−
*In Version Oct22,15 digital print is now the default printing method and a valid option for all graphics unless the image is over 46"x46" or is on a bare or grained finish. If you choose silkscreening when digital print is a valid option, Designer will recommend using digital print instead. (If you ignore the recommendation, Designer will not recommend it again for that design file.)
 
−
*In Version Oct 27,15, Designer prevents you from applying digital print to bare metal or a grained finish, and warns you when you apply silkscreening to bare metal.<br><br>

===Add/Remove Programs===
+
:[[https://www.protocasedesigner.com/RELEASE/release/protocaseDesigner-OSX.dmg '''Mac OSX 10.8+ in DMG format''']]<br>
−
With Version 4.4.9-Sep24,15, Designer is no longer listed in the Windows Add/Remove Programs list as "Protaces."

−
===Files created in Version 3.0===
+
:[[https://www.protocasedesigner.com/RELEASE/release/protocaseDesigner-linux-amd64.tar.gz '''Linux amd64''']]<br>
−
Some files designed in Protocase Designer Version 3.0, when imported into the current version, flipped some cutouts horizontally on some faces. As of Version 4.4.9-Sep10,15, these files are imported properly.<br><br>
 
  
−
==Fixes released in August 2015==
 
−
===User-placed handles===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug27,15 fixes problems in which user-placed handles did not load properly, and enclosure designs with such handles could not be
 
−
updated.
 
−
===Ordering===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug21,15 fixes an issue in which enclosures could not be ordered correctly.
 
−
===Loading files===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug21,15 fixes an issue in which a file could not be loaded.
 
−
===PEMs===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug21,15 fixes several issues with PEMs:
 
−
*When you added a PEM, only the hole was displayed, instead of the PEM itself, and if you moved a PEM, it disappeared entirely. When you saved and reloaded the file, PEMs were displayed properly.
 
−
*PEMs were displayed as "assembly: pem" rather than "PEM: partnumber" and were displayed under the Part rather than the Face.
 
−
===Trim mode===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug21,15 fixes an issue in which trimming an object and then clicking '''Accept and Close''' could cause the trimmed object to disappear. With this release, if you leave a valid outline for the trim, no issues occur. Known limitation: If you leave an invalid outline (in which at least one line segment is not attached at both ends), then after you click '''Accept and Close''' you receive a warning that Non-closed cutouts exist, and you are given three options: '''Continue trimming''', '''Undo''', and '''Accept as is'''. Currently, these options do not operate correctly. ('''Continue trimming''' and '''Accept as is''' cause the object to disappear; '''Undo''' causes all interior lines in the two objects to appear trimmed in the 3D View, but are still two separate overlaid objects in the Face Editor.)
 
−
===Part Tree Viewer===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug17,15 fixes an issue in which, on some computers, the Part Tree did not display in the topmost window, and was obscured by other open windows on the screen.
 
−
===PEMs===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug17,15 fixes an issue in which PEMs in rotated groups could have an incorrect rotation, causing the PEM to be drawn in the wrong location in the 3D view.
 
−
===Enclosure templates===
 
−
In previous releases, the '''OK''' button at the bottom of the template dialog was not visible on laptop and other small monitors. With Version 4.4.9 -Aug17,15, the button is now visible on any monitor.
 
−
===Quoting and opening files===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Aug17,15 fixes problems in recent beta versions in which some files would not quote and others would not open.<br><br>
 
  
−
==Fixes released in July 2015==
+
These releases are maintained for older versions of Mac OSX<br>
−
===Rackmount faceplates===

:[[http://protocasedesigner.com/RELEASE/protocaseDesigner-OSX-4.5.3-Jun09,16.tar '''Mac OSX 10.6 or 10.7 in TAR format''']]<br>
−
===Quotes===
 
−
In previous releases, Designer did not produce a quote for a design with 300 cutouts on a face. This was fixed in Version 4.4.9-Jul30,15.
 
−
===Accept and Close command===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul28,15 fixes an issue in which, when Designer was run on some versions of Windows, the '''Accept and Close''' command did not close the editor window.
 
