Control Web 9 Build 9.0.7 — released 25. 2. 2025

The procedures SetRealValue(...), SetBooleanValue(...) and SetStringValue(...) in the table instrument do not invalidate any expressions originally placed in the cell being overwritten.
For gl_toggle_switch and gl_button instruments, when placing them in the panel, the behavior when pressing the mouse button over the device and then releasing it outside the device area has been changed. In this case, the click is not performed, as is the case with other 2D instruments.
Fixed incorrect loading of older ANSI application texts caused by the 9.0.6 update.

For the meter virtual instrument, the font can now be defined using OCL procedures.
The transparent parameter has been added to the string_display virtual instrument. The instrument is then drawn without a background in panels with a renderer other than GDI.
The Text Editor adds support for block selection, working with multiple cursors and the ability to set a dark theme.
Added axes_visibility_mode parameter to trend and trend_viewer instruments.
To the trend and trend_viewer instruments have been added methods:
- GetYAxisVisibilityMode() : longcard
- SetYAxisVisibilityMode( Mode : any )
Source code tab added to the drawing editor.

Procedure IsListOpened() in virtual instrument string_switch works even if the instrument has been blocked from editing strings by the DisableEditable()procedure.
The data_viewer in table mode did not accept fonts from the application section font ... end_font.

On some older Intel graphics adapters, the GL_ARB_imaging extension is not supported in the graphics drivers. This led to the inability to set subtractive color mixing for virtual instruments with particle effects (fire, smoke, etc.) if the instrument was on a light background. The instrument on a light background could not be rendered with sufficient contrast. On all other graphics adapters, everything always worked without problems. The problem has been addressed and resolved.
On some older Intel graphics adapters, the operating system sometimes fails to select the font used in the current graphics rendering context. Then, some characters are missing from the rendered text and the system may even crash. This problem occurred very rarely. On all other graphics adapters, everything always worked without problems. The risk of this situation has been addressed.
The alarm_viewer instrument on the client side of the network application in some cases (when the application was started) incorrectly read the list of active alarms.

The dimensions and mark_dimensions parameters have been added to the inner_caliper and outer_caliper steps in VisionLab.
For the web_server instrument, the REST API has been extended to include login. If web login is enabled in the instrument, authentication is now required before using the REST API.

The OnSetCursor() procedure was not called in the db_view instrument if the time cursor position was changed by a mouse click in the chart.
In the data_viewer instrument, the filters for selecting the displayed data did not work correctly in some cases.
When manipulating table layers in the Settings/Layer Settings... menu of InCalc, the program may have crashed.
The LPAD and PROPER functions was not working properly in the program InCalc.
In db_view instrument, the Save(...) method did not work in variants with a defined time interval if the specified interval extended beyond the end of the database.
The SetGraphSampleInterval( FirstSample, LastSample : number ) method of the trend_viewer instrument was not executed if the value of the LastSample parameter was greater than the number of records in the database.

If the icon for switching on/off the visibility of the y-axis in the legend of the data_viewer instrument was not set to be displayed, then the menu for mass switching on/off the visibility of the waveforms assigned to the corresponding axis not be displayed.

Modified the display of graphs in db_view instrument to respect the NULL value in database records.

A right-click activated context menu has been added to the db_view instrument legend to enable/disable visibility for the entire group or for the selected y-axis.
Some graphics drivers for Intel and AMD do not have the GL_ARB_imaging extension. In these cases, the texture pixel mixing equation has been solved in an alternative way.
