Here you find all information and details about the changes from Calamus SL2003 to the current release, Calamus SL2006. We ship Calamus SL2006 since December 20, 2005. A download version is offered, too!
Calamus SL2006 bases on the successful SL2003 and comes with new features, tiny changes and many important bugfixes.
Important: The native enhancements in Calamus SL2006 are not available for pure TOS users. If you see the prefix Win or MMX in a described feature, then this feature is available in Calamus SL2006 WinPack or with Calamus SL2006 under MagiC Mac X in Mac OS X (10.3 or higher) only.
New: [320] OverwriteWarning:
This new parameter (on/off) corresponds with the new checkbox in the dialog Miscellaneous settings (Options menu). If set on, a warning is given to the user before a file is going to be overwritten (exception: File menu: Save).
New: [286] TImpFontNormal:
This entry stores the number of the font, which should be assigned to the text style Normal on text import.
New: [286] TImpFontItalic:
This entry stores the number of the font, which should be assigned to the text style Italic on text import.
New: [286] TImpFontBold:
This entry stores the number of the font, which should be assigned to the text style Bold on text import.
New: [286] TImpFontBoldIt:
This entry stores the number of the font, which should be assigned to the text style Bold Italic on text import.
Please keep in mind, that the previously mentioned four entries do not realize a real font assignment, but simply assign the currently loaded fonts to a text style (using their number, starting at 0). If no font is loaded when you recall this dialog, the assignments are cleared again. If less fonts are loaded than have been assigned before, the first loaded font is assigned to the now missed font places.
New: [286] TImpCursiveFonts:
This entry stores the switch state of Italic: Font / Style in the import parameter dialog Font selection for 'Italic' and 'Bold'.
#Fonts
New: Filenames:
Loaded fonts are now listed one per row like the external modules. This allows easier reading and editing of the Calamus.SET file.
#FrameEditParameters
New: [13] FrTextFlowX2Off / FrTextFlowY2Off:
These two new entries store the auto text flow offsets for right and bottom borders of frames.
New: It is much easier now to use multiple versions of Calamus at the same time under Windows as well as start Calamus by double-clicking on a CDK file.
New: [316] DThe registry key HOMEPATH is no longer required. You can start multiple versions of Calamus at once now and even start a desired Calamus by double-clicking on a CDK which will be loaded automatically then.
New: The fixed window size 640x480 is no longer offered.
