Sill Plate Deactivated after Database Editor File Operation (v8.11 - Bug 2457)

If you activated, deactivated or added a database file in Database Editor the program deactivated all sill plate materials that are used for bearing design in Sizer. The next time Sizer is run, a message warning you that you do not have sill plate materials appears on start up, and sill plate does not appear as a choice of bearing materials. This has been corrected.

If you have experienced this problem already, then in order to restore your sill plate materials, it is necessary during installation of this service release to indicate that you do not wish to retain your database customisations from the previous installation, by deselecting the Material Database – Standard selection in the Installation Options box that appears during the installation.

If you do not wish to lose your database customisations, contact WoodWorks Technical support for instructions on how to reactivate the sill plate materials without losing other database changes.
