spatix v022.007 (2022-07-20, techsupport till 2023-09-01)
New feature: Parallel release of Spatix built with the latest MS Visual Studio 2022 and with updated dependency libraries to the latest supported and compatible versions
Qt 5.15.4
GDAL 3.5.0 (supports even more vector formats)
Proj 9.0.0
ERDAS ECW 5.5.0, etc...
new Spatix distributive package still includes MSVC2013 crt120 libraries by now so that to preserve old Terra-apps compatibility
New feature: Support for CRS (Coordinate Reference Systems) transformations in Spatix while working with WMS layers and vector import/export via GDAL library
SPX file now has its own settings for CRS being used — configured via "Edit › CAD File Settings › CRS"
CRS definition: several CRS definition formats are supported — see tooltip over "Edit › CAD File Settings › CRS › CRS:" field
CRS definition: WKT (Well Known Text) v2 format is supported. WKT v3 is supported in the new MS Visual Studio 2022 build of Spatix by the newer GDAL/Proj dependency libraries
WMS raster tiles would be automatically wrapped (re-projected) into SPX's CAD file CRS on the fly
"[ ] Transform to model CRS" option for the Import/Export IxApp tools. If chosen, would transform geometry being imported into CRS of SPX file. If not — source coordinates would be used verbatim to create Spatix elements
New feature: New tool Export To File — allows export of SPX vectors into various vector formats via GDAL library
Supports attached User Attributes to be exported (availability depends on output format)
Supports reprojection into target CRS
New feature: Place Raster tool is no longer experimental (no need to start Spatix with the special command line option to activate it)
New feature: Add keyboard navigation into Spatix startup window: arrows to choose file, ENTER to open it, ESCAPE to close window
New feature: Text Tools toolsettings window text styles enabled status now depends on the chosen font. If non-truetype font is chosen, 'bold' and 'italic' options are disabled
New feature: More spaccels to alter Text styles options:
New feature: Scale Element tool does not reset the command after accepting the stretch any longer. Allows to stretch further with the same settings
New feature: Scale Element tool, added possibility to enter scales manually in the stretch mode
New feature: Construct Big Element tool, Make copy option is made accessible
New feature: Choose Element tool now supports grid lock when moving selected elements by drag
New feature: Measure Tools and Element Info tool made enabled in Spatix read-only mode (when there is no activation or R/O file is opened)
New feature: Find and Replace text tool: If text is replaced to empty string, relevant element is deleted from design file
New feature: View Pan by keyboard arrow-keys X,Y-step is now configurable. See "Edit › Preferences › Views"
New feature: Documentation for administrators about Spatix network activities was included into distributive — see Spatix_SecurityGuide.pdf
New feature: Change Text Attributes tool which allows to alter text styles of a selection of text elements
New feature: Show measurements in Element Info command, if any are attached to the element
New feature: WMS IxApp improvements
WMS layers are now stored in SPX files as new type of element: ELM_HDR_WMSLAYER
usual Layers Manager can be used to control their visibility
new parameters for WMS layer definition in the WMS.ini: maxcachesize, axisswap, minx, miny, maxx, maxy
WMS layers created in previous version of Spatix would not be visible — need to be re-created
better icons for WMS IxApp tools
Map Freeze command that allows to freeze the current state of the map tiles in the design file
New feature: Render textured polygons in case appropriate user-linkages are found on elements (experimental)
use --feature-enabletexpgons command line option to activate
DGNv8 texturing/materials info for elements is partially recognized
more details available by request
New feature:GDAL_DATA environment variable (if set) would supersede all other means for GDAL data folder place specifications (like wms.ini or \gdal-data folder nearby Spatix EXE module)
New feature:PROJ_LIB environment variable recognized in new 2022 build of Spatix would supersede all other means for PROJ data folder place specifications (like \proj-data folder nearby Spatix EXE module)

Fix: View rotation sub-toolbar may have become inaccessible in case camera view rotation was last active choice and then camera view was cancelled
Fix: Possible crash when opening Find and Replace tool
Fix: Spatix would build a raster pyramid cache in %temp% directory for raster elements displayed in views if their size is greater than 1 megapixel (1000x1000px)
Fix: Remove Spatix startup warnings which popped up in the log window and induced questions from users
Fix: Space char of GOST fonts were rendered as visible dot
Fix: Measure Coords Delta Command of AdvVecTools IxApp pivot point and cloud point terms were mixed up
