Bug Fixes

BUG FIXED: Back doesn't seem to change the values back, only goes to the previous screen

Not a bug: This is like Forward & Backward on an Internet Browser.

BUG FIXED: Clicking LOPTS scrolls through values, but leaves it on the lowest value, not the one it was on before

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Now leaves the value where it started after it is completed.

BUG FIXED: SNAG Command writes 0 byte files

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: The SNAG command was not robust. User probably typed a bogus image type name. VP now enforces correct type names.

BUG FIXED: SNAG Command appends the extension twice when the extension is specified

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Filetype extension can be optionally supplied in the next beta.

BUG FIXED: Env pages - Click to update at the right, doesn't show the graph, but pressing the sync button works

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Got rid of "Click to update", hitting "Sync" is just as easy.

BUG FIXED: LOPTS and LOPTS Inc don't work on "CurrentDisk" field on the Disk Page

Cannot reproduce: Worked for me. Who knows? Anyway, the LOPTS for this field will be in the next beta metafile.

BUG FIXED: Sample Page - Mode and Thresh both appear not as fields

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Oddball fields. I added these manually. These fields will be in the next beta metafile.

BUG FIXED: MAST 2 Page doesn't work

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: It does now.

BUG FIXED: GM Page doesn't work

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: It does now.

BUG FIXED: EQ Bypass - Soft Buttons 2-4 are mislabelled as Q - They should be EQ 1-4

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: They are correct now.

BUG FIXED: In Large View Mode - Program Mode doesn't update

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Added a message that indicates Large view mode not supported. It is all graphics plane stuff. Performance would suck!

BUG FIXED: Scrolling on Midi port selection lists in Config dialog doesn't work

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Scrolling works now.

BUG FIXED: I broke type-in for numbers with decimal point; you had to leave out the decimal point for it to work

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: Works now with decimal point.

BUG FIXED: Can't LOPTS Program/Setup field in QAccess edit

Fixed in 0.2.2 Beta: For some reason this field has no "Type-in" equivalent. No big deal. It is only a toggle anyway. In the next version I handle 2 state LOPTS in a groovy new way which "fixes" this issue.
