---------------------------
Version 7.0.10 - 29 Jul 2009
---------------------------
* Fixed, Error in Dynamic > Transits & Progressive list, Void Of Course Moon
    for Yr 1965 and Yr 1989. Error Subscript out of range occur when Moon
    stepping into the next sign and if there is No aspects, no events
* Fixed, Error in Dynamic > Animate Page, MultiWheel Chart. Error Subscript
    out of range if any page under MultiWheel topics are selected, when
    one chart is first highlighted on the "Calculated Charts" list

---------------------------
Version 7.0.9 - 23 Jan 2008
---------------------------
* Added, new asteroid ephemeris files for 2003 EL61 --> Haumea and
    2005 FY9 --> Makemake, now using their new assigned names
* Improved, asteroid ephemeris file for Sedna, which updated the Sedna name by
    removing the older discovery name next to Sedna
* Improved, asteroid files Centaurs.ast and NewPlan.ast updated for the new
    asteroid files and names
* Improved, extended the Dynamic > Real Time Clock feature so that you can now
    produce multiple "cloned" real time clock screens, all "ticking over"
    together. The first real time clock is the usual one for your location but
    after that, this latest change allows you to open more real time clock
    screens via Dynamic > Real Time Clock. Each additional real time clock
    window "inherits" some details from the currently highlighted chart on the
    "Calculated Charts" list, like Place, Country, Timezone, House System, Zodiac
    and Coordinates. With this in mind, you can now more easily create a real
    time clock screen for different locations, like Sydney, London and New York,
    all displaying the local time at those locations with all screens
    "ticking over" together. Depending on the chart that is highlighted on the
    "Calculated Charts" list, you can create real time clocks for both geocentric
    and heliocentric coordinates or use tropical and sidereal zodiacs or even
    different house systems, for comparison purposes. This feature is most likely
    better suited to computers that have more screen "real estate", that is, a
    computer that has more than one monitor attached or where there is already a
    large monitor attached to a computer. Having this extra screen space allows
    you to position these multiple real time clock screens on any part of the
    screen space available to you
* Improved, New Chart Entry, changed the lookup logic such that if a place like
    "London, Canada" appears in the recently used file then it automatically
    updates the Country, TZ, Lat and Long textboxes as usual but if the user
    overwrites the Country textbox, entering say "UK", and tabs or clicks off
    it, a new atlas lookup is now done. Previously, tabbing or clicking off the
    Country textbox, after having entered another country, put "Canada" back if
    you had entered "UK"
* Improved, New Chart Entry, if a user enters a placename into the "Place" textbox
    but then clicks on the "OK" button because the user sees that the Country they
    want is already showing, a warning message is now displayed and the user taken
    back to the Place textbox. This action prevents a possible place lookup
    problem where the Timezone, Latitude and Longitude may not have been updated
    for the Place just entered thus resulting in an incorrect calculated chart.
    This problem can occur because the atlas auto. lookup feature is only triggered
    when the user either TABs or clicks off the "Country" textbox
* Improved, Calendar, the phase of the Moon that was displayed/printed was being
    shown as it is viewed in the southern hemisphere. Now, if the chart the
    calendar is based on is located in the northern hemisphere then the phase of
    the moon is displayed/printed as it is viewed in the northern hemisphere
* Improved, Animate, Events button, show Auto apply checkbox as ticked by default
* Improved, Animate BiWheel, when both a natal chart and an event chart are
    opened (or entered) and added to the Calculated Charts list and the natal
    chart only is highlighted and Dynamic > Animate BiWheel is selected, the
    resulting screen displays the natal plus current transits for the natal place.
    If you clicked on the "Charts" button and, for the Outer Wheel, selected the
    opened event chart displayed in the "Base Charts" list, it loaded the new
    chart name and place details but the date and time was not changed causing
    the planet positions on the outer wheel to remain the same. Now, the event
    chart's date and time are loaded thus causing the outside wheel to update
    the planetary positions to the new date and time
* Improved, Animate Wheels, when a user clicks on the "Charts" button, the wheel
    that is highlighted is now the outermost wheel instead of the inner wheel.
    This change improves the wheel to assign since most changes are to the
    outermost wheel, especially for the Animate BiWheel
* Improved, Returns, changed "Precessed" to "Prec. Corr." on the
