If the user requested a CheckAndRepaint operation and then requested to filter the level (from 1 to 8) above the task list, an error occurred.
When “Show Description in Tree” option was selected for the main WBS tree, the Item numbering was corrupted if the numbering from Home - Navigate – Numbering was applied. This also happened if auto-renumbering was turned on and a task or branch was pasted. The issue was introduced in QDV 7.25.1193 beta.
This happened if QDV was already open and its UI language was different from the OS language. For example, QDV was in French while the Windows language was English. Then the user double-clicked on an estimate file in file explorer. The estimate was opened in the existing QDV, and in many cases, the tabs and context menus were in wrong (English) language instead of the QDV (French) language.
The search functionality was integrated into Name Manager, Paste Name, and Write Variable forms. Refreshed the grid UI with zebra striping, custom borders, and auto-fit columns.
When the user tried to customize or insert Gantt tasks or groups in child estimates, an error could be displayed.
The Minutes view is now properly refreshed after merging tasks from Expanded or Condensed WBS. Previously, the view could display outdated data until manually refreshed. This has been fixed so all Minutes data is automatically reloaded after task merges.
The following new method was added to the API:
•IArticleDatabase.CreateEmptyCallingContext
It allows creating calling context in external clients such as InterfaceDll or Custom_Articles.dll. In several methods in Custom_Articles.dll, this is the only way to get QdvManager instance which is sometimes needed to get helper functionality for QDV environment, active directory, zipping, etc.
When WBS_Formula_For_Quantity special field is added in WBS, it produces values for Quantity field. If the user edits the formula, the quantity is automatically computed. But it didn’t work the opposite way, unlike in minutes. If the user edited the Quantity directly, the formula was not adjusted accordingly and the newly entered quantity was lost after Compute all was performed. Now the WBS_Formula_For_Quantity is automatically adjusted when Quantity in WBS is edited.
F12 and Ctrl+F12 shortcuts are now disabled when the Breakdown option is unchecked in the user profile permissions. The shortcut behavior is aligned with authorization rules.
1.The data type is changed to "Text", which is clearer than the old "Any". And now it's the same as in minutes.
2.The number format is set to text by default. It prevents, for example, from automatic conversion to date if entered value is 3.14 or 14/3 (which translates to March 14, depending on locale).
We now integrates with Sonepar France through PunchOut catalog browsing. Users can browse Sonepar's online catalog in their browser, select products, and automatically import them into QDV estimates via OCI (Open Catalog Interface) with complete product details, pricing, and descriptions, eliminating manual data entry and reducing errors.
