Changes since version 3.50

version 3.54
  • Improvements to pie chart production
    • Now reduce radius if any slice is exploded, so exploded pie has same overall diameter as a non-exploded pie
    • Modified radius calculation to take proper account of all text sizes, borders etc and remove all magic numbers
    • Improve placement of percent values
    • For two pies, plot either horizontal or vertical to give largest radius
  • Fix: text background and foreground not being set correctly in draw file export - anti-aliasing was incorrect
  • Load data now skips blank lines correctly; before it stopped loading any more after a blank line
  • Load data now discards input lines with only " and , characters; i.e. no data
  • Now check that there is something to show when plotting heading and subheading text
version 3.53
  • Fix in mode change handling for fonts
  • Number of internal changes to improve execution
version 3.52
  • Option to show or not show percentages on pie chart
  • Chart key box now allows long legends to split at a space to give two rows
  • Fix: Caret display when save as dialogue grabs caret and then gives it back
  • Style guide change - each new input window opens 48 os units lower, rather than all being exactly on top of each other
version 3.51
  • Fix: Quit message and action when data is unchanged
  • Fix: Filer running a chart file when ChartDraw is not running