    "Advanced Return Selections" screen
* Improved, Dynamic Events, on the list of dynamic events, if you click on the
    "View Chart" button after first clicking on a particular event, a chart would
    be displayed and the event chart(s) would be added to the "Calculated Charts"
    list. The action of adding the chart(s) to the Calculated Charts list would
    also highlight the latest chart added so that back on the Dynamic Events list
    if you click on the "New Report" button to run a different report for the
    same natal chart, you had to re-highlight the natal chart as the
    "Dynamic Radix Chart" because the highlight would now be on the new chart
    added and so a new Dynamic report might now be based on the wrong chart. The
    latest change now ensures that when you click on the "View Chart" button that
    the current selected "Dynamic Radix Chart" remains highlighted even though
    new charts are added to the list enabling a user to consistently run new
    dynamic reports using the same "Dynamic Radix Chart" and without needing
    to re-highlight that chart
* Improved, Half Aspect Grid, change angle display on aspect grid so that it
    displays the angle the faster planet is away from the slower planet after
    the last conjunction, increasing the angle from 0 to 360
* Updated, ACS atlas, updated the atlas files to the latest version for the new
    time zone changes in Australia, Argentina and Sri Lanka
* Updated Built-In Help system documentation adding information on
    Toggle Coordinates, Chart Clone, Half Aspect Grid > Grid Settings and multiple
    Real Time Clock features
* Fixed, Chinese New Year report, using 20 Jan 2009 the View > Page Topic Index >
    General > Chinese Year & Lunar Mansions report was showing the Year of the Ox
    instead of changing to the Year of the Ox on the 26 Jan 2009
* Fixed, Electional Search, when two planets conjuncting the Asc were being tested
    but one of the planets had a NOT statement, that is, run a report of when one
    planet is conjunct the Asc but not the other, incorrect results occurred
* Fixed, Electional Search, if a condition selected was "Not PlanetA Any Aspect
    PlanetB", it was found that this condition gave results when it should not
    have done so. The "Not PlanetA Any Aspect PlanetB" is now internally converted
    to a "PlanetA NoAspect PlanetB" condition and is now processed correctly
* Fixed, Electional Search, if Mercury in Aries AND Coordinates-
    Mercury Long. Speed = +0*00' - the results were only for speed = 0. Also,
    Sun in 2nd House AND Sun Conj Moon were also giving spurious results
* Fixed, Electional Search, when searching for aspect hits, under certain
    conditions the aspect file was not being found and the resulting orb was
    returning zero for the search
* Fixed, Electional Search, when the list is sorted into date and time order,
    in some cases, the Preview wheel does not match the date and time of the
    item highlighted
* Fixed, 90* Dial display, the midpoint trees for the angles (As and Mc) can
    now be displayed for a new chart where the Dial was selected previously
    (instead of Wheel) for another chart. Previously, a new chart dial did not
    display the As and Mc midpoint trees when the pointer was moved with the mouse
* Fixed, Chart Import/Export, in the "Chart Type to Save Into", the file
    extension of the ASCII files is *.dat instead of *.txt. The current extension
    (*.dat) for ASCII files results in a data file that is like JigSaw v2 and not
    like the format of text files, stated in the "Options" tab
* Fixed, Animation, selecting the Age+1 Harmonic chart in a TriWheel displayed a
    natal chart instead of the Age+1 Harmonic chart
* Fixed, Planetary Nodes display had a runtime error caused by the Black Moon
    Lilith being called. This object is not on the ecliptic and so was deleted
    from the Planetary nodes area
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, "Transits to Progs", "Transits to Directions" and
    "Directions to Radix" gave wrong results for the "B" (beginning of report)
    records of a dynamic report. The first two record types were actually giving
    "Transits to Transits" hits and positions while the "Directions to Radix"
    record type only gave wrong results if other records types were also selected
    in the report, like "Progs to Progs"
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, if Dynamic Transits & Progressions is run, it will run
    normally with the selected "Transits:" points file, e.g. "outers".  If the
    user then runs the Calendar and then switches back to re-display the Dynamic
    Transits & Progressions screen again, the "Transits:" points file changed to
    the file that was selected in the Calendar, e.g. "sunout"
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, selecting "Parallels of Decl" caused a
    "subscript out of range" error
* Fixed, Chart Comments, if using the Copy button to copy charts from one chart
    file to another, Chart Comments were not being transferred

