  • Platforms now draw properly in the plan view of structures that do not have steps.

Build 3.0.73 July 29, 2009

• Connectors now ignore By Others in the Pipe Library. To remove a connector from the reports, set the Connector Type and Model to the blank entry.
• Miscellaneous Items and Pipe Fittings:
  • Added a new 'Pricing Description' column to the Miscellaneous Items/Pipe Fittings for Structure tables in order to cross reference the corresponding entry in the Pricing Screen.
  • When the Description does not match the Pricing Description, a status line is generated. This should prevent errors that result from improper changes to these entries.
  • Added a new 'In Library' column which contains 'Yes' for an entry that has a corresponding library and 'No' for one that's missing.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed pricing so that each Price List has the same Description. This eliminates the potential for different product descriptions from different price lists.

• Weir wall / baffle wall notches are now fully supported as an opening type. Just specify the top of the weir wall, MH Pro will show notches on both sides of every piece down to the floor.
• The minimum concrete around hole (MCAH) can now be ignored by the base calculations (that is, when MCAH is 6" and the floor is 5" MH Pro can now let the hole sit on the floor instead of 1" above the floor).
• Bug Fixes:
  • Rebar notes are now include in the rebar callouts.
  • Control-P now brings up the reports screen for MH Pro

• Most graphical and BOM reports now support selectable DisplayUnits to automatically show outputs in Metric or English. (The opening schedule, unfortunately, is still only in native units.)
• Warn when a hole is too big for the structure according to arbitrary limit for each SectionSize. Note that you must supply the arbitrary holesize limit for each SectionSize for this check to run.
• Added AboveLargePipes as a new reduction style. AboveLargePipes works from the same holesize limits as the hole too big warning above, so you must provide the arbitrary holesize limits for each chimney size for this reduction style to run.
• New options for pricing make it easier to mark each piece with an appropriate pricing schema WallOnly, SlabOnly, and SlabEaAndWall.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Reports no longer show multiple copies of the PDF export button.

• Bug Fixes:
  • The Use? column is reliably visible on the Pipe and Fabricated Steel screens without scrolling.
  • A Custom size opening on a structure will make the top piece of the structure match the Custom size on the Structure Design screen. An Any size opening on a structure will make the top piece of the structure match the size on the frame of the structure. (I hope that's clear. (Yes it is. Clear as mud.))

Build 2.1.59 July 1, 2008

• Bug Fixes:
  • Steps can now be placed in bases without regard for the benching even when the benching will cover the steps.

  • Drip Stones now properly calculate weight.

Build 2.1.55 June 2, 2008

• Added a Holes Below Floor override setting to the Structure Design Screen. This allows each structure to specify whether holes are allowed to extend below the floor slab of the structure. Hole Below Floor normally uses the value set for each precast base. This new setting allows Holes Below Floor to be changed on the fly when needed.
• The stack editor now treats the delete key as a Delete, and a double click as an Add Above.
• Bug Fixes:
  • The two-up landscape shop report now forms a larger gutter between the pieces on the right and left sides of each sheet.
  • Pipe ends now include more detail in the default Pricing and BOM entries.

Build 2.1.33 February 27, 2008

• The Match Base Key and Match Reducer Key fields now include Prefer Flat and Prefer Keyed options to help select the appropriate joint mating.
• The new Help file is now included in the build.
• Poured-In-Field bases are now marked "By Others" so they do not appear on BOM reports.
• Bathtub shaped structures are now supported in the Plan View.
• Migration import should now be much faster. You still have to wait for the job to load and update, but the migration is faster.
• Added Min Adj Rings and Max Adj Rings goodness criteria for AutoStacking.
• Hamilton Kent bought the IPS connector line so all of the IPS connectors are now renamed HK.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a bug in displaying available sections in the Mid 1 Reducer section.
  • Status messages for Invert Elevation and Angle are now properly ignored for pipe end structures.

Build 2.1.32 February 20, 2008

• Bug Fixes:
  • Added a check for stranded data in the Flow Tree Screen when adding a new structure.

Build 2.1.31 February 19, 2008

• Added a new Excel Pipe Summary Report.

Build 2.1.30 February 18, 2008

• Hole distances along the inside and outside of the structure can now be formatted to show fractional inches.
• Arrays of weep holes can be added to parts.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a bug where BOM lines were missing when parts were similar but different.
  • Fixed a resizing bug in FBESQL that could keep FBESQL from starting up.

Build 2.1.29 February 12, 2008

• Customer build.

Build 2.1.28 February 4, 2008

• Bug Fixes:
  • Pipe ends on zero diameter pipes now draw a zero size pipe end.

Build 2.1.27 February 1, 2008

• Bug Fixes:
  • A Floor Elevation opening can now drive the location of a Poured-In-Field base (instead of specifying the top of the PIF base relative to the outlet invert).
  • Chained wall dims now appropriately report 4.5 inch walls on 42 inch structures.
  • Eliminated a spurious Corner dimension that appeared when a throat opening hit the corner of the structure.
  • Changed the way that parallel dimensions draw in round structures so that parallel holes at the same angle will draw stepped parallel dimensions. This means that two sets of parallel holes at the same angle now draw properly.

