries set up for building releases.
[b4ac7007]4252
4253  + Reporting of errors during movie export improved.
4254
4255  + Force playback speed to "x1" during movie export.
4256
4257  + Use stock IDs for buttons where appropriate - such buttons may now be
4258    rendered with icons on some platforms.
4259
[9cfcb3f]4260  + If a label isn't valid UTF-8, treat it as CP1252 (the Microsoft superset of
4261    ISO8859-1).
4262
4263  + (Unix version): Remove special handling for toggling "full screen" on wxGTK
4264    as it's no longer required with modern versions.
4265
4266  + Don't redraw the survey on every mouse movement in the survey pane unless
4267    the measuring line is (or just was) active.  (ticket #17)
4268
[b4ac7007]4269* cavern:
4270
4271  + Drop "non-fatal" from the report of how many errors there were at the end
4272    of the run - it just confuses users - we won't even get here if there's a
4273    fatal error!
4274
[9cfcb3f]4275  + Add --3d-version option to allow the user to specify the version of the 3d
4276    format to output.  (ticket#21)
4277
4278* img library:
4279
4280  + Make the highest and lowest valid values for img_output_version available
4281    in img.h as IMG_VERSION_MIN and IMG_VERSION_MAX.
4282
[b4ac7007]4283* (Mac OS X version): Fix buildmacosx.sh script to check where the temporary
[120c1c6]4284  volume actually gets mounted.  Fix URL for downloading wxWidgets.
[b4ac7007]4285
[8f9b0b6d]4286Changes in 1.1.16 (2011-05-16):
[ecdb631]4287
4288* Translation updates for German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Brazilian
4289  Portuguese, and US English.
4290
4291* Use horizontal ellipses character rather than '...' and right arrow character
[ec8fd0d]4292  rather than '->' where these characters are available.
[ecdb631]4293
4294* (Unix version): Link with -lGL, if it exists, to support linking with gold or
4295  GNU ld --as-needed (Debian bug #615781).
4296
4297* img.c:
4298
4299  + Fix code typo for IMG_API_VERSION == 0 case.
4300
4301  + Fix code typo in code used when IMG_HOSTED isn't defined.
4302
4303* doc/TODO.htm: Remove entries which have now been done.
4304
[8f9b0b6d]4305* (Microsoft Windows version): aven: We now include all the available
4306  translations for messages from wxWidgets, which means that standard widgets
4307  will appear translated where available even if Survex messages aren't
4308  translated.
4309
[f5e3521]4310Changes in 1.1.15 (2010-10-15):
[2d16e4e]4311
4312* aven:
4313
4314  + In the cavern log window, change the "Rerun" button to "Reprocess" to
4315    follow terminology in manual and elsewhere.  Fixes ticket#15.
4316
4317  + When displaying output from cavern, don't update the window after every
4318    line, but only when we don't have data from cavern pending.  Hopefully
4319    addresses ticket#12.
4320
4321  + If we aren't using GL_POINTS for blobs, draw them using a series of
4322    abutting lines rather than with gluDisk which is faster and gives a
4323    consistent shape.
4324
4325  + Check whether blobs and crosses actually render correctly as points/point
4326    sprites, and if they don't, fall back to drawing them with lines.  The
4327    best method is cached on disk, and rechecked automatically if the graphics
4328    hardware is changed or the drivers upgraded.
4329
4330  + Fix non-USE_FNT case to work again (it's limited to ISO-8859-1 characters
4331    though, so we still enable USE_FNT by default).
4332
4333  + Don't offer "All files" wildcard in presentation save dialog.
4334
4335  + (Microsoft Windows): Handle filenames with non-Latin1 characters in in
4336    more places.
4337
4338  + (Microsoft Windows): Quote filenames with spaces and metacharacters in
[f5e3521]4339    when running cavern from aven.  Fixes ticket#11.
4340
4341* editwrap: (Microsoft Windows): Handle filenames with non-Latin1 characters.
4342
4343* diffpos: Handle files with duplicate labels in better - extend generates
4344  duplicate labels when it breaks a loop.
4345
4346* Enable eswap-break testcase now that diffpos handles duplicate station names.
[2d16e4e]4347
4348* New v7 of .3d format which stores survey dates as number of days since
4349  January 1st 1900, so we now support dates from 1900-2078 (rather than
4350  1970-2037) with a smaller file size.  The img API is now versioned - you
4351  can select the new "version 1" by compiling with -DIMG_API_VERSION=1, which
4352  gives the survey dates in days in days1 and days2 instead of as time_t
4353  values in date1 and date2.  Fixes ticket#14.
4354
4355* Consistently use http://survex.com/ rather than http://www.survex.com/ - the
4356  former has been the canonical name for some time, with www.survex.com just
4357  redirecting to it.
