Revision 2.8.5Original Release Date: July 26, 2017
|
Contents |
NEW - REORGANIZED DATA HANDLING MENU
|
We've reorganized the Data Handling menu by splitting it into three separate tab menus because we have plans for more features in this menu in the future. |
NEW: IMPORT ONLY MASTER DATA FROM VTP FILES
NEW: SEARCH AND MOVE IN PATH MANAGER
|
VTube now lets you search for path names in the Path Manager. |
BUILD 1 - REMOVED "Move Arm from Cradle" MESSAGE
|
This message appeared when loading VTube-LASER projects on older arms. This message is no longer displayed because it is not needed with then newer FARO drivers. |
BUILD 1 - CTRL-S SAVES THE PROJECT THEN BRINGS LASER WINDOW TO THE FRONT
|
This fixes an issue where the Ctrl-S would bring the STEP mode window to the foreground when saving VTube-LASER projects. Now the VTube-LASER window moves back to the top after the save. |
