Foxfire! 8.0 - Build 395
Just up before DevCon (although we'll likely have another one around Monday)
Full
Refresh
IF you are installing on top of an existing directory, please be sure to ERASE the contents of that file. The install may not overwrite data files if you have recently revised them)
Lots of visual changes in this one so be sure to download the full install.
1. A new right-click option is available called Show / Hide workbench that lets you quickly hide or roll-up the workbench as needed. This is available from most of the labels in the design area.
2. You can now change Summary calculations properly. Previously the y weren't saving.
3. The number of items you've selected is now displayed on the Data Item tab. This makes it easier to know how many columns you will be displaying.
4. When changing the Color of a data item, it now appears properly.
5. In the Sort / Group tab, the Available Data Items list doesn't keep disappearing in VFP 8. (bug in VFP)
6. When upgrading, if you have the same preference names as the sample data sets, they will not appear. This is by design so that you don't overwrite the main sample data.
7. A variety of updates in text output. The files are now created properly and the output correctly goes to the right file extension.
8. You are no longer able to copy an empty filter.
9. Some sample data items have been corrected that were causing problems.
10. Hiding columns no longer conflicts with the groups.
11. Hidden fields are now not shown automatically in the Browse output.
12. The Cross -tab workbench now resizes properly.
