Ezigrade 2.7.0.58

PDF Report:
Have added some extra functionality to the PDF report.

• You can add in user defined text at the start. It can contain anything that you want. 
• Have given user the option of displaying screen capture for natural/design/difference as either 1 or 2 screen grabs per page.

We have also added in an "AGD" export. Useful for getting your job into TerraCutta.

CDS 2.7.0.41

Have made the following improvements / bug fix's.

1. Ability to pick up the current surface as a design along a profile. You would use the following. First get a string and interpolate a profile and sections along it. In Profile View right click and select the option "Design From Surface". Make sure you have the appropriate surface displayed. The design will be created on the active design.
2. Fixed issue when importing KML files. Coordinates which included heights were picking up the lat and lon in the wrong order.
3. if selecting things by polygon you needed to hit enter then escape to cancel. Now only need to hit escape.
4. Unicode LandXML files will now import.

Ezigrade 2.7.0.57

Added in Constrained Points.

We have added in the ability to add in a point or a series of points that we call a "constrained point". This forces our design to warp the surface so the height on our graded surface match's the fixed height of this point. There are numerous uses's for this function. For example we can add some points along the edge of the job that match the edge of a designed drain. Our field will now match.

In the example below the design on the left is what we have with no constrained point. We have shown it's position as a reference. The design on the right is with a constrained point. You will notice that the contours are warped around the right edge to match the constrained point.

Ezigrade 2.7.0.56

• When autocreating surfaces and contours. Program now uses contour intervals appropriate to the data range of the points in the job
• When File - Open - types of files Farmscan  *.path ; import was not working - now fixed.
• Broke Licence dialog on last update 

Ezigrade 2.7.0.55

A number of routines have been added/modified to improve the workflow and to "Dummy" proof the software. Enhancements include:

• Section axes. You can now left click to select. The Axes is drawn at a larger scale and a grip box is attached. If you left click within the grip box you can rotate the axis visually. You can still enter a value manually if required.
• You can now left click with a section and the appropriate section is displayed along the left edge.
• Menu layout has been changed to streamline the workflow. All reports are now under the Report menu.
• Previously when creating a plane solution, you needed to set both min and max values in either/or X and Y directions. Now only need to set the minX/minY. Unneeded parameters are now greyed out.
• Get section grades was not working correctly if axes rotated.
• When creating hinged sections - hinge was not correct if Axis of both sections was not the same.
• When doing "grading by grid" software now checks if the number of rows and columns is too large - which means large solution times and prompts user for a larger grid.
• When creating Contours - the Escape key will stop the process if needed.
• When removing section links etc, everything is cleaned up.

Ezigrade 2.7.0.55

You can open up external data files directly:

From File - Open command then in the "Files of Type" drop down combo, you can search directly for a supported file.  If for example you have a AMW file called   job1.nez then you can open this file directly.

Ezigrade prompts you on any thing need to import it and a file called  job1.cdsdat is automatically created.

You can still use the File -Open and then the File - Import routines as previously.
