• All data and registration info now kept in the Windows standard AppDataDir automatically (no longer asks if the user wants to make the change.
• Changed to use HTTP instead of FTP for updating the program.
• Added LoopXSpace to the System Status window (took the place of the unused XON/OFF).

Build #0016

Build #0016 adds the ability to Combine (add together) Lanes that overlay in addition to the regular shifting/renaming of a site. This allows users to collect data with multiple counters and directly combine the two datasets at import time (or by using the Merge Sites function).

It also makes these changes:

• Created a Texas only version with custom features for Texas DOT.
• Added a separate Author/Publisher website link on the Help menu.
• Added the 'OVERRIDEUPLOAD' command line switch to help test out MDK units.

• Fixed not re-enabling New Site box for using merge function second time.
• Also fixed merge function not calling up lane shift window automatically.
• Eliminated issue with not always recognizing when map was displayed at program close. This caused having to press the Map button twice on some occasions to get map to display.
• Changed display so that large MMC/SD cards show the amount of memory in KB instead of bytes (to fit screen).
• Fixed problem not displaying Loop Class values in monitor lanes and when mode is Basic or Advanced Loop Class.
• Multiple advances to the Loop Class Table create function.
• Fixed per-vehicle shifting/combining problem when adding two datasets that don’t have a partial set start.