4358
4359* (Unix version): Use unlocked file I/O if available, which can be much faster
4360  in some cases (we don't need the locking as we don't do multithreaded file
4361  I/O).
4362
4363* (Mac version): Fix compilation failure due to clash with Point in Mac OS X
4364  headers.
4365
4366* (Mac version): buildmacosx.sh now works again.
4367
4368* Most tests weren't actually running any testcases (looks like a sh
4369  portability issue).  This is now fixed, and fortunately all tests still pass.
4370
4371* Include the extra .isl translation files for Innosetup in the source archive.
4372
[f9473ab]4373Changes in 1.1.14 (2010-07-26):
4374
4375* Restore compatibility with wxWidgets 2.6 (1.1.13 required wxWidgets 2.8).
4376
4377* aven:
4378
4379  + After processing survey data, if there were warnings or errors, add a
4380    "Rerun" button to allow easy reprocessing after fixing problems.  If there
4381    were only warnings, also add an "OK" button to allow moving on to viewing
4382    the processed survey data (fixes ticket#13).
4383
4384  + Optimise updating of the cavern log window (hopefully fixes ticket#12).
4385
4386  + Fix links in cavern log window to link from exactly '<file>:<line>' (and
4387    not the ': ' after), and to make the title for the terminal the
4388    warning/error message.  Avoid false positives by checking that '<line>' is
4389    a number.
4390
4391  + Don't double escape the contents of href and target in links in the cavern
4392    log window.
4393
4394  + Improve handling of the splitter window, fixing behavioural glitches in
4395    various cases.
4396
4397  + Highlight stations matching any current search when a file is loaded.
4398    (ticket#9)
4399
4400  + (Mac version): Fix build issue due to Mac OS X polluting the global
4401    namespace with its own "Point" class.
4402
4403  + (Unix version): The Gnome print dialog has its own preview window so
4404    suppress ours if using the Gnome one.
4405
4406  + (Unix version): Link aven with -lGLU which SuSE Linux needs.
4407
4408  + (Microsoft Windows version): Fix handling of a double-click on the survey
4409    tree when built with wxWidgets >= 2.8.11.
4410
4411* cavern: Report relevant file and line number for three warnings which didn't
4412  give them before.
4413
4414* (Unix and Mac versions): configure: Update the wx-config probing code -
4415  wxmac-config etc aren't present with newer wxWidgets versions so there's no
4416  point looking for them now.
4417
4418* (Mac version): buildmacosx.sh: This script builds a diskimage with Survex in
4419  for easy installation.  Update it to work with the latest Survex versions
4420  (use WX_CONFIG not WXCONFIG; use a Unicode build of wxWidgets; if building a
4421  private wxWidgets, use 2.8.11 not 2.7.0-1).
4422
4423* manual:
4424
4425  + Correctly capitalise "GTK".
4426
4427  + Note that on Linux we only regularly test builds with the GTK+ version
4428    (change taken from 1.0).
4429
4430* Fixed the cad3d man page, which was an empty file in 1.1.13.
4431
[0bd49eb]4432Changes in 1.1.13 (2010-06-16):
[90d0d71]4433
4434* Say "wxWidgets" instead of "wxWindows" consistently.
4435
[739b92c]4436* img.c: Fix small memory leak (filename_opened member).
[90d0d71]4437
4438* cad3d, aven: Fix export to SVG when a label contains a '%' character.
[f1cbf74]4439
4440* aven:
4441
[90d0d71]4442  + wxWidgets 2.6.0 or newer is now required.
4443
4444  + A "Unicode" build of wxWidgets is now supported.  An "ANSI" build may still
4445    work but hasn't been tested recently (all packaged versions of wxWidgets
4446    seem to be Unicode now).
4447
4448  + Fix potential uses of uninitialised variables which may have been causing
4449    occasional glitches when loading a file on start-up.
4450
[e4bfd2f]4451  + Improvements to the handling of the font used for plotting labels and other
4452    text on the survey pane:
4453
4454    - Loading the font file is more efficient.
4455
4456    - Character spacing is improved.
4457
4458    - Default font is now anti-aliased.
[90d0d71]4459
4460  + "About" dialog:
4461
4462    - Add "Copy" button to copy the system info to the clipboard for easier
4463      bug reporting.
4464
4465    - List OpenGL extensions last, since there are usually lots of them with a
4466      modern gfx card.
4467
4468    - Fix 100% CPU usage while the "About" dialog is open.
4469
4470  + Processing .svx files:
4471
4472    - Passing a .svx file on the command line now works better.
[1324d6c]4473
[739b92c]4474    - Put the survey data log window in a splitter in the usual frame rather
4475      than opening a separate frame for it.
4476
[90d0d71]4477    - Auto-scroll the log window until we've reported a warning or error.
4478
4479    - Fix small memory leak.
4480
4481  + The presentation filename now defaults to using the basename of the
4482    currently loaded dataset, but we always prompt before we first save with
4483    such a name.
