Hi Guys,

Well the long awaited new beta version has been uploaded. The most important new features are listed below READ THEM!! You can download it at http://www.homeinspectorpro.com/inspectionreports/trial/HomeInspectorPro-2_5_9_2-Update.exe

Here's the latest additions!
2.5.9.2

New Feature: Copy button added to Edit Template. You can now make a copy of an entire section such as the bathroom with one click. Very useful for people who want a separate page for each Bedroom or Bathroom. Or to work on multi unit complexes.

New Feature: PDF's are now 128 bit encrypted. Encryption is set to prevent anyone from editing the PDF's in any way, but still allows text to be copied from the pdf to another program (in case it's needed). PDF annotations (comments added on top of the pdf itself) are currently disabled as well, but this may be made an option up to inspector in the future. Let me know what you think. Attempts to decrypt(hack) a PDF are arguably illegal via the DMCA which provides the inspector with an additional layer of security.

New Features: Spell check for Spanish, Italian and French added.

New Features: Added popup when you hover over section names in the Print Settings area that lists the entire section name.

New Feature: Remove Company Name on Cover Option added under Report Settings->Options.

New Feature: License number now appears on the normal cover page (previously it only appeared on the Texas cover page).

Design Change: Draw circle now works by clicking once for the center of the circle and clicking again for the radius.

Design Change: Moved each sections title up 3 pixels to accomodate lowercase p,q,y crossing shading title below.

Design Change: Clients state now prints in the top right corner as well.

Design Change: If you check a rating box that item will print if you have selected the option box to only print items if a comment is selected.

Just in case you didn't upload to 2.5.9 it added:

New Feature: Spellcheck added in English (Spanish, French, Italian and German coming soon). Added to add add/edit comments, edit documents, footer, contract, and photo caption windows. You will see words underlined and can also hit F7 to run a complete spell check to run through the entire document, comment, etc. Right click on the words spelled incorrectly to see suggestions.

New Feature: Added a move up/down button to the red & black comments so you can rearrange their appearance.

New Feature: Rotate image 90 degrees clockwise/counterclockwise now added to edit photo.

Design Change: When you enter Edit Photo mode the "Draw Arrow" button will be selected as soon as you enter. Since this is the tool used the most, it will save you a click if it's what you're going to be using first.

Design Change: The drop down boxes used to set where the photos will appear now display up to 25 items at once before creating a scroll bar. Previously only 10 were shown which meant you had to scroll at time. 25 was chosen as the max as it's the most that can be shown on an 800x600 resolution computer.

Design Change: Made it so that when you have 2 panels on the screen the split will be closer to 50/50. This is to help out on smaller resolutions.

Design Change: The new larger edit boxes will move a word to the next line if it doesn't fit, rather than splitting the word across lines.
