+ | |||
+ | + This release contains fixes for problems in the RDA to MARC Export. | ||

+ | __Release 170429__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a bug that caused an A/V when using the Data options to change the preferred vocabulary language. Serendipitously, | ||

+ | |||
+ | __Release 170401__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a typo that prevented MARC Tag 362 from mapping to RDA. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes some logic that prevented modeOfIssuance from being set to ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Changes the way the EI is restored when switching between windows. The main difference (apart from improved stability) is that if a filter is set in the EI, and you navigate away from the EI, when you return to the EI, the filter will be cleared. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Note: attempting to restore the EI to its last state has always been problematic in RIMMF. Its a design issue: the EI is used for too many purposes. We will fix that in RIMMF4. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + We've added documentation to the wiki for [[howto: | ||

+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170330__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fix for missing main entry heading when exporting an Expression to MARC | ||
+ | |||
+ | + A bunch of internal changes, made to make the program rely more on element Ids than element names (which as we have seen of late are subject to change) | ||

+ | __Release 170305__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Adds the option to include or exclude empty text rows from the new Excel View output option | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170304__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Adds 'Excel View' to the Options menu of the entity record form. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you select this option, RIMMF makes a .CSV file of the current entity record and asks Windows to open it (using whatever app is defined for this type of file). | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170301__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + The 'WEMI Links' panel at the bottom of the entity form: | ||
+ | - might repeat a ' | ||
+ | - might show links to Works where an Agent appeared as a Subject--Fixed | ||
+ | |||
+ | + On the R-Tree, the option to Export record was moved to the form top menu (part of more general campaign to clean-up and standardize the forms) | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Added the new Timespan entity to the templates and main menu | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Added an option (to the Data Options|Entity form) that modifies how the list of elements is organized when one presses < | ||
+ | - If 'Show all elements' | ||
+ | - If ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Changed the default diacritic menu to ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | This change was based on feedback from our musical colleagues, who were unable to find the music sharp/flat signs in the current options. The new set of diacritics is based on a scan of many millions of MARC records, from which we pulled out the most frequently occurring UTF-8 codepoints. | ||
+ | (And of course, the music signs are among them) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170205__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a problem with 'Type of Unit' in the default template for Manifestation | ||

