Just making some notes about the changes in 1.3, There's a couple I forgot to make note of, and I can't remember what they are! Oh well...
Added Control to the select keys.
Added Select Line tool.
Added Mousewheel Zoom.
Added delete-menu to edit favorites
Added Log watcher.
Added Apply Grid to Map
Added Max/Min view settings. (Useful for creating new maps)
More info!
- Select keys? Well, thats if you can select/unselect individual lines. Holding Control or Shift (In Mappie 1.2, you could only use shift) you can enlarge or reduce the selection.
- Select line tool? This tool lets you highlight a complete line. When you click one line, it automatically selects the rest of the line.
- Mousewheel zoom. Should be straight forward...
- Delete-menu in favorites. Well, this is still new... but lets you remove favorites. Haven't come up with a easy-to-use way of creating the favorites yet.
- Log watcher: Oh, this will take some time to write up... Basically, when you give it a active Everquest log file (Going on in-game) on another computer (It'll work with same computer, but I don't reccomend it.) And it will watch that log for changes. When you type /loc, it marks that location on the map. Further, you have the option of additional marks. With this, it will look for people shouting locs, etc. and mark the positions they shouted on the map. This may be a bit buggy, as people can shout in any format... but it recognizes several popular formats.
- Apply grid to Map: Take the display-grid and add it to the actual map. (The display is then turned off)
- Max/Min view settings. (Useful for creating new maps) Controls how far the map extends, mostly for purposes of screen-display calculations. Also has the ability to move lines outside of the boundry to inside of the boundry... People asked for it to be able to do this, I have no idea why.
