Highlights
In addition to numerous enhancements, the current release offers the following special features:
Extensions of the debugger
For better readability, the corresponding constants are displayed instead of the previous numerical values when displaying property values. It is now possible to define one or more procedure functions in the debugger settings, that automatically stop the debugger when they are executed.
Export and import of resources in XML format
Dialog / menu and print resources can now be exported and imported in XML format using procedure functions. This makes it easier to track changes to resources and version projects. In addition to XML, conzept 16’s own resource format (rsc) is also supported.
