The composition tool now has a tool to change the display order of elements on the canvas. You can raise or lower elements so that they appear in front or behind other elements. You can use this tool to put a border around a group of elements, or to put a logo or watermark in to the background.
You can also copy a picture of the currently selected element on to the clipboard, and then paste that image into other applications such as word processors or presentation packages.
Minor changes and fixes:
The Block builder algorithm received some fine scale adjustments to help it create more compact shapes. Previously the algorithm had a tendency to allow 'checker board' polygons. The new version is much less likely to allow this. Checkerboards will occur if the size penalty factor is large relative to other objectives (such as haul costs).
The Dissolve utility in some circumstances was incorrectly creating more than one shape for each dissolve item. This has been fixed.
Added extra handling of special characters in chart labels. Some characters were causing invalid JavaScript to be formed, and had to be converted into entities.
Report navigator should now work with all recent versions of Internet Explorer.
More documentation added for data prep tools.
Fixed PolygonSplitter bug that resulted in extraneous line segments being added to polygon files.
Add check for polygons with duplicated labels in Patchworks.
Fixed a problem in the 'Export to DBF' command that would cause Patchworks to get hung up.
