  • Various minor bugs.
  • Various technical improvements.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.20 Build 2040 (Aug 11, 2009)

  • Diagrams can now contain multiple sheets. A sheet is like a page, though each sheet may itself be divided into multiple 'pages' for printing purposes. Currently each sheet is an extension of the diagram and therefore shares the same diagram properties and styles.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.13 Build 2033 (Jun 25, 2009)

  • New Copy Properties features.
  • Fixed a bug that affected dragging an arc end off a full loop arc with Keep Shape stretch method.
  • Fixed a bug that affected how self-transitions retain position when the base figure resizes.
  • Fixed a bug in connection point mode that prevented connection points from being placed on edges or centers of figures interactively with grid snap enabled and figure not aligned or sized perfectly to grid when.
  • Fixed a bug that caused screen relics when scrolling upwards with certain screen size designations.
  • Fixed a bug that caused margins depicted on screen to appear radically different at different zoom levels.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.12 Build 2032 (May 28, 2009)

  • Multiple arc stretch methods.
  • Support for closed arcs (loops), free and to/from a connection point on a figure. Includes support for snap, align, space evenly, and so on.
  • Improved self-transitions using arcs.
  • Set consistent self-transition size per diagram
  • Field text now updates immediately when changed. For example if field text displays the current file name, it is updated when the file is Saved As another name without any need to refesh the display.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented proper Undo when moving connection points on figures.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.10 Build 2030 (Mar 24, 2009)

  • A new type of curved connector, a simple arc, has been added.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.08 Build 2025 (Dec 9, 2008)

  • Reapply Styles - A feature has been added to allow the original style attibutes of an object to be restored.
  • When copying figure styles within the styles screen, the original figure style connection points and text margins were not copied to the new style.
  • When changing a figure's style (using the properties screen), the figure's text margins were not being updated properly.
  • When using search with extended characters in certain languages (codes beyond 0x80) a crash could occur if Match Case was not checked.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.07 Build 2024 (Nov 5, 2008)

  • Fixes a bug in which changing a figure's style reset the internal figure margin rather than using the margin of the style (if bound) or keeping the current margin (if unbound).
  • Fixes a bug in which copying an existing style did not copy it's connection points to the new style.
  • Fixes some very minor graphics issues.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.06 Build 2023 (Sep 16, 2008)

  • This version was originally released as build 2022 on 09/08/08. That build contained a bug preventing proper editing of text using the Text tab of the properties screen. This build fixes that bug.
  • Text Edit Context Menu While editing text (in Text mode), right-click now launches a context menu for easy access to commands like Cut, Copy, Paste, and so on, including the new Undo, Redo, and Insert Field commands (see below).
  • Text Fields Simple text fields can now be added to figure or label text. A text field is a string of text that reflects information about the diagram. Fields available in this version include file name, creation time, and last save time. Multiple formats are supported for each. Fields can be inserted into text by placing the text caret and choosing Insert Field from the main Edit menu or from the right click menu.
  • Text Edit Undo/Redo In earlier versions, figure and label text edits could only be undone in whole, reverting to the full text prior to any editing. Now individual text edits can be undone one at a time as is customary in word processing applications. While editing text in text mode, Undo is available from the Edit menu, from the right click context menu, or by the Ctrl-Z shortcut key sequence. Redo is also available in text mode as well (menu or Ctrl-Y). Note that Redo is currently only available for text editing while in text mode - it's not yet supported throughout the program.
  • Text Style "All Caps" A range of text can now be given an All Caps style which forces the text to be displayed in all capital letters (if possible). The All Caps style works similar to Bold or Italics. By default, it is available only in the context (right-click) menu, but you can add a custom toolbar button if you prefer. The main usage is to provide a way to force inserted text fields to be all capital letters.
  • Fixed a very minor bug in which page margin could be dragged and changed by accident when behind a diagram object.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.04 Build 2020 (Aug 5, 2008)

  • Fixes a critical bug introduced in v6.04.2019 which affects the Save As screen when used with Windows XP. A compatibility issue causes an "Unsupported Operation" message and interferes with the the save.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.04 Build 2019 (Aug 1, 2008)

