NEW# A custom OSGeo standard based TMS server NEW# Support of Spanish language NEW# Disto rangefinder support for the CoGo tools. Now it is possible to connect the Disto device to topoXpress on iOS platform through Bluetooth (no Wifi support). In the CoGo tools, when a simple Disto device is used (e.g. X3) it only transmits the horizontal distance (no inclination data). If the Disto device has the DST360 extension, the azimuth value is transmitted into the CoGo survey panel. NEW# Voice messages were introduced for GNSS surveying. The connection status of the GNSS device (get GNSS, lost GNSS, get RTK, lost RTK), the current distance during Stake Out (10m, 5m, 1m, 50cm, 10cm) and a confirmation message after measurement are implemented. BUG# After changing the CRS in Projects/Current/Projection menu point, the mapview moved far away from the last seen location. Now the mapview is staying approximately on the same location after a CRS change. BUG# When a new record was created or an existing record was modified in TopoLynx Cloud synchronised project on iOS or macOS , the app could crash after pressing the save icon at the top right. This issue was resolved.

NEW# Azimuth as new default/calculated value. Azimuth degree calculation based on a line object's starting and endpoint. CHG# Path and filename of linked media file (photo, or audio) can be specified under Settings / Attribute / Media menu. BUG# Layer/Attributes/Field panel - Multi selection (in code list of a string type field) switch was missed.

New features: -CoGo toolset: Calculate average point from selected objects vertices. Save the result point into the CoGo layer. -Create geometry based fields (east-north / lat-lon, length, area, perimeter) for a vector layer, and calculate its values. -Draw new vertex into the center of the map, based on a crosshair. Tool for digitizing point on the field. This release contains bugfixes: -Error in automatic fieldname validation method.

New Features: -Basic module: Cheaper licenses are available for lower price with limited funcionality. For more info visit topoxpress.com. Changes: -WMS update: Zoom to layer extent button was re-intorduced and fixed. The displayed layer bound information on the panes was improved. Transparency control and Tranparent color selection is working. Dispaly modes were simplified and a potetntial error was fixed in the tile request. Helper guides were added to the layers tab. -Same Input geometry labeling style in each toolset, with improved label rendering method Bug fixes: -The EPSG number retrival from the metadata was fixed for WMS layers. This bug previously casued that, the value of the EPSG code was 0 in the layer properties and no tiles were downloaded. -In the case of an average measurement, the information points do not fall on the breaking points of the area. -Class panel (Symbol, Line, Fill) label rendering issue. -When the Dark Style is turned on under the Settings/Map, the transparency of vector layers can not be set.

New features: -Reorganized touch gestures. -Better stability during document collection and GNSS surveying. -Support for Lzw compressed TIFF/BigTIFF files. -Raster georeferencig panel was added to the layer settings where the layer's projection transformation parameters could be set. It allows On-the-Fly transformation for raster files. -More TMS layers are avaliable. The following bugs were fixed: BUG# 1488 When a TMS layer was loaded into a project and the map scale was too large (e.g. over 1:100000000) the app called invalid tile downloads wich could crash the application. BUG# 1497 Cancel of the create new record does not roll back the counter for "Increase last value" field default BUG# 1439 After deleting objects, the bounds for the Zoom to Layer function is not updating BUG# 1500 After cloud login at firt launch the associated modules are not loaded into the main menu BUG# 1505 On iOS when using the system keyboard, longer texts could be entered into the system keyboard than the field's capacity. These longer texts are displayed in the table only in the current session. After restart the field's content is croped to length. The number of characters is now limited by the field's width when using the system keyboard BUG# 1474 A DXF load error was fixed which could cause a crash with specific files, even those which were created with topoXpress. The attribute loader was changed to prevent this error BUG# 1455 In Demo mode the Icons on the GIS toolkit has undefined behaviour BUG# 1496 Files created with MAP format and UTF-8 encoding are having issues with during attribute reload. The attributes are becoming either missing or mixed up BUG# 1360 If the text is too long, the full text will not be visible in the lists, even in the rotated view BUG# 1494 Program can crash when using raster index display modes (difference,ratio, NDSI)

-The continous map draw bug was fixed, which result less battery drain during the use. -The device identification mechanism was changed to Apple Keychain based method, which prevents the user from reentering the license password on app update. -Improved user interaction and stability for external GNSS (Automatic connection and disconnection is handled). -Improved display capacities to support extra large datasets. -Improved networking capacities which results faster app launch. -A skyplot visulaization was added when the built in GNSS is selected. (see details in the topoXpress iOS guide) -Dark mode is now inverting the avalible colors on the map (Find under Settings/Map). -New fonts and menu styles are avaliable under the Settings/System menu. -The available features connected to the license could be checked under the Software/Available Features section. Other changes and bug fixes: NEW# 1451 Field can be set as read only CHG# 1493 SHP/DBF layer field name check. CHG# 1442 CoGo improvements BUG# 1437 Bug fixing at label rendering BUG# 1430 TableView navigation fixed. BUG# 1444 BUG Field list is not refreshing in field default or calculated value expression builder BUG# 1448 GNSS survey of a multipart object - unable to delete last vertex from the main part
