This is the first "stable" version that uses the QT 3.0.5 and OpenDWG 2.008 libraries. Biggest new feature from 0.96 is the reporting (located under the file menu).
We have also removed the ability to save as an XPM format file and replaced it with a save to PNG format file. PNG files are very compressed where XPM are just the opposite.
There is also a reporting feature now available. The reporting can be set to open report on all drawing files in a directory using command line arguments.
Version 2.0 of our command line utility program which converts dwg files to dxf files has been released. Changes include the ability to now specify the dxf file version to be saved, and it is also no longer necessary to supply an output file name. There are now also some help files bundled with the package.
LX-Viewer version 0.96 is now available. This version fixes many bugs (particularly with metric plotting), improves the useability of several features, and adds a full layer dialog dialog control. As usual there is a pre-compiled version plus the source code version.
The newest version of the Linux Drawing Viewer has been posted [17 Mar 02]. This version now has the ability to plot drawings to scale to a Postscript or to file and also has the ability to toggle various layer states (on/off, freeze/thaw, etc).
As for the 0.92 release there are 2 versions available, one source and one compiled.
