What's new in Date Calculator 3.2
Sep 16, 2020
- The purpose of this release is to synchronise library code across all Blank
- Aspect projects. It has no significant changes from the previous release.
New in Date Calculator 3.1 (Nov 5, 2017)
- Bug: Since Java 9, if the 'Select text when focus is gained' preference has the value 'Yes', the selection of a text field remains highlighted after the field loses keyboard focus.
New in Date Calculator 3,0 (Nov 3, 2017)
- This release has been made primarily to synchronize the Java packages that are common to several Blank Aspect projects.
- Added the option for the calendar in the date-selection dialog to show the days of the months adjacent to the current month.
New in Date Calculator 2.3 (Sep 28, 2013)
- Bug fix:
- If the general.showUnixPathnames configuration property was true, the user's home directory at the start of a pathname was not replaced with "~" when the pathname was displayed.
- Other changes:
- The default directory for the configuration file under Windows has been changed from USERPROFILE%\.blankaspect\dateCalculator to %APPDATA%\blankaspect\dateCalculator, where %USERPROFILE% and %APPDATA% are system environment variables. (The default directory for the configuration file under Linux/UNIX is unchanged.) If you are updating DateCalculator and you want to keep your old configuration, you should move the old configuration file to the new directory.
- There is now an installer that can be used to install the contents of the executable distribution to user-specified directories. The installer will replace any existing file that has the same name as an installed file except for a configuration file, whose properties will be preserved if they conflict with the properties of the new file.
New in Date Calculator 2.2 (Jun 17, 2013)
- Bug fixes:
- A bug that could cause the values of some configuration properties to be saved incorrectly has been fixed. (Previously, characters such as "&" that correspond to predefined entities in XML were escaped twice in the value attribute of properties when a configuration file was saved.)
New in Date Calculator 2.0 (Apr 6, 2013)
- Bug Fixes:
- When a file is transferred to the application by dragging and dropping, an icon is displayed under the mouse cursor to indicate the the kind of transfer. The icon now correctly shows a Copy operation instead of a Move operation.
- Other changes:
- A keyboard focus indicator in the form of a dashed border has been provided for drop-down lists because the old mechanism (highlighting the selected item) didn't work on some platforms.
- All the text in a text field is automatically selected when the field acquires keyboard focus. This applies regardless of whether the focus is transferred by mouse or by keyboard.