Build 2.1.26 January 24, 2008

• Added a new 'Tight Merge' option to the Plan Collision Option field in the Plan View Screen. This new option allows the opening ID's on the plan view to pack very tightly before merging into a single callout. This can make Swiss cheese structures more readable, but it can also result in IDs that draw on top of each other, so use it with care.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Reduced MH Pro!'s use of "System Resources" to avoid generating a "System resource exceeded" error when updating large jobs (above 190 structures).
  • Fixed an 'Operation Canceled' error on the Contractor tab of the Job Data Screen.

Build 2.1.25 January 21, 2008

• Added Supplier to the Structure Design Screen. Now incidental items can be priced differently depending on the Supplier.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed the "From" column in the Pipe Detail report so that it displays data.
  • Fixed an error related to generating Pipe Fitting pricing when migrating Pipe Fittings.
  • Fixed a "Bad OpeningKey" error that occurred when associating the top and bottom openings of a drop set.

Build 2.1.24 January 15, 2008

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed an error in migrating trim pipe information where the migrated database was exported before it was later imported.

Build 2.1.23 January 14, 2008

• Cone weights are now automatically calculated. If you have given us actual cone weights, these will continue to be used. The calculated weights are often on the conservative side (heavy), so actual weights are still preferred over the calculated weights.

Build 2.1.22 January 10, 2008

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed an error in drawing holes in floors.

Build 2.1.21 January 9, 2008

• Pipe Ends now appear graphically on the site plan.
• MonoTops can now dimension openings to the bottom of the slab.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Connectors in Cast-In-Place bases are now displayed as "In CIP Base" in the opening schedule.

Build 2.1.20 December 17, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed bookmark problems associated with selection of Reference Structures for use in Job.

Build 2.1.19 December 13, 2007

• Added a new "Trim Pipe" field to the General Tab of the Structure Design Screen. This new field controls whether the Structure's pipe is trimmed to the wall of the structure. When Trim Pipe is set to "Yes", the pipe is trimmed at one or both ends provided the pipe end is attached to a round structure.
• Added logic to dimension parallel holes in a box with parallel centerline dimensions when the holes are defined as parallel, (not Face) and are perpendicular to the box face.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed angular dimension so that its in the correct position when Plan Angle Option in the Plan View is set to show distance from hour marks.

Build 2.1.18 December 7, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a duplicate entries in BOM problem when importing data from recent builds.
  • Part Weight is now formatted properly on the Order Summary reports.

Build 2.1.17 December 7, 2007

• Modified 'Specify Qty' for pipes and ends in the Pipe Fittings Screen to adjust the downstream quantity for the unchecked state.
• Added a new graphic option to generate chained wall and structure size dimensions in addition to the overall size dimension that currently generate only for extended bases.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed copy logic in the Pipe, Pipe Fittings, and Miscellaneous Items Screens.
  • Fixed a bug in synchronizing data for openings that would leave the graphic views showing old data until the opening was kicked with a large change. It now behaves properly.
  • The data migration screen now does a better job of determining what data the archive database can receive. This fixes an error where the archive process would try to copy data to tables that did not exist.
  • Adjusted formatting of Quantity on BOM reports for better vertical alignment.
  • Excel was not automatically starting for some users when generating Excel XML reports. Reworked the routines to more reliably find Excel.
  • Link-Seal connectors now calculate the recommended hole size.
  • Ad Hoc openings now ignore the pipe fittings associated with the structure when calculating the pipe length for the opening. This fixes a negative pipe quantity seen in the BOM for the structure.

Build 2.1.16 November 6, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • No errors generate when importing libraries from databases without library tables.

Build 2.1.15 October 30, 2007

• Added a feature for trimming an opening's pipe distance to the structure's inside wall. The trimmed pipe provides more accurate pipe quantities in BOM and pipe reports. Also, the Site Plan displays the trimmed pipe to a structure's inside wall instead of the center. Please contact FBE to activate this feature.

Build 2.1.14 October 23, 2007

• Changed dimensioning for elongated openings in boxes in the Plan View to display both width and height as xxxW/xxxH where "xxx" is the width/height dimension. However, elongated openings such as dog house openings DO NOT display the full dog house height dimension to the dog house edge of the piece.

Build 2.1.13 October 17, 2007

• Added a new "Shop" column to the BOM table in the Status screen. The new Shop column displays an "X" for precast pieces that will generate a shop drawing.
• Added a new "Specify Qtys" check box to the Pipe Fittings screen. When Specify Qtys is checked, the user can control pipe quantities for the downstream ("From" and/or "To") pipes. Otherwise, the system automatically calculates just the downstream pipe quantity (From Qty) as the difference between the structure distance and the pipe fitting distance.

Build 2.1.11 to 2.1.12 September 21, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.1.10 October 5, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • When the default precision hole type is Cored, use Cored for precision holes.
  • Fixed a fatal bug in Structure Design's copy data.