* Fixed, Chart Comments, comments not being saved for charts

SOLAR FIRE GOLD - UPDATES

=========================

Listed in Reverse Chronological Order

---------------------------
Version 7.0.8 - 14 Sep 2008
---------------------------
* Improved, Dignity/Almuten and Arabic Parts Editors, added the extra 14
    new planets/points, such as Sedna and Eris to name a few, to the list
    of planets and points in the Editors
* Improved, Edit Rulers/Weightings, add the 14 new planets/points, such
    as Sedna and Eris to name a few, to the rulership module. The weightings
    editor remains unchanged only allowing weight values to be assigned to 
    planets/points up to the Part of Fortune
* Improved, Cloned charts, now save the position and size of the various
    cloned windows, like other windows in Solar Fire, so that they can be
    placed in the same position on screen when the clone window is created
    in later sessions of Solar Fire
* Improved, Chart Art, improved the positioning of some page objects in
    6 x Chart Art files
* Fixed, Chart Comments, when new charts entered, comments were not being
    saved in *.SFcht files but were fine for the older *.cht files
* Fixed, Dignity/Almuten Editor, when this Editor selected via the Utilities
    menu and either the Solar.alm selected, clicking on Children (Day) then
    "6 Selected Points" shows an error in Solar.arp. The problem was that
    the *.arp file appears in the new "Almutens & Dignities" folder while the
    Arabic Parts file (Solar.arp) appears in the new "Points & Colors" folder
    in the located under the "Solar Fire User Files" folder. The correct
    path to the Arabic Parts files is now selected
* Fixed, Runtime Error (RTE) "subscript out of bounds" (crash), if charts
    entered or opened and added to the Calculated Charts list then all the
    charts deleted then a new chart added then a Chart > Chart Search
    performed, when the "Search" button was clicked the RTE popped up. This
    sequence also occurred if the Dynamic > Electional Search was selected
    instead of the "Chart Search" using the same sequence
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, if both Tr-Tr and Sign Ingress are selected, if you
    "View Chart" for an aspect event then a single wheel is displayed. If you
    "View Chart" for a Sign Ingress event then a BiWheel is displayed, with
    the base chart as the inner wheel. The program now displays a single wheel
    for a Sign Ingress event when Tr-Tr selected but not when Tr-Na selected.
    House Ingress events will contine to display a BiWheel because all House
    Ingress events are always with respect to a natal or base chart
* Fixed, Error message - Points file Empty, if a LoginName has a period (.)
    in the path then an error occurs when you try to display a BiWheel
* Fixed, Return Chart, if you cast a natal chart then relocate the Solar Return
    to Oakville, Canada, where there are two choices, if you select, Oakville,
    Ontario, you get a TZ of EDT, however, once you click on the OK button,
    while the chart shows the correct Lat/Long, the TZ goes to CDT, the
    Manitoba one
* Fixed, Image list tooltip tags, when more than 15 charts are open, the image
    list cycles through, dropping of earlier charts, but the image tags seem
    to remain the same, putting them out of sync. with the chart names
* Fixed, Chart Clone, the chart being cloned can get out of step with the name
    on the Calculated Chart list in some circumstances. Also, if more than 16
    charts were opened on the Calculated Charts list, trying to clone these
    later charts resulted in a system crash

---------------------------

Version 7.0.7 - 23 Aug 2008
---------------------------
* NOTE: There was no change in the Solar Fire version number because
    only the separate Chart Art pages were updated.
* Improved, Chart Art, modified various Chart Art *.PAG files to now
    acknowledge the source of the background grpahic by adding a caption
    to the bottom left corner of those pages that were contributed. Also,
    all descriptions of Chart Art *.PAG files were changed from "Single
    Wheel with Art" to "Solar Fire Wheel with Art"
* Fixed, Chart Art, some of the new Chart Art pages could not display or
    print the backgrounds when the printer was set for Letter paper size
    but were fine on A4 paper sizes

