Hi Guys,
Here is the latest BETA version, 2.6.1. I'm putting it out now as 3 guys have noticed a bug where they lost work they were working on. This was occurring if they clicked open inspection while they had an inspection open and just clicked open (thinking they were saving), or a bug where a corrupt image was added which couldn't be saved. I have had to disable some of the new features I've been working on as they haven't been tested out enough yet. Below are the list of updates in this version. A few of you have got a minor beta update a few weeks ago so a few of these you might have already seen.
Oh, there's no Documents included in this update, so you want have documents you've deleted reappearing (frequently asked for update, especially for those outside of Texas).
Please make sure the program is closed before you run the update. If you have any difficulties updating, reboot , then update.
If anyone noticed any problems, please let me know immediately so they can be corrected. Download link is below.
(If you aren't on the beta team and would like a copy, send me a pm or email)
New Feature: If screen resolution has a height less than 600 pixels (for UMPC devices like the Samsung Q1), the Red/Black/Delete buttons have been brought closer together so they are all visible on the screen.
New Feature: Under Report Settings->Options->Security, added an option to turn PDF encryption on or off (highly recommended you leave it on so clients cannot edit reports).
New Feature: Confirmation windows pops up when you save a contact.
New Feature: Progress monitor lets you know the progress when uploading a report to the server.
Design Change: The right side of the Edit Template window now displays a Scroll bar if needed.
Design Change: Renamed Report Settings->Item Description to Report Settings->Item Name Format (i.e. Cabinets, Doors, Floors, etc).
Design Change: Extra line removed from the summary section when using the Bullet + New Line option.
Design Change: First item has a bullet in the summary when using the Bullet + New Line option.
Design Change: Rotate Counterclockwise has been removed to allow the photo editor to be smaller for low resolutions.
Design Change: Undo/Redo in photo editor have been put side by side to allow editor to shrink for low resolutions (used by small tablet/UMPC's like Samsung Q1)
Design Change: Entire photo editor scales for smaller screens so it fits in within the window. (Updated again to keep it a bit larger on larger screens).
Design Change: Client Information Panel will add scroll bars if the whole window can't fit on the screen (when computer resolution is set below 800x600).
Design Change: File Names are no longer allowed to have a double space in them. Adobe Acrobat has issues opening these files on some system.
Design Change: Open Inspection window prevents you from opening a file that doesn't exist (by just typing in a name), or opening a file not created from Home Inspector Pro.
Bug Fix: If there were multiple black items and only one red item, the red item would not start on a new line (when using bullets + new line or new line as the separator).
Bug Fix: Correction made for users whose username is more than one word
Bug Fix: Fixed issues when opening a template and inspection and Edit Tables was turned on. The first tab in each section would have the default description text and separator type
Bug Fix: On website under when viewing list of reports, the month was incorrect.
Bug Fix: Built in protection against an image being corrupt causing the inspection file to become corrupt as well when saving.
Bug Fix: You couldn't always batch add after reopening a saved inspection, now fixed.
Bug Fix: Clicking open inspection and clicking open (when a file that doesn't exist isn't selected) won't wipe your inspection.
