Version 2.0.1
Introduction
Version 2.0.1 of the Hydrologic Engineering Center Flood Damage Reduced Analysis Software is released. This version supersedes previous versions.
Resolved Issues
| Issue | Description |
|---|---|
| Price Index Broken | The price index is a study property modified by the user that acts as a global price update for all structure, content, vehicle, and other values to the price level represented by the user-specified price index. The price index was not being used in the aggregated stage-damage compute due to the data not being passed from the user interface to the computational engine. The connection between the user interface and computational engine for the price index has been resolved in Version 2.0.1, and users can now update structure inventory values using the price index found under study properties. |
| Software Stalls Opening Large Study | Studies with very many frequency functions could not be opened due to the quantity of data processing procedures taking place upon opening a study data set. Calculation of uncertainty about frequency curves was taking place for all curves upon opening the software. In Version 2.0.1, calculation of uncertainty about a frequency curve happens as the user launches the frequency curve editor. The only changes to the user experience or workflow from this change is the ability to open a study with many frequency functions and automated display of uncertainty upon launching the frequency function editor. |
| Unhandled Exception Upon Changing Projection File | Users encountered an unhandled exception upon attempting to change the study projection file. Version 2.0.1 includes a fix so that users can successfully replace study projection files without incident. Previously selected projection files that are replaced are copied to an archive folder within the Study Projection subdirectory of the study data set directory. |
| Frequency function button appears unchecked on opening | In some cases, the radio button indicating flow or stage for a graphical frequency curve was rendering on screen with neither option checked. The button will now reflect the users saved or immediate choices as intended. |