---------------------------
Version 7.0.7 - 19 Aug 2008
---------------------------
* Added, Chart Art, 12 new chart art pages have been designed and included
    as standard in Solar Fire
* Added, Wheel Styles, 3 new TriWheel styles have been included, each one
    showing aspects between two of the three charts, hence the three wheel
    styles. Using the "Pages" button on the View Chart screen, it is easy
    to switch between these three charts to see the various aspect
    combinations
* Added, Calculated Charts, user can now easily toggle between Geocentric
    and Heliocentric mode for a chart either by Chart > Edit > Toggle
    Coordinates or right-click on highlighted chart on the
    Calculated Charts list > Edit > Toggle Coordinates or use keys Ctrl+K
    when viewing Solar Fire's main menu
* Added, Clone Charts, a user can now "clone" a chart highlighted on the
    "Calculated Charts" list by either clicking on the Chart > Clone or
    pressing on the Ctrl+O keyboard keys. This action creates a copy of
    the chart into a preview window allowing you to move it to other parts
    of the screen, resize it or make it "Always on top".  This feature is
    handy when you want to keep a copy of a chart that you are working on
    always in view. You can also clone as many charts as are listed on the
    "Calculated" Charts list or make multiple clones of the same chart
* Added, Electional Search, when previewing search results, there is now
    an option to display a Dial or BiDial instead of a UniWheel or BiWheel
    together with all the Dial pointer features. The BiWheel or BiDial is
    displayed if the "of Radix Chart" is selected in the search conditions
* Improved, Dynamic Events, removed the Maximum Accuracy OFF menu option
    from the Dynamic Transits & Progressions process. This process now runs
    as if Maximum Accuracy is always ON. The Maximum Accuracy option now
    only applies to the Calendar module such that when Maximum Accuracy is
    OFF the calculations and the drawing of the Calendar, particularly the
    31-day Calendar, runs faster than when Maximum Accuracy setting is ON
* Impoved, Half Aspect Grid, if you are displaying a half grid in either
    the View Chart screen or the Animate screen, you can right-click on the
    grid itself and see a new entry on the menu named "Grid Settings".
    Clicking on this menu item pops up a screen where a numberof settings
    can be changed such that the half aspect grid can now display the angles
    between points/planets in all of the cells. There is an option to display
    the angles in either Degree/Minutes/Seconds format or Decimal format.
    Additionally, you can also select whether you want to see the angles
    based on "regular" angles up to 180* or angles up to 360*. For this
    purpose, a new page layout has been supplied called "Half Aspect Grid"
    located in the "Grids" or "Added Recently" topic
* Improved, Solar Fire Version, now print the full version of the program,
    including revision number, on various reports. Previously, only "v7.0"
    was being printed
* Fixed, Folders/Files, on computers where the LoginName name of the user
    contains a dot (".") or period, or any other folder name contains a dot
    or period, some functionality of Solar Fire was giving spurious results,
    particularly in areas of opening or editing files. For example, if a
    user opened a *.SFcht chart file then a chart's Comments information
    would not be seen or a corruption of the Comments might have shown
* Fixed, Chart Files and User Files backup, the backup feature on Windows XP
    (and earlier) computers was only creating folders at the destination and
    not copying (backing up) all the files, though it was working fine on
    Windows Vista computers
* Fixed, Exit, when closing down Solar Fire using Chart > Exit menu item,
    the user was not asked whether they wanted to save charts, however,
    clicking on the "X" button instead did correctly ask whether a user
    wanted to save charts before exiting Solar Fire. Both exit points now
    ask whether a user wants to save charts
* Fixed, Electional Search, events now in strict date/time order.
    Previously, some "Enters" and "Is Exact" events were not in time order
* Fixed, Electional Search, the Search Location was not automatically
    looking up the entered Place in the ACS atlas
* Fixed, Electional Search, the Aspects file selected by the user is now
    used for searches, when it is required. Previously, Solar Fire's default
    aspect file was being used
* Fixed, Place lookups, if a place not in the ACS atlas is entered in the
    Place box then you either press TAB or click on the Country box then
    immediately click back to the Place box, because you see an error in
    the Place name, the ACS Atlas lookup is invoked and the list goes into
    a continuous loop eventually raising an error message
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, when "Natal Solar Rate" was selected for Primary
    Mundane, no events were displaying
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, Maximum Accuracy ON, the longitude of Mercury was
    sometimes incorrect for hits to other planets in Transits to Transits
* Fixed, Dynamic Events, Maximum Accuracy OFF, fixed various logic
    combinations that caused some spurious results for some event hits
* Fixed, Calendar, for July 2008 only, an Overflow error message was
    generated if Transits to Transits was selected in the Calendar
    Preferences