−
===Brackets===
 
−
In a previous beta release, if you placed a bracket, then saved and reloaded the file, the footprint of the bracket was not displayed in the Face Editor. This has been fixed as of Version 4.4.9-Jul23,15.
 
−
===Text objects===
 
−
Prior to version 4.4.9-Jul23,15 the bounding box on text was slightly off. It is now exact, so you can use the Measure tool to align the center of the text box with another object, and you can use the Alignment tools to align the text with other objects.
 
−
===Replacing screws and PEMs===
 
−
As of Version 4.4.9-Jul21,15, you can see information on screws, and optionally replace a screw with a PEM  (or replace a PEM with another PEM), as follows. (Note that you cannot replace a screw with another screw.)
 
−
#In the Face Editor, click '''Edit''', then select the screw.  
 
−
#:'''Note''': If the screw is grouped, you must first ungroup it.  
 
−
#In the Properties panel, notice the new '''Replace...''' button, which includes the part name of the screw. (Only part of the part name is visible on the button; to read the entire name, hover over the button.)
 
−
#:[[file:SCREW_INFO.jpg]]
 
−
#To replace the screw with a PEM (or a PEM with another PEM), click the button.<br>
 
−
''Alternate method'': Right-click a screw and choose '''Properties''' to review and/or replace the screw with a PEM. The Properties window also lets you edit the '''Origin(X)''', '''Origin(Y)''', '''Rotation''', and the side of the face that the screw sticks up out of.
 
  
−
===Origin in templates===
+
==Fixes released in Version 5.8==
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul23,15 fixes an issue in which the origin was incorrect in the side panel of the U-Shape enclosure with Cover Mounts template.  
+
===Fixes released in Oct 2021===
−
===Brackets===
+
* Drawer Slides added to Rackmount and Rear Bend Rackmount Templates
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul21,15 fixes an issue in which brackets placed into a different design did not have any thickness until you saved and reloaded the file.
+
* Fix performance issues with patterns
−
===Measurements not displayed===
 
−
In a previous Beta release, the Measure tool did not display the measurements, and sometimes did not move an object that it was snapped to. These are fixed in Version 4.4.9-Jul16. In addition, the Measure tool's snap points now include the center and tangent points of arcs.
 
−
===Grouping objects===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul16 fixes an issue in which objects inside of an enclosure flipped 180 degrees horizontally when grouped.
 
−
===Linux .DEB Packages===
 
−
As of the Version 4.4.9-Jul16 release, the .DEB packages no longer require a permissions change for proper installation.
 
−
===Origin in brackets===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul13 fixes an issue in which the origin of a bracket (displayed as red arrows in the 3D View) did not line up properly with the bracket corner if the bracket height was less than 1.5".
 
−
===Masking===
 
−
In Version 4.4.9-Jul07, masking is properly quoted, and also fixes the issue that arose in an earlier version in which the following warning was not displayed when masking was applied to cold rolled steel.<br>
 
−
[[file:masking_warning.png‎]]
 
  
−
===Notes===
+
==Fixes released in Version 5.7==
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul07 fixes an issue in which the Notes Viewer let you edit the Name, Part Number, Manufacturer, and Description fields. These fields, which are for internal use only, are automatically populated with the object specifications. With this release, they can no longer be edited.
+
===Fixes released in Sept 2021===
−
===Selecting objects===
+
* New 5-Sided Enclosure With Hinge Template

===Language settings===
 
−
Version 4.4.9-Jul07 fixes an issue in which users with language settings that use a comma instead of a decimal (Romania, Spain, Germany, etc.) had difficulties entering data in some of the fields in the Properties panel.
 
−
===Folders referenced when using Save As command===
 
−
When you load a file, Designer remembers the folder that you load it from and uses it as the default folder when you use the Save command. As of Version 4.4.9-Jul07, that folder is also used as the default for the Save As command.
 
−
===Tapped holes===
 
−
In Version 4.4.9-Jul07, you are no longer given an option to change the hole size for tapped holes. If the hole size is non-standard in an existing design created in a previous version, then when you load the file, the hole will be resized automatically.
