Enhancements/Changes:

• File-Open - Program now automatically resets calculations if a photometric file is replaced during open as a result of  being missing or corrupt 
• Setup - Removed the following from supported OS's: Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Server 2000 R2 and Windows 8. In other words, can no longer install on these OS's

Bug Fixes:

• Reports - Program will crash when attempting to insert a Saved Page containing a legacy Luminaire Schedule
• Reports - Program crashes when attempting to open a report containing a legacy Luminaires Schedule
• CalcPtsAP - Removed minimize dialog option which would make the program appear to be frozen
• Revised code to prevent loading photometric files in existing files where the complete file is not valid which can lead to additional issues when attempting to update definitions using that photometric file
• Define Luminaire - Attempting to view a photometric file that is stored in a non-mapped network folder (e.g., \\Server\PhotometrcData) causes the program to crash
• Luminaire Labels have an extra blank line that can interfere with luminaire selection. To apply this fix to labels in existing files (remove the blank line), select the Luminaire Label command and click Ok!

Version 20.4 Rev. 4 - 02-AUG-21:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Luminous Box Offset in Z is slightly off (0.005 ft.) when the luminous dimension in the associated photometric file is zero (problem occurs in Smart Symbols). Workaround: Open the Luminous Box or Symbol dialog from Define Luminaire and click Ok
• CalcPs-Glare Rating - Edit and Specify Additional observers causes the program to crash (after clicking Ok). Applies to to v20 only
• CalcPts-Glare Rating - Edit and Specify New observers may result in no visible grids. Added coded to ensure at least grid is visible. Workaround: Change visibility in Project Manager
• Schedules - Fields with all text in upper case may overrun cell, increasing cell width does not help if text wraps. Note: This fix slightly increases the overall width of all schedules
• Define Luminaire - Replacing photometric file does not reset calculation under certain circumstances

Version 20.3 Rev. 0 - 14-JUL-21:

Bug Fixes:

• 'RTE 76 - Path not found' during startup (missing Schedules_v20 subfolders in setup)
• Define Luminaire - Pressing Enter in Label field causes the last character in the string to be removed
• Define Luminaire - Changing field and then tabbing skips the next field (double tab)
• 'RTE 76 - Path not found' during startup when attempting to migrate Schedules. Problem occurs when legacy Schedules folder does not contain normal subfolders (ModelModeSchedules and PageBuilderSchedules)
• Define Luminaire - Collections containing invalid filename characters (e.g., / \ ? *, etc.) are not migrated and cause migration process to terminate. Note: There is no way to rename Collections in v19 (i.e., there's is no workaround)
• Define Luminaire - Manually reordering definitions does not stick (resorted on entry)

Version 20.2 Rev. 0 - 08-JUL-21:

  • Legacy schedules mapped to the revised folder structure (and updated with v20 fields) during first startup
    
  • Increased width of dialog and made vertically resizable
  • Implemented text wrapping for headers and field values:
    • Text that exceeds cell width is broken into multiple rows as needed and row size adjusted accordingly
    • Possible break points (in order): Space " ", Non-Breaking Space (used with attributes), Dash " - ", Underscore " _ ", Right Parenthesis " ) ", Right Bracket " ] " and Right Brace " } ". If no break point is found, text is chopped
  • Increased text buffer to mitigate text overflowing into adjacent cell
  • Default width for all columns that were > 32 are now 32 (e.g., Description column width was 80, is now 32). This is a result of text wrapping
  • Modified Display Names (more verbose) and/or Width for several fields (as a result of text wrapping)
  • Added Field Groups to: Luminaire Location, Expanded Luminaire Location and Luminaire Schedules:
    •  Field Groups are 'connected' and function as a group when selecting/deselecting and reordering (Alt+Up/Down). For example: Insertion Point Coordinates includes: InsPtX, InsPtY and InsPtZ
    • Width can only be set/changed for group header, subfields are automatically sized accordingly based on the number of subfields. Width for group header is always a multiple of the number of subfields

    • New Field: Photometric Center Z. All Photometric Center Z values for each type are shown, if number of unique values > 20 then values are displayed as a range (e.g. 19.5 to 22.5)
    • New Fields: Attributes. Includes factory and user specified attributes:
      • Attributes Field Names are preceded with {Att} to distinguish from <UserField>

• Removed unused components from setup to prevent setup reconfiguration during startup after switching users

Bug Fixes:

