New Features 

New in DeltaGraph for MacIntosh - v.6

 

New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.14
  • Fixed issue with rendering of contour fill charts.
  • Fixed issue that prevented updater downloads from being stopped.
  • Fixed issue with drawing contour fill charts.
  • Fixed issue with opening, then saving, certain files created with earlier versions of DeltaGraph (5.x and earlier).
  • Improved conversion of non-ASCII text when opening version 5.x and older files.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.12
  • Fixed issue with export of text areas to eps.  Text areas were being rasterized when exported to encapsulated postscript files.
  • Improved application stability when opening version 5 and older files.
  • Fixed problem with entering negative numbers in multiple contexts within the application when running Mac OS X 10.5.8 (and possible other versions of Mac OS X).
  • Sorted out inconsistencies between built-in symbols and the DeltaSymbol font, in the symbol popup in the Symbol Dialog.
  • Fixed problem with pattern fills in polygons.
  • Added Activation FAQs documentation to Help menu.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.11
  • Fixed issue with creating and editing text areas when the main windows is in split view mode.  This issue would result in the text area being relocated far to the right of where it belonged.
  • Fixed issue with moving selected objects with the arrow keys in split view mode.  The objects did not appear to move.
  • Fixed issue that caused symbols in 3D Scatter charts to be incorrectly placed.
  • Fixed issue with drawing 3D Pie Charts that caused the slices in the skirt to not line up perfectly with the slices in the top of the pie chart.
  • Fixed issue with editing backgrounds that could leave a chart page with no background at all.
  • Re-enabled colored (non-black) drop shadows for text areas.
  • Fixed issue with justification for text areas not being updated in the text menu and Set All...dialog.
  • Added checkbox in the "Select Number of Pages" dialog to apply the setting to all canvases.
  • Enhanced Document Info window, with more document information, along with the ability to remove unused backgrounds and layouts.
  • Moved Delete Page...and Name Page...menu items into the Edit menu.
  • Fixed issue with the "Check for Updates" functionality in Lion that caused it to simply not work.
  • Added ability to download the application updater from within DeltaGraph.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.10
  • Fixed issue when opening some version 6 files created on Windows computers.
  • Resolved issue in the data sheet, where DeltaGraph would sometimes assume a single character (m, for example), was a date.
  • Resolved some issues preventing the opening of DeltaGraph 3.5 files.  DetlaGraph 6 should now open files created with version 3.5 or later.
  • Resolved an issue that prevented DeltaGraph 6 from being able to open some files with the .dgp filename extension.
  • Resolved an issue with activation code that was producing the same request codes from different computers.
  • Resolved an issue which caused DeltaGraph to crash when running ICL commands.  ICL output is now PDF and PICT to the clipboard.
  • Resolved an issue when editing colors in RGB mode which caused the CMYK version of the color to be trashed.
  • Added a feature to Legend settings which allows the user to tighten the spacing between the legend symbol and its label.  This is accessible in the Legend Options dialog.  Negative numbers reduce the distance between the legend symbol and its label, while positive numbers increase this.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.9
  • Fixed issue which caused minor horizontal misalignment of symbols on two-dimensional charts, when the symbol size was less than 12 points.
  • Fixed crasher when reading some files.
  • Corrected legend for Paired XY line charts.  Legend now correctly uses the labels for the value columns.
  • New option for optimizing line chart drawing.  This option (on by default) can speed drawing of line charts (with no symbols shown) by as much as 10 times for charts with more than 5000 or so data points.  Drawing is subtly different:  ends of the lines, as well as all corners, will be rounded, rather than sharp.  In order to provide compatibility with the old style drawing, the option to turn off this behavior is included in the Drawing pane of the application preferences.  In addition, if a dash style is chosen for the line, and "Round Ends" is not chosen, the optimization will be disabled.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.8
  • Fixed several issues with AppleScript support.
  • Fixed problem reading DeltaGraph files created by DeltaGraph for Windows versions earlier than 5.0.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.7
  • Fixed proble with dates imported from Excel files that use the "1904 Date System", typically only some Excel files created on Mac OS.  The symptom is dates that are 4 years and 1 day too early.
  • Fixed problem rendering chart labels which have multiple super and/or subscripts.
  • Fixed crasher:  Clicking "Revise Data" toolbar button when no chart is selected.
  • Fixed:  "Chart Options" and "Error Bars" toolbar buttons would sometimes do nothing.
  • Made several improvements to the data sheet view.
  • Added several command-key shortcuts.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.6

This version is a 32-bit Universal Binary, which will run on Mac OS 10.5 and later (including 10.6.x).

  • Fixed problem with drawing in data sheets when column widths were set to be too small to fit the a single character.
  • Fixed problem with drawing the sheet popup (when clicked) where the selected data sheet had a long, non-Roman title.
  • Fixed: Could not change fill pattern for label text.
  • Fixed: Issue with saving some version 5.x and earlier files.
  • Fixed: Issue with contour labels disappearing when saved to a library.
  • The “Chart” toolbar item now works as in version 5.x: a click works like the “Chart Gallery” menu item, while a click and hold brings up a popup menu with options.


New Features in DeltaGraph 6.0.5

This version is a 32-bit Universal Binary, which will run on Mac OS 10.5 and later (including 10.6.x).

  • Fixes for editing of rotated text blocks. Rotation is preserved, and no more crashes.
  • Fixed issues with importing data that includes dates and / or times. These would formerly be imported, but when edited would appear as unformatted numbers.
  • Control over alignment of labels with superscripts and subscripts. Normally, labels are aligned so that their tops are aligned. With the changes in this version, the labels can optionally be aligned by their baselines. To change the alignment of labels for a chart, select the chart, and press Command-Option-R. To change back to the default alignment, hit Command- Option-R again.
  • Corrected some Japanese - localized tool tips.
  • Removed the Text Shadow button from the Object Attributes dialog, so that only the object Shadow button is available. This button works for all objects.
  • Fixed the Shadow button in the Set All Text dialog so that it works with both label text and text blocks made with the text tool.
  • Fixed problem writing SOME files containing text blocks. Text blocks would initially display incorrectly when the file was opened on Windows.
  • Initial release of Japanese language version.
  • Fixed problems with crumpled text in activation process on Japanese systems.
  • Fixed calculation of size for built-in symbols. Previously, the font metrics of the last selected font were used to calculate the size of the built-in symbol. Now, a standard size (equal to the font size) is used.
  • Fixed crasher when trying to select one of the charts in a multichart chart (QC XBar-R, for example).
  • Changed the Headers and Footers dialog to use the actual page name of the current page when displaying a sample.
  • Fixed problem with drawing symbols in 3-d scatter charts.
  • Fixed problem which prevented graphics export from the Organizer View.
  • Fixed a couple minor issues inside the Symbols dialog.
  • Fixed a problem that would sometimes cause crashes when rendering built-in symbols.
  • Fixed problem with “Revert” menu item with files with non-Western filenames.
  • Fixed crasher when trying to save to a write-protected directory.