  • The background layer is now drawn behind the grid, page boundaries, and margins.
  • Holding down the Alt key while doing a lasso selection in Normal view now selects objects on all layers.
  • Copy copies only the selected foreground objects. Background layer objects are not copied unless also selected.
  • The export screen now contains a "Background" option under the following conditions (1) foreground objects are selected (2) background objects are NOT selected (3) "Selected" option is chosen in the export file selection screen. When the background option is checked, the exported graphic will include the cropped background image behind the selected foreground objects. However, the exported image will remain cropped to the bounds of the selection rectangle, rather than being extended to include the entire background if the background is larger than the selection. See user guide or online help for further description.
  • Copy now adds a bitmap to the clipboard.
  • When editing a diagram embedded in another document, the view is now automatically adjusted to fit the embedded objects and the unnecessary page boundaries and margins are suppressed.
  • Exported metafiles (EMF and WMF) are now properly sized.
  • A bug has been fixed that caused certain text to appear in the wrong place when exporting to enhanced metafiles, or copying using OLE.
  • A series of mostly minor bugs has been fixed that affected the appearance of metafile images used for exporting and displaying OLE embedded images when pasting diagrams into external documents.
  • A bug has been fixed that caused some distortion of certain bitmap images imported or copied into diagrams, particularly those created by newer versions of MS Paint.
  • A bug has been fixed that caused a crash when selecting a new font from within the New Diagram Wizard.
  • A minor bug has been fixed in the Save As screen that caused the filename extension not to match the selected output format when a graphics format (not EDG) was selected.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.03 Build 2016 (Jun 28, 2008)

  • Tools Options Screen The interface to this screen changed from tabbed format to tree format in order to better categorize options controls, make room for more descriptive graphics, and prepare for additions in upcoming releases.
  • The default color palette included a duplicate color. Cyan and Aqua were equivalent in accordance with the X11 specification. This was both wasteful and confusing as either color would appear as Cyan when later reviewed. Aqua has now been re-defined to represent an appropriate new shade of the same color.
  • The Page Set-up screen was limiting page dimensions to 32 inches square unnecessarily. Some large format printers support larger page sizes that were being handled improperly. A design limit of about 64 inches (but not 32) was required, and has been set as the new limit.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.03 Build 2015 (Jun 13, 2008)

  • Slight change to interface - option tree replaces tabs.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.02.2014 (May 12, 2008)

  • Interactive margins adjustments: Page margins can now be adjusted with the mouse in addition to using the Page Setup screen.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.01.2013 (Apr 12, 2008)

  • Minor bug fixes and programmable zoom scroll interval

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.01.2012 (Mar 31, 2008)

  • Fixed a bug that caused controls to be shifted improperly in style screens when you change tabs.
  • Font script display for international users: An option has been added to control which font scripts (character sets) are included in the font family control in the toolbar and in property screens. By default, only fonts for the local language script are displayed. However, in some countries where diagrams can consist of a mixture of scripts, it's convenient to show all scripts, or to show those of a particular script. The new option is available in the (undocumented) Support Console for now, which is accessible from the system menu at the extreme upper left corner of the program.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.00.2005 (Mar 4, 2008)

  • Fixed uninstall issue. If you had trouble uninstalling v6.0, simply re-install the latest version, then uninstall.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 6.00.2000 (Feb 11, 2008)

