Fledermaus 8.3.1 Release

16 December 2020

We are pleased to present Fledermaus 8.3.1 which is a maintenance release addressing a number of bugs and a few small enhancements.

Known Issues

Grids with different cell sizes in X and Y are not yet fully supported in Fledermaus 8, which most often occurs when importing geographic data. Versions 8.2.0 and earlier were incorrectly importing these grids, which resulted in alignment issues when combined with other data. To prevent this, Fledermaus 8.2.1 (and newer) will present a warning message and not allow grids with different X and Y cell size to be imported. A proper fix is being developed for a future release.
The standalone Free Viewer is currently only available for Windows. The MacOS and Linux versions will be available as part of the next release.

Enhancements

You can now make copies of surfaces when attaching images or scalars
This release includes Windows, MacOS and Linux versions of Fledermaus

Resolved Bugs

Colour maps were not retained with surfaces when imported from raw grids
