Sorry, I don't know what went wrong with my original posting - here it is again.

Many thanks for your efforts to bring us this new version of Templot.

I downloaded it and installed according to the instructions - Windows XP SP3.

All went fine and I copied over my box and shape files from 0.91c, which loaded up ok.

This is my first try with TDV and the first time I've used Templot for quite a few months, so I guess I am probably quite rusty.

I loaded up the ruler to see what space I have availabe for what I want to do.

I noticed one oddity, not  a show stopper, but as you move the ends of the ruler around, the last line in the information window (Timbering length) gets repeated over and over again.

I don't know if it has always done this in previous versions, but I havn't noticed it.

After escaping from the ruler, click on background and then click in information window and it rights itself, so I won't be losing any sleep over it, but I thought you might like to know.

I'll upload the screen shot in a following message, in case that's what messed up my first posting.

Regards,

Pete

Ok, it didn't like me just pasting the screen shot into the message (that's what went wrong first time) so I've uploaded it as a Jpeg:

Hi Pete,

Many thanks for reporting this. :thumb:

The total timbering length data is new in this TDV update (requested by Ian). It was much trickier to do than you might think -- obviously I should have tested it a bit more thoroughly. :(

I will get it fixed.

p.s. to insert screenshots easily, click the Upload new image for insertion button above the editor space (Firefox and IE only).

TDV can create screenshots directly -- output > export a screenshot... menu item. :)

Thanks again,

Martin.

Hi Pete,

I have moved this out of the info panel and on to the shove timbers dialog instead:

In the next TDV update.
