Operation of View Limits Setting (v8.2 - Bug 2536)

The following problems affecting the operation of the snap increment input in the View tab of the Settings have been corrected:

Input Units

The input form now shows the units being entered for the view limits, ft or m.

Conversion between Metric to Imperial

The conversion between metric and imperial units was inconsistent, sometimes converting between the unit systems and sometimes just displaying the same numeric value in the new unit system. This has been corrected and the program converts between unit systems at all times.

Saving Default

The saving of the view limits to the initialization file was inconsistent, sometimes allowing you to save the default for new files and sometimes not. This has been corrected

Factory Default

The default view limits for new installations of Sizer has been changed from 45 x 60 m to 15 x 20 m. The view limits were intended for imperial feet and were too large for metric units for typical structures.
