2.4.0 - 2023-11-26
------------------

This is a major feature and bugfix release.

*NOTE*: The handling of tsv/btf files (REFERENCE) files has changed and old p2 session
files won't load correctly with this release, anylonger. Please edit the p2 session files
manually!

Reference files (tsv/btf) are now encoded with .tsv? instead of identifying individual columns.
And the columns extracted from these files are referenced via column header name instead of index. This
makes it much more convenient to work with files whose header changes in time, and keeps p2 files much smaller.
Just create a new session file and inspect it in a text editor to see how the new encoding works.

Further, the conversion functions are back, including convenient conversion between TSV and BTF format. This
improves handling of large (>80Mb) TSV files, as they are read and updated much much quicker in BTF format.

Two model models have been added: IBP Wood Degradation Model and IBP Corrosion Model.

Lastly, the curve tracker feature has been added, which greatly helps in inspecting many overlaying line series.
This happens often in variation studies, or in building energy simulation models with many zones.

Fixes and additions (see ticket tracker/feature request page for details):

- #230 TSV files with changing header (column order) are not updated correctly
- #265 Absturz wenn tool tip gezeigt wird
- #282 Crash when "moving extractor up" in upper most mapper

2.3.0 - 2023-01-25
------------------

A feature and bugfix release, at lot of them centered around improving usage
for analysis of SIM-VICUS and MASTERSIM results and other simulation tools
aside from DELPHIN.

Most notably PostProc now supports files in Binary Table Format (see manual
for a specification) which accelerates reading of large time series files
significantly. Also, custom units (i.e. for software with own/special
unit definitions) can now be defined in the preferences.

Lastly, a lot of annoying bugs have been fixed, like the time stamp issue
that caused an hour time shift sometimes.

Have fun with the new release and let us know if you encounter any bugs!

Fixes and additions:

- #251 Fix saving/restoring of time cut lock indexes
- #257 Time stamp change when saving/loading project (x-axis formatted as date/time)
- #258 Project skips first mapper on load
- #259 Update order problem when changing DateTimeZero while having autoscale off
- #268 Fix crash when updating session with tsv-file that only contains the header line
- #226 Improve error message from file reader plugins
- #239 Fix crash when reading PostProc sessions with manipulators
- #241 Add support for VariableSubstitutions.txt file
- #248 Support for session-specific/global quantity name substitution tables

- #272 Add preferences option to add custom units
- #273 Fix crash when applying chart format with time axis and no configured start time
- #274 Add support for custom unit lists (user-specific setting)
- #276 Fix slowdown/freeze in data manager when working with tsv files with many data sets

2.2.3 - 2021-02-19
------------------

This release contains fixes for quite a few annoying issues, like the missing additional
line series entries when adding new lines to a chart. Also, the TSV file import has been
improved a lot and made more robust. The entire auto-updating functionality has been
revisited and should work better now for different user/admin combinations on Windows.

Most importantly, though, the new PostProc manual is completed. While writing the manual,
some minor issues have been detected and fixed accordingly.

The new manual (so far only in German, english version is in work) is available here:

https://bauklimatik-dresden.de/postproc/help/de/index.html

or as printable version

https://bauklimatik-dresden.de/postproc/help/de/PostProc2_manual_de.pdf

Issues fixed:

- #192 Fixed: Aktualisierung der Linienauswahlbox nach dem Hinzufügen von Serien
- #218 Fixed: Update installer fails to delete update installer when run with admin account closed
- #222 Fixed: PostProc crashes when opening session file
- #228 Fixed: Crash: when updating a tsv-date series (line diagram) when tsv file reader throws read
errors/file missing/invalid data etc.
- #231 Fixed: Beim Einladen von Sitzungen mit DateTime Diagrammen ist das Startdatum um eine Stunde verrutscht
- #217 Fixed: Manipulators are not created when adding a series to existing diagram
- #219 Added: PostProc 2 check for typical text editor locations on windows
- #220 Fixed: Loading session doesn't switch to diagram mode correctly

- #142 Fixed: copying a chart to clip board and "transparent background" is off now indeed copies a
non-transparent image
- #232 Fixed: adding new series to line chart does not show up in "line options" dropdown list (duplicate of #192)
- #233 Added: show "$project" variable in the tool tip of title properties

2.2.2 - 2020-05-27
------------------

A major change compared to previous versions is the more strict error handling when reading session files.
Previously, faulty session files were read as much as possible, hereby skipping over invalid/malformed content.
This, however, could cause data loss since reading would just abort at first occurance of an error.
Now, any error encountered, that cannot be gracefully fixed, will give rise to an error message shown in a
message window. If you should see such an error message, simply open up the session file in a text editor and
fix/remove the offending content.

- #212 Fixed: Cannot load old projects in case of date axis with non-default zero point
- #197 Fixed: Creating a mapper by click on 'Show table' does not update east panel - button removed

2.2.1 - 2020-05-15

- #208 Added: Adding data sets from same tsv-file (i.e. reference format 2D data) to existing diagram is now possible,
also you can add data sets multiple times with offsets or shown with different line markers.
- #209 Added: Improve "Add to diagram" check - do not prevent adding if one of the data sets is invalid/unavailable

2.2.0 - 2020-04-07
------------------

- VTT Wood degradation model added
- Several bug fixes related to time/date output and UTC time spec handling (for date/time axis)

und (wieder) die Möglichkeit, Zeitpunkte in Diagrammen einzufrieren. Außerdem sind
testweise die ersten Isoplethendiagramme enthalten.

Kritische Fehlerbehebung:

Bei Zeit-Koordinate-Farbverlaufsdiagrammen stürzt das Programm häufig ab, wenn
man mit dem Mauscursor über den Rand des Diagramms fährt. Dieser Fehler ist behoben
und wenn man häufiger mit diesen Diagrammtypen arbeitet, sollte man auf jeden Fall
aktualisieren!