• Roadway calculations - May get a 'RTE - Subscript out of range' error when specifying a grid that does NOT have Veiling Luminance (e.g. AS 1158.2-2005-Cat P-Roadway) when a grid has already been specified that does include Veiling Luminance (e.g. AS 1158.2-2005)
• Isocandela plot may not be scaled properly in File-Select or Smart Symbol Select dialogs. Plot appears correctly once loaded into Define Luminaire defined (v19.9 only)

Enhancements/Changes:

• Page Builder/Page Builder Reports is now called, or know as, Reports

Bug Fixes:

• Corrected UGR values, from which Max UGR is derived, are over-corrected (corrected twice) yielding pessimistic results (in most cases)

• Max. UGR is displayed as 1.#INF when luminous dimensions result in zero luminous area (invalid shape)
• Max. UGR may be negative when candela in offending zones is extremely low
• Tools-View Only Mode - Checkmark is not visible when toggled on

Version 19.7  Rev. 5 - 15-MAY-19:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Maximum UGR (Unified Glare Rating) added to Luminaire Classification. Notes: 
  • This only applies to luminaries defined or redefined under this version (or greater). In order to see Max UGR for existing luminaire definitions, they will need to redefined
  • Max UGR is not backward compatible (i.e. will not be visible when file is opened in previous versions, including Luminaire Schedule) 

• Max UGR added as selectable field in Luminaire Schedule:

• Max UGR is the maximum UGR value from the correct UGR Table. This is the theoretical maximum based on the assumptions used to generate the table of value. it may not be the actual maximum for non-symmetrical arrangements, very low reflectances or very large rooms. More information on UGR Tables in the Photometric Toolbox Help. Limitations:
  • UGR is not applicable for completely indirect lighting systems or luminous ceilings
  • UGR is not applicable; for point sources (no luminous dimensions)
  • UGR cannot be calculated for luminaries that no light emitted in the offending zones (approx. 55-degrees and above). Example: Spot floodlight
• Obtrusive Light-Compliance Test - Modified AS/NZS 4282:2019 standard, For zones A0-A4, Luminous Intensity Per Luminaire was moved into Luminous Intensity At Vertical Planes
• Roadway Standards - Option added to Semi-Cylindrical Illuminance to exclude luminaries behind the meter. Current;y, there are no standards requiring this option

Bug Fixes:

• CAD Export - ACI colors not reflected in layer table (always True Color)
• There can be disconnect between Template Visibility and CAD Export and Render Overlay. Problem occurs when bulk visibility changes in Project Manager

Version 19.6  Rev. 9 - 17-APR-19:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Obtrusive Light-Compliance Test - Added support for AS/NZS 4282:2019

• Obtrusive Light-Compliance Test - Interface changes: Moved Application Conditions after Lighting Zone, increased width of most input boxes, increased Standards drop-down to accommodate all standards
• Tools-System Settings-Units/Precision - Added 'Aiming Points in Expanded Luminaire Schedule'. Aiming points in an Expanded Luminaire Schedule are calculated using the aiming angles (this is necessary to handle individual locations in an arrangement or group). Calculating can sometimes lead to floating point rounding errors. This new parameter allows to set the precision to overcome these errors

Bug Fixes:

• Page Builder-Viewport  - View Type may reset to Extents when opening Properties dialog. Problem occurs when you have a mix of Viewports attached to Viewpoints and Viewports not attached to Viewpoints
• Views may inadvertently get reset after exiting Project Manager. Problem occurs when setting Views (e.g.  CalcPts-PtsView ) via pop-up menu. Problem does not occur when setting View via drop-down
• If AutoSave kicks in while adding a Room with 'Specify Calculation Points For Room' selected, the CalcPts-AP dialog may not appear (i.e. grid is not added)
• Frozen Projects (set via Project Manager) may cause the skydome (daylighting) to be incorrectly sized and located
• Obtrusive Light-Compliance Test - Certain fields may be reset (setting not retained) when the dialog is reopened (e.g. Description)

