Release Document

  • This should be the documentation for all features available in the released downloadable. This includes new features, old features and updates done to them. This way we could iteratively form the final user docs.

How to use the branch

Update your working copy of the repository

  • If you have the trunk project imported in Eclipse, change your workspace to a new one (for example "Release")
  • Import as a "Maven project" from branches/release04-pre-alpha-5
  • All your changes from now on will affect only the release branch
  • We should prepare a good sample book.

Comments on fixes

  • 1 I backed out a change I made the other night for selection rectangle and moved the change into PageLogic. This was the riskiest of changes. I added helper methods on AuthorPageWorkArea to scale points. I added methods to type classes to help with accessing their data, and scaling. I also added preliminary code for size() on a halo menu, to call computeSize(), but even though the new size is computed, the halo buttons are not scaled, and I am leery of making any deeper of a change today. So the button will now be positioned properly, but it remains the same size (and HUGE when scaled at 10%). However, there is another bug with dragging the button when the page is scaled, and I added it to the list.