Fix: Some visual artifacts could appear under main cursor on some devices
Fix: Latest active Snap Point is being reset (if there were one) upon start of new Spatix command. Otherwise snap point made in previous command could affect the new one
Fix: Tab-order was corrected in some of GUI windows
Fix: Performance improvements of new View window open operation
Fix: Trim to Element tool behavior when snapping to the element's center was fixed
Fix: Snapped-to element would now become the first candidate for the further Modify command
Fix: Extend Segment tool when extending element by fixed negative length in some cases had incorrect behavior
Fix: Set of drawn element types allowed to be located by Modify Tools were not possible to override from within IxApp -based CAD Command implementations
Fix:ViewCommand started via CFace API (not by QAction associated with a toolbar) was not properly cancelled by StateCmdStop()
Fix: Inconsistent Spatix behavior in read-only mode: can manage layers, can save views to CAD, but cannot use Element Information and Measure tools
Fix: IxApp subtoolbars could appear incorrect when opening them from Application menu (fixed by new way to form toolbar settings name for subtoolbars)
Fix: Improved errors reporting on SPX file save operations in case there is no free space available or media is read-only
Fix: Improved errors reporting in case OpenGL resources are not enough to create View window (as a result of "window becomes white" feedback report)
Fix: Many possible reasons of Spatix crash registered in crashdumps were eliminated
Crash in ElmLinearProcessVisiblePieces() in case of rectangular selection over isometric view of pasila.spx
Crash on close of ViewParamsPresetsDialog when no document is open (from crash-reports)
Crash on exit due to unload of DLLs having font.setFamily(QStringLiteral("Courier New")) in UI
Crash on "[v] make copy" click in Mirror tool
Crash on reference of unloaded library data in SPATIX_DETECT_MEMORY_LEAKS_ON mode
several NPE-s, and more...

Fix: dx= spaccel to pick up the last Tentative point (if currently active) as a reference
Fix: dx= and xy= spaccels to cancel currently active Tentative point (if any), so that simulated datapoint would not go into tentative position
Fix: sequential execution of spaccels was broken
Fix: crash on Spatix startup in case Spatix Welcome window is set into [v] doNotShowAgain mode
API changes
New feature:DrawRasterStereo() CFace function which draws 2 rasters onto a stereo view
New feature: New SpatixReadOnlyCommand class. Derived commands stay enabled in Spatix read-only mode (when there is no activation or R/O file is opened). Some fixes into SActionManager and SpatixToolbar for that
New feature:ExpStrEncoder — a new tool to encode expiration-related messages into #define- messages
New feature: Introduced SnapAwareLocationEnumerator which extends logic of processing of snapped elements. Snapped element (if exists) would be the first returned by the SnapAwareLocationEnumerator
Location CFace API and SpatixCommand descenders now use SnapAwareLocationEnumerator
Refactor: Hide private static member of CFaceRenderExtension from public CFace API
Refactor: Use of raster images in GLTexturizer was optimized for less memory consumption
Refactor: All access to SpatixApp::instance()->activeDocument() to be done via SCadDocument::ActiveDocument() and with not-NULL checks of result value
Refactor: SpatixSDK switched to use dump_syms_1900.exe to generate *.SYM-files. It works faster
Refactor: Many changes to CMake build system for Spatix due to MSVC-2022 support and dependency libraries update
Fix: Spatix now calls hooks set by DocSetFuncOnEldModified() for every IxApp that set one
Fix: Reading R,G,B color components in corect order in ColorReadTableFromFile()
Fix:EldMetricsAtPoint() was fixed for arc and ellipse elements when given point coincides with element's origin
Fix:EldDistanceAtPoint() calculation of projection point was fixed
Fix: Switch back to Win32 API's implementation of OsFileXXX() API (see COMMONS_USE_QT_FILE_API def), since Qt's implementation does not correctly handle boundary cases (e.g. write to full disk, write to read-only disk, etc.)
Fix: Disable separate especial handling of not-yet-modified SPX file SaveAs command case (since implementation based Qt's file API does not correctly handle boundary cases)
Fix: Several fixes/improvements in Debug Tools
GUIItemsInfoDlg to show target widget by flashing red frame in correct X,Y position in case widget is a free-floating window
Debug Tools Element Info Command and Main Tools Element Info commands to properly and seamlessly handle highlight of selected elements and toolsettins dialog manipulation
Blinking rect which highlights target QWidgets in Debug Tools GUIItemsInfoDlg made to be transparent
Fix:SpatixCommand destructor to be called in the context of the relevant IxApp
Fix: On Spatix close IxApps will be deleted in reverse order than they were created
Fix: Remove Spatix tests dependency on BOOST libraries