4484
4485  + Reduce memory usage when saving a screenshot.
4486
[e4bfd2f]4487  + Allow "Toggle Fullscreen" to work even if no survey is loaded now that we
4488    persist the window size (and maximised or fullscreen state) between
4489    invocations.
4490
[90d0d71]4491  + Fix reporting of OpenGL errors.
4492
4493  + Fix glitches when tilting while looking East.
4494
[739b92c]4495  + Added Portuguese and Slovak translations of wxWidgets messages.
4496
[90d0d71]4497* Documentation:
4498
[e4bfd2f]4499  + Rationalise manual formats - replace PostScript with PDF and drop RTF.
4500
4501  + Drop the "alternative manual formats" self-extracting zip file - people
4502    will generally just want one of the formats, so downloading several
4503    together isn't very useful.
4504
[90d0d71]4505  + 3dformat.htm: Update for v6 format (thanks to Mike McCombe).
4506
4507  + GPL.htm: Replace HTML version of licence with a link to the version on
4508    the FSF website.
4509
4510  + ChngeLog.htm: Stop generating an HTML version of the ChangeLog - it's too
4511    low level to be of interest to non-developers, and developers can look at
4512    the source code.
4513
4514* (Unix version): configure: New preferred name for specifying wx-config script
4515  is WX_CONFIG.  WXCONFIG still supported for compatibility.
[f1cbf74]4516
[e4bfd2f]4517* (Linux version): Source RPM package dropped as you can just build an RPM
4518  package from the source tarball.
4519
[739b92c]4520* (Microsoft Windows version): The installer is now created with a newer
4521  version of InnoSetup, which gives a 10% smaller download.
4522
[2e12f8c]4523Changes in 1.1.12 (2007-02-07):
[5940815]4524
4525* aven:
4526
[3db0798]4527  + Remember the window size or maximised/fullscreen state between invocations.
4528
[5940815]4529  + Add options dialog to "Export" similar to the one for "Print".
4530
[6b2113d]4531  + The "number of pages required" in the print dialog now updates when you
4532    change what is to be shown (underground legs/surface legs/station
4533    names/crosses).
4534
[920b066]4535Changes in 1.1.11 (2006-11-25):
4536
4537* Updated Czech, Spanish, and Slovak translations.
4538
[99d8798]4539* (MacOS X version): Assorted OS X specific tweaks and fixes.
4540
[920b066]4541* aven:
[78c67a6]4542
[920b066]4543  + Pick a smaller and clearer font for labels.
[99d8798]4544
[920b066]4545  + Fix character spacing.
[99d8798]4546
[920b066]4547  + Tweak display of bearing and elevation angles to look nicer with
4548    proportional fonts.
[99d8798]4549
[920b066]4550  + Use the title from the 3d (or plt, etc) file for the window title
4551    rather than the filename.
[99d8798]4552
[920b066]4553  + Show distances to 2 decimal places rather than the nearest integer.
[99d8798]4554
[920b066]4555  + Only consider underground legs when calculating the depth bands and
4556    depth colouring.
[99d8798]4557
[920b066]4558  + Add "Colour by Error".
[99d8798]4559
[920b066]4560  + Add entry for "white" in date and error keys.
[99d8798]4561
[920b066]4562  + When setting the view to a single point, don't change the scale.
[99d8798]4563
[920b066]4564  + If reloading the same file, don't change the view
[99d8798]4565
[920b066]4566  + Fix filetypes selector in open dialog.
[99d8798]4567
[920b066]4568  + Fix the charset we use for aven in certain cases.
[99d8798]4569
[920b066]4570  + Call msg_init before using msg_lang or it won't ever be set!
[99d8798]4571
[920b066]4572  + Pass wx the full language code to initialise the C library locale.
[99d8798]4573
[920b066]4574  + Fix bug in generating prefix tree view which could lead to a bogus
4575    leading dot on some survey names (bug probably introduced in 1.1.10).
[99d8798]4576
[920b066]4577  + "New Presentation" now ensures that the side panel is open
[99d8798]4578
[920b066]4579  + Fix updating of cached opengl lists when the view is reset to the
4580    default.
[99d8798]4581
[920b066]4582* Ignore LANG if it starts with a digit to avoid problems with bogus value for
4583  LANG which AutoCAD installation seems to set on MS Windows.
[99d8798]4584
[920b066]4585* (Unix version): configure: Allow SGMLTOOLS and DOCBOOK_TO_MAN to be
4586  specified.  Either/both can be set to ":".
[99d8798]4587
[920b066]4588* dump3d: Report unknown (to dump3d) codes returned by img.
[99d8798]4589
[920b066]4590* img library: Flag all stations as underground in the old "ASCII" .3d format.