Build 2.1.9 September 21, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.1.8 September 21, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Since the plan view started showing the base extension, it has been calculating the outside distance between holes using the base extension rather than the wall size.

Build 2.1.7 September 14, 2007

• Both ProductID and PartNumber are now shown on the BOM tab of the Status screen.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a situation where some older Migrated structures had been stacking with no adjusting rings when at least one adjusting ring should have been required.

Build 2.1.6 September 13, 2007

• Added ReductionStyle MaxChimney. This allows a maximum height of chimney pieces above a size reduction.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed some stability issues on the Structure Screen.

Build 2.1.5 September 7, 2007

• When a base is poured around a riser on blocks, MH Pro can now show and dimension the block.
• Link-Seal connectors are now part of the basic connector library.
• Connectors can now have a ConnectorLength. This means that Link-Seal connectors with sleeves can be modeled properly.
• Bug Fixes:
  • The Sump Height is now being copied like the rest of the structure's design data when new structures are added.

Build 2.1.4 August 27, 2007

• The Plan View now shows the outline of the base extension when a structure has an extended base.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Dates are now coerced into the Windows date format so that they will be in an appropriate format when saved to the database. This fixes a bug that occurred when text format dates were saved to the database.

Build 2.1.3 August 21, 2007

• The Status screen has a new "All Notes" tab which summarizes all the notes for the current structure in one place.
• Fixed the Pipe Length fields in the Pipe Fittings for Structure section of the Pipe Fittings screen to replace the currently selected library with a new library when the Pipe Length is changed. The new library is exactly like the old library except for the new pipe length.
• Added a "Sump is not valid. Please enter a valid sump" status message to warn when the sump copied from the reference structure is negative. This allows the user to specify a negative sump to signal that a sump value must be entered.

Build 2.1.2 August 13, 2007

• There is now a Floating screen menu option. The Options menu now includes the choice of using large or small icons on the Toolbar.
• Reworked platform naming and naming of parts with platforms so that pieces with platforms will be noted on the Order Summary report.

Build 2.1.1 August 10, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a datatype error when saving data for new openings.

Build 2.1.0 August 8, 2007

• In acknowledgment of a paper version of the MH Pro! User Manual, this is version 2.1.0.
• The Structure screen now shows the placement modifiers in their own selection list. This should make it easier to use the advanced hole placement features - No more hidden interface.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Build Tolerance High and Build Tolerance Low now allow only positive lengths to be entered.

Build 2.0.49 August 6, 2007

• Job export and import are now available on the Migration screen. Import is only available for jobs that were exported from the current version. Import is much faster than the Migration copy routines, so use it when it is available.
• A new screen for managing pipe fittings is available for testing.
• On the Structure Design screen, the tabs of the Middle section now include a "+" when the tab is set to participate in AutoStacking.
• The Structure Design screen is now noticeably faster.
• Tops now have their own Minimum and Maximum Height on the Structure Design Screen.
• Bug Fixes:
  • The Butterfly view now shows Elevation dimensions on one of the elevation views.
  • Fixed an overflow error in the graphics when zooming in to the maximum zoom.
  • The selected job in the job screen now follows user selection in a more reasonable way.
  • Added a "Stacked Structs" column to the Job datagrid so that you can see how many structures in each job are stacked.

Build 2.0.48 July 23, 2007

• Internal build for testing.

Build 2.0.46 to 2.0.47 July 18, 2007

• Replaced the Archive Screen with a new Migration Screen (see the icon with the letter M on it).
• Added a progress bar for deleting jobs.
• Removed the step graphic from the Plan View when a precast piece does not have steps.

Build 2.0.45 July 3, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.44 June 28, 2007

• The Site Plan now measures in Feet for English databases, mm for metric databases. The Site Plan screen was also reformatted to look more like the other graphic screens.
• The Structure Design screen now takes up less vertical space. This lets it fit better on widescreen laptops.
• The Archive screen has also been reformatted to take up less space and show more meaningful data about Jobs.
• Bug Fixes:
  • AutoStacking had been having problems building minimum height structures. We re-wrote it to fix this problem. As a side effect, the re-write caused stacking to run slightly faster.
  • Fixed a bug where selecting a printer in print setup would be ignored. The selection is now tracked.

Build 2.0.43 June 22, 2007

• Internal build for testing.

Build 2.0.42 June 21, 2007

• The plan view now uses the size of the bottom most wall to draw openings. This allows structures with oversize bases to draw openings on the appropriate diameter wall.

Build 2.0.39 to 2.0.41 June 20, 2007

• Customer builds.

Build 2.0.38 June 19, 2007

• Added a new 'Hole Shape' field to the Pipe Library Screen so that round pegs can be put into square holes and square pegs can be jammed into round holes :)
• Contech Stormfilters can now be drawn for 48", 72" and 96" structures. Miscellaneous Items can add filter media to the BOM for Stormfilter structures.
• Miscellaneous Items can now have Weight. This is summed into the structure's total weight.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Copying a structure on the structure screen once again copies the frame and grate.
  • Arch openings now calculate their volume and are deducted from the weight of the piece.
  • Structure Quantity must now be 1 or greater. Use Ignore Structure on the Structure Screen to skip the structure in most reports.

