What's new in Linguistic Tree Constructor 3.1.0
Nov 1, 2011
- The first enhancement is the addition of the ability to display tooltips on the phrase-level buttons and label checkboxes in the left part of the window. See the User's Guide for how to add these to your labels.txt and/or phrase_types.txt files. THIS ALSO MEANS THAT FILES SAVED WITH LTC 3.1.0 MAY NOT WORK CORRECTLY IN OLDER VERSIONS. Care has been taken not to modify the file format unless you use tooltips in either phrase_types.txt or labels.txt. However, IF YOU USE THE DEFAULT labels.txt or phrase_types.txt, YOUR FILE SAVED WITH LTC 3.1.0 WILL NOT WORK WITH PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF LTC. This is because these files now contain tooltips.
- The syntax-node type "Relation" ("R") has been added to syntax_nodes.txt.
- The syntax-node / phrase-type panel to the left has been given a scrollbar that appears if the window cannot contain the full list. This is useful if you resize the window and still want to use the full range of syntax nodes / phrase types. - The default size of the window has been made slightly taller to accommodate the new "Relation" syntax node. The bugfix is that On Mac OS X, the .dmg file now works out of the box on Leopard (10.5). Before, Leopard could show a message saying that the .dmg image was corrupted. It was not, but Leopard complained anyway.
New in Linguistic Tree Constructor 3.0.4 (Sep 20, 2010)
- Before, if you selected the top-level node "Text") and tried to make a syntax node out of it, the program would crash. Now the program gives an error message instead and doesn't crash.
- In both the vertical tree and the horizontal tree, all Word-level boxes are centered.
- In the horizontal tree, branch labels no longer show up above the node, but below the node.
- In the horizontal tree, there is now a box around each nonterminal node, and branch labels show up below the node box, boxed themselves.
New in Linguistic Tree Constructor 3.0.3 (Dec 18, 2009)
- The following bug has been fixed:
- Having an ampersand ("&") in the filename of an LTC file would result in it not being able to be read back in again.
- The XML written by LTC could be read by LTC, but not by any other -- conforming -- XML-parser.
- In addition, the program is now a good bit faster at loading files --
- especially large files.
- Also, you can now open your webbrowser to subscribe to the LTC
- mailinglists, as well as see the LTC website, all from within the
- program.
- Upgraded to Emdros 3.1.1.pre05.
- Upgraded to wxWidgets 2.8.10 on Win32.
- Upgraded to MUI2.nsh for ltc.nsi.in (NSIS installer script).
- Fixed missing trailing semicolon in Categories entry in SRC/linguistic-tree-constructor.desktop.
- COPYING now has DOS line endings.
- SRC/mainframe.cpp: ABOUT box now shows 2009, not 2008, as Copyright year.
- Added possibility of signing up for announcements mailinglist on Windows, via a special menu entry in the Start --> Programs --> LingTreeConstructor.
- Added Help menu items for seeting LTC website and subscribing to
- mailinglists (all platforms).
- Upgraded to Emdros 3.0.2.pre18, which gives a speed increase, especially for large files.