[99d8798]4591
[920b066]4592Changes in 1.1.10 (2006-07-14):
[ac3f376]4593
4594* aven: Clicking on a survey name in the survey tree now highlights it in
4595  the map view.  Double-clicking zooms the view to show the clicked survey
4596  highlighted.  Clicking the root clears the highlighting and double-clicking
4597  the root restores the default view.  To expand/collapse a branch, click
4598  on the "[+]" or "[-]" icon to the left of the survey name.
4599
4600* aven: The measuring line can now measure to anywhere in plan or elevation
4601  view (not just to a station!)  In plan view the horizontal distance and
4602  bearing are shown, while in elevation view the vertical distance is shown.
[90d0d71]4603
[ac3f376]4604* aven: Moving the mouse over a station in the survey view now highlights
4605  that station in the survey tree (though it may not be visible if the
4606  survey(s) it is in aren't expanded).
4607
4608* aven: Clicking on a station to centre the view now moves the mouse pointer
4609  to the new location of the station (except on Mac OS X where this isn't
4610  allowed).
4611
4612* aven: Fix which presentation toolbar buttons are shown as depressed.
4613
4614* Fix infinite loop reading 3d files with LRUD data (bug introduced in 1.1.9).
4615
4616* vim files are now installed with the correct paths (bug introduced in 1.1.9).
4617
[920b066]4618Changes in 1.1.9 (2006-07-04):
[6a2594be]4619
4620* (Unix version): Install desktop files for aven and svxedit contributed to the
4621  Ubuntu package by Phil Bull, and corresponding pixmaps.
4622
4623* Fix img to filter out cross-sections which don't match the subsurvey (if
4624  specified).  The API now returns img_XSECT_END to mark the end of a
4625  passage rather than setting a flag on the last img_XSECT of the passage.
4626
4627* Enhance integration with the vim editor - this can now colour .err files, run
4628  cavern from vim and parse error output, and run aven from vim.  Tweak the
4629  existing vim mode for .svx files to fix a few minor bugs and add support for
4630  the new "*data passage" style.
4631
4632* aven: fix drawing of the "blob" end of the measuring line on graphics cards
4633  which can't draw large enough blobs for us.
4634
4635* aven: sort out confusion about what encoding everything is in which means
4636  that the distance measured by the measuring line actually gets displayed
4637  and also fixes problems with empty menu items in non-English locales in
4638  some cases.
4639
4640* aven: redraw grey background after a menu is closed over the aven window
4641  with no survey loaded.
4642
4643* aven: fix bug which caused printing to crash (introduced in 1.1.8).
4644
4645* aven: avoid crash on some machines when opening "About" dialog before having
4646  loaded a survey.
4647
4648* aven: Translate "Plan" and "Elevation" buttons in print view dialog.
4649
4650* (Unix version): aven: Fix character set handling of cavern output.
4651
4652* cavern: Report an error if a cross-section is specified for a station which
4653  doesn't exist.
4654
4655* Updated French and Italian translations.
4656
4657* (Unix version): aven: Fix "Can't open message file `en_US' using path
[f3cfd13]4658  `${prefix}/share/survex'" error.
4659
[6a2594be]4660* Fix bug in 3d file reading on 64 bit platforms when used in STANDALONE mode
4661  (doesn't affect Survex itself, but other applications which use img.c should
4662  update their copy).
4663
4664* (Unix version): Add checks that wxWidgets is a non-unicode version (wx 2.6
4665  and later are caught by configure, whereas older wx versions are caught when
4666  trying to compile).
4667
[920b066]4668Changes in 1.1.8 (2006.06.30):
[cd39f67]4669
[c988ae4]4670* Drop support for building with wxWidgets versions prior to 2.4.0
4671  (which was released on 2003-01-07).
4672
[9577fcc]4673* aven: Printing through aven now uses settings from the "[aven]" section
4674  of print.ini, and support for hierarchical sections (using "like=")
4675  has been disabled.
4676
[ecf2d23]4677* aven: Change mouse actions to be compatible with those in Survex 1.0.
4678  The mousewheel now zooms in/out (it doesn't do anything in 1.0) and
4679  left drag is now smart about not rotating and zooming at the same
4680  time.
4681
[d1628e8e]4682* aven: Highlighting stations now happens as you type, and pressing
4683  "Enter" or clicking the "Find" button now pans and zooms to show the
4684  highlighted stations.
4685
[e67ed1b]4686* aven: Left-clicking away from a station now cancels measuring line.
4687
[3ddd351]4688* aven: Setting view to North, South, East, or West is now animated like
4689  the tilt from plan to elevation.
4690
[c988ae4]4691* aven: Fix presentation saving to also write "." for decimal points and
4692  presentation loading to accept either "." or ",".
4693
4694* (Unix version): aven: Add text for all toolbar items so that aven
4695  will work with the Gnome desktop preference for displaying toolbars as
4696  icons with text or just text (wxWidgets needs fixing first though).
