Version 8.16.000.0000
Updated the new search routines (search by Title, Artist, etc.) and replace routines to properly support all international character set special characters. Also updated all other areas of Powergold to properly support them.
When in the Music Library there was an issue using SHIFT multiselect after some operations (like a refresh, jump, highlight by criteria, etc.). In some cases the items subsequently SHIFT selected might be more or less than what the user anticipated if the user had not clicked on a selection with the mouse or keyboard following the operation. This is due to a problem with a Windows component. Powergold now compensates for this problem so it is no longer an issue.
Updated some of the import routines to support new formats from certain vendors sending periodic song imports via file.
All 5 history grids in the Schedule History (H) screen have been updated and now support a new option to automatically center the current play (date/hour) from the scheduler in the center of the history grid. This is very useful as it allows a user to immediately see the plays before and after the current play in the scheduler. This behavior is optional (defaults to on) and the setting is sticky (per user). The is also a button to manually locate and display the current play as well. The show blank days option is now sticky (per user) and a new options menu has been added.
In the scheduler, when you select a new position several items update to reflect the correct information for the current position (violations, history, total counts, etc.). If you used the HOME or END keys on your keyboard to jump to the beginning or end of a log this information update call was not being processed. This has been fixed.
Updated the CBSI-ITC traffic import to read and store the category field in the traffic file. Note: Existing traffic will not have this information as it was imported prior to this data being read by Powergold.
Several settings in the Scheduler have been updated so that they are stored per user instead of globally for all users. These settings will be reset to the defaults for all users initially. But now each user can set them however they like without affecting other users. These settings include:
1. The 3 settings that control how the total time for an hour is calculated and displayed on the bottom of the scheduler (in the status bar).
2. The setting that controls what position will be selected after a flip occurs.
3. The settings that store the sort column and the sort direction for the violation window.
4. The violation jump options. These settings control what positions the Prev Violation and Next Violation buttons select.
The Digital Audio Player Setup screen had some captions modified.
The ENDO DAD - Streamline interface procedures to synchronize the songs in DAD with Powergold have been updated to support additional fields. These new fields allow the user to see the DAD Group and also allow the user to access the audio files via the Powergold Digital Audio Player feature (so songs can be played from within Powergold).
All of the new search/replace windows (introduced in version 8.15.000.0000) have been updated so that their operator logic choice is sticky (per user). That way if a user prefers the "contains" operator (for example) instead of the default "begins with" operator this setting will be remembered. Some windows share the same setting so that when it is set in one the setting is presented in all windows using the same setting.
1. The Music Library Jump (J) feature has its own setting (per user).
2. The Music Library Search By Title, Search By Artist Display Text, and Search By Artist Separation List all share the same setting (per user).
3. The Scheduler Replace By Title, Replace By Artist Display Text, Replace By Artist Separation List, and Replace By Composer all share the same setting (per user).
The Artist Separation List and Property selection controls have been modified to make them easier to read.