----------------------------

Version 7.0.6 - 16 June 2008

Solar Returns. The background graphic of each of the pages has a brief

text interpretation for the Sun in that house

* Added, Chart Art, added 2 new Chart Art designs for Children

* Added, Eris Glyph, set the Eris glyph to the new standard and added an

option to select the original glyph used in Solar Fire Gold in the

need to be manually installed as per instructions on the website

* Fixed, Reports menu, Vulcan (Baker) locking up program when in View Chart

and the Reports button clicked

* Fixed, Reports menu, Vulcan (Baker) locking up program when Reports button

clicked and Tabulations selected

* Fixed, Charts menu, if there are no charts on the Calculated Charts list then

clicking on Chart > Rising/Setting or Chart > Lunar Phase items caused a

runtime error of the program

* Fixed, Stellarium v0.9.1 giving wrong years. The format of the date and time

strings changed in this version of Stellarium.

* Fixed, Dynamic Events, OK button was not fully showing on the Interps screen

for a line entry in Dynamic Events list when it was double-clicked

* Improved, Tabulations, extended the Vedic Dasas layout so that it displays the

full 120-year set of Dasas/Bhuktis

* Improved, Check for Updates on Web, the Solar Fire program was not closing in

some circumstances when a patch update was downloaded resulting in a warning

message being raised requesting the user to close the Solar fire program so

that the patch update could proceed

---------------------------

Version 7.0.5 - 5 May 2008

---------------------------

* Added, Menus, added fast menu access (Utilities menu) to the Swiss Ephemeris

files folder

* Added, Interpretations files, in cases where all interpretation (*.int) files

are relocated to another folder from the standard

"...\Solar Fire User Files\Interpretations" folder, you may now manually add

a new key "InterpPath=" under the [Solar Fire] section, along with a folder path

(ending in "\") to the Solfire7.ini file located in

"...\Solar Fire User Files\Settings" folder. This option might be useful in

situationswhere you want your own master set of interpretation files in a

different location to the standard Solar Fire Gold interpretation files.

* Added, Midpoint Interpretations, added new midpoint interpretation text

and reports

* Added, Chart Art, three more pages were added: Art_PurpleBamboo, Art_RedCosmos

and Art_StarNavy

* Fixed, Combined Charts, if a Combined chart was created, e.g. Composite Midpoints,

and then a Solar Return chart was then created for the first name used in the

Composite chart, the second name used in the Composite chart was being displayed

as the name of the Solar Return chart on the Calculated Charts list as well as

the preview wheel

* Fixed, Chart Art pages, the graphic backgrounds on the 14 new chart art pages

released in the v7.0.4 patch were not displaying when the default printer was

set for Letter page size

* Fixed, Aspect Grid, runtime error when the new Aries Point selected in a chart

using the Draconic zodiac

* Fixed, Chart Analysis, "Leading Planet" was incorrect for Locomotive chart shapes

* Fixed, Interpretations Editor, temporary file creation error on Vista 64-bit

when Compacting interpretation files

* Fixed, Interpretations Editor, runtime error when clicking on the Browse

button on the Output File

* Fixed, Interpretations Editor, when the File > Upgrade is run (to upgrade the

Interpretations file from v2 to v3 file structure extending it for the new

points/planets like Sedna and Eris as well as for midpoint text) the first

12 characters of the text for various combinations was being "chopped off"

