886.0.1
(Windows/ATE) - A new global font scale factor is available in the Settings..Misc menu and saved in the settings (.ash) file. This scale factor is used in conjunction with the field-level scale factor available in many of the GUI-object commands (such as XCALL MIAMEX,119 and TAB(-10,20)) to give you more control, flexibility (and probably confusion) over font sizing.
The global font scale factor affects all GUI font objects created within A-Shell by your application. (It does not affect fixed pitch text, nor the fonts in the A-Shell menus and dialogs.) The default scale factor of 100 (%) causes A-Shell to scale each GUI font according to the size of the window and the number of rows and columns defined. (Thus, the average GUI character size should be similar to the average fixed pitch character size.) If this seems too big or too small for a particular workstation, window size, locale, or user preference, then just adjust it up or down by a few percentage points.
If you set the global font scale factor to 0, A-Shell will just use the standard GUI font size (like in the menus and dialog boxes), regardless of the Window size. (This is more like typical Windows application.)
The field-level font scale factor should be used mainly just to make the font in individual GUI objects larger or smaller than the others. It is also expressed as a percentage (100% is "normal", and 0 is treated as equivalent to 100%.) So for example, if you want a particular title to use a font twice as big as the others, specify 200 for its scale factor. This will be further adjusted, up or down, based on the global scale factor.
886.0.2
(Windows/ATE) A problem with the ESC key sometimes acting twice when switching between different input modes has been fixed. (The fix, however, breaks an old workaround for an anomaly in AZERTY keyboards where the ESC key doesn't work when the CAPS lock is set. If that is an issue for you, contact us and we will look into an alternate solution.)
886.0.3
(ATE.EXE 3.0.139) A problem with ":S" and/or "DSK0:HOST.LIT" appearing in the first GUI input field after connecting has been resolved.
886.0.4
(Windows/ATE) Efficiency of certain operations that require the bidirectional exchange of data between ATE and the host server has been improved. This seems to be a factor mainly with AIX hosts.
886.0.5
(Windows/ATE) Typeahead now works reasonably well.
886.0.6
(Windows) Fix a problem in which the inner border area of the Window would sometimes not be updated, leaving thin miscolored patches at the edge of the window.
886.0.7
(Windows/ATE) A problem with MIAMEX,131 (remote file lookup) sometimes returning -2 even when ATE was present has been resolved.