  • Improved Windows Vista compatibility and support for Vista and XP visual styles and custom themes.
  • Custom data in the form of text memos can now be attached to any figure or label. The memo displays you hover over the object with the mouse. When saving a diagram as a web page, memo tips can be included with similar functionality.
  • A number of new color palettes are included for a wider variety of convenient color selections.
  • Tool tip help is now available when hovering the mouse over styles, drop menus, color selections and so on.
  • Object properties can now be applied from the properties screen without terminating the screen. The same is true for diagram properties and options.
  • Some key shortcuts have been added for more convenient and standardized text editing. For example, Ctrl-B can be used as a shortcut to Bold text, Ctrl-I to italicize text, Ctrl-L to left-justify text, and so on. These function in the same manner as other leading software packages.
  • The Fill properties screen now contains a simple feature to copy all of the fill properties from any object or style to another. In prior versions, only the solid fill color was easy to duplicate from one object to another. Now all the possible combinations of gradient options can be easily copied and pasted as easily from one object or style to another.
  • Graphics import and export have been improved, as reflected in both the Export feature and the Save as HTML feature. Bitmap formats such as BMP and JPG have been improved and better standardized, and PNG output has been both corrected and improved.
  • Import support for the outdated and less popular PCX format has been discontinued.
  • Font family controls now support sample text previews.
  • Several key screens which can remain up between operations now remember their positions from one invocation to another.
  • As of version 6.0, this product no longer supports Windows versions for which Microsoft has announced it is discontinuing support. This includes Windows 95 and earlier operating systems, and Windows 98 in part. Support for Windows 98 is still included but with lower testing and support priority.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.09.1851 (Nov 10, 2007)

  • Adds page set-up default programming

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.09.1850 (Nov 7, 2007)

  • Page set-up and printing bug fixes

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.09.1849 (Nov 1, 2007)

  • Fixes a very critical bug introduced in build 1841 that caused connection points to load incorrectly, resulting in connectors being attached to figures improperly (at the wrong points). This case only occurred when connections attached at connection points, not when simply attached at the center of figures. Once saved, the errors introduced become permanent and require connections to be adjusted manually. Therefore, this update is very important if you are using v5.09 between build 1841 and 1848, please update immediately.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.09.1843 (Oct 23, 2007)

  • Fixes two bugs that could cause diagrams saved in versions prior to 5.09 to lose page set-up information such as page size and orientation, and possibly text line spacing settings when loaded in version 5.09.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.09.1841 (Oct 16, 2007)

  • Internal text margins can now be set individually for any figure.
  • A new page set-up model allows setting of pages with any dimensions regardless of printers available on your computer. Page sizes that are larger than the selected printer can handle are automatically divided into multiple pages similar to poster mode. This feature makes diagrams more portable from one computer to another in which different printer drivers are installed.
  • Tabs support in figure text. Figures can now include tabs and settable tab stops (left, center, and right justified).
  • Text wrap and figure size contraints have been improved and some related bugs fixed.
  • Crop marks printed on partitioned pages are printed more intelligently, only where needed.
  • Fixed a bug that made connecting to graphic symbols a bit awkward by requiring the adding of connection points when no fill color (the default) was used.
  • Fixed a bug that could result in connectors not fully reaching the edges of some graphic symbols when printed (to printer or PDF) or exported to a metafile.
  • When setting a hyperlink for a figure, you can now specify a diagram file that does not yet exist (defaults to the same folder as the current diagram), and in one step the link will be created and you will be given the opportunity to create the new diagram.
  • Holding down the middle mouse button (or mouse wheel button) will now allow you to grab and drag the view as an alternate method of scrolling.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.08.1836 (Jun 15, 2007)

  • Bug fixes and minor improvements

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.08.1835 (May 22, 2007)

  • Fixed a bug that could cause a crash in a rare condition in which connectors are being moved around and overlapped.
  • Fixed a bug that interfered with hard linefeeds being entered in certain text edit controls within dialog boxes.
  • Fixed a bug that caused excessive screen updates under certain circumstances resulting in noticeable delays on slower computers.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause a crash intermittently when attempting to align a combination of figures and connectors.
  • Fixed a bug that could result in a copied label becoming unreceptive to being attached to connectors.
  • Fixed a bug that made it difficult to use a non-container as a container object by simply removing its fill color and hiding any text areas.
  • Fixed a minor bug that could cause slight discrepancies when using "Fit to Text" feature with figures that have text wrap. Other cases do remain and are being addressed.

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.07 (Jun 23, 2006)

  • Improved export and copy/paste of shadows, shading, and gradient fills

New in EDGE Diagrammer 5.06 (May 29, 2006)

  • Improved graphics, drop shadows, shading, and gradient fills