Build 2.0.37 June 12, 2007

• Added additional controls for filtering and searching for rows in the Pricing screen. Each column has a new control located directly above the heading which provides a drop down list for selecting an entry to filter for the matching row(s). In addition to the drop down list, a key string may be entered in the control to search for row(s) that contain the matching string. At this time, only the Category (filter only, entry not allowed), Product ID, and Description controls are functional.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed Sump Height on the Structure screen so that applying changes does not reset it to the Reference Structure's value.
  • Fixed step angular placement for round structures in the Rollout View screen.

Build 2.0.36 June 7, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Naming routines now use company height conventions when searching for heights in naming strings.
  • Show Job notes on all BOM reports.

Build 2.0.35 June 6, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Miscellaneous items now include the structure quantity in the Quote and BOM quantity calculations.
  • The final reducers available in the structure design screen now include reductions from all of the sizes selected for intermediate reductions.
  • Warnings now appear above missing prices on the status screen. This should make it easier to scan past pricing messages when trying to build the structure.

Build 2.0.34 June 4, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • To be an intrusion from the piece below, a hole must actually have some portion below the bottom of the current piece, not just below the inside floor of the base. Fixed.
  • The end points of the angle dimensions are now positioned to the center of the piece, not to the center of the structure. Fixes a bug when pipes are in a chimney.

Build 2.0.33 June 1, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Apply now saves changes to the contractor list even when no job is loaded.
  • The "No Grate/Cover is specified" warning does show up when no Grates/Covers are present in the Grate library.
  • Fixed a bug where Grate selections were not being propagated when new upstream structures and a change to the grate occurred at the same time.

Build 2.0.32 May 30, 2007

• Slope Tops can now use the low side as the setup height.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Obsolete pieces and pieces from other plants now always show a * or *** prefix on the Structure Design screen.
  • Fixed an object not found error when calculating the invert elevation of a root opening.

Build 2.0.31 May 22, 2007

• Auto Stacking now has Variance and AbsVariance to allow over-height structures to minimize the total height.
• Structures that refer to obsolete pieces will now re-stack in the Auto Stacking screen. Obsolete pieces in a stack now generate an error status.
• The elevation view in shop drawings now dimensions openings across the bottom joint to the top of the opening.
• Platforms can snap to the standard location in each piece.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Removed duplicated entries when adding new library items.

Build 2.0.30 May 16, 2007

• Added a new 'Sump Height' control to the Structure screen.
• Slope tops can be added using the Fabricated Steel screen using the Height, Graphic Height, Top Treatment (Cast In), and Graphic Type (Slope Top Long and Slope Top Short) fields. The slope of the slope top is the Graphic Height whereas the height of the slope to frame is the contribution to the build height which is normally negative.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed the Rollout View screen so that it displays steps. Box structure steps may be unstable depending on the structure configuration.

Build 2.0.29 May 9, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed rounding so that various graphical views report consistent results.

Build 2.0.28 May 8, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Cast-In and Notch-For frames now properly deal with keyed tops.
  • Pipe now has an unselected option for uniformity.

Build 2.0.27 May 3, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • The Job Data screen no longer throws out all pending changes when trying to save with a non-valid entry.

Build 2.0.26 May 2, 2007

• Trial project for a new customer.

Build 2.0.25 April 25, 2007

• Added extended base dimension to elevation view. Reworked Grade and Top dims to position themselves better when other dimensions and notes are present. Let grates read the GraphicHeight for a frame or grate.
• Added MiscItems and Additional item to the BOM reports.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Explicitly specify data grid column visibility for Miscellaneous Items in the structure.
  • Pallet openings are not pipe collisions. Opening in Casting is different than opening above casting.
  • Grates read the GraphicHeight for a frame or grate.

Build 2.0.24 April 23, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.23 April 16, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed an error that occurred when the database had the same piece selected twice in a stacking zone.
  • Fixed an archive bug that made it hard to resurrect migrated pipes.
  • Opening collisions with a Base In Riser joint are now warnings not errors.
  • Finally fixed the elevation view graphics so that it does not draw a silhouette line across the inside bottom of bases.

Build 2.0.22 April 11, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.21 April 9, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed the status line collision to generate a warning instead of an error when a Poured in Riser Base is too close to an opening.

Build 2.0.20 April 6, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.19 April 6, 2007

• Changing the PricingKey of a Base Poured In Field now changes the Elevation view description of the base. This means that a gravel bed below the riser can now say "Gravel bed".
• Bug Fixes:
  • Automatic Stacking now recalculates the location of each Below Adjustment opening based on the candidate stack. This allows the collision calculations to properly count the collisions for each candidate stack.
  • MH Pro! EZ can now generate reports when installed on a Windows Vista machine. Our testing for Vista is not yet complete, but this gets things started.
  • Miscellaneous Items are now included in export databases.
  • Openings that are in both the first riser and in a Base Poured In Field now draw appropriately in the riser if the top of the pipe is in the riser. (If the top of pipe is below the riser, we assume that no alteration of the riser is needed.)

