[ top ]

Output is printed in condensed form only.
[NCR 1595] (Fixed 21 June 2007)(Released 22 June 2007 in Release 2)

A 'Gateway' window has been implemented to provide easy access to input data, tabular data and graphical views.
The Stawal Toolbar has been implemented to provide easy access to the most frequently used views and commands.
The menu structure has been re-arranged to provide a separate 'Graphics' menu to access settings for the Graphical Output view.
Periodic web activation for Arup and Unipac editions added. (Release 3 onwards.)

Program crashes if highest ground water point above highest soil layer.
[NCR 1089] (Fixed 13 February 2007)

Data files may now be emailed directly from the program's interface via the 'File' menu.
The text output of the results view has been improved. It may now be exported to a range of file formats via the 'File' menu.
Standard sets of units (SI, kN-m, kip-ft and kip-in) may be selected via the Units and Preferences dialog.
So as to help users to ensure that they are running the latest software a new version checking system has been implemented. This compares each executable file installed locally with the set that Oasys identifies as being the 'current' version. (The comparison is carried out locally; no data is transmitted to Oasys.) Executables for which updates are available are highlighted. Updates may then be downloaded from the Program's Downloads page on the Internet. This system enables rapid delivery of bug fixes and, occasionally, minor enhancements.
The graphics data input has been improved. The user can now delete the groundwater data and strut data in the graphics input view itself.
The synchronisation of data between the graphics input view and the related tabular data entry views has been improved.

When entering data, if the “balance water pressures" option in "Analysis" is checked before any data is entered for the groundwater levels, then when you try to open the ground water data table an error is given and the table does not open properly. A workaround is to un-check the "balance water pressures" option in "Analysis", enter the ground water data, and then check "balance water pressures".
[NCR 18] (Fixed 3 November 2005)
On opening a file that has been stored with results clicking 'Examine Results' may fail with the error message 'An invalid argument was encountered'. Re-analysis is necessary before the results can be viewed.
[NCR 19] (Fixed 3 November 2005)
In cases where there is very small difference between the active and passive ground levels compared to the increment level, the program may crash.
[NCR 22] (Fixed 21 February 2006)
Version checking fails to identify the current version correctly.
[NCR 29] (Fixed 26 May 2006)(Released 30 May 2006 in Stawal.exe 18.1.6.0)
Strut forces may not be shown correctly in the results output of Stawal.
[NCR35](Fixed 27 June 2006)(Released 14 July 2006 in Stawal.exe 18.1.70)
Version number shows as 18.1.70 rather than 18.1.7.0.
[NCR42](Fixed 2 August 2006)(Released 2 August 2006 in Stawal.exe 18.1.7.1)
