6.0 is Ready to Go

Linda Demmers — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 00:58:45 +0000

After a final round of testing, Libris Design 6.0 is ready for release. This new version has many features which long time users of Libris Design have asked for. (1) The log in process has been streamlined. (2) Users can now rename Divisions and Spaces, and these will resort under the new name; the old name no longer appears. (3) On the Space Screen, the View All screen is now a working screen, so users can modify quantities and inventory items on this simple “a-to-z” summary sheet. (4) Users have the ability to rename a subcategory and when moving a collection to a different space on the subcategory screen, only those spaces present in the model will appear on the pick list! (5) The collection volume screen has been modified and the “percentage in circulation” can now be changed on the pink screen. (6) Reports now feature a collections summary in the grey text box “Collections.” (7) New inventory items have been added and pricing has been updated on many others. Some modifications have been made to the Expert Models. (8) Final reports, with each chapter in a separate named file, can be sent with a single click to a folder. (9) A long persisting glitch with the Table of Contents has been fixed. (10) A recent glitch with the last line of text falling off the page in some reports has been fixed. (11) Users have the ability to add different text to the footer of each report. (12) Costs on budget screen have been updated, but are still changeable by the user. (13) Help documentation and context sensitive help has been rewritten. (14) Fonts have been modified; more screen real estate is in use — it’s easier to read!

Got Password?

Several users have requested help “finding” their password when they attempted to open a back up copy of the database. These files can’t be opened; they contain only the user’s files. A back up file must be imported into a clean version of Libris Design. This is a version which contains no user models. Further instructions are available on the Libris CD “Back up and Recovery” and User Help on the Libris Design website.
