VIRUS CHECKER AND ANY PROGRAMS RUNNING IN THE BACKGROUND WHEN
UPDATING OR INSTALLING!!!

IMPORTANT - ABOUT UPDATES: In addition to the update, we have posted a couple of new files. Please read the following carefully:

The INSTALL below contains a partial version of the Labview Runtime Engine in an effort to keep the size of the download small. If you have not kept up with the updates, and install the current update, you may get a message to the effect that you need an update to the Labview Runtime Engine when you try to run the program.

The FULL Labview Runtime Engine 8.5 is also available (just scroll down) and can be installed separately. You will need to reboot after you install it. If your current version is older than 1.25, you MIGHT need to install this. IF YOU ARE HAVING PRINTER ISSUES, DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THIS. Tell the program to REPAIR YOUR INSTALLATION when asked.

Updated Help Files are not included in the UPDATE. They are included in the full package OR can be downloaded separately.

Pro-Q Designer V 1.66 FULL VERSION - September 10, 2010

THIS IS AN UPDATED INSTALL that addresses several issues. PREVIOUS VERSIONS/UPDATES ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD as they are incompatible with this version.

• Improved QBOT support. Minor corrections have been made to the format (inaccurate documentation provided by the manufacturer).
• Problem with sporadic shutdowns found and corrected. This caused a major overhaul of the mouse-wheel support (Zoom) and is why this is a full install.
• Align and Distribute Patterns within Passes has been restored.
• Support for more non-standard DXF types.
• NEW ability to select multiple passes interactively for merging (no need to use the wizard although it is available). Hold the "S" key down and click to select multiple passes. RIGHT CLICK when multiple passes are selected to bring up the Multi Pass Menu.
• NEW Align and Space Passes top to bottom (adjusts space between rows).
• IMPROVED thumbnail printing - specify a maximum size for best fit.
• IMPROVED eliminate jumps wizard does smarter "joins".
• Watch for 1.67
