Foxfire! 8.0 - Build 429
Build 429 is now available.
Full Install
Refresh
If you download the refresh build, unzip it with paths intact. There is a new bitmap in use (FFX.BMP).
Summary of updates:
34894 - You can now use the Delete key on the keyboard to remove a filter
38278 - When dragging and dropping a file from the import, only files with an FFX or XML extension are accepted.
39150 - When sending an error report, we are now sending the current request you are on, even when running a report.
34683 - When printing cross-tabs, we now prompt for the printer settings on each strip. This is unfortunate but necessary because cross-tabs re-print each strip separately. Previously, you might cancel one strip but the other 3 would then print automatically.
34810 - Data Type mismatch error when saving Joins in the Relationship Finder.
38162 - The default email subject is now "Results from Foxfire!".
38867 - Error when attempting to browse a report with a hidden field at the end.
38877 - Error removing data items in a cross-tab report.
39765 - When using Batches, the Run button is only enabled when a batch has been saved. This was inconsistent in previous builds.
39777 - When running a batch, you can now simply create a Desktop Shortcut without scheduling or Running the batch.
42353 - In the Request Manager, batches use the Batch icons / Imports and Exports now rely on the new FFX icons.
45184 - Fix for changing email output options in a request
45409 - Fixed some problems running batches.
37774 - Data Item Tab refresh problem when adding Cars Make and Model.
37867 - Sending requests and results via email is more consistent. As soon as you choose Outlook, Foxfire! will remember this between sessions so you should not need to be re-prompted. This can be important as if Foxfire! knows you are sending via Outlook or an SMTP server, it will automatically attach the output. If it does not know the outgoing server, it will bring up an empty email but you will need to attach the output file yourself.
