Visual Patch 3.5 Update (v3.5.0.0) Released
There is a new service release (v3.5.0.0) available today (March 2nd) for Visual Patch 3 containing bug fixes and new features. You can get the latest version by selecting Help > Check for Update from within the product, or by downloading the full install through your customer portal.
This release contains a variety of bug fixes and new features:
Feature: One of your most asked for features is finally here. You now have the freedom to create your own custom dialogs from scratch! Start off with an empty wizard dialog and then drop whatever controls you require onto it. Resize them, reposition them, call script code and much more. It's fully featured and totally visual. When one of the built-in dialogs doesn't get you where you want to go, the new visual dialog editor is sure to fit the bill. To use this exciting new feature, look for the "Custom" screen type in the screen gallery.
Feature: Added two new actions for the new Group Box control on custom screens, DlgGroupBox.GetProperties and DlgGroupBox.SetProperties.
Feature: Added a new action called "System.GetOSProductInfo" that gets the product type for the operating system (only supported on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008).
Feature: Added several more folders to the Shell.GetFolder action including: SHF_MYMUSIC, SHF_MYMUSIC_COMMON, SHF_MYPICTURES, SHF_MYPICTURES_COMMON, SHF_MYVIDEOS, SHF_MYVIDEOS_COMMON, SHF_COMMON_DOCUMENTS.
Feature: Added Windows 7 to the System.GetOSName action.
Feature: Made it so that invalid certificates can be ignored through the use of an undocumented variable called _IgnoreInvalidCertificate.
Fix: Fixed a bug where File.GetSize would return the incorrect file size for files larger then 4.7GB.
Fix: Fixed a bug where the Shell.Execute action was setting an incorrect error code.
Fix: Fixed a bug were an incorrect error message would be shown at design-time if "Load from file" was selected for a web page on the Scrolling Text screen and the local file did not exist.
Fix: Fixed the language mapping for the Croatian language (a problem with secondary IDs) and added Bosnian to the language map.
Fix: Fixed a bug where progress bars were not redrawing properly on non-themed operating systems on Windows Vista or greater.
Fix: Fixed a bug where the read-only style for edit fields was not properly being set or removed when the control was enabled at runtime.
Fix: Fixed a bug where the design environment would crash when working with screens in certain situations.
Fix: Made it so that the HTTP Error Dialog will be displayed (if allowed) if an invalide certificate is encountered.
Fix: Fixed a bug where blank default text for a ComboBox control would not initially set the session variable attached to it.
