Updates & Planned Features
Planned and Requested Features
-
​>>> BUG: In Hex Count Mode, the enable print safe zone checkbox does not update the hex-grid canvas with a viewable safe zone area.
-
ADD a background layer to be able to import a SVG or PNG to help draw.
>>>> This feature might not get done for a while. I spent 5 hours today trying to get it to work. While I found a workaround, the hex sides were getting cut off. -
ADD ability to color code each hex? Color in each hex, or remove the hex (full hex is transaprent) clicking inside the canvas.
>>> This feature is somewhat tied to the above feature... so if I cannot get it to work it might not happen in this App. Perhaps I will save it for the larger full featured program. -
SPI styled "squeezed hex" toggle feature.
>>> I was asked to include this yet no information was provided as to what this squeeze means or how much do the hexes get squeezed. I will keep this one on the backburner.
Release Updates Notes:​
V.1.0.7 - Added 2 additional counter overlays (5/8th and 9/16th sizes - 0.625 and 0.5625 respectively).
V.1.0.6 - Fixed the label for ASL boards to correctly read 8x21.9375".
V.1.0.5 - Added ability to select text stroke color, width and opacity. This gives you greater control on how to show your coordinates on a map, being able to avoid getting the text buries in woods, or other terrains, etc.
V.1.0.4 - Moved the Counter Overlay Preview Control Box higher up on the left panel to avoid having to scroll up/down to view counter changes: also changed where the Counter Overlay displays away from edge due to not showing if viewing a Geomorphic hexgrid.
V.1.0.3 - Added a feature to show a chit counter preview overlayed on the hexgrid (one counter at top left corner of grid). This will allow you to visualize the overall size of the counter to hex size ratio. There are 3 counter types included "Clipped Square", "Square" and "Round" with 3 sizes available... standard 1/2", 3/4" and 1 inch counters.
V.1.0.2 - Fixed muliple logic errors: ASL preset correct coordinates restored and hardcoded the original Avalon Hill Hex size (22mm hex side length), all other hex generation is now correctly measured Hexes side to side (aka "across flats" or AF), and removed the additional right side scrollbar that was used in testing since Browser takes care of scrollbar.
V.1.0.1 - Added a user requested feature to allow exporting hexes and coordinates as 2 files with one click - check box.
V.1.0.0 - Initial Release
