All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
- check for new versioned files and show warning when loading map (#353)
- Trizbort now will detect changes to loaded map from another application and ask to reload the map (#365)
- Added export for Quest (Thanks to @ThePix for this) (#392)
- Added option in AppSettings to show the full file path in the main window caption.
- Can now set a default room shape for a map in Map Settings (#93)
- Can add a link to reference another room from a room (done through room properties). Ctrl-Click on the room with the reference will go to the room being referenced (#370)
- fixed naming consistency between context menu and main menu and room shape names (#356)
- opening zoom is a bit more accurate and better handles margins (#357)
- Fixed issue where Trizbort wasn't saving the last loaded project if that map was loaded from most recent maps menu (#364)
- Minor adjustment on alignment of in/out text on rounded and octagonal rooms. (#378)
- fixed error with room property dialog and rooms shapes. (#394, #388)
- copy of room now copies the subtitle.
- Refactored the copy / paste giving some code optimizations and fixing some copy bugs where some properties were not getting copied. (#379, TRIZ-145, TRIZ-152, TRIZ-47)
- Application Settings has been refactored. App Settings are now stored in an appsettings.json file in the application folder. The legacy settings.xml stored in the user folder will be read in if it exists and there is no appsettings.json file. This simplified the code and allows for easier management as we add new options. Map settings still stored in the map file.
- moved the revisions.txt to a more standard changelog.md file.
- added scrollbars to the Map Settings -> Description and History inputs. (#390, #391)
- App settings are now saved on an affirmative close of the app settings dialog.
1.5.9.9 - 2017-07-02
- Beginnings of a room validation with graphical indicator of rooms that don't pass validation. (#333)
- Put menu items (shortcut keys) in place for set start room (Ctrl-F5) and set end room (Shift-F5). (#335)
- Added some stats for doors / connections (#343)
- Added the end room into stats (#339)
- Added a micro-zoom (Ctrl-MouseWheelUp/Down) (#341)
- The Room properties dialog parent was not getting set properly which could cause it to get lost on alt-tab making trizbort appear to be locked up. (#332)
- Adjusted tab order and layout slightly to get more commonly used items to the top of the tab order. (#334)
1.5.9.8 - 2017-04-14
- I6 support for exporting Doors...thanks to Andrew Schultz and Hugo Labrande
- if the default hand drawn option was not checked in the appsettings, then you could never make a room with hand drawn edges. This should be corrected.
- Accented characters where not being exported properly to Hugo, I6 and TADS (#330 & #329 - Thanks to Hugo Labrande for the report).
- Tooltip issue when opening a new map when one was already loaded (#327)
1.5.9.7 - 2017-02-15
- Issue fixed with older maps that had blank regions and exporting to I7 which would result in a mostly empty I7 file.
- Issue with the EXITS command with last release that was breaking automap in general. EXITS rolled back until a proper fix is in place.
1.5.9.6 - 2017-01-07
- Can now specify an end room. (#171)
- Added new option in Automapper, to assume two-way directions (on by default). (#296)
- Automap will now detect when a room is being connected in the same direction as another room. The user will be prompted to keep one or other or both. (#300)
- Add a FIND, currently only on Rooms (name, subtitle, objects and description). Found elements are selected. (#57)
- F3 / Shift-F3 will cycle through found matches
- Fixed issue with room properties window opening in the upper left corner of the screen (#309)
- Issue in Automapper when restarting, it would sometimes get confused and not display any rooms. (#195)

1.5.9.5 - 2016-08-05
-
"tb dotted" in transcript now forces next connection to be dotted.
-
"tb exit [direction]" in transcript will add a connection stub in that direction and "tb noexit [direction]" will remove a connection stub.
-
refactored the command line handling. Commands are now:
- -a, --loadlastproject
- -m, --automap --> give it a text file transcript. ex)
trizbort --automap zork1.txt - -q, --quicksave --> quicksave the file to the given filename, useful in conjunction with other commands like --automap
- -s, --smartsave --> silently do smartsave based on current smartsave settings.
- -x, --exit --> close trizbort, again useful in conjunction with other arguments. ex)
trizbort --automap zork1.txt --quicksave zork1.trizbort --exit
-
added command line parameters for exporting maps to source files --inform7, --inform6, --alan, --hugo, --tads, --zil
-
Added region support to Hugo export.
-
Added Ctrl-K to Force Darkness on selected rooms; Added Ctrl-Shift-K to force lighted on rooms.
-
Added support for doors. It can be setup in the connection properties. Export to I7 only at this point.
-
Add descriptions to connections. Used only for doors at the moment.
-
Allow for fine control of object text positioning. Tooltips will now show on items with out a title. This will help with being able to put different attributes or descriptions on items (connections, rooms).
-
Added option to app settings to show / not-show tooltips on objects.
- Fix wording on context menu for hand-drawn room.
- Refactored font code name.
- changed labels in app settings font settings.
1.5.9.4 - 2016-04-09
We made a lot of improvements to exporting to your favorite IF language and cleaning up our own code. We are also trying to add features that make sense to simplify building of maps while still giving you plenty of shortcuts and power tools. We are also in the process of improving the export to different languages. We've added ALAN support and improved support for I7, I6, TADS and ZIL. As always if you find ways to improve, have suggestions or find bugs, please let us know or submit an issue on github. Documentation is a little outdated so apologies on that. Hopefully we'll be updating that soon.
Future enhancements I hope to make: Continue to improve and expand language export, improve the object language to handle more errors and give more flexibility.
- beginning of object definition language in the objects list. Still in beta (so use at own risk as things may change, but feedback is appreciated) and really focused on I7 at the moment. We will continue to improve, fix and tweak.
- Command line option to start automapping of file. -m transcriptfile [trizbort map name]
- Saves app window dimensions on close.
- Also #192, Now we can adjust margins on exported images. We allow for default margins that can be adjusted and document specific margins.
- Annotations can be now be saved to PDFs (the annotation will be the room description)
- The short cut key '0' will select the starting room.
- Ctrl-B backs up your current project file.
- TADS/Adv3Lite export now supports regions.
- \ (backslash) on room will attempt to reorganize the connections. Be careful with this as it tries to be smart about room location in relevence to each other. It can make mistakes so we are looking at ways to improve and make trizbort a bit smarter.
- '[' and ']' as well as Ctrl-[ and Ctrl-] will move the selected connector around to available ports on the connected rooms.
- Automap improvements: Mark start room.
- Option to auto-load the last saved map when opening trizbort.
- More command line options added (just beginning this, -? for current ones)
- Ctrl-D deletes all connectors from selected room.
- I6 export now implements regions as classes.
- ALAN Export - (Beta)
- Added popup for language definition in the description area.
- Hand-drawn is now a room property. Global setting for new rooms, can be changed on a room level.
- Wording change on the duplicate room dialog in automapper.
- File dialog for choosing transcript in automapper now filters by *.txt and *.log -- Any other extensions in common use for transcripts?
- Disallow room names to be just numbers as it creates bad I7 code.
- Like #172, Blank room names are not allowed as it will create bad exported code.
- When running a test command in the I7 IDE, command numbers in brackets are created at the front of each prompt line, like '>[7] n', this confused the automapper.
- Trying to improve the export to code with some special characters from non-english languages. (Further improvement suggestions welcome)
- Fixed some areas that were causing Trizbort to think the map was "dirty" and needed saved when it really wasn't.
1.5.9.3 - 2015-09-19