Build 2.0.18 March 30, 2007

• Added a new Miscellaneous Items screen to allow miscellaneous items to be added to structures for the Order Summary and BOM Excel reports.
• Platforms can now have notes to describe custom features.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Minimum Height and Maximum Height now actually work when set for the base section of the StructureDesign.
  • AutoStacking no longer throws away stacks that differ by the thickness of a separate slab base.

Build 2.0.17 March 13, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.16 March 8, 2007

• InsideDropStyle and OutsideDropStyle are now per structure. DropStyle may now be specified on the StructureDesign screen.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fix a bug that occurs when a Zero diameter feature is located exactly in a corner of a box.

Build 2.0.15 March 5, 2007

• FBE Remote Support now has 10 ports available for connections between customers and FBE staff.
• The Elevation view now tracks the A-A view orientation based on the GraphicSettings. This means that the view marked A-A is the elevation view as seen on the report.
• The Job screen can now show the Location1 and Location2 fields from the Job table.
• Bug Fixes:
  • The Export Database report used to lose openings when exporting single or selected structures. Openings that ran to upstream structures would be lost. Now they are converted to AdHoc openings.
  • The elevation view no longer dimensions the structure TopOfCasting on shop drawing of pieces with cast-in frames.
  • BOM now formats quantities to, at most, two decimal places. This fixes unreadable data when showing fractional quantities.

Build 2.0.14 February 27, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Special characters in export databases names used to cause the export to fail.

Build 2.0.13 February 14, 2007

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a bug introduced in version 2.0.10 where small changes in the structure were not saved to the database.
  • Fixed a bug where a Min Height specified for the adjusting ring in the Top tab of the Structure Design screen was ignored such that structures would AutoStack without adjusting rings.

Build 2.0.12 February 8, 2007

• Major overhaul of the Structure Design screen to add two new reducer zones.

Build 2.0.11 February 8, 2007

• Bug fix release.

Build 2.0.10 February 7, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.9 February 6, 2007

• The Pricing Key of a precast piece can now be edited on the Stack Editor. This allows the creation of custom, priceable pieces that show the edited Pricing Key in the Bill of Materials and part description.
• OutletInRiser is a new goodness criteria. In structures with sumps, this will place the outlet hole at the bottom of the first riser where it is easy to position in the form.
• The button toolbar can now be forced to stay at the top or on the left side of the screen.
• Bug Fixes:
  • AutoStacking now properly treats a Zero Or One setting as Zero even when the zone is limited with a Minimum Height and a Maximum height.
  • Sumps and holes in floors can be box shaped.

Build 2.0.8 January 30, 2007

• Customer fix build.

Build 2.0.7 January 25, 2007

• Openings in the floor can now be positioned off-center. Use the new D modifier to the Opening Angle to specify the off-center distance.
• Openings can now use the Vertical Notch graphic style for structures that are notched to support installation of weir walls.
• Openings in the floor can now be marked as a Sump in Floor.
• PSX Cast-a-Seal boots are now included in the Connector Library.
• Manhole Tee bases can now be stacked for 180 degree straight through configurations.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Resolved a long standing uncommitted change issue where the Paste command on the Structure Design screen would confuse the Reference Structure selection on the Structure screen. When the uncommitted change on the Structure screen saved, it over wrote the data from the Structure Design screen's Paste command.

Build 2.0.6 January 19, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.5 January 17, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.4 January 12, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.3 January 10, 2007

• Customer build.

Build 2.0.2 January 9, 2007

• The MH Pro! EZ help file has been updated with current information.
• There are now three possible pricing methods for quoting a structure one of which (the first) is based on BOM data. A Quote may contain structures which are priced using one, some, or all of:
  • The current method of rolling up a price from individual piece and component prices
  • A price as fixed plus price per unit height
  • A specified price for each structure
• A new Quote report uses these new pricing methods.
• The status screen display of BOM and Quote date has been reformatted to show important data in the first columns.
• The status screen now uses a light blue color to highlight pricing errors. This should make it easier to distinguish between ignorable pricing errors and important design errors.
• A new paper describes MH Pro! EZ's calculation and rounding process in great detail. We have used this to tweak the rounding routines to match customer expectations of hole placement.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Status updates no longer throw occasional database errors. We found that bug and hung it out to dry.
  • Cone interior silhouette lines are shown in light gray.

Build 2.0.1 December 18, 2006

• MH Pro! EZ is now covered by US Patent 7,146,295. In celebration, MH Pro! EZ is now Version 2.0. We also had a party at the bar to celebrate. You can celebrate by enjoying Version 2.0.
• Placement of holes in boxes is now more accurate and more flexible. In addition to the F modifier that places a hole into the closest box face, the new R modifier places the hole in the Right face, (L in the Left face) as seen when looking down the pipe from the center of the structure. This makes it easier to move pipes into the short wall of a rectangular box, or to select the appropriate wall for a 45 degree pipe in a square structure.
• Goss Traps (oil traps for curb inlets) do not copy to inlet pipes.
• Bug Fixes:
  • When using the F placement modifier for a 45 degree pipe in a square structure, the Plan and Elevation view each chose a different face for placement. This was bad.
  • More reports now switch automatically between lbs and kgs.
  • The BOM re-work in 1.1.77 accidentally dropped channels from the BOM.

