Templot2 update version 227d now available

[Martin Wynne]

Another Templot program update is now available. Version 227d.

If you are using version 227c, 227b, 226f or earlier, your copy of Templot should update automatically if you restart it and follow the instructions. If you have the Templot Video Player open, please close it first.

This is a maintenance bug-fix release with no new features.

---

• If you are using Templot version 227a , the automatic update will fail due to a program glitch. Sorry about that -- please download and install version 227d manually from:

https://85a.uk/templot/companion/manual_update.php

There is no need to uninstall your existing copy of Templot.

cheers,

Martin.

with no new features

Well actually that was a lie.

I don't like to release an update without at least one new feature. But in this case it is underwhelmingly arcane -- in 227d I have added an additional data conversion prefix. Letter r (or R) now lets you enter dimensions in prototype chains, to be converted to model mm. That's most likely to be wanted when entering a radius dimension:

(1 chain is 66ft, so 5 chains is 1320mm in 4mm/ft scale.)

cheers,

Martin.
