(good for documentation purposes)  
- possibility to export an image of the node-map.  
- possibility to copy node-map as image to clipboard

- possibility to maximize the window

thanks

Bert, I think you must have a really old version of this software. The  
latest version of the binary is at  
[http://my.openehr.org/wsvn/oe\_distrib/windows/adl\_workbench/?op=dl&rev=0&isdir=1](http://my.openehr.org/wsvn/oe_distrib/windows/adl_workbench/?op=dl&rev=0&isdir=1)  
and the help pages are at  
[http://svn.openehr.org/ref\_impl\_eiffel/TRUNK/apps/doc/adl\_workbench\_help.htm](http://svn.openehr.org/ref_impl_eiffel/TRUNK/apps/doc/adl_workbench_help.htm)  
The Mac version is nearly working as well....

I'm about to announce this, but will do a couple more improvements  
before doing so. But the current version is a lot better than the one I  
suspect you are using.

I always downlaod the latest sources from SVN, and then doubleclick the  
EPR (eiffel project file) and do a finalize. Then I search for the  
latest exe in the directory-tree, I always forget where I should look. I  
also noticed, a few days ago, that you forgot a sourcefile, maybe you do  
not update the project file, because it is large, would that be the cause?  
And that the project file does not know about new sourcefiles that  
arrived in the source directories?

I know see, stupid me, I should use the windows.ece file, not the epr  
file, I just saw the ace file updated

Excuse me for being stupid, it is because I am not used to Eiffel, it is  
a bit strange environment, but I like it, if I have time

regards  
Bert

I don't think so, a number of people build from source with no problems.  
But the links above are the working binaries. You don't need to worry  
about the source unless you really want to look at it.

we never put the .epr file in the source tree.

yes it does, but sometimes you can have a Subversion version that is  
inconsistent, due to the limitations on moving files and creating new  
directories in subversion (which is what happened with the files you are  
talking about).

I really suggest you follow the link I supplied to the binaries. Then  
you can leave anything to do with source until when you have time.
