Versions |
Changes |
---|---|
5.2 | Stable Version |
You can now use $...$ in parts of lines, even several times. | |
Improved the English in the context documentation. | |
Tutorials in English now. | |
Korean translation of the GUI. | |
Improved accuracy of intersections with conic sections. | |
5.1 | Stable Version |
Intersections with circles can now be set to switch each time the intersection becomes invalid. | |
The movement with the move tool can be restricted until some intersection becomes invalid. This can be set the default behavior for applets. | |
5.0 | Stable Version |
Simplified the web pages to gain usability. New translation of the English documentation and examples. | |
Automatic track objects can be drawn as discrete points no. The color and thickness of the points is taken from the tracked point at each position. | |
4.9 | Stable Version |
Due to a probable error in Java intersections could have been computed very slowly. | |
Macro comments now appear in the macro selection dialog. The comments can be changed when renaming the macros. Macros are now sorted when the construction is saved. | |
Polished up elliptical and spherical geometries. | |
4.8 | Stable Version |
Tracks can now be generated by sliders of expressions. Moreover, points on objects are now automatically moved on these objects. | |
4.7 | Stable Version |
It is now possible to zoom with the mouse wheel, and to drag with the right mouse button. | |
Points can be set on conic sections, and conic sections can intersect with other objects. | |
Improved the performance of intersections. | |
4.6 | Beta Version |
By default larger and better icons. | |
Improved display of points and lines. | |
Improved speed of tracks. | |
4.5 | Stable Version |
Fixed the update of texts. | |
Speed up objects lookup. | |
4.4 | Stable Version |
Parameter points with self references, that are to be used in macros, must be selected with the shift key. Otherwise, the parameter point becomes a plain point in the macro. | |
Settings of sizes in one dialog. | |
Default setting for restricted or unrestricted intersections. | |
4.3 | Stable Version |
Improved LaTeX output with the option, to let LaTeX draw the strings. | |
4.2 | Stable Version |
PNG can now create bb files for LaTeX. | |
Many improvements in the documentation. | |
Expressions can be set and shown with sliders. | |
When the grid is on, objects can snap with left mouse drag instead of right mouse drag. | |
4.1 | Stable Version. |
Permanent object list on the left of the construction display. | |
Improved automatic track objects. | |
Improved computation of intersections with automatic tracks. | |
New function "simulate". | |
Language can now be changed with a menu entry. Options menu split in two menus. | |
Macros can be organized in folders. | |
Changes and improvements for macros that use other parameters than points. | |
Improved self reference of objects. | |
4.0 | Stable Version. |
