The release contains 3dformat.htm, but whilst the main manual is made available to read online at ​http://survex.com/docs.html the 3dformat doc does not appear to be, which means you can't easily send someone a URL pointing to the docs. People would be a lot more likely to find the docs if they were discoverable in this way.

It probably ought to be, though it has a fairly small audience and is available in the source tarball, so it isn't a critical omission.

Phil Maynard reports that on 10.6.8 the about dialog throws up an assertion failure when opened:

../src/osx/core/bitmap.cpp(1501): assert "IsOK()" failed in GetHeight(): invalid bitmap

If you answer "No" to "Do you want to stop the program?" you get the about dialog, but the cave image is missing (only image is the aven icon).

This sounds like it is failing to load aven-about.png - most of the code just quietly handles that, but the minimum height for the sizer is unconditionally set to the height of the bitmap. If I delete this image on Linux, I get the same assertion, so I've fixed that part in commit [4c0a0a22e7b890c84e2c1da4e182e5212ee1aa53/git].

That leaves the question of why the image is failing to load. I tested the about dialog worked on OS X at some point between 1.2.18 and 1.2.19, and didn't get this assertion, so it may be related to the OS X version, or to changes after that.