Build 1.1.79 December 6, 2006

• CAD blocks can now be used for openings in the Plan View.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Hole size once again calculates when pipe size changes.

Build 1.1.78 December 4, 2006

• Dynamically sized structures are now released.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Poured in field bases were confused when a structure had only a floor elevation. Now they are not confused.
  • Rounding of hole dimensions can now be controlled more exactly with HoleDimRoundOffset. This allows us to specify that 0.75 should round down to 0 while 0.76 rounds up to 1. The old Down rounding would round 0.99 to 0., so HoleDimRoundOffset allows us to control rounding so that it makes sense. (This fixes a customer issue where 0.02' (0.24") was rounded Down to 0.00" rather than the desired 0.25".)

Build 1.1.77 November 20, 2006

• Boot clamps can be shown on BOM By Structure and BOM Summary reports.
• Piece notes and structure notes are now shown on BOM By Structure reports by default.
• Bug Fixes:
  • The code to retrieve Contractor Library data on the Archive screen was flawed. It copied all the data, but failed to commit the change. It now commits the change.

Build 1.1.76 November 15, 2006

• Changed the PIC check box on the Pipe Library to Pipe Location. The new Pipe Location control provides Center, Bottom, and Top selections. Additionally, the placement of the hole along the pipe centerline can be controlled by a vertical distance.
• AutoStacking has been tweaked so that candidate stacks at Build Tolerance Low are not displayed. This eliminates essentially duplicate stacks when the structure's build height aligns with standard precast piece increments.
• Structures can now specify Silica Fume or Con MIC Shield admixture for precast pieces.
• NPC connectors have been updated to match the current product sheets.
• Added Lane HDPE pipes.
• Bug Fixes:
  • There are now descriptions labeling each of the Custom graphic setting options. We should have done that a while ago.

Build 1.1.75 October 25, 2006

• A new Reduction Style, "Above Outlet Hole" can be used to locate the slab reducer relative to the top of the outlet hole.
• Frames can now specify "Notch For" to create a notch on the precast piece below that will hold the frame. This is similar to "Cast In", but the Frame ships loose rather than in the precast assembly.
• There is a new Stack Use key for the Structure Design Screen. "Zero/More limit each" allows a riser zone to deeply stack using any particular size. This allows reference structures to be easily created that limit the weight of each piece.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Screen prints in landscape mode were screwed up by code that was trapping for other errors. Now they position properly.
  • Fixed a lag-by-one situation when modifying the pricing screen.

Build 1.1.74 October 4, 2006

• Bug Fixes:
  • Base slabs poured in risers now draw and document more appropriately when the riser is placed on blocks before the pour.

Build 1.1.73 September 29, 2006

• Joint seals for the top and bottom of reducing structures can now differ.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Elevation view is more tolerant of roundoff errors.

Build 1.1.72 September 28, 2006

• Bug Fixes:
  • Handle errors when trying to print with no printer installed.

Build 1.1.71 September 22, 2006

• Added 'Clamp Number' to the Connector Library to supplement the existing Clamp Count field and updated these fields on the database with manufacturer data for booted connectors (PSX, IPS, and Kor-N-Seal.)

• Bug Fixes:
  • BOM entries for Coatings now report quantities in feet or or meters. They used to report in inches or millimeters.

Build 1.1.68 August 29, 2006

• Added a new "Based On Sheet" field to the Other tab in the Notes screen. This field provides a method for documenting the sheet number in the engineering plans that includes the structure take-off data.

  • FBE Remote Support now directly connects without requiring a double click.

Build 1.1.61 July 12, 2006

• Pipe, fabricated steel, and precast pieces can be marked "By Others". Reports can use this field to select only the parts that will be shipped.
• New graphic options for Frames allows the frame to draw the frame and cover/grate without using a grate specification. This should mean that matched frame/cover sets will never need a grate specification.

Build 1.1.60 July 11, 2006

• PDF files can now be created for each element in the report's Table of Contents. (That is one file per structure, or one file per custom piece, etc.)
• A Cast-In frame now makes a piece custom, and the frame name is appended to the description of the piece.
• If an AutoCAD block is available for a Cast-In frame it is drawn with its piece in the elevation view.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Descriptive hole callouts now note the hole shape and uniformly describe hole size as Span X Rise.
  • Fixed problems with FloorElevation when a pipe was specified for a FloorElevation. - Note this may change the build height for existing structures as the old calculations were bad.