Version 19.5  Rev. 17 - 15-MAR-19:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Increased buffer around frame in Select Luminaire Label dialog to make it easier to resize
• Locate Luminaire - No longer resetting MH after completing locate command. MH is now set to last MH used (i.e. if MH is changed in the process of locating, this becomes the default MH for the next locate command)
• Template visibility behaviors modified - If template visibility is disabled via Toolkit (globally) and template visibility is enabled for selected templates via Project Manager, template visibility is enabled to ensure templates are visible for selected locations in Model Overlay and CAD Export. Note: This change only applies to files modified (template visibility) under this version
• Add-Luminaire-Location - Hint about dynamic aiming added
• Modify-Luminaire-Reaim/Reorient - Hint about dynamic aiming added
• Roadway Optimizer - SnapTo is now enabled when placing the exported layout in Model Mode
• Roadway Standards, Roadway Optimizer, CalcPts-Roadway - Increased Standards and R-Table drop-downs to accommodate up to 15 items before scrolling is necessary (was 8)
• Added new roadway standard: 'ANSI-IES RP-8-18 Roadway'. Replaces IES RP-8-14. Note: The new standard is the same as RP-8-18, only the name has changed
• Added new roadway standard: 'ANSI-IES RP-8-18 Tunnel'. Replaces IES RP-22-2011. Note: The new standard is the same as RP-22-2011, only the name has changed
• Added new roadway standard: 'ANSI-IES RP-8-18 Roadway (Lv - Exclude LOS Luminaires)'. Same as 'ANSI-IES RP-8-18 Roadway' except luminaries in observers line of sight (LOS) are not considered. The Veiling Luminance formula starts to fall apart as luminaires approach the observers LOS. Note: This exclusion is common is most international standards:

• Added new roadway standard: 'ANSI-IES RP-8-18 Tunnel (Lv - Exclude LOS Luminaires)'. Same as 'ANSI-IES RP-8-18 Tunnel' except luminaries in observers line of sight (LOS) are not considered. The Veiling Luminance formula starts to fall apart as luminaires approach the observers which can be more prevalent in tunnels that are not perfectively straight. Note: This exclusion is common is most international standards 
• Removed default user folder creation (Documents\AGi32) from startup due to potential conflict with OneDrive. If OneDrive is enabled, may get the following message during startup (this change prevents this from happening):

Bug Fixes:

• Program crashes when rotating photometry in Define Luminaire with certain photometric files. Issue addressed in v19.4A released on 26-DEC-18 (silent release)
• Import CAD File - Textures cannot be applied with texture mapping IF CAD file was opened by drag-and-drop (same behavior exists in earlier versions). Workaround: Open CAD file via File-Import-CAD
• File-CAD-Import - Program may crash (close) if the CAD import dialog is closed while the CAD Viewer is updating
• Potential problem with z-coordinate and MH values when placing a luminaire in Plan View after crossing over an active Elevation View
• Obtrusive Grid - Label each line segment option does not work properly
• Roadway Calcs - Actual and virtual luminaires (roadway contributors) in LOS > 0 and <0.1 are being considered in the Veiling Luminance (Lv) calculations resulting in unrealistically high values
• Corrected odd behavior when changing orient/aim parameters while a Luminaire-Locate command is active
• Obtrusive Grid - Labeling each Line segment does not work properly (multiple labels at each line end point)
• Roadway Calculations - Luminaire (and roadway contributors) are still being consider in the Veiling Luminance calculation if even standard excluded luminaires in LOS (>= 0.1 to <= 1.5 degrees). Problem occurs with luminaires located > 0 and < 0.1 degrees LOS
• Roadway Calculations - The observer position for Veiling Luminance may not be correct in some cases (e.g. on curb line instead of in roadway or lane). May occur with the following standards and drivers side left: ABNT, CIE and BSEN
• Roadway Calculations - In some case, TI is not consider the worse case lane luminance. May occur with the following standards when there more then one in drivers direction: ABNT, CIE and BSEN
• Page Builder - Reduced the tabs required before scrolling is enabled (from 12 to 10). In some cases, can't access tabs beyond the form width
• In some cases, when importing luminaire definitions from one AGI into another, the luminous box may shift (e.g. indicates insertion point is top but is actually bottom as a result of the import process)
• Virtual Meter is 'seeing through' the transparent side of single-sided surfaces

Version 19.4  Rev. 15 - 04-DEC-18:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Added check to prevent creating entity names with brackets ([ ]). This change prevents creating invalid entity names, it does not fix invalid entity names
• Tools-Settings-Advanced - Changed 'Multi-Processor Support' to 'Multi-Thread Support'
• CAD Import - Improved support for MTEXT
• Render Mode - Anti-aliasing is now applied to parallel projected views (was ignored in previous releases)
• Render-Viewpoints - Can now have unique Model Overlay settings for each Viewpoint (Model Overlay settings were applied to all Viewpoints in previous versions). Note: Using different overlay settings for different Viewpoints can have a significant impact on performance when switching between Viewpoints. Only one overlay is stored in memory at a time. Consequently, the overlay gets recreated whenever the overlay settings change which can take several seconds

