What's New in UniPlot 5.6.1
===========================

This page describes the changes made to UniPlot 5.6.1 since version 5.6.0.

Bug Fixes
---------

The following bugs have been fixed:

* (ID1431): If a file was selected using the :ref:`fileopen` dialog box and
  the file was not an IPW file, the file was loaded into an editor. 
  A "file cannot be opened" message box now appears.

* (ID1469): :ref:`XYIsTYDataset`: For datasets with 0 data points, the function
  always returned  the value TRUE (1) even for XY-datasets.

* (ID1562): :ref:`fspline`: The function returned the value 0 if the y-coordinates
  were constant (y = constant). (The bug was fixed in 5.6.0, but wasn't added to 
  the bug list).

* (ID1574): ASAM-ODS (RPC): If a submatrix contained 0 records, the function
  to merge the submatrices failed.

* (ID1575): If a page was removed from a saved UniPlot document (:file:`*.ipw`),
  the modified flag was not set.

* (ID1577): Sometimes datasets and their maps were not removed
  from the IPW file when the document was closed.

* (ID1584): Excel-Import: The sheet name was not added to the origin attribute
  in the netCDF file. Without the sheet name, users had difficulties with the
  data exchange function. Example: :file:`d:\test.xls [sheet1]`.

* (ID1601): Diagram: Drawing objects were not moved correctly with the diagram
  when the arrow keys were held down.

* (ID1613): :ref:`ExcelRead`: The function did not return Unicode strings.
  For formulas with a string result, the function returned an empty string.
  (Example: ``=Sheet!A1``). This bug occurred as well in the :ref:`fileimport-data`
  command when an Excel file was selected.

* (ID1614): Datasource could not be edited. For example, the datasources
  to calculate a difference map could not be renamed when the page name was
  changed. The dialog box can be accessed via the dataset context menu.
  Right click on a dataset and select **Edit Function Parameters...**.
  See :ref:`dataedit-function-list`.

* (ID1634): TCM-Import-filter: The TCM-Filter addin library was not compiled
  correctly. If the addin was loaded, the bug caused problems with the
  :ref:`fileimport-data` command.

* (ID1641): NC-Browser: Add DataFiles: This function had a bug which occurred
  if  two files contained string channels and a different number of channels
  A waring was added to the event viewer:
  "Grid Add Data", "Channels have different data types, Name xxx".

* (ID1642): If more than one MDF file was open simultaneously, a memory
  access violation occurred. This bug occurred only in UniPlot 5.6.0 if a netCDF
  file was open in the data browser and a second file was imported using the
  :ref:`fileimport-data` command.

* (ID1644): UTX-Filter: The channel name was missing in the
  NC attribute ``long_name``, if the norm name addin was used and the scheme name
  did not exist in the norm name catalog.

* (ID1645): If a isoline label was removed from a XYZ dataset
  using the :ref:`toolbardata`, the isoline was plotted over the isoline labels.
  This bug has been fixed.