4697
4698* (Unix version): aven: Remove the ability to detach the menu bar (yell
4699  if you actually used it and I'll restore it!)
4700
4701* aven: Add "all survey files" option to the "open file" dialog.
4702
[84f1ed1]4703* (MS Windows version): aven: Fix cursor keys to pan survey.
4704
[a884696]4705* (MS Windows version): Built with wxWidgets 2.6.3 instead of 2.6.2.
4706
[9fe7af4f]4707* (MS Windows version): Fix installer to work on Windows 2000 or XP if
4708  run by an unprivileged user.
4709
4710* (MS Windows version): Upgrade to the latest version of InnoSetup (the
4711  installer builder we use) and include new installer translations for
4712  UK English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian, Romanian, and Slovak.
4713
4714* (MS Windows version): aven: Include Catalan and Brazilian Portuguese
4715  translations of messages for wxWidgets (the GUI library we use).
4716
[cd39f67]4717* aven: Disable "Highlight exported points" if there aren't any.
4718
[afffec4]4719* Updates to French translation from Michel Bovey.  Also updates to German,
[5e74c26]4720  Italian, Catalan, Spanish, and Romanian translations.
[581624b]4721
[38a192d]4722* (Unix version): test suite: fix smoke test to pass even without X running
4723  (it was meant to but the code had a bug).
4724
[5892e08]4725* aven: Check if OpenGL is available and exit cleanly with a helpful error
4726  if it isn't.
4727
[879e9c3]4728* (Unix version): aven: Fix --help and --version to work without a working
4729  X display (provided it's built with wxWidgets 2.5.1 or newer).
4730
[c8f929b]4731* aven: Automatically select the presentation tab of the notebook when the user
4732  selects "New Presentation" or "Open Presentation".
4733
4734* aven: Fix "Delete" in the presentation list to not get passed on (and so not
4735  reset to default view as well).
4736
4737* aven: Fix Ctrl+Insert in the presentation list not to segfault if the list is
4738  empty.
4739
4740* aven: Fix Cursor Up and Down in the presentation list to move the highlight
4741  up and down instead of being passed on and moving the survey.
4742
[9ad92cc]4743* aven: Improve SVG output compatibility.  Tested with Mozilla Firefox 1.5,
[ecf2d23]4744  Adobe's SVG browser plugin, Gimp 2.2.8, Gqview 2.0.0, Opera 8.5,
4745  Safari 2.0.3, and InkScape 0.42.
[9ad92cc]4746
4747* aven: Put a 5mm border around exported SVG files to allow for station markers
4748  and non-zero width lines.
4749
4750* aven: Fix crash when exporting as SVG or Sketch if labels or surface data
4751  was turned on.
4752
4753* aven: Actually close the file we're exporting which fixes problems with it
4754  not always being fully written.
4755
[920b066]4756Changes in 1.1.7 (2005.10.18):
[6662d02]4757
4758* cavern: Add validity checking for dates in *date commands (with feature
4759  test in testsuite).  A date entered as just "year" or "year.month" now
4760  becomes a date range for the relevant period (previously it became a single
4761  date near the middle of that period).
[e0c7cd1]4762
[8add4c9]4763* extend: Fixed 2 uninitialised flags (should fix erratic behaviour on
4764  with MS Windows).
4765
[9f524ee]4766* extend: Default output name for a file called input.3d is now input_extend.3d
4767  rather than just extend.3d (which was annoying if you wanted to extend
4768  several surveys in the same directory).
4769
[185d793]4770* aven: OpenGL 2.0 always includes support for point sprites so rework
[3efd6b6]4771  our check for them to include that knowledge.
[185d793]4772
[3515947]4773* aven: Regenerate depth bar if user switches to/from metric units.
4774
[1235f9b]4775* aven: Don't clear the "there" mark just because the mouse pointer has
4776  moved off a station.
4777
[4299674]4778* aven: When processing a .svx file, put the resultant .3d file in the
[d74279d]4779  same directory (since that's where we then try to load it from).
[4299674]4780
[60dbe70]4781* aven: Fix labelling of date colouring on 32 bit platforms.
4782
[125c9ea]4783* aven: If "colour by date" is on and we load a survey with no date info
4784  (or all surveyed on the same date) then set "colour by none".
4785
[ec58e3d3]4786* aven: Make the error dialog modal and remove a signal handler once it
4787  has fired to prevent endless (or seemingly endless) cascades of error
4788  dialogs.
4789
[8add4c9]4790* aven: Enforce a minimum object volume diameter of 1m to avoid problems
4791  if a survey file with only one station in is loaded.
4792
[6662d02]4793* aven: Fix problems with indicators disappearing when we're drawing
4794  blobs and/or crosses the slow (but always supported) way.  (Problem
[d74279d]4795  introduced in 1.1.6).
