MicroSurvey FieldGenius Updates - dates and features

FieldGenius XG2 Update Dates:

Update October 26th: 2.0.61

GPS tracking speed is improved. All GPS users will see a definite performance increase over the last (2.0.60) update.
Non-integer values entered in the invert edit field would cause a program lock.
The Stake Line program was unavailable if you owned the Basic Module. This program was supposed to be included.

Update September 12th: 2.0.60

DXF Import - even better display of objects
DXF objects can now be selected for staking. If you select a single object, it pops up a Smart Menu to allow for single entity coordination, or you can select entities within a window. All selected entities are automatically coordinated and added to the database.
Lines and arcs are added to the figures database, so you can stake them right away
DXF export - Now you can export your linework in a DXF file for import into most CAD programs.
MicroSurvey Feature File Editor - now included when you install the ActiveSync and Desktop support module. The Feature File Editor will open and use TDS .fea files, so you can start with an existing system and extend it further.
GIS attributes can be saved on all points. With this update, FieldGenius now has the ability to export ArcView SHP files directly from the data collector. The File -> Export menu now includes 'SHP Files'. FieldGenius automatically creates the index files for you, and since we moved to a .dbf format for our main coordinate database, SHP file support was an obvious and easy extension to the program.
The FBK export program has been improved to export the entire coordinate database.
The program now creates a Staking List. This allows you to select points on the screen and add them to a stake list. When you start the Staking program, you can advance automatically through the list of points. The Project Manager now displays the staking list for editing and checking.

Update August 12th: 2.0.57

DXF Import improved - new objects are displayed and DXF files are automatically reloaded when you open a job file
DXF lines, arcs, points, polylines, and block inserts can now be selected and automatically coordinated either by single selection or by selecting with a window
Licensing improved - now the same Pocket PC version will run on iPAQ 3600/3700/3800/3900/5400/2210/2215 versions, plus Dell Axiom or other Pocket PC's that have a Compact Flash slot. We now license based upon the CF serial number.
Multiple Views - views can now be stored and recalled from the Project Manager
Last View Restored - the screen view is saved when you exit a job and restored automatically when you reload the job
Improvements to Smart Menus - small improvements make the Smart Menus easier to use
Total Station instrument options are displayed automatically when you first select a model
GPS fixes - new antennas added to the database, small changes to make dialogs fit better, transformation improvements for special cases
