1.6.0 Beta 3 released - with support for current OSX / macOS versions!

We are happy to announce the first public beta version of the upcoming Wing Helper 1.6.0! 

In this beta test phase, we are seeking to find - with your help - and fix the last remaining bugs and issues before the final official 1.6.0 is released.

Version 1.6.0 Beta 3 can read the files created with previous official versions. The Alpha Test Team already did a great job in making sure that this version is working correctly. However, Beta versions are still in the testing phase, meaning that they still can exhibit unwanted or unexpected behaviour. Please be advised to treat this version with caution and to backup your existing designs before working on them with any Beta version, including this one.

This version introduces the following new functions and fixes the following issues reported with Wing Helper 1.5.0:

  • HOT: OSX BigSur and Monterey support re-introduced
  • Visibility option for single rib combs implemented (right click into the combs table)
  • Visibility option for single spars implemented (right click into the spar table)
  • "90 Degree" button now also working for the half-rib cutters
  • Option "real width" implemented for combs
  • The spar table can not also be undocked ("teared off")
  • Moving of spars up/down within the spar table implemented (right click into the spar table)
  • Zoom improved in the "Single Rib View" on OSX
  • Fix for NGC export: root/tip burn-off swaped for the right wing half
  • Update of all libraries: Qt6.2.2 (Windows: 5.15.2), Boost, Protobuffer
  • Help note added about how to enter the license key
  • Crash fixed in NGC export
  • NGC export with "hidden" sheeting fixed
  • Layout improvement for aileron cutters (LE and TE buttons were placed badly)

As always, 1.6.0 Beta 3 can be downloaded for free from here. If you already have a valid Wing Helper license, you will be able to work with 1.6.0 Beta 3 as if it were an official final release. If you don't own a Wing Helper license yet, you will see the same restrictions with respect to export (DXF, SCAD, PDF, NGC, HOW) as with any officially released version.

This beta version is valid until April 15th 2022. At latest at that date, it will be replaced by either a new beta version, or by the official version 1.6.0, depending on the findings and your feedback.

I am looking forward to hearing from you!

 

Best regards,
