DeleD 1.72 Released!

This version fixes all currently known Vista compatibility issues. We now consider DeleD to be fully Vista compatible!

New functionality
- The individual viewports now remember the camera position of you change to a different view (for example, from 3D perspective to the UV editor and back).
- You can now move primitives and vertices to a given position in 3D space.
- The Face mode Move command now works in the 3D perspective view as well.
- DeleD now saves viewport information to the INI file.

Fixed Windows Vista Issues
- The help function no longer triggers an access violation.
- The application closes down properly.
- The creation rectangle, used when drag-creating a pyramid, grid, rectangle or cube primitive, no longer has drawing issues.
- The drag-selection rectangle ("rubberband") no longer has drawing issues.

Fixed Misc Issues
- Light objects no longer discolour when the grid is turned off.
- The PolyLine primitive won't create duplicate vertices anymore if you accidentally press the mousebutton on the same position.
- A few more checks on user input in the Object Inspector have been implemented.

Changed functionality
- Snap functions have been moved from the Edit menu to the Geometry Commands. Easier to locate and a more logical spot for them to be in.

This version is also interesting for non-Vista users because we added a few new goodies as well and also fixed a few bugs. Check the release notes! Smile

Nice, it irked my that you couldn't do stuff in the 3D window Razz

Edit: Hmm...is there an option to turn that on or something? Vertices/primitives aren't moving in the 3D window Razz

Any thoughts why 1.72 with Vista is still giving me "Unable to write to C:\Program Files\DeleD PRO\DeleD.ini" and then ot closing? I looked in the directory to be sure there was not a read only ini file there and there is no DeleD.ini.

Found the problem, but not the fix. McAfee on access virus scan interprets the DeleD ini write attempt as a potentially harmful virus. So far I see no way to tell it to allow DeleD to write other than defeating the virus scan. This does not happen with any other software that writes an ini file when terminating.
Something is amiss?

Program Files is not a writable location for Vista. Instead, Vista creates a "shadow" of that directory structure for applications to write to. This causes almost no compatibility problems with almost all software. Except when it does.
DeleD is, in general, not a good Windows directory citizen. The "maps" and "textures" folders probably should live in the user directory, in a "DeleD" folder. Settings should go there, too, whereas plugins should still install in the Program Files directory.

Quick fix is to give yourself ownership of the DeleD folder. Than you can do whatever in it.
