The rasterizer service is now disabled by default in server.
Symbol Use Improvements:
The terminology used to describe changing the current view of a symbol to top, bottom, side,
etc. is now "Change Orientation".
A "Change Orientation" command has been added to the toolbar.
When a symbol is selected, the key combination ALT-O toggles symbol orientation.
Front and rear views have been added for commonly used vehicle symbols.
The default location for text in vehicle symbols has been changed from the center to beneath
the symbol to improve visibility.
New top-down view pedestrian symbols have been added.
New recreational vehicle symbols - boats, ATVs, jet skis, and associated trailers have been
added.
New electric and motor scooter symbols have been added.
New motorcycle and bike helmet symbols have been added.
New school crossing sign symbols have been added.
New triangle warning lane marker symbols have been added.
The North Indicator symbol now has thicker lines to enhance visibility.
Incident metadata that will be included in a header block for printed diagrams may be specified via
the printedDiagramHeader property.
A link to the fingertap.com documentation website has been added to the info menu.
Changes in Version 7.6:
The editor can now be run in environments that block 'unsafe-eval' via content security policies.
The local rasterizer is enabled by default in browsers that support it (Chrome, Safari, Firefox).
This allows the editor to render diagrams as raster images without making a server request in
widely used browsers. In prior versions, this was an option that had to be enabled.
NearMap is now available as an additional map image source in diagrams.
This provides another source of high-resolution map imagery.
Symbols search has been improved by considering symbol categories and by improving the ordering
of symbol search results.
Symbols are now organized by region, and region-specific symbols can be enabled and disabled.
Many new symbols have been added including scooters, helmets, additional school crossing signs,
recreational boats and items related to wildlife conservation.
Crosswalk formatting has been enhanced to include more control over stripe color and the layout of
stripes.
Diagram printing has been improved by updating available page sizes to better support the needs of
European customers.
Articulating doors were added to frequently used vehicle symbols.
An interior view was added to frequently used vehicle symbols.
A new custom template import utility has been added.
Changes in Version 7.5:
A new grass street divider type is available. Street lanes may also have a fill color.
Symbol search has been improved by considering additional symbol keyword metadata.
This makes it easier to find symbols using alternative names.
For example, searches for "Bike" and "Bicycle" will both include the Bicycle symbol.
New auto-numbered label symbols are available.
These symbols are automatically assigned a unique number as they are added to the diagram.
They are available on the streets, structures, and symbols layers.
The profile of linear symbols can be set in the same way as streets and lines.
Text in text boxes, rectangles, and squares can be aligned vertically and horizontally.
A new API method has been added that destroys the diagram editor.
This is useful when the editor must be created and destroyed more than
once during the life of a page.
Symbol group and un-group accelerator keys have been added that are consistent with Trancite
Windows apps. I.E., CTRL-G will group symbols and CTRL-U will un-group symbols.
Changes in Version 7.4:
Improved Structure Drawing:
All structure drawing has been moved to a new Structures layer.
This includes reorganizing all structure symbols in the Symbol Manager.
Drawing a structure using the Structure Painter tool can be resumed.
New interior walls can be drawn in existing structures using the Structure Painter tool
(in addition to drag-and-drop).
Right-angle indicators and connection aides are shown when drawing or editing a structure.
Wall lengths can be set to the nearest inch or centimeter when using the Structure Painter tool
via the arrow keys. Selected walls, windows, and doors can also be moved in inch/cm increments
using the arrow keys after the structure is drawn. Windows, doors, and walls in structures can
be copied using CTRL-Drag.
Roadside feature symbols like guardrails, bridge railings and other barriers are available on the
Streets layer.
The lengths of linear symbols can be set to specific values.
The lengths of linear symbols can now be shown in diagrams.
The editor is included on pages as one JavaScript file (in prior releases separate CSS and
JavaScript files were included on pages). The process of getting the editor on a page is simplified and
all traces of the Dojo loader have been eliminated.
IE 9 & 10 are no longer supported.
Changes in Version 7.3:
The editor's new Views feature is enabled by setting the viewAreasEnabled configuration property
to true. viewAreasEnabled is a property of the configuration object passed to the editor's
Startup method.
Editor property userSettingDefaults has been deprecated and should not be used.
Instead use property userSettings.
The Startup method's userSettingDefaults configuration
property has been deprecated and should not be used. Instead, use the Startup method's
userSettings configuration property. This property supports the same configuration options
as the userSettings editor property.
Editor properties minMapHeight and minMapWidth are no longer supported.
Editor method defineLassoedAreaAction has been removed. The lasso feature has been
replaced by the more capable Views technology.
Editor method getAvailableSymbolCollections is no longer supported.
The editor's default image export attributes (width, height, format, etc.) can be specified
in the userSettings property. These attributes
provide default image export values for the store and
exportImage methods.
The behavior and capabilities of the Web SDK server are largely
unchanged, with the following exceptions:
The Rasterizer command line utility is no longer supported. The new Easy Street Draw Editor
SDK provides more comprehensive automation capabilities, including PowerShell support.
The server configuration file supports several new settings:
rasterizerDefaultWidth, rasterizerDefaultHeight,
rasterizerDefaultMargin, rasterizerDefaultImageQuality,
rasterizerDefaultFormat and tempFileAutoDelete.
Server configuration option rasterizeUseGPU is no longer supported.
The functionality of the editor is reduced in Internet Explorer 9 and 10:
The new print feature is not available.
Image import is not supported.
The addMenu method has changed. It now accepts an array
of Objects as its only parameter instead of just an object.