Bug Fixes:

• Duplicates luminaires can be created when using the Luminaire-Change Height-S/W commands. Problem occurs when cursor is in motion when completing the selection process. Fixed in 19.3B (released on 23-AUG-18)
• CAD Import - Mat get an invalid file extension error if file extension (DWG or DXF) is capitalized. Workaround: Rename file with lower case extension
• Page Builder - May get an 'Unable to Save Report - Invalid Report Name'' message regardless of specified name. Actually a permissions issue; program is trying to check filename by creating in Program Files folder instead of the actual folder in ProgramData. Workaround: Change permissions for Program Files (x86)\Lighting Analysts to allow full control
• Background Images dialog, ESC does not close dialog
• Scene Manager - Deleting all scenes does not reset channels for luminaires back to 'unassigned' resulting in the luminaire being assigned to a channel that not longer exists
• Define Luminaire - Making a non-calculational change (e.g. description or tag) resets the render image
• File-Import-AGI - Importing a file with different units does not work properly (e.g. imported a metric file into an imperial units file)
• Define Luminaire - Rotating photometry to conform to IES Standards (e.g. Eulumdat file) does not rotate the luminous box dimensions
• Define Luminaire - Symbol scaling is erratic when enabling/disabling 'Rotate Photometry To Conform To IES Standards'
• Define Luminaire - Rotated Eulumdat files (as a result of 'Rotate To Conform To IES Standards) use a standard web density and may lose resolution.  Resolution now uses the closest 2.5-degree angular increment based on the average increment used in the original file
• May get the following error when exiting Render Mode - 'Unable to load images(s) into job file (may be invalid bitmap images)'. Problem occurs with parallel view images when anti-aliasing is applied
• File-Export - Last exported version type (e.g. RealDWG 2013) is not being retained 
• File-Export - Program crashes when attempting to export a blank drawing. Workaround: Don't do this!

• Find CalcPts command - Option added to remove points found. Note: Locked points cannot be removed using this option
• Render-Display Properties - Moved Grayscale/Pseudo Color Metric next to Grayscale and Pseudo Color options to clarify Color/Metric:

• Page Builder-Create Report - Changed 'Viewpoints' to 'Model Viewpoints' and 'Render Views' to Render Viewpoints' to clarify
• AGi32 v19 (and greater) can access Photometric Toolbox v2.0 (and greater) if installed and licensed. In other words, AGi32 v19 (and greater) can NOT access Toolbox <v2.0. Can still use Photometric Toolbox outside of AGi32
• New command: Tools-View Only Mode (toggle). Normal operation for an inactive or expired installation is View Only Mode. If you plan on sharing a file with someone who is operating in this mode, this command will allow you to see what your project looks like and it behaves in View Only Mode
• Can now override the color/reflectance (C/R) of a texture (by default, C/R is derived from the texture). C/R can be changed AFTER selecting a texture. C/R is reset if the texture is modified (reloaded). Note C/R override is NOT backward compatible!

Bug Fixes:

• When Translating Origin and manually entering the coordinates, the mouse cursor moves to the extents of the visible monitor space in the direction of the coordinates typed and remains there when the Translate Origin process is complete
• Roadway Standard in Roadway Calculation dialog inadvertently reverts to '_Converted-Illuminance Only'
• Page Builder Imageports do not always update when needed. Problem occurs when non-calculation related changes are made that affect the Model Overlay IF there are one or more Render Viewpoints with Model Overlay enabled
• Page Builder Imageports may not reflect the associated Render Viewpoint IF Model Overlay is enabled for selected Viewpoints as opposed to all Viewpoints
• When calculating from within Page Builder, data in Viewports may disappear. Workaround: Select another page and then return to the page in question or exit and return to Page Builder Mode. Both of these will force the Viewports to be redrawn 
• Changing Page Builder paper units by changing page size (e.g. mm to inches) causes the program to crash
• Render view properties of last captured Viewport are applied to the default view when you return to Render Mode
• Viewport/Imageport label font may not be correct. The last font used in Model Mode may be applied to label of first Viewport and first Imageport instead of font used in actual report (dynamic report)
• Page Builder-Report Summary Information - Entering more than 10 lines of description in the Company Information section will cause the program to crash when you click Ok
• File-Import-AGi32 - Dynamic templates are not created for imported luminaire locations. Workaround - Toggle templates off/on
• 'RTE 9 - Subscript out of range' can occur with certain luminaire commands. Problem occurs when dynamic templates are on and templates have not been updated (difficult to reproduce). Affected commands: Copy-S/W, Move-SamePts-S/W, Move-SameAngles-S/W, Move and Orient. Workaround - Toggle templates off/on before using any of these commands
• Roadway Optimizer - Check for consistent SP Ratio not working correctly in some cases (fails indicating all luminaires must have same SP Ratio when they do and even when Mesopic is not being calculated)

