Fix: Empty rows in Sets database when hyperlinks were used

This occurred when a filter was applied on the sets list, for example a selection in the family tree. When there was a hyperlink let’s say on row 50 in the sets list (for example in Manufacturer column), then switching to another filter with only 10 results caused that 50 rows were still displayed. The last 40 rows were empty and caused errors when clicked.

Fix: Handle long string limits in Excel global variables

Prevented errors caused by long text in global variable definitions; long content is now supported seamlessly.

Fix: Prevent cell editing when click is not on the active cell

Cell editing is now prevented when clicking outside the active cell(e.g. shapes, outlines, or empty areas). This avoids unintentionally entering edit mode and improves the overall user experience.

Fix: Strange editing behavior for cells in split sheets

This problem occurred only for cells that were to the left of worksheet split. When the user started editing such cells with double-clicking, his changes were not visible until he switched to another cell. This happened, for example, when editing mnemonics in WBS or Minutes fields manager. The issue was introduced in QDV 7.25.1192.

New: Custom_Articles DLL extended

The CustomizeArticles() method of the Custom_Articles.DLL has been extended to expose the IEstimate object that you can access using Qdv.User.Api. The EstimateContext object (which exposed the global variables) is no longer passed to the method because it can be easily accessed using IEstimate.CurrentVersion.GlobalVariables.

The method also exposed the connection to the article database (System.Data.Common.DbConnection) so you can bring changes to the database when you drop articles to an estimate or when you update articles in an estimate.
