V2.4 - 17 June, 2002 |
 |
PocketSat can now be run from a memory card and will keep its data on the card. Note that it still expects to find import (TLE) databases in the Palm's main memory. |
|
V2.3 - 17 May, 2001 |
 |
Added the ability to edit a satellite's name in
the "Satellite Details" form. The name will survive a data update.
|
 |
Fixed a bug that caused menus to close by themselves
on Kyocera SmartPhones.
|
 |
Added upgrade information to both the program and
the documentation.
|
 |
Fixed a bug that could cause PocketSat to come
up with a solid black screen on color devices.
|
 |
If MathLib was not present the program used to crash.
|
 |
Fixed the calculation progress bar for situations
when only a couple of satellites are involved in a calculation.
|
|
V2.2 - 29 November, 2000 |
 |
Fixed a bug when calulating passes for periods less than 3 hours long overlapping either sunrise or sunset. |
 |
Fixed the very infrequent but fatal "Bad Category" error. |
|
V2.1 - 11 November, 2000 |
 |
Added GMT+13 timezone for New Zealand during Daylight Savings Time |
 |
Fixed the "between 0 and -1 degrees Lat or Lon" bug (again.) |
 |
Selected pass is now maintained even if it scrolls off the screen |
 |
Fixed inverted bitmaps |
 |
Fixed a bug that could hang "visual pass" searches at very high (or low) latitudes |
 |
Added section to docs to describe "twilight" preference |
|
V2.0 - 14 June, 2000 |
 |
Added user-customizable color support, including night vision preserving "red mode." |
 |
Merged PocketSat.prc and SGPLib.prc into a single file. |
 |
Now allows multiple selectable observer locations. |
 |
Removed "visibility optimizations" as a preferences choice. |
 |
Added new optimizations. |
 |
Changed Latitude and Longitude entry (now takes N/S and E/W instead of +/-) |
|
V1.5 - 10 August, 1999 |
 |
Added the ability to set alarms that go off at or near the beginning of a pass. |
 |
Added tests to make sure there is enough memory before performing operations that need it. |
 |
Progress bar now shows completed fraction of entire calculation instead of just one satellite. |
 |
If "All Passes" is selected in Preferences, pass "goodness" in main list just reflects maximum altitude, not visibility. This is for radio people. |
 |
Added 24:00 to time choices dialog. |
|
V1.4 - 15 June, 1999 |
 |
Satellites are organized into PalmOs categories. |
 |
You can now add to a pass list, without clearing the results of previous calculations. |
 |
Added half-hour timezones. |
 |
The Pass Details form can now be copied to the clipboard. |
 |
Added a visibility optimization to test for times when the Sun is "too low." |
 |
The Pass Details form now shows 9 points, rather than 5. |
 |
If no satellites are selected, the program will tell you so if you try to perform a calculation. |
 |
The Satellites database is no longer backed up during a HotSync. This saves a lot of time. |
 |
Fixed a bug that prevented you from entering a longitude or latitude between 0 and -1 degree (kind of a bear for people in London.) |
|
V1.3 - 23 April, 1999 |
 |
Fixed DB import bug which could cause a crash if extra data was at the end of an import database. |
 |
Added GMT+9.5 timezone for South Australia. |
|
V1.1 - 30 March, 1999 |
 |
Added live elevation/azimuth display to plot. |
 |
Import process now rejects high-orbit satellites. |
 |
Added 'invert plot' option to prefs. |
 |
Added a "No satellites in list, use import feature..." message to satellites form. |
 |
Changed time zones from '-2' to 'GMT-2' for clarity. |
 |
Revamped memo import. |
 |
Added potentially useful error messages to both import methods. |
 |
Both import methods now verify data checksums. |
 |
'Thru' time now gets immediately set to requested end time
rather than waiting for calculation to complete. |
|
V1.0 - 11 March, 1999 |
 |
Initial release |
