Fix: Embedded resources were not correctly compiled in some macros
If the user edits a macro in Visual Studio, he can add an embedded resource to it. For example, an icon can be added to a form. A Form1.rex file is created in such a case. If the form had explicitly specified the namespace in its source code, the compiled macro failed to run in QDV.
New: Tools4XL
When a message is shown in a dialog box (Error, Information, Question, …) and no title is provided, then ‘QDV TOOLS’ is written in the title. With this, making a print screen of the message helps us to find the origin of it.
New: New shortcut Open + O for Open
There is Ctrl + N for New, Ctrl + S for Save. Now also missing Ctrl + O for Open has been added to open an estimate.
New: Converter command line arguments
Converter supports new command line arguments:
\SourceFile= - full path to source Excel file to open in Converter
\DatabaseType= - one of Articles, Estimate or Sets value
\Template= - full path to qdv/qdb/grp template; optional
\SettingsFile= - full path to settings .qdvconvert file to apply; optional
Example: "QDV7 Converter.exe" \SourceFile="C:\Converter\Sample_BOQ.xlsx" \DatabaseType="Estimate" \Template="C:\Estimates\DemoEstimate.qdv" \SettingsFile="C:\Converter\Sample_BOQ.qdvconvert"