* Fixed, Interpretations Editor, now warn user if any of the new points are

selected, like Sedna and Eris, and the interpretations file has not been

upgraded to the latest version

* Fixed, Interpretation Text Import, Changes to text made by users in the

interpretation files were not being copied from earlier versions of Solar

Fire to Solar Fire Gold when the Utilities > Import Charts and Settings had

the "Interpretation Files (For advanced users only)" selected

* Fixed, Dynamic Report, when Maximum Accuracy switched off, for some planet

aspects, the EXL dates were the same date and time

* Fixed, Dynamic Events, when Maximum Accuracy ON and a Dynamic Events report

run where there is only one aspect selected, i.e. conjunction, and one transit

planet to one natal planet, the resulting report gave spurious results

* Fixed, Planet Calculations, Vulcan (Baker calculation only) was locking up

Solar Fire Gold when it was selected

* Improved, Midpoint Axes and Trees Report, changed the "|" symbol used in these

reports to the more common "/" symbol used for midpoints

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, changed the Text Editor option "write.exe"

to "wordpad.exe"

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, lengthened the folder/file text boxes to allow

for longer paths

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, changed the midpoint separator from "|" to "/"

so that midpoint text using "/" can be read in

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, add message to let user know how to Upgrade

interpretations file to the latest version if they select any of the Midpoints

text categories and the interpretation file is the older v2 format

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, if no chart opened then grey out the

File > Compact and File > Upgrade menu items

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, if no INT file opened and a Compile is

performed from a source text file then open the created INT for viewing after

the Compile has been completed

* Improved, Interpretations Editor, changed the order that "Point to Midpoints" are

exported when Decompiling, now in Midpoint order

* Improved, Aspect Orbs, extended Parallel and Contra-Parallel test to check for

both applying and separating orbs. Previously, only one test was done for both

applying and separating orbs resulting in parallels or contra-parallels being

displayed in a grid if the orb for either applying or separating was set to zero

* Improved, Aspect Orbs, now allow the user to enter separate applying and separating

orbs for the Parallel and Contra-Parallel aspects. Previously, the same value

entered into the Applying orb was being used to automatically update Separating

orb, and vice versa

* Improved, Unidirectional Orbs, changed logic so that if a Unidirectional orb is

selected when Use Planet Orb Ratios is also selected, the lowest orb ratio is

used for aspects in orb calculations

* Improved, Chart Analysis, added a "Leading Planet" to the Bowl shape

* Improved, Page Topic Index, set "Auto Apply" ON as the default so that Page

Preview is enabled

* Improved, Main Menu, allow the setting of the Firdaria Report, Nodal Variation,

---------------------------

Version 7.0.4 - 10 Mar 2008

---------------------------

* Fixed, Planetary Nodes, added Sedna and Eris to Planetary Nodes report as they

were left out of this report after these new planets were added

* Fixed, Calendar, both the default Progession and the default Direction settings

in the Dynamic Transits and Progressions entry screen were not holding their

values if the Calendar feature was run and the user returned to the Dynamic

Transits and Progressions entry screen. This problem showed up if the Progression

was not set to "Secondary" and the Direction was not set to "Solar Arc" in the

Dynamic Transits and Progressions

* Fixed, Calendar, the View menu tick was not set to the saved calendar period

when the Calendar was started up

* Fixed, Calendar, Preferences > Edit Settings, if "Use default timezone" is selected,

the Calendar did not reflect a change in the displayed timezone on the Calendar

when a change was made to the default place/timezone in Solar Fire's

Preferences > Edit Settings > Places tab

* Fixed, Dynamic Report, when Copy/Paste Dynamic Report data to a Word document

(or Excel), tabs on columns were missing

* Fixed, Dynamic, Directions->Radix, Primary vanDam, when listed and then View Chart,

a warning message now offers to display transits

* Fixed, Dynamic, Primary Mundane, results were different to those in Solar Fire

Deluxe for the same chart and settings

* Fixed, Dynamic Transits, deleting two or more columns in Dynamic Events Report

caused program to crash

* Fixed, Repair, the Repair function was removing some important files thus causing

a "Bad installation..." error message at next startup. Due to complexity at

installation, the "Repair" button was removed for the Solar Fire Gold entry in

Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs

* Improved, Page Designs, when new page layouts are either created or externally

added to the "Pages" folder in the "Solar Fire User Files" folder, when a user

next selects the View > Page Topic Index menu item, a test is now done for

whether the new page is a "Chart Art" type of page or other page type. If it

is a "Chart Art" page then it is now automatically added to the "Chart Art"

topic where it will now be found. Other types of pages are automatically added

to the "Added Recently" topic. For these latter types of pages, a user can always

"drag and drop" the new page from the "Added Recently" topic to any other topic listed.

