- WHAT'S NEW IN CONVERTER 1.5
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Several improvements have been made to Converter in version 1.5
- Some of them include:
-
- Improvements to the user interface. In version 1.0, all
- of the conversion windows were started from one Measures menu.
- In version 1.5, the conversion windows are divided into categories
- including: length, volume, weight, area and miscellaneous. The
- individual conversion windows are started from these menu categories.
-
- Biblical Measures. Conversion windows for Biblical lengths,
- Biblical Dry Measures, Biblical Liquid Measures and Biblical weights
- have been added to version 1.5. The windows allow you to convert ancient
- measurements to their modern U.S. and metric equivalents.
-
- Improved online help. An expanded online help file that uses
- the Windows help engine is available in version 1.5. Help can be accessed
- by pressing the F1 key at any time in Converter or by selecting Contents
- under the help menu in the main window.
-
- Several minor bugs that were present in version 1.0 have been fixed in
- version 1.5.
-
- Tab orders in some conversion windows were confused. This was
- frustrating to those using keyboards rather than mice. All tab orders
- are fixed in version 1.5.
-
- The Cut, Copy, and Paste choices under the Edit menu in the
- conversion windows are grayed out when those choices cannot be made. All
- choices appeared to be available at all times in version 1.0.
-
- There was a bug in version 1.0 that caused an error message and
- shut down the program when the Edit menu was selected immediately after
- the Clear button had been clicked. That bug has been fixed.
