In the latest update two problems are fixed:
1. The function under the "Edit - Live data menu" for the live layer to inherit attribute data from other layers was malfunctioning where the data was in a DBF file.
2. Under "Edit - live layer options - when drawing snap vertices to", when the option "infill vertices between ticks" was selected, under some circumstances, the program could incorrectly backtrack and include the wrong vertices. |

Under "Utilities - Vector utilities - Import file" a new option has been added of relevance to MM users in the UK - "OS VectorMap Local (*.vml)". Note that:
1. the Ordnance Survey supply these files without any file extension so you need to manually add the unofficial extension "vml".
2. VectorMap Local polygons perversely do not support polygons with holes in them, so where there are polygons with holes there is a connecting there and back line linking the outer ring to the inner one.
3. The feature (or style) system is different to that in OS MasterMap. We adjusted the style numbers so that the most important feature codes, such as building outlines, road centre lines, contours, water features, etc correspond to the styles found in the "uk_os.stl" style file |

| When using "File - Print - Scaled print - Automatic - Edit side panel" (or "Edit bottom panel" for potrait format paper) and then using RTF panels it is possible for the RTF text to become corrupted. In these circumstances when returning to the panel editor it can cause a run-time error. The program has now been modified to not fall over in this situation. |

The latest update has two enhancements to the GPS utilities:
1. "Utilities - GPS utilities - Import data" now includes GPX
2. "Utilities - GPS utilities - Live GPS data" now includes an extra check box "Track on map". When checked the current GPS location (if the GPS is active) is shown on the screen with a red cross. If need be the map is automatically re-navigated to ensure that the GPS location is on screen. Remember to use, if need be, the "Change current projection" button to set the projection to be the same as that used in your map. If you close the "Live GPS data" window it will stop the GPS data, if you minimize it it will continue. |
