A new Rounding property was added to IEstimateOptions interface. It returns the new IRoundingOptions interface that allows for reading and writing the Rounding options of an estimate.
The options ‘Show only default columns’ and ‘Show description in list’ are managed with global parameters. The default values are set according to this parameters.
The Minute Extra Data are not shown in the resources list but only in the chapters list. That means that one can dispatch the lines in different chapters if the Minute Extra Data (MEDx) column has a non-null value.
Before generating the first or the second phase, a warning is shown if the parameters have not been saved.
When loading articles references from an external workbook (xxx.base.xlsx file), the user can choose to get the algorithm and the values, but fix only the algorithm. This is especially useful if the algorithm will run against the quantity.
There is a trick to change the linked estimate. Just ‘Unlink’ the current one and the application will ask if you want to really unlink, or if you want to unlink and link to a new estimate. Doing so, you can change the underlying estimate easily.
In the algorithm definition, the ‘Quantity’ column was not recognized before saving and reopening the workbook. Fixed.
The application can solve the “FD” code (Final Difference) anomaly automatically by inserting a new line in the result sheet. The column where the value is inserted is the compensation column of the first formula of the first algorithm. The quantity is forced to 1. The description is picked from the settings and can be changed.
