What's New in UniPlot 3.6.0
===========================

This page describes the changes made to UniPlot 3.6.0 since version 3.5.2.

New Features
------------

* New functions to edit SQLite databases (see :ref:`sqlite_open`). SQLite is a
  public domain SQL database embedded into UniPlot. More information about SQLite
  can be found under http://www.sqlite.org.

* The :ref:`DialogBox` function has been extended by a new
  "Auto-complete combo box".

  The Auto-complete combo box box makes it easy to select an item if the list
  contains a big number of items. To search for an item, type the name. The list
  box will display all items that match the text typed. If there  is no match you
  cannot leave the combo box. This is indicated by a message beep.

* :ref:`NC_Edit`: The global NC attributes will now be displayed in the data
  grid.

Bug Fixes
---------

The following bugs have been fixed:

* The environment variable ``PATHEXT`` has been corrupted from the UniPlot setup
  program under certain Windows NT 4.0 versions.

  To fix this problem open the control panel and set the system variable
  ``PATHEXT`` to ``".COM;.EXE;.CMD;.BAT;.ICE"``.

* The :ref:`printf` function had an error::

     ssVal = "123456789-123456789-123456789-";
     printf("\n%s", ssVal);
     printf("\n%20.10s", ssVal);
     printf("\n%s\n", ssVal);

  The second :ref:`printf` call changed the parameter *ssVal*. This error has
  been fixed.

* Formula-Interpreter: In UniPlot 3.5.2 formulas could only be added to the
  active NC file through the Formula dialog box. Formulas could not be updated
  with the F9 hot key. This error has been fixed.

* xBase Import Filter: In the xBase (dBase IV) filter a bug has been fixed. Under
  UniPlot 3.5.2 converted files contained only missing values.