[6662d02]4796
[b65c13f]4797* (Unix version): aven: Really stop setting extra toolbar margin when using
4798  GTK2.0.  The attempt to fix this in 1.1.3 failed because __WXGTK12__ is
4799  set for GTK+ 1.2 or *any later release* so is true for GTK+ 2.0 too!
4800
[17cce5f]4801* (Unix version): aven: Add details of which of wxGTK, wxMotif, and wxX11
4802  we've been compiled with, and which GTK+/Motif version where appropriate.
4803
[affaeee]4804* (Unix version): Fixed build on Fedora Core 3.
4805
[618b01f]4806* documentation: Updates to 3d file format specification from Mike McCombe.
4807
[920b066]4808Changes in 1.1.6 (2005.10.10):
[7e01c87]4809
4810* (MS Windows version): Distribution is about a third smaller than 1.1.5
4811  (mostly because mingwm10.dll is no longer required).
4812
[b88b171]4813* aven: If aven is asked to load a .svx, .dat, or .mak file, run cavern on
4814  it, showing cavern's output in a window (with errors and warnings clickable
4815  to load the offending file into an editor), and then loading the resulting
4816  3d file.
4817
[7e01c87]4818* aven: Added "Colour by Date" option.
4819
4820* aven: Disable "Colour by Depth" option if there's no elevation variation.
4821
4822* aven: Don't crash if trying to load a survey with no elevation variation.
4823  Instead turn off depth colouring.
4824
[8ea82aa]4825* aven: Export as HPGL added.
4826
[887c26e]4827* aven: Improved update of mouse coordinates and measuring line (thanks to
4828  Martin Green).
4829
[7c29c976]4830* aven: Show the coordinates of either the mouse pointer or the nearest
4831  survey station to it (if there is one near enough).  Showing both was
4832  confusing and meant the status bar overflowed on smaller displays.
4833
[7e01c87]4834* aven: When printing an extended elevation, don't show bearing and elevation.
[bd21214]4835
[7e01c87]4836* aven: Don't lock "flat" surveys which aren't extended elevations - a
4837  flat survey with LRUD data isn't flat any more!
4838
4839* aven: When we have to draw blobs and crosses the slow way (because the
4840  graphics hardware doesn't support the fast way), draw them so that they
4841  should appear at the correct depth into the 3D scene instead of on top
4842  of everything else.
4843
4844* aven: Make "play presentation backwards" icon green to match the other
4845  presentation icons.
4846
4847* (MS Windows version): aven: Mouse clicks on the survey view now set the
4848  keyboard focus there.
[bd21214]4849
[b46bf92]4850* (MS Windows version): aven: Fix first redraw of a newly loaded survey.
4851
[796d7bf]4852* (MS Windows version): aven: Fix redrawing of measuring line.
4853
[7e01c87]4854* cavern: Store dates for img_XSECT.
4855
4856* cavern: Fixed small one-off memory leak if you specify -o more than once.
4857
[b88b171]4858* (Unix version): Check environmental variable LC_MESSAGES when deciding what
4859  language to use for messages.
4860
[7c29c976]4861* (MS Windows version): "Print" on a 3d file now prints through aven rather
4862  than the separate printer driver (Unix has done this for some time).
4863
[8ea82aa]4864* Removed old printer drivers.
4865
[7e01c87]4866* img library: When creating a 3d file, ignore img_XSECT if we've been asked
4867  to write a file format version which doesn't support it.
[8ea82aa]4868
[920b066]4869Changes in 1.1.5 (2005.09.20):
[106cfdf]4870
4871* (MS Windows version): aven: Fixed crash on start-up (introduced in 1.1.4).
4872
[4ba80e0]4873* aven: Make blobs round like they are in Survex 1.0.
4874
4875* aven: If the graphics drivers don't support drawing blobs using OpenGL
4876  point markers, fall back to drawing filled circles.
4877
[95ce35f]4878* aven: If the graphics drivers support it, draw crosses as texture mapped
4879  OpenGL point markers which is much faster.
[90d0d71]4880
[95ce35f]4881* aven: Cross size increased to match Survex 1.0.
4882
[cd78148]4883* aven: We must update which blobs are displayed if display of surface or
4884  underground legs is toggled.
4885
[f5627353]4886* cavern: Fix handling of a *solve followed by survey data, none of which is
4887  attached to the previous data.
4888
[dfe4a520]4889* cavern: Fixed "No survey data" error when a *solve is followed by another
4890  *solve (or the implicit solve at the end of processing) with no data between
4891  them.
4892
[920b066]4893Changes in 1.1.4 (2005.09.19):
[4855072]4894
4895* aven: Added Aven's icon to the "About" dialog.
4896
4897* aven: Use localised character for the decimal point (e.g. "," in most
4898  continental European countries).
4899
4900* aven: Previously the survey tree would get focus and then take keypresses
4901  (e.g. "P", "L", "Delete").  Now we pass most keypresses across so they
4902  operate on the cave, and transfer the input focus across when we do.
