Disabled Database File in Concept Mode (v8.2 - Bug 2541)
Concept mode crashes on design or export of member if you try to access a member from a database file that has been disabled in Database Editor. Previous to version 8, the program would design for an inactive database as long as it found the database file on the computer, regardless of whether it was disabled. If it was not found it would issue a warning on both the screen and in the output. The program now shows a warning message informing you that materials are no longer available when opening file, running design, or exporting to beam/column mode, and halts design or export. The message instructs you to re-activate the materials in database editor or change the materials in the groups dialog. The message shows the list of groups that are missing their materials and shows the materials names and file names that are missing.
Design for Disabled Species in Concept Mode (v8.2 - Bug 2542)
In Concept mode, if designing for a material that hat has a species that had been turned off in Database Editor occurring in the species list before the selected species, a crash occurred on design. This has been corrected.
Steel Database in Concept Mode (v8.2 - Bug 2543)
If changes were made using database editor so that the steel database was no longer last in the list of beam database files, then the materials input for other materials in Concept mode become out-of-synch such that steel information appeared for one of the other materials and the following materials showed the species and grade for other materials than their own. This problem could be rectified by disabling the steel database in Database Editor, saving, and then re-enabling it. However, this is no longer necessary as the problem has been corrected.
