What's new in Graph 12.16.1
Apr 22, 2024
- This version is faster and more secure. That is accomplished by pre-caching hashes and other deterministic values into the signed binaries. That means that the user interface is 2-4 times faster and common operations are much more immune to injection attempts or system changes. Being fast and secure translates into robust and dependable data visualization.
- The off-board control panels (selectors) have also been optimized for much better placement on the screen and performance in general.
- All state duplication is now much faster and more reliable.
- Transient tooltips are also many times faster. Menus are also many times faster.
- Tables are also much faster. A faster user interface (UI) translates into faster data visualization (DV) because DV and UI computations compete for resources.
- Reliable and secure means more immune to system changes and unaccounted for injection such as during operating system updating, hacking or changes in system API. Thousands of code points were also replaced with more secure implementations and the theoretically unsecured (and slower) code API is now removed.
New in Graph 12.15.8 (Mar 19, 2024)
- This version speeds up launching, fixes bugs and removes API associated with security concerns and replaces those calls with compile-time deterministic implementations.
New in Graph 12.15.6 (Mar 18, 2024)
- This is a maintenance release to synch with other derivatives and to synch the codebase for regression analysis.
New in Graph 12.15.5 (Mar 18, 2024)
- Some user interface components are now faster. The build process is about 25% faster and the embedded script engine (for animations, ui bindings, formula generation, etc.) is now faster which means Graph is faster than ever. A faster build process allows for quicker turn around time to address issues iteratively and also respond to customer requests in a more timely way.
New in Graph 12.15.4 (Mar 18, 2024)
- Full screen mode did not work under all conditions because of the off-board control panels (selectors). This has been fixed by transitioning such controls between off-board for normal use and on-board for full screen use. Those controls include the table cell editor and graph point-wise data entry.
- If the Graph window was forward and the user logged out while choosing to reopen windows while logging back in then upon login the app may initially crash and need to be relaunched. This has been fixed. This bug did not occur on all macOS versions and is due to the lack of user events upon auto launch.
- Critical bugs are very important to fix and if you encounter a critical bug, or non-critical bug, then please report it to [email protected].
New in Graph 12.15.3 (Mar 18, 2024)
- The Bar and Column Chart (task) assumed a categorical independent variable until there are more than twenty independent values and no custom axis labels. When this limit was exceeded then the autoscaler would not be invoked until the task view was refreshed. This behavior has been fixed so that the transition between categorical and continuous produces the desired result.
- The user interface and also data visualization has been optimized further and is faster than ever. Each iteration incorporates incremental code improvements. Since Graph directly uses the native graphics API in macOS it can directly take advantage of GPU improvements with Apple Silicon thus making code improvements the only means of optimization.
New in Graph 12.15.2 (Oct 31, 2023)
- This version is compiled against the Sonoma SDK and toolchain to incorporate compiler and SDK improvements.
- Sonoma API changes have been accounted for while still maintaining backwards compatibility to El Capitan.
- The user interface and also data visualization has been optimized further and is faster than ever.
New in Graph 12.9.5 (Oct 23, 2022)
