Measure 2012.2 Features and Fixes This is primarily a maintenance release with several new minor features but many bug fixes. However, during this development cycle we have done much work creating building blocks of code for several major projects that will become available in future releases during 2012 and 2013. S82954 As a user I would like to have the tab name available as a tag for any report. Open Print window to the Headers and Footers tab. Click within the Element: field to expose the Report Elements window where each color is a hyperlink field for defining regions of the report. In this example I want the lower Right Footer to show the Sheet Name and the Page Number.
S88663 "As a user, I want to be able to see the ghost lines in the tile editor more clearly." When painting tiles in previous versions Measure s Tile Editor showed only the outline of the potential pattern while painting. Starting in 2012.2 the inside of the potential pattern will have a solid tinting related to the same color as the outline. There are times when this can really help the user see better what is happening during the process. Even drawing a single tile in certain circumstances could be difficult to determine what was occurring during the drawing process. Old method New Method S94008 "As a user when I create a curved line, I would like the points in the curve excluded from the Corner Count calculation." S94300 "As a NHMS user under Citrix, I would like Measure to minimize during the allocation process to speed up the process". The NHMS export process involves running allocation over and over again with different scenarios. This is apparently generating a lot of screen activity that bogs things down over Citrix. The users get around this by minimizing Measure -- but they have to do this at the exact right moment. If they wait too long the window is unresponsive. They would like the window to minimize automatically and then restore when complete.
S94272 "As a user, I expect tile to be aligned against the edge for flaps and stacks (not centered) because this is how tile is installed the majority of the time." OLD METHOD NEW METHOD
S94687 "As a user of both Measure Mobile and Measure Desktop, I would like to see both of my licenses shown in the Measure Desktop Options dialog". Show the renewal date for both Desktop and Measure Mobile Estimator license if the user has one. With both licenses activated with the same email address, the PC Measure user may use the Measure Mobile Services/Measure Mobile Estimator feature and import a Measure Mobile Estimator job into the PC Measure edition. If these licenses are registered to the same Company, then all Measure Mobile Estimator accounts with their jobs will be available for download to the PC Measure edition for further editing. This is a download, one-way process, only. You may download from the Measure Mobile Estimator to the PC Measure but you cannot export from the PC Measure to the Measure Mobile Estimator at this time. In the future, this function may be allowed but since server storage would be involved, there will be a nominal fee for this upload service.
S94630 User should be able to enter a manual value for an EA product when multiple rooms are selected in the new add-on dialog. We have been reluctant to allow this because users can apply data that would result in numbers that were not expected by the user. Example: 3 rooms require the same EA type manual count for a drop charge.
The total does show correctly in the Worksheet.
FIXES S94580 As a user when I create a new slab project I expect the slab cuts to stay on the slabs in layout mode. S94319 Z Order should be correct after Duplication of Rooms and Imported Graphic. S93610 "As a user when I duplicate a room with 3d Walls, I don't want this operation to take a long time." S93951 "As a user when I have a user defined roll that does not have any cuts on it, I still want it displayed in the cuts window." S94610 App Error: Please allow a user to open the cvmc revised 12 8 11 project. S94175 User found that when a 3D room is flipped (Horizontally or Vertically) then the room does not look correct in a 3D viewer. S94397 Prevent the imported raster graphic from turning black after importing and duplicating the sheet. S94596 "Cursor should be correct after drawing a room, clicking select, clicking undo to open a room." S94597 Drawing line should refresh after a zoom in/out. S94626 "Import Vector Graphic, Rotate, Crop and Scale, printout should include the entire graphic". S94630 "As a user, I want to set the quantity of a manual add-on for multiple rooms at once". S94609 "After importing a mixed pdf as raster image, rescale should be correct after using the measure method". S94617 "As a user, I expect all the rooms with a roll product to be covered with cuts of material" S94396 "Prevent the imported raster graphic from turning black after importing, straighten, project save and project reopen." S95001 "When importing a CAD, the default folder should stay the default folder each time the user imports a CAD." S95004 "When zooming out all the way using the mouse wheel, Measure freezes up for a couple of seconds before the user can interact. S94652 Project check-up needs to detect issues with Random QuickTile designs. S94705 Prevent the dotted drawing lines from disapearing from view while drawing. S94644 Altering the keypad value (after clicking on a room edge) should alter the selected room shape and not start another room. S94685 Remove single point from a hole that has multiple points. Only one point should be removed.
S94984 Zoom is slow when Show Images is turned on. S94628 License manager - When reissuing a license the expiration date shown in the email should not be less than today's date Licenses. S94642 "App Error: Product catalog, copy contents of a field and paste into a selected new blank row". S94987 The entire phone number is not showing up in the customers dialog when the Windows Classic theme is applied to Windows 7.

S94738 New Stack - Default product should be first product in the Ceramic w/grout list Stacks S95000 "When importing an image, the default folder should stay the default folder each time the user imports a image." S94598 Closing the add-on dialog should not cause a different program to be brought to the foreground. S94643 Edge should stay selected after zoom out. S87836 "As a user, I want to display large tile patterns in 3D without crashing the system". S94631 "As a user, I don't want the system to crash when I set pattern start with Product explorer active". S94606 Prevent bug when project opened which contains invalid transition reference point S95002 Default location for saving files should stay the default location when opening files. S94607 "As a user, I expect to be able to fit to grid without error". 06/11/2012