Version 18.3  Rev. 2 - 03-AUG-17:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Render-Tools - Flatten Drawing Entities command is visible (should not be)

Bug Fixes:

• May get a "Subscript out of range. Occurred in: Mod-Lum_Move_SameAngles_SWA" error when attempting to move luminaires under certain circumstances. Problem can occur when multiple luminaires are located at the same coordinates and templates are enabled
• Problem modifying a single luminaire from a location where two or more luminaires are located (same coordinates) and templates are on (visible). Behavior and commands affected::
  • Lum-Copy-S,W - All locations are selected, copied location(s) may not be one(s) selected
  • Lum-Move-Same Angles/Points-S,W - All locations are selected, moved location(s) may  not be one(s) selected, remaining locations are removed (cause of Subscript out of range error above)
• May get the following error when attempting to transfer entities to another project: "Error: Field 'project.ProjectName' can't be zero=length string. Occurred in: Project_TransferEntity-SWA". Error occurs when doing multiple transfers and previous transfer has not had time to fully complete
• CalcPts normal vector for some surfaces may not be correct when doing a Daylight Annual Simulation (Licaso). Problem occurs when the first point in a non-horizontal grid is removed due to the shape of the surface
• Page Builder - Viewport and Imageport label properties (font, font color, font properties) are not propagated to dynamic generated pages nor when page is copied

Version 18.2  Rev. 14 - 05-JUL-17:

Enhancements/Changes:

• Mesopic Luminance added to available roadway metrics (select via Roadway Standards). Currently only selected for one standard: CIE-140-2000_TN-007-2017
• New roadway standard added: CIE-140-2000_TN-007-2017. This standard includes Mesopic Luminance
• Roadway Optimizer - Can optimize on Mesopic Luminance (if available in the selected standard)
• New roadway standard added: BSEN 13201-3:2015. This standard includes a Veiling Luminance formula to handle luminaires >= 0.1 to <= 1.5 degrees from the observers line of sight (LOS) .The formula came from CIE 146
• Roadway Standards - Added 'Standard + CIE 146' option to available Veiling Luminance Formulas (used in BSEN 13210-3:2015 standard). If selected, the Veiling Luminance formula specified in BSEN 13210-3:2015 for luminaires >= 0.1 to <=1.5  degrees LOS is used instead of the standard Lv formula. Note: Most standards exclude luminaires in this range (and >60 degrees LOS) due to issues with the standard Lv formula 
• Roadway Standards-Veiling Luminance Formula - 'Limit Luminaires' changed to 'Exclude Luminaires (LOS)' and split into '>= 0.1 to <=1.5' and '> 60 degrees':

• Removed roadway standard: SAASTAN (AS 1158.2-2005). No longer supported
• Files containing Mesopic roadway grids are NOT backward compatible
• File without Mesopic roadway grids are backward compatible to v14 (i.e. not compatible with version <=2.3)

• Roadway standard 'SAASTAN (AS 1158.2-2005)' removed. Note: This standard is NOT removed from older versions. Consequently, it may still be available in this version but is no longer supported!
• If Page Builder (PB) tab is selected and the PB Report dialog is cancelled, the PG tab stays selected even though still in Model Mode
• Veiling Luminance observer position (roadway) is not correct in certain cases:
  • One observer per roadway, across and along position dynamic - Observer is located along curb instead of in the roadway. Affects: ABNT and CIE-140 standards
  • One observer per lane, across and along position dynamic - Observer is static relative to grid instead of dynamic. Affects BSEN 13201 standard
• Switching from Full Radiosity to Direct Only calculation method may render Page Builder inaccessible (error message) if Render Mode and Page Builder were accessed prior to the making the change