4903
4904* aven: Make pressing "Return" in the tree control expand/collapse a subtree.
4905
4906* aven: Speed up intialisation by delaying creation of OpenGL lists until
4907  they're needed.
4908
4909* aven: Added Mark Shinwell's bounding box with shadow of the survey.
4910
4911* aven: Disable the "Tubes" button/menu item when there's no LRUD data.
4912
4913* aven: Reworded "Restore Default Settings" as "Restore Default View".
4914
4915* (Unix version): aven: Set sensible default margins for printing and preserve
4916  any margin values the user specifies between runs (previously margins
4917  defaulted to 0 each time aven was run).
4918
4919* Documentation: Document *DATA PASSAGE in the manual.
4920
[920b066]4921Changes in 1.1.3 (2005.09.07):
[0e558e5]4922
4923* (Microsoft Windows version): Fixed build problems.
4924
4925* cavern: Allow OMIT character (-) for left/right/up/down.
4926
4927* aven: Remove an unnecessary menu separator.
4928
4929* aven: Fix "Find" and "Hide" toolbar buttons to work with GTK2.0.
4930
4931* aven: Make the tooltip for "Hide" show the number of found stations.
4932
4933* aven: If * or ? is used in a glob-style pattern, force a non-substring match.
4934
4935* aven: Enable "New Presentation" when there's a 3d file loaded, rather than
4936  when there's a presentation loaded.
4937
4938* aven: Make entrances green in side panel tree list to match green blobs used
4939  in cave view.
4940
4941* aven: Don't show surface labels if we're not showing surface data, etc.
4942
4943* aven: Merge "Start Rotation" and "Stop Rotation" into "Toggle Rotation" and
4944  make "Space" the key for this.  Keep Return working "Stop Rotation" so
4945  existing users are happy, but don't advertise it.
4946
4947* aven: Normalise filename by adding any extension used, and use the normalised
4948  filename for file history and window title.
4949
4950* (Unix version): aven: Stop setting extra toolbar margin when using GTK2.0
4951  as the toolbar buttons already have a sensible margin - the extra margin is
4952  only needed with GTK1.2.
4953
4954* aven: Fix handling of plumb legs in tube model.
4955
4956* aven: Fixed swapped L and R in tube model.
4957
4958* extend: Preserve UD cross-section information in extended elevation.
4959
4960* extend: Add new messages for John Pybus' enhancements.
4961
4962Changes in 1.1.2 (never formally released):
[8faa5d8]4963
4964* Added support for LRUD data in .svx files, in .3d files, and aven can
4965  now load and display it on screen and on printouts.  The ability to "fake"
4966  LRUD data in aven is gone for now but will reappear in some form later.
4967
4968* cavern: Removed support for writing Chasm's 3dx format.  We're going to
4969  fold any desirable missing chasm functionality into aven.
4970
4971* aven: Rearranged mouse actions as discussed on the mailing list.  Added
4972  cursors for each different mouse action to help the user learn what each
4973  does.  Also added cursors for the "compass" and "clino" as well as the
4974  scalebar to suggest to the user that they can be dragged to change the view.
[1a09e2c]4975
[0e558e5]4976* (Unix version): aven: Don't segfault if LANG isn't a known language.
[8faa5d8]4977
4978* tests/smoketest.tst: If X windows is running, check that we can run aven
4979  with --help and --version.
4980
4981* tests/cavern.tst: Fixed cavern.tst to warn if it is skipping a test because
4982  no results are listed for it.  This revealed that there was a "newline" test
[6225339]4983  which should have been called "badnewline", and was a broken testcase too!
[8faa5d8]4984  Fixed all these problems.
4985
4986* cavern: Applied Simeon Warner's patch for handling backcompass, backclino,
4987  and omitted forward compass/clino readings in Compass DAT files.  Added
4988  a feature test for this to the testsuite.
4989
4990* It no longer makes sense to have an option not to build aven or to build aven
[0e558e5]4991  without OpenGL so remove old machinery for this from configure and the
4992  sources.
[8faa5d8]4993
[0e558e5]4994* (Unix version): configure: Check if "-lXxf86vm" is needed.
[8faa5d8]4995
4996* configure: Better output for strcasecmp test.
4997
4998* aven: Fix crosses to work much better.  Not a total fix - their position
4999  in the Z buffer isn't correct and they're rather slow to plot.
5000
5001* aven: Don't regenerate the hittest grid every time the mouse moves while
5002  animating, which solves the mysterious pausing effect (thanks go to Martin
5003  Green for spotting this!)  Also clear all the status bar coordinates when
5004  animating.
5005
5006* aven: Sort out clashing menu shortcuts in some languages.
5007
5008* aven: Fixed compilation problem on x86_64
5009
5010* SPUD: Pruned out stuff which has been done or which is not actually relevant
5011  to this branch.