Build 1.1.59 July 06, 2006

• Added capability to the Plan View to display AutoCAD blocks for Top and Bottom views.
• Added a new "Flange Ext. Radius" field to the Structure Design screen to provide control of a base's extension. Note that existing base pieces will ignore this parameter until they are updated in the database.
• Slab Thickness on the Piece Editor screen now controls a base's slab thickness.
• Added new "Generate Hole Name" and "Generate End Name" check boxes to the Pipe screen (see Pipe Library and End Library tabs.) Both fields control whether the system should automatically generate a name. In the past this was definitely frustrating if you supplied the name first all to realize that it gets wiped out when you start filling in the fields. Now you can change that behavior by unchecking the Generate Hole Name or Generate End Name box. When the box is unchecked the system will not generate a name and you are free to supply the name at any time while you're working on the pipe or end library entry. Both fields default to a checked state for a new library entry.

Build 1.1.58 June 23, 2006

• Bug Fixes:
  • When the structure screen detects an invalid entry while saving, it no longer resets to the last saved data (thus throwing away all of your data entries for this structure, that you read off of three different pages of the job drawings, that you already highlighted and now have to re-find, causing you to get angry and throw things at your co-workers, causing you to lose your job, leaving you destitute, so you steal food to survive, until they catch you, lock you up, and you die a slow death, poor, bitter, and imprisoned. (but that won't happen any more, 'cause it's fixed!))
  • Fixed a bug in the elevation routines that draw round holes on the back of box structures.

Build 1.1.57 June 20, 2006

• Openings in boxes can now be trapezoids with guard rods.

• Added Reinforcing Spec to allow selection of simple reinforcing plans.
• Oversized holes (larger than the inside core of the structure) are now drawn better in box structures.
• Openings can now be drawn using AutoCAD blocks. Bring us your complex, your bizarre, your unusual openings yearning to breathe free. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me.
• Structure ends can also be drawn using AutoCAD blocks.
• Reports and graphics can now be customized to show Metric units even when the internal calculations are in English. Of course, it also works vice versa.
• OPSD landing platforms are now drawn in the plan view and steps are now drawn on both sides in plan and elevation views.

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed an annoying bug in drawing channels.
  • Fixed an annoying bug when dimensioning zero diameter holes in boxes.

  • Fixed bug in Link Data screen that results from resurrecting a pipe or end.

Build 1.1.32 November 10, 2005

• The installation routines now force you to pick your plant site before you can run MH Pro! EZ. This means that you will not be able to forget to switch to your plant site on installation.
• Pipe Size is now dependent on Pipe Shape. This means a change in entering pipe data, but means that arch and elliptical pipe can be named by rise and span rather than equivalent hydraulic diameter (this is a good thing).
• Bug Fixes:
  • Checked structures on the Flow Tree are now really checked.
  • Some report Bill of Materials were limited to 8 elements. This limitation has been removed.
  • Cast-in frames and covers are now drawn with the last precast piece, rather than floating above.

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed a bug in the Opening Schedule on the Plan View screen when the structure has no openings.
  • Fixed BOM generation so that Trash Guards on Ends have the correct sense.

Build 1.1.30 September 13, 2005

• Bug Fixes:
  • Added SlopeTop height to the dimension stack of the elevation view.

Build 1.1.29 September 8, 2005

• Channel weight for box structures with channels is now approximated.
• Channel weight for sloped bottom is now calculated.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Added Allow Frame Collision field to the Structure Design screen. When checked a structure that is too tall will collide with the frame drawn at the specified Top Of Casting. When not checked, (the default) a structure that is too tall will add to the sump or secondary pour so that the Top Of Casting will not be violated. This item was implemented as an expedited fix in 1.1.21.

Build 1.1.22 June 27, 2005

• An error status is now provided when a channeled opening is not in the piece with channels.
• Big bug fix. Reports now set their paper size and orientation rather than just hoping that Letter and Portrait are the current settings of the system default printer. Wish we fixed this one a long time ago. Argh.
• Status information is now stored in the database. This makes loading jobs marginally faster, after the job is synchronized with the current version of MH Pro! EZ.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Elevation view now shows a single dimension for all adjusting rings and variance to the bottom of the casting.
  • Some special tops are now anchored to the TopOfCasting and place any variance below them.

• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed column width bug in the opening schedule of the Plan View.

Build 1.1.15 May 31, 2005

• Added a Preferred goodness key to the Auto Stacking screen. Now arbitrary parts can be preferred over other arbitrary parts. Specifically, a 24"HI base can be preferred over a 16"HI or 32"HI base. (This has been implemented only for one company, but we know that all of you are arbitrary, so if you want to prefer some parts in an arbitrary way, drop us a note.)
• Elevation View dimensions now go up to the TopOfCasting.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Inside Drop and Open To Channel drops now show a blank entry for Connector in the on line opening schedule.

