Release notes from Bev......
Hi,
PlanePlotter version 6.3.9.1 is now available for download following the link on the the web site.
http://www.planeplotter.com#download
---Usual boilerplate---
Updates are free to registered users.
You may need to exercise your browser Refresh function to force it to show you the new version of the PlanePlotter web page. If you post a message saying that the web site is still pointing to an earlier version, you pay a forfeit.
You can install the new version over the old one but you *must* close/exit PlanePlotter before installing the new one. Your settings will be preserved. If you post a message saying that the installer is unable to replace planeplotter.exe, it means that you did not close PP first and you pay a forfeit.
If you have a version-specific firewall (eg Zone Alarm), you may have to reassure it that the new version is permitted to access the Internet.
-----------
New in version 6.3.9.1
Users operating as SMUs can use the OLE/COM interface to check on the SMU operation.
A problem with sorting the signal strength column in View-Aircraft has been fixed.
The Find command has been extended. If the machine is online, and if the chosen aircraft is not found in the local data, it will be escalated to the server and data for that aircraft will be retrieved if available at the time.
PlanePlotter now takes care of heading reports expressed in Magnetic degrees. Some aircraft use magnetic headings when on the ground and PP now plots the aircraft symbols correctly in this case.
A problem whereby SMUs get stuck not perfoming their role, has been fixed.
Prospective users who have already exhausted their 21 day trial period can enjoy a further 21 days trial with this version.
The Options..Share..Setup dialog now has buttons for the secondary sharer setup for PlaneFinder and FlightRadar24 if you wish to send data to either of those systeems.
Thanks to all those users who have reported infelicities or have requested new features for this new release.
Regards
Bev
