Today I have released the new version 3.0.5.0 of DATHeader.
Sorry for all linux guys, it does not work under MONO.
For all other it might be worth to have a look to the new features. You will
find the details and a download link on http://mikeheide2.kilu.de.

One problem and one question:
- The viewer window remains desperately empty, is there something special to do?
- Why don't you add the primitives scale file also in the zip?

Did you check the "use internal viewer" checkbox in the preferences dialog?

Because you have the possibility to put the list files wherever you want (please
see preferences dialog). This way it is much easier for newbies. (I hope).

I did, but didn't restart Datheader after. It works now. Is there a good reason
not to check the box by default on the first run?

Well... I don't think so. Imho the best way is to include the file in the zip
and by default use current Datheader forlder, so everything works "out of the
box". If the user want to change file list location he just has to change
default folder...

As this a time consumption feature that is new, I thought it would be best to
first leave that out and if you like you can save your preference.
For best viewing there is still LDView.exe where you could have a closer look to
the part.

That was my first intend but I was told that if you have this in your programm
folder on VISTA or Windows7 you can not write into that directory. If that is
true the user can put it anywhere. That's the reason why I only have the
application core files in the distribution zip.

Good point (well, maybe, I just updated to XP from win2k...). But since latest
Datheader versions are delivered as a zip, then updating the program needs
exactly the same permissions as updating the data files???

Yes, if you are the admin, then this is correct. But there are still people out
there that do not have admin privilegs.
Otherwise if I thought about that in deep it does not make sense as I do not
deliver any installer anymore.
I think with next release I will put that file into the distro.

Please stop downloading this version as it has a bug in detecting double lines.
I am working on that bug and hope to release today updated version.

I have fixed that problem. It has been in the xmpd.dll version 2.2.1.
Now version 2.2.2 is in the download package at
http://mikeheide2.kilu.de/index.php?page=datheader and detecting double lines is
working again.
Sorry for that trouble.
