What Was New in Eagle Point 2.3.0

The following items discuss the changes found in this version of Eagle Point Software. Please note that the following sections are organized alphabetically, by module, starting with System level descriptions of VIP Enhancements, General Enhancements and then bug fixes.

Windows 2000/XP User Privileges

For users running Windows 2000, the program must be installed using Administrator privileges in order to properly setup and configure Eagle Point. After installation, individual users must MINIMALLY have "Power User" rights to properly run the software.

Windows XP Professional and Home users can now configure Eagle Point to run under limited account types. During the installation process of the 2002 Q3 2.3.0 CD, XP users have the Support, Images and License paths defaulted to the "All Users" portion of the machine (i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Eagle Point Software\EGPT\Support). This allows any user of any account type to access the supporting Eagle Point files that require read/write capabilities.

Please note that your CAD package may require additional rights that could prohibit the proper use of Eagle Point operating under limited accounts.

What Was New in Eagle Point 2.1.0

The following items discuss the most recent changes found in this version of Eagle Point Software. Please note that the following sections are organized alphabetically, by module, starting with System level descriptions of VIP Enhancements, General Enhancements and then bug fixes.

Windows XP Compatibility

Compatibility testing of Eagle Point 2001/2002 2.1.0 has been performed in the Professional version of Windows XP and to date nothing has been found that impedes the performance or stability of the software. There are a few cosmetic items that will be resolved in future releases, but they do not impair the current functionality. As an example, the Eagle Point help icon does not align with the close icon when using the default "Windows XP" theme, but still operates properly. Also, the software GUI (Graphical User Interface) will not take on the "Windows XP" default theme until a problem with certain edit controls can be resolved.

Formal testing with Windows XP Home will commence after the 2.1.0 release. Due to the similarities between the Professional and Home Editions, it is not anticipated that any unique problems will arise that will prevent the support the Home Edition of Windows XP. If any Windows XP specific problems are identified after the 2.1.0 release, they will be addressed in future maintenance releases.

Also note that not all of the CAD packages Eagle Point runs with are supported in Windows XP. Autodesk has chosen to support Windows XP Professional with AutoCAD 2002, and Bentley's MicroStation V8 is the only version that is supported in Windows XP Professional or Home. Currently, Eagle Point is not supported in MicroStation V8, but support is anticipated with the 2002 Q2 CD. Testing has also been completed on the Eagle Point Graphics Engine in Windows XP Professional.

Novell has yet to release a Netware client for Windows XP Professional. Therefore anyone who is running Eagle Point with the Novell License Manager will have to wait until Novell releases a Netware client for Windows XP Professional.