5012
5013* Merge various changes from 1.0 branch:
5014
5015  + aven: Port over "printing from aven" functionality.
5016
5017  + aven: Port over "export as" functionality,
5018
5019  + Add David Loeffler's vim mode for .svx files.
5020
5021* aven: Fix check for whether a label is behind us in perspective view.
[1a09e2c]5022
[8faa5d8]5023* aven: Don't use an opengl list for drawing the indicators - we typically make
5024  a new list each time we plot them anyway.
5025
5026* Remove lingering traces of support for RISC OS and pre-386 MSDOS
5027
5028* aven: Set icon on non-Windows platforms too.  This means that with
[0e558e5]5029  WindowMaker on Unix you get an icon on the AppIcon by default.
[8faa5d8]5030
5031* configure: Update wxWindows checks to handle newer wx versions.
5032
5033* Make all maintainer perl scripts "use bytes;" to avoid utf-8 double encoding
5034  problems.  They also all require Perl 5.8 now (hopefully this isn't an issue
5035  for anyone building from CVS).
5036
5037* acinclude.m4: Quote macro name for fix autotools warning.
5038
[4855072]5039* Documentation: "tilt up" is "'" not ",".
[8faa5d8]5040
5041* aven: Add support for mousewheels (to tilt the cave).
5042
5043* aven: Fixed twisted transitions to and from pitches in certain cases.
5044
[0e558e5]5045* aven: Pick a sensible initial window size when the user's desktop is spread
5046  over more than one monitor (works best with wx2.5 or newer, but try to do
[8faa5d8]5047  better with wx2.4 or earlier as well).
5048
5049* aven: Initialise GfxCore slightly later to avoid visual glitch from notebook
5050  contents being visible before any survey is loaded.
5051
5052* aven: Allow a coloured texture to be used
5053
5054* aven: Don't initialise until we have data (to the user, this means the window
[0130bc4]5055  is default colour (grey for most systems) not black until a survey is
5056  loaded).
[8faa5d8]5057
5058* aven: Fixed weird "shadowed" icons.
5059
[920b066]5060Changes in 1.1.1 (2004-10-06):
[a7aa27d9]5061
5062* (Microsoft Windows version): aven: Hopefully fix loading a survey file at
[1a09e2c]5063  startup.
[a7aa27d9]5064
5065* aven: Delay loading the bitmap for the "About" dialog until it is first
5066  needed.  We want start up to be as quick as possible.
5067
[920b066]5068Changes between 1.0.32 and 1.1.0 (never formally released):
[edb6576]5069
[91e416e]5070* NOTE: Survex 1.1.X releases are development snapshots made available for
5071  the purposes of allowing wider testing and getting more user feedback.  Once
5072  the code has stabilised the version number will be raised to 1.2.0.
[edb6576]5073
[91e416e]5074* aven: Now uses OpenGL for 3d rendering - you may need to install drivers if
5075  you're using Windows 95 - these can be obtained from:
5076  http://download.microsoft.com/download/win95upg/info/1/W95/EN-US/Opengl95.exe
[edb6576]5077
[91e416e]5078* aven: Solid passages - passage dimensions are currently inferred from
5079  the leg length (pretty effective as you can measure longer legs in
5080  larger passages).  Use of real LRUD data coming soon...
[edb6576]5081
[91e416e]5082* aven: Depth colouring is now continuously varying.
[edb6576]5083
[0580c6a]5084* aven: Colour by depth can now be turned off (and there's the start of a
5085  framework for properly implementing colour by date, error, etc).
5086
[4261983]5087* aven: Find stations moved onto the toolbar and now uses a simple wildcarded
5088  match (? matches any character, * matches any number of characters).
5089
5090* aven: We now use the status bar for coordinates, distances, etc to make
5091  better use of screen space.
[edb6576]5092
[f80077a]5093* aven: Full screen mode (F11).
[edb6576]5094
[6abab84]5095* aven: Perspective view.
5096
[91e416e]5097* aven: Context sensitive cursor shape - needs more work.
[edb6576]5098
[91e416e]5099* aven: Mouse actions changed (hopefully they're now more natural, but
5100  you may find the change disorientating - feedback wanted on this).
[edb6576]5101
[1690fa9]5102* aven: Added "presentations" which allow you to set up fly-through paths
5103  and load/save/run them.
5104
[0580c6a]5105* aven: A presentation can be exported as a movie file.
5106
[045e2af]5107* aven: Added Save screenshot facility.
5108
[c60062d]5109* aven: Depth fogging option.
5110
[0580c6a]5111* aven: Added Smooth Lines option.
5112
5113* aven: Added Textured Walls option.
5114
[f433fda]5115* aven: If a survey has surface legs but no underground legs, default to
5116  showing the surface legs.
5117
[0580c6a]5118* cavern: Dates given to *date are now stored in the 3d file.
