1. Fixed: unnecessary SG.txt and
SGupdate.exe files in SilhouetteGlenbrook folder were not
being deleted after on-line updates. 2. Fixed: the ClassLanguage$ variable in the PSR export was some times not being acquired 3. Changed: In PSR exports, CPP had been changed to CAPP (aka CHEC) |
| Version 1.1.7 July 11, 2010 |

available 2. Added: RTF folders management (new, delete, rename folders and move files between folders) 3. Fixed: new students added to Grade exploratory classes no longer are missing the Day and Subject data in their files 4. Changed: Grade 8 Exploratories - when importing Grade 8 Exploratories grades and comments, check that the Subject name of importing file matches that of current HB student file, give warning and options to skip or overwrite. This conflict could occur if a new student, manually created is assigned the incorrect Day or Subject. 5. Fixed: New students added to Subject (SU) classes did not immediately receive Subject text. |
| Version 1.1.6 June 23, 2010 |
1. Fixed: the Assigned to Grade ___, September ____ was not printing |
| Version 1.1.5 June 18, 2010 |
1. Fixed: three typos on the front page of the report (working, learning and adaptations). |
| Version 1.1.4 June 15, 2010 |
1. Changed: chkPassive.Value properly
converted to Boolean for PassiveSpellChecker variable 2. Changed: When adding comments from a Comment Base, the edit box no longer clears when the user moves to a different topic or to a different comment base |
| Version 1.1.3 June 8, 2010 |
1. Fixed: If a comment in the comment base was a plural possessive and created on a word processor and then pasted into SilhouetteGlenbrook, the 'curly' apostrophe (Chr146), upon being imported into an RTF edit box, would be converted into RTF code that had an invisible following space that, in the Double Space Checker, with the 'real' space following plural possessive, would be misinterpreted as a double space to be changed into a single space. However, upon conversion, that single space would be the invisible part of the underlying RTF code and there would appear to be no 'real' space between the words. The fix is to convert all instances of Chr(146) to Chr(39) just before the point of import into the RTF edit box. |
| Version 1.1.2 June 8, 2010 |
1. Changed: When printing Subject or CHEC report summaries, the Final Grades are now also printed. |

printout. 2. Fixed: On Resource windows, clicking on View / Print could in some cases lead to loss of the most recently added text. |

1. Fixed: on some student report windows
there could be a fatal error if using the arrow buttons to
move to the next or previous student while displaying the
Term 1 tab 2. Added: Resource class folders - a new three-term format for resource teachers' use. Text in resource class student files will be inserted into the opening comments section when submitted and imported into Homebase reports. 3. Fixed: on the Homebase report window, the asterisk on the opening comment button is now working correctly 4. Added: in the Homebase print window added the option to print the text of comments (note - this does not include any of the non-comment text on the report) in 8, 9 or 10 point fontsize. The choice is remembered for future displays. The default is 9 point. The other choices could be made to avoid reports with, for example, only the signature lines on the final page. 5. Added: PSR exports: Grades 6 and 7 final grades may be printed and exported as a TurboSchool Orbiter file. Grade 8 final grades may be printed only (because TurboSchool Orbiter does not support import of grade 8 grades). 6. Fixed: In Comment Base topics, double spaces after period were being mis-identified. 7. Changed: check for date of attendance file is now done only when accessing HomeBase class folders 8. Added: When Importing Resource comments into the Opening Comments of a HomeBase student file, if there is existing text in the Opening Comments, the teacher is given the options to Overwrite, Append or Skip. 9. Changed: minor modifications to the Import Comments window |
