Plot Digitizer Changelog

What's new in Plot Digitizer 2.6.6a

Jun 16, 2014
  • A MacOS X only release the changes the message that GateKeeper shows when the user runs this program for the first time from a warning that the application was damaged to a warning that the application is unsigned. This help the user find the correct solution (changing the security settings).

New in Plot Digitizer 2.6.6 (Apr 29, 2014)

  • Fixed a threading issue that could cause the program to randomly freeze up on some systems.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.6.5 (Apr 22, 2014)

  • Introduced a French localization of the program.
  • Improved internationalization support throughout the program.
  • Fixed a bug that would cause the program to calculate the incorrect polygon area in many cases.
  • Program now requires Java 1.6 or later.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.6.4 (Feb 11, 2014)

  • Another attempt at fixing an illusive bug where the open dialog will sometimes fail on Linux systems.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.6.3 (Feb 11, 2014)

  • The output CSV file format has been changed back to the pre 2.6.0 format and now (once again) always writes out numbers in the US Locale (preventing commas from being output that indicate the ones place in some locales).
  • The values written out to the CSV file and displayed in the window of digitized values now use a format that shows more precision for both very large and very small numbers.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented exporting a calibration for more than one plot per session.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented editing of values in the table of digitized values under some circumstances.
  • Fixed display and editing bugs related to the use of logarithmic axis scales.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.6.2 (Jan 25, 2013)

  • Fixed a bug that prevented the file open dialog from working properly on all platforms.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.5.1 (Feb 29, 2012)

  • Fixed a bug that prevented opening of files when all windows were closed on MacOS X. Also updated code to Java 1.5 standard.
  • Corrected errors with numbers being rounded off when they should not have been.
  • Corrected the on-screen X,Y display number formatting to be more general.
  • Fixed a bug where the on-screen X,Y display was not displaying logarithmic data correctly.
  • The bitmap image is now converted to black & white before being output to autotrace. This greatly improves the reliability of autotrace.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.5.0 (Jun 7, 2010)

  • The autotrace program no longer ships with Plot Digitizer and must now be installed separately. Most users didn't use it and it was a pain to maintain autotrace in the distribution for the few people who used it. If Plot Digitizer can not find autotrace, the semi-auto button is disabled.
  • Eliminated the use of the installer on Windows and Linux. It was fragile and the primary source of problems for users. The Windows platform now ships as a native Windows executable and the Linux version ships as a simple double-clickable JAR file (which will actually work on ALL platforms).
  • Modified to use an ant based build system.
  • Modified code-base to make use of features found in Java 1.5 and to generally clean it up.
  • Picked up latest versions of underlying libraries.

New in Plot Digitizer 2.4.1 (Mar 23, 2009)

  • Fixed a bug with computing polygon areas
