Bug Fixes

The following bugs has been fixed:

• (ID993): NC files: The ignore case option could only be set for a single nc file. The function has been modified so that the flag can be set globally:

nc_set_option(ncid, "nocase", 1);

// For all NC files (ncid = -1)
nc_set_option(-1, "nocase", 1);

• (ID998): Online Help: The function help index was not listed in the correct sort order.
• (ID1000): An error object could not be added to a UniScript object.

o = [.]; o.e = error_create("test", 1, "message");

• (ID1016): Sometimes the wait cursor did not change to an arrow cursor.
• (ID1027): If a string matrix contained NULL characters the string was truncated at the first 0-Byte character:

Example: sm = ["a\x0b", ""]; sm[1;1] != "a\x0b";.

• (ID1028): The print output of a real matrix into the command window could not be canceled with the ESC key, example: print rand(10000,1).
• (ID1032): The DialogBox function had multiple errors (UniPlot 4.2.4 to 4.2.6).
• (ID1037): 3D Dataset: If the option “Fit to Gradient” for the isoline labels was set, the gradient was not recalculated if the diagram size or scaling changed.
