RELEASE NOTES for GeoGebra 2.7 http://www.geogebra.at *** * GeoGebra 2.7.1.0 (01.06.2006) *** * French language files updated * Bug fixed: missing space in "x y" part of conic equation * Bug fixed: latex forumla disappears after reset in applet * Bug fixed: save breakpoint state for images in construction protocol * Bug fixed: keep construction step when canceling properties dialog *** * GeoGebra 2.7.0.1 (29.05.2006) *** * Croatian language files updated *** * GeoGebra 2.7.0.0 (18.05.2006) *** *** New features * Move Mode: direct moving of dependent objects with free parents * Texts: - multiline texts introduced - changeable font, size, style, decimal places - antialiasing of texts and formulas * Options: coordinate styles: A=(x,y) or A(x|y) coordinates can always be entered in both styles * Options: new point style "circle" * Options: new point capturing mode "on grid" * Short-key: press Escape to get into move mode * Zooming: press Ctrl and use your mouse wheel to zoom in or out *** New Applet parameter to customize toolbar You may customize the toolbar in an GeoGebra Applet by using a string value for the new parameter "customToolBar". An example for such a toolbar-string is "0 , 1 2 | 3 4 5 || 7 8 9" where the int values are mode numbers, "," adds a separator within a menu, "|" starts a new menu and "||" adds a separator in the toolbar before starting a new menu. (see http://www.geogebra.at/source/program/doc/geogebra_modes.html) *** New JavaScript methods String [] getAllObjectNames() Returns an array with all object names in the construction. String getObjectType(objName) Returns the type of the given object as a string (like "point", "line", "circle", etc.). boolean exists(objName) Returns whether an object with the given name exists in the construction. boolean isDefined(objName) Returns whether the given object's value is valid at the moment. void setMode(int mode) Sets the mouse mode (i.e. tool) for the graphics window. (see http://www.geogebra.at/source/program/doc/geogebra_modes.html) *** Command line options for GeoGebra application introduced Usage: java -jar geogebra.jar [OPTION] [FILE] Starts GeoGebra with the specified OPTIONs and opens the given FILE. --language=ISO_CODE set language using locale code, e.g. en, de_AT --showAlgebraWindow=BOOLEAN show/hide algebra window --showAlgebraInput=BOOLEAN show/hide algebra input field --showAxes=BOOLEAN show/hide coordinate axes --showGrid=BOOLEAN show/hide coordinate grid *** Bugs / Improvements * Improvement: Mode "Circle with center and radius" radius number does not create new variable anymore * Improvement: g(x) = Derivative[x^2] is now possible too besides the existing syntax g = Derivative[x^2] * Bug fixed: long indices in object names * Bug fixed: circular definition in mode "Rotate object around point" * Bug fixed: command Polynomial[] * Bug fixed: hyperbola equation (x-h)^2/a^2 - (y-k)^2/b^2 = 1 * Bug fixed: filling of definite integral in eps-export * Bug fixed: updating of polygon area on change of decimal places * Bug fixed: selecting conic sections with mouse problem with large coefficients * Bug fixed: Locus[] command problem with unlabeled first parameter * Bug fixed: save file from applet-window * Bug fixed: filename extension in save dialog (like test.ggb.html) * Bug fixed: reset polygon mode on "File", "New" * Bug fixed: workaround for Java2D bug for objects with huge screen coords
