MLV 4.1.01 what's new?

Post by jsmcortina »

As per title, I'm offered an auto-update to 4.1.01. What's new in this version?

I looked online but couldn't find a changelog.

A couple of the key changes:
- Scaling to support high dpi screens
- Timeslip data, enter and save to log. 60ft, 660, 1320, etc will be displayed as a yellow line similar to a mark.
- Menu to view file header data.


Also there is an auto zero function, but the menu isn't there. This will automatically set the Time to zero on the 1st occurrence of an event. The thought here is that it is set to an expression that indicates launch occurred, then time will be set to 0 at that point. Also if you load a compare log it will automatically sync the 2 logs on this event.

I was looking for a single logged flag to indicate a launch timer starting independent of what might be used, transbrake, tps, etc. Is there one?

- enter your timeslip data
- go to the position in the log that you launched
set that to 0 time, by right clicking and selecting "Set Current Time to 0" or press CTRL+0

Then there will be yellow vertical lines on the timeslip events, 60ft, 660ft, 1320ft

Can it be used to give a rough estimate of 1/4mile times based on the log or just to show you the points of the 1/4 mile on your logs

It shows you where the points are.

If you want to get a rough idea of 1/4 mile times you can turn on TripFeet under
Calculated Field --> Optional Fields 2

Then from the start point you can see how long it takes to go 1320 feet.
Wheel spin and will be a factor though.