Build 1.1.14 May 25, 2005

• There are new drop graphics options available for reports and on line. These options are described in a separate email.
• Add Coating Inside and Coating Outside options to the Structure Design screen. We realize that the values here need to be customized for each precaster, so send comments. Also describe how/where coating and cladding need to be displayed on your reports.
• Added Step Name option to the Structure Design screen. Now MH Pro can distinguish between various types of steps. As with coatings above, send comments and reporting examples.
• Added Joint Seal option to the Structure Design screen. blah blah blah ... different Joint Seals ... blah blah blah ... send comments and reporting examples.
• New Channel Height option: Sloped Bottom.
• New Drop opening option: Open To Channel.
• Mortared holes with Pipe In Center are now described as Mortar instead of Mortar PIC. Pipe In Bottom is still Mortar PIB and/or Mortar Pipe In Bottom as space permits.
• Connector Models now sort according to how well the pipe fits in the connector. This means that the top A-Lok connector will now be the most appropriate connector for the specified pipe.
• Opening Schedules now handles Inside and Outside Arc Distances based on company preference. Also, the Opening Schedules on screen and reports are consistent with the elevation view hole dimensions.
• The elevation view graphics now allow more flexibility for choosing the dimension reference location for holes and precast pieces.

• Internal build for testing.

Build 1.1.12 May 6, 2005

• It is now possible to specify both a BuildToleranceLow and a BuildToleranceHigh. This allows precision height structures that always exactly match the OutletInvert to TopOfCasting by placing any extra height below the invert as additional sump or additional secondary pour.
• Some reports now have the option of creating a Table Of Contents.
• Reducing structures can now specify the minimum height required before reduction.
• Pieces above reducers can now try to match the key on top of the reducer.

• Bug Fixes:
  • Archive does not over write priced entries when copying library data.

Build 1.1.6 April 4, 2005

• Pricing migration no longer writes over existing Priced entries. Unpriced entries are overwritten. To get Priced entries to migrate, simply remove the conflicting Priced entries from the current database.
• Bug Fixes:
  • When Frame data is migrated, the SectionSize is now copied. This bug was introduced in 1.1.1, so copy frame libraries from older versions to have data in SectionSize.

• BOM and Quote entries now pay attention to StructureOption='Ignore'.
• Zoom in the graphics views is now one click instead of two.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Pipe screen now notices uncommitted Use? entries and properly screams at you to commit them when appropriate.

  • The default BOM entry for a step is no longer "Step Step".
  • A-Lok connectors now default to "Cast-In" as the hole type.
  • Removed system supplied Connectors from Connector Library.

Build 1.0.24 February 24, 2005

• Report changes for a specific customer.
• Reports are being changed over to the new graphics engine. All reports that used the old engine now have two versions - the new version for review and the old version for compatibility.

Build 1.0.9 September 14, 2004

• New Auto Stacking goodness criteria Base Height orders the stacks by the height of the base section from shortest to tallest. Now it is easy to pick the smallest base that will work for the structure.
• Quotation terms can now be specified for each job.
• New Structure Design option - Match Base Key. When checked, the riser above a slab base will try to match the top treatment of the base to the bottom treatment of the riser.

• Steps can be installed in reducing slabs. (Actually in anything).
• When a quotation element has no price, the name of the element is now included in the status message. This makes it easier to find the element in the pricing screen and price it.
• The description of channels on the submittal reports is now customizable for each customer. You can call it channels, or you can call it invert, or you can call it bench, but you doesn't have to call it Johnson ...
• Build height display can be customized for each customer so that risers can be called barrels, or spacers, or Johnson ...
• Status messages now include HoleName and PartDescription where appropriate. This is more descriptive than Opening #3 on StackElement #4.
• New graphics routines will draw sloped precast tops. Sloped tops can be drawn with or without a honeycomb grate.
• Bug Fixes:
  • When a structure is added upstream of an existing structure, the opening on the existing structure is now interpreted as being at the outlet invert of the existing structure. It used to be interpreted as FieldElevation=0 which tended to make the build height and elevation view very strange. Note: it is good practice to set the FieldElevation for the new opening, because the outlet elevation is probably not where you want the new opening.
  • AutoStacking now uses the same methods for initializing the pricing table entries that the rest of the system uses.
  • Graphics for poured in field bases are improved. The system now does a better job of determining where the pipes are in relation to a poured in field base.

• Volume and weight of precast channels are now included with the base shell weight where weight is reported. (Round bases only) (Not present on the AutoStacking screen).
• Added Most downstream outlet orientation selector to the Site Plan screen.
• Site Plan and Plan View now use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out.
• BOM and Quotation part descriptions are now directly pulled from the Pricing screen description field.
• Structures with Top of Casting and a Floor Elevation now report a reasonable build height even when there are no openings.
• This version automatically loads and registers the supporting FBE and MHPro .dlls and .ocxs. This means that it can be run side by side with the next version of MH Pro! EZ without uninstalling and re-installing each version.

• The elevation view and BOM now label the precast sections from the top of the stack down.
• A Product ID can now be entered for the Additional Quote line item.
• Replaced Unlinked Data Screen with Link Data. In addition to providing a method for changing unlinked data, the new screen includes a "Filter By" section for filter the type of data to be included for changing. Data types include, All, Unlinked, Linked (Used in Job) and Linked (Not Used in Job). The Linked data types provide a quick method for setting Frame/Ring, Grate/Cover, and Pipe data regardless of whether the data is up to date or not.
