Version 3.5 (WinX)
 | There are breaking XAML template changes in this version. If you use any customized XAMLs from older versions, they should be updated according to these instructions. |
[edit]
Initial Release
New features
- It is now possible to configure complex parameter lists for various commands in XAML, using the new KeyValueList element
- It is now possible to use AR-Markers for device pose estimation.
- Administrators can now configure the fit modes which determines how documents are initially displayed.
- You can now find comments on various type list members in the developer mode. This is an ongoing process and more comments will be added/improved after the release.
Enhancements
- The Camera Access was refactored to provide a proper basis for upcoming features.
- The Rendering Environment was refactored to provide a proper basis for upcoming features.
- The problematic CollectionToViewConverter for content filtering is replaced by the new ListCollectionView. See XAML Changes in UBIK WinX 3.5 for details.
- Users can now confirm and save their signature before the timer ends.
- The OK button will now stay disabled if there is no signature.
- Improved the way navigation history is maintained so that issues such as wrong navigation destinations upon leaving unsaved changes no longer occur.
- The string criteria of offline queries are now more restrictive (all sub strings must be found instead of just one).
- Greatly improved the app's performance when loading PDF files with many pages. You might want to check this out as well.
- Scanning is now paused when the last search result dialog is still open for user interaction.
- Comma and dot are both accepted as decimal seperators when entering numbers, independent of the current culture.

- Fixed an issue where Child Informations were not shown in the POIFlyout of the Map Page.

- Fixed an issue where the HideOtherPOIs and ScreenOffset Settings had no effect on POI Rendering.
- Fixed an issue where POIs were rendered upside down when having a negative ScaleX property.
- Fixed an issue where POIs in the Map and POI Page were not updated once infrastructure objects were loaded.
- Fixed an issue where the Geo Editor TeachIn ignored manual positions.
- Fixed an issue where AR-Marker POIs were blinking when they should have been behind the camera.
- Fixed an issue where POIs were visible in the upper left corner of the POI Page if the near and far clipping plane were too close.

- Fixed an issue where it was not possible to return to Scan Page after scanning AR-Markers.
- Fixed an issue where the RFID(NFC) Scanner did not show a dialog window with more objects (when tag has targets two objects or more)
- Invalid characters in profile names are escaped/replaced and will no longer break the app.
- Fixed several UI issues in the Gantt chart control. For example, no longer displaying the current date line or the progress bar if it doesn't fall into the project timeline.
- Fixed an issue where the content page displays incorrect title/subtitle right after editing a Guid property using a query.
- Fixed an issue where the user can only browse to the same object once by scanning the QR code (unless a different marker is scanned).
- Fixed an issue where the "Manual" sync mode configured in profiles is ignored during logins.
- Fixed an issue where the toggling of fit-to-width mode for documents doesn't work (when Windows animation is enabled).
- Fixed an issue where the device position calculated from AR-Markers was wrong.
- Fixed an issue where POIs having a negative AR-Marker side length were not shown.
Known issues
- Project specific resources defined in UBIKThemes might not take effect immediately after switching profiles. Restarting the app solves the problem.
- If a device has multiple cameras of exactly the same model (e.g. Microsoft HD 3000), the wrong one might be used during remote support calls.
- When using the UBIK contrast profile for OCR scanning, the app might crash especially if other marker scanning is also turned on.

 | There are still XAML errors that cannot be caught, such as referencing a StaticResource that doesn't exist - in such a case, the App will crash, but it will still write the full exception message to [AppInstallPath]\LocalState\UBIKDebug.log before termination, thus the corrupted line can again be easily identified! |