* Modified, Calendar, if "Show Exact Times of Hits" is set in the Calendar Preferences,

the items are now sorted by time in the day. If "Show Exact Times of Hits" is not set

then the default order of display continues to take place, that is, by Event and Planet.

The View > View Interpretations Report is now also sorted accordingly.

* Modified, Calendar Options, re-arrange screen, reverse Sign / House Ingresses and

Stationary / Parallels to be consistent with Dynamic screen

* Modified, Chart Files, updated the birth time of Prince Henry (aka Prince Harry)

in the Royalty.SFcht chart file from 4:20am to 4:20pm.

* Modified, View Chart, removed the chart number in brackets next to chart type in

caption so that it does not display. Useful when "Copy/Send" chart by Clipboard,

File or Email Attachment. Previously, printing a chart never had the chart number

Version 7.0.3 - 20 Feb 2008

---------------------------

* Fixed, Demo, if Solar Fire Gold Demo installed and then Solar Fire Gold full

version installed, uninstalling Solar Fire Gold Demo removes the Swiss Ephemeris

Common files causing a startup error when next starting up Solar Fire Gold.

* Fixed, Solar Maps Lite, clicking on the Eclipse button did not display any eclipses

in list.

* Fixed, Dynamic > Animate menus, these were not displaying on computers with

Windows 98 or Windows ME operating systems.

* Added, Dynamic > Animate menus, now allow Real Time Clock and Animate menu windows

to be minimized.

* Fixed, Startup, Swiss Ephemeris error at startup when Solar Fire Gold installed

on Windows 98 and Windows 98 Second Edition operating systems.

* Changed, Startup, modified the logic to now allow for the detection and use of

the SE_EPHE_PATH environmental variable on a computer, relocating the Swiss

Ephemeris files, and in this scenario Solar Fire Gold's embedded Swiss

Ephemeris files may actually be deleted (allowable) at startup.

---------------------------

Version 7.0.2 - 06 Feb 2008

---------------------------

* Fixed, Calendar, if 7-day mode spans a month then no aspects shown for any day

* Fixed, Calendar, if 7-day mode spans a month then Moon data wrong for the days

in the new month

* Fixed, Calendar, the interps text on the Calendar was using the wrong interps

text file - Transits.int instead of Calendar.int

* Fixed, View Chart, Dual Wheels using uniextra4.wh1 gave a subscript out of

range error

* Fixed, Charts, when a chart selected in Chart > Open is a *.cht format chart

(older format), the feature to allow a user to convert to the later *.SFcht

format did not work.

* Fixed, Birthdays, though more than 40 charts may be highlighted in a chart

file, only about 40 of them are displayed on the Birthday list. It was found the

Birthday list being displayed had a limit of around 40 charts even though the

birthdays file had the right number of charts. The limit was extended to

around 160 birthday charts that can be displayed.

* Fixed, Calendar, Preferences > Edit Settings, if

"Specify my own location/timezone" selected, it did not perform auto. lookup

of ACS atlas for timezone after you tabbed past the Country entry box.

* Fixed, Startup, if Solar Fire Gold is installed and then Solar Fire Deluxe

is uninstalled, a "Run-time error '429'" shows up when starting Solar Fire Gold.

This problem only occurred for Solar Fire Deluxe and not earlier versions.

* Improved, Swiss Ephemeris file path, added auto. recover facility to return back to

default path if the current path fails to detect the Swiss Ephemeris files at that

location on the startup of Solar Fire Gold

Version 7.0.1 - 17 Jan 2008

---------------------------

* Some chart wheels with colour fills were being displayed in their opposite colours

when displayed on Chart Art pages with "dark" backgrounds where the page objects were

being displayed in "white". Now fixed.