+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170204__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Automates discarding an unhandled import if a new import is initiated | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170203__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Add support for Related Corporate Body (which was missing when importing a Corporate Body authority) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170201__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Changes the way MARC 028 fields are imported in music; with a few exceptions, they will now be imported as IdentifierForTheManifestation. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a bug that caused Agents to import more than once when the same agent in MARC had multiple relationship designators. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release allows the entry of unlinked text into the primary WEMI relationships | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 170101__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release fixes a number of bugs, some fairly obvious, and some that would be apparent when going thru the tutorials on the wiki. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **If you have a release dated between 161025 and the present, please update.** | ||
+ | |||
+ | After updating, the tutorials, among other things, should work as designed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | We apologize for the problems. We have been working on a new version of RIMMF and neglected to thoroughly check the last bunch of RIMMF3 releases. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161223__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes an error message that should not have popped up when the program starts | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161220__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + When a MARC record encoded for MARC-8 is dragged and dropped onto RIMMF, the program will now try to auto-upgrade the encoding to UTF-8 | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release includes a first try at checking Variant Access Points for a match during an import; currently the check is limited to Works whose AAPs contain both a Name and a Title. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Kind of directly related to the above, when a bib record is imported from MARC and the 245 Indicator 2 is not 0, RIMMF will now automatically generate a Variant title', | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161202__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + IdentifierForTheManifestation is now allowed as an optional AAP component | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161201__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Adds a rudimentary Merge record tool. To use it, goto the EI, select two records that need to be merged (must be same entity) and right-click. At the end of the process, the merged-to record is popped up. If you want to completely undo the process, goto the Edit menu and select Undo merge (requires restart). | ||
+ | |||
+ | + A few mapping improvements. Better support for ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161122__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a bug that caused an infinite loop (symptom: opening an RTree in a small EI) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161120__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release adds the following performance improvements | ||
+ | * Building the EI faster (as much as an order of magnitude) for large data folders | ||
+ | * RTree ' | ||
+ | * Rtree digs no longer hang; RIMMF will tell you if its time to 'dig; something else | ||
+ | * Using F5 (Relationship menu) no longer hangs (because it is building a separate link-to menu); now this option connects directly to (a filtered view of) the EI | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161101__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes some data problems introduced in one or more of the ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161027__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release partly fixes a problem with the 'Set record prefix' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161025__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + When importing a manifestation that was already present in an EI, the program would (often? always?) fail to match the associated Expression and/or Work if they were present, and present the user with an RTree dialog so they could import the latter. | ||
+ | This update remedies that behavior--if a manifestation being imported matches an existing one, the program will pop-up the "This record is already in your EI" dialog, and the Work and Expression (and anything else) will be discarded. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161024__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Adds program captions for Italian to RIMMF (the Italian translation of the RDA Element sets is in progress) | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Modifies the captions for the identifier menu (F5) slightly so that they better support translation | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Adds logic to remove parentheses when importing Manufacture statement data from MARC | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a few basic problems in exporting an RDA Work to MARC | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 161003__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release updates the following elements and vocabularies: | ||
+ | * RDA Aspect Ratio Designation | ||
+ | * RDA Base Material | ||
+ | * RDA Cartographic Data Type | ||
+ | * RDA Generation | ||
+ | * RDA Layout | ||
+ | * RDA Production Method | ||
+ | * RDA Reduction Ration Designation | ||
+ | * RDA Scale Designation | ||
+ | |||
+ | We have not updated RDA Extent to the new RDA Carrier Extent Unit. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The goal of the update is to keep support for old versions which have been used by RIMMF3 (whether now deprecated, never published, or whatever), while updating our templates to reference the new versions of these vocabularies. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160923__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Updates TMQ templates to reflect changes in RDA Registry release 2.5.2 | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a problem that prevented Windows 10 installations from automatically updating the program tables after installing a new version of RIMMF | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160920__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Test of RDA Registry release 2.5.2 | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160801__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes an error in the elements table: Music (Work) should be a subproperty of Complemented By (Work) | ||
+ | |||
+ | + No changes to the program itself | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160702__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Added a ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160602__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a problem where RIMMF was unable to determine the Content Type, etc., when importing MARC records without the 336, etc., tags. | ||
+ | (This problem was introduced by 160601; it isn't present in 160415 and earlier). | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160601__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Changed the mapping from MARC for Tag 505 from ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Note: this is the first published update since 160415 | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160522__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release changes some of the shortcut keys used in RIMMF. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In each case, the change involves a simplification, | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160520__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a couple of small mapping issues | ||
+ | - abbreviations in MARC 300 that were repeated caused duplicate RDA elements. Fixed | ||
+ | - if a MARC 245 contains ' / ' but no $c, RIMMF now adds the $c before parsing out the title into RDA elements | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Removes the aggregate statement 'Title and Resposibility' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160518__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a bug in an internal DB routine that may result in erroroneous AAPs after importing a record set. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Removes ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160510__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + When viewing records in turtle format, RIMMF generated filenames with the wrong file extension (.nt instead of .ttl). Fixed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Added an option to export entity records to RDF using the RDA unconstrained element set. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160501__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Moved the menu option 'New template for ...' to its own section on the main menu because new users found it easy to confuse 'New record' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Duplicated the option to show the list of editing function keys/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Added a ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Removed ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Note: A suggestion was made at the Selma-athon that we should offer an option to Tile open entity record windows. Window management is a particular issue during an X-Athon, with everyone working on a small laptop screen. But after looking into this, I decided it wasn't the best solution: tiling re-sizes every window on the desktop, which means the user will then have to spend time re-sizing them back. By the way, tiling (and more) is supported natively by windows: right-click on the Task Bar and you will see 3 or 4 different options to arrange your desktop windows. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160430__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This release adds a RIMMF element labelled 'Title And Responsibility' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This releasse removes ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + A few minor changes have been made to the ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160415__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a problem that might occur after changing the program language: if followed by an action that required RIMMF to restart itself, the change would be lost. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + When launched from a modal form, a popup dialog might appear behind the form, causing the program to appear to be locked up; the bad behavior is random and may affect one installation but not another; this update identifies situations where this issue might occur and changes the method used to generate the popup (which appears to solve the problem) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160403__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a backward compatibility issue with the uri we used (in the past) for the Language of Expression value | ||
+ | |||

+ | //Note: This behavior is not modeled on the RDA Registry. But RIMMF needs a way to join a ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes three problems where the current version of RIMMF operates differently than described in the tutorials: | ||
+ | |||
+ | In tutorial #2, RIMMF did not automatically make the backlink from Author to the Work. Fixed | ||
+ | |||
+ | In tutorial #3, RIMMF mistook an Expression for a Work! Fixed. (This was caused by a typo in the changes made to ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | In tutorial #7, RIMMF matched the author even though the MARC record being imported lacked the author' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a bug where a resource was freed and then accessed again, causing an access violation. (The symptom would be to run consecutive tasks that each depended on an unzip operation; eg. ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a minor annoyance whereby changing the preferred program language would mess up the font of the status bar | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Release 160331__ | ||
+ | |||
+ | + This update includes RDA Registry version 2.4.3 (and also includes a couple of omissions in RIMMF re: RDA Registry version 2.4.2) | ||
+ | |||
+ | + Fixes a problem with the ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | + The option to change the preferred program language was reset each time the program closed. Fixed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | + When changing language and label options, the confirmation message was not very accurate. Fixed. | ||
