Thanks for fixing the "calibrating JPEG" problem. I was just about to post a message to the forum about this issue.

1. When using the "live layer report" you can save the report to file by clicking on the report. The format of this file has been modified to include more information, including the style names. It is a comma-separated text file which can be opened and edited in, for instance, Excel.
2. Under layer set-up you have an option to link individual objects to documents. One option offered is htm and html files, however someone has pointed out that if you choose html files you get htm. This has now been fixed so that you can choose either. |

| A user had a shape file that contained points including a couple of points with invalid coordinates - ie billions of kilometres. This caused MM to fall over when trying to import the shape file. The latest update ignores these points. |

1. DXF files are text files. Some text files end each line with a carriage return and a line feed while others only have a line feed. Map Maker is designed to distinguish between the two. However, we have recently come across DXF file that mis the two formats - ie most of the file only uses line feeds while other parts also include carriage returns. So MM has been modified to accomodate this absurdity.
2. Under "File - System set up - Preferences - Editing - Default vector layer label option", we have added the option "no label". |

| Some tiff files, not many, store their data as colour separations rather than as a colour value for each pixel. Typically these are satellite images. In Map Maker some of these images were not registering the separations correctly. This has now been fixed. |

| Polygons have the option of "arrow labels". Styles also have the option of polygons having no label. When the "no label" option was selected it was not correctly hiding the arrow labels. It now is. |

| Under "Layer set up - Data link - On hit - Document of link - Link layer - EXE" if you entered a command line starting with a quotation mark the quotation mark was lost when re-opeing layer set-up. This has now been fixed. |

If you double click on a GEO file in Windows Explorer it opens Map Maker and opens the project (the GEO file). Similarly, you can run a command line with a geo file as a parameter, eg:
"c:\map maker\mmm.exe" "c:\maps\my map.geo"
Thats all fine if the geo file has been constructed from scratch. However, it seems that if the geo file has been archived to a zip file (using project manager) and then unzipped then it fails to open the project correctly - i.e. database links can be corrupted. This anomoly has now been fixed. |

| Under "Utilities - Bitmap utilities - Calibrate scan - two known points", if you zoomed before defining the first refernce point then the image could disappear off the screen when you tried panning to the second reference point. This has now been fixed. |
