- Version 2.4
- -----------
- 1. Added a simple version of Layer structures into EEDRAW, The Layer data
- allows the user to select the amount of information visable on the
- screen at anyone time, This in turn lets the user add more user
- defined data to both the library and the drawings. There is a set
- pre defined layers in the code, but the user should have atleast
- 15 layers available for themselves. There will also be a change to
- the printer drivers so only selected information/Layers are printed
- out.
- 2. Changes made to the status display in the name line at the top of
- a drawing to reflect the current drawing layer, also the current
- state of the file and drawing modes.
- 3. Added code to allow the user to select a single colour display mode
- still hanging onto the layer control data.
- 4. Two utilities added to the program suite, conv.exe - convert old style
- database's to version 2.4. There is a write up for this in the main
- EEDRAW documentation. Also EElib.exe - used to manage the library
- file's. There is a seperate document for this. Both document files
- have also been added in WordPerfect form, files with the '.WP'
- extension.
-
- Version 2.3
- -----------
- 1. Missed out due to a mixup with Simtel20 over version number,
- Some version 2.2 systems are labeled 2.3
-
- Version 2.2
- -----------
- 1. Add net list capability to eedraw. The net list generated can not
- destinguish BUS connections and list all of them (How other similar
- tools handle that!?).
- 2. Enlarged the capacity of the library so bigger items may be defined.
- If you tried to define a part and eedraw said 'too big...', try again.
-
- Version 2.1
- -----------
- 1. Fix a minor bug when attempt is made to use one of the save routine
- where no active window exists.
- 2. Added LoadLibByName and ChDirLibraries functions in the lib menu.
- Enable loading libraries from a different directory than the current
- one. A new variable LibrariesPath has been added to eedraw.cfg and
- which specifies the default eedraw lib directory (can be changed using
- ChDirLibraries function).
-
- Version 2.0
- -----------
- 1. A radical user interface change. A new window based tool kit has been
- developed (under msdos not MS windows) and was used in eedraw for the
- following:
- a. MULTI WINDOWS which implies multiple files may be manipulated
- simultaneously.
- b. Input devices may be keyboard/mouse/joystick in any combination.
- c. Display devices can virtually be any device supporting the BGI
- protocol.
- d. On line help.
- e. Back saving into expanded memory or (ram) disk file.
- f. Colors are now user setable.
- This tool kit completely isolates the EEdraw program from Borland's
- graphics. Porting this program to a new environment means developing a
- similar tool kit. Users of EEdraw 1.0 should very easily adopt to this
- environment as the program structure is very much the same.
-
- Version 1.2
- -----------
- 1. Fix minor bug in 'Continue' window displayed after vertical data having
- wrong width.
- 2. Allow scaled text (up to factor of 7) using SetTextSize entry in the
- status pull down menu.
- 3. All graphics calls have been moved to IGraph.c to isolate this device
- dependency in one file. graphics.h is still sources by other file as they
- use its constants (CENTERing text, colors etc.).
-
- Version 1.1
- -----------
-
- 1. Support has been added to CGA devices on the one hand and Super VGA on
- the other. Hook for ATT device has been added as well but not tested.
- The BGI drivers are not linked in and loaded by demand. This freed about
- 20k.
- 2. Cursor is positioned in the query, so if for example a Yes/No query pops
- up, the cursor will be positioned on the Yes.
- The Yes/No query now accept Y/N keystrokes.
