==SMS 11.1.1 – Beta Release January 17, 2013==
 
This is a bugfix release for SMS 11.1.1
 
You must uninstall the previous beta versions of SMS 11.1 before.
 
===Bugfixes===
 
The following bugs have been fixed in this version.
 
#Fixed an issue with AdH Model losing data.
#Fixed issue related to TUFLOW 1D causing a crash.

==SMS 11.1.1 – Beta Release December 11, 2012==
 
This is a bugfix release for SMS 11.1.0
 
You must uninstall the previous beta versions of SMS 11.1 before.
 
===Bugfixes===
 
The following bugs have been fixed in this version.
 
#Resolved issues related to interpolating from rasters or raster sets to scatter sets.
#Resolved issue related to the display of contours on a raster (or raster set) as a surface. Scalar values were being offset by half a raster cell.
#Added a display state for each raster when the raster is saved to an SMS project so that they are not turned on when the project is loaded.
#If a user tries to process boundary triangles when the display projection is not the same projection used by the scatter set will immediately tell the user that the display projection must be changed.
#The order of rasters in the list will now control the drawing order.  Dragging a raster to a lower position in the raster set will hide that raster behind rasters above it in the list.
#Messages related to reading incomplete AdH solutions have been modified to reduce the confusion.  Redundant messages have been removed.  AdH solution folders are now preserved when a project is saved.
#Fixed issue with converted selected map (feature) objects to a scatter set.
 
==SMS 11.1.0 - Beta release October 8, 2012==
SMS 11.1 is a general feature upgrade from SMS 11.0.  Standard installation is in a different directory than that used by SMS 11.0 and therefore, both versions can be installed on the same machine.
 
Licenses for SMS 11.0 which are up to date on their maintenance enable the same corresponding modules in SMS 11.1.
 
While the version is in beta release, the executable will expire after 90 days.  This is because we anticipate some revisions and corrections and we want to encourage users to work with the most stable version possible.
 
Automatic bug fix versions are posted nightly on the download site.  These are not official releases, but can be used if bugs are encountered in the beta release and the support department indicates these issues are resolved but not officially posted yet.

New features for SMS 11.1.

General Features

Dynamic Images

  • SMS can now link to dynamic image sources on the web so that the background image is updated as user pans/zooms around the domain. These images can be converted to static images for speed or if internet access may be lost.

New Online Image Sources

  • Recently, the terraserver web service that had been available in SMS was discontinued. SMS now accesses a number of new web sources for image and/or elevation data using the previous web source tools.

Project on the fly

  • All data in the SMS instance is now projected to a user specified projection for display. This makes working with data in various projections much easier and less prone to round-off or conversion errors.

Dataset Toolbox

  • Angle convention conversion for scalar datasets. For more information, see Dataset Toolbox.

Open as... command

  • General data formats such as raster, vector and image files are not always supported as native in SMS. This new command allows SMS to use the Global Mapper library to convert the data in these files to be read in to SMS.

Import Wizard column association

  • The import wizard can now associate Northing/Easting headers with Y/X.

Annotations

  • In addition to previous annotation capabilities, users can setup annotation layers so they are only visible during user specified time intervals. This would apply to film loops and stepping through time steps. See SMS:Annotations for more information.

MIKE 21 (*.mesh) File Support

  • MIKE 21 (*.mesh) files can now be loaded into SMS 11.1 and later. See the article MIKE 21 *.mesh.

Module Features

  • The Select/Delete Data function (Feature Objects menu) now gives the user the ability to set how points that lie on the selection polygon will be treated. For more information, see Select/Delete Data....
  • Map data can be imported/exported in MIF/MID format. For more information, see MapInfo MID/MIF.

Particle Module

  • Extract particle subset – Export a portion of the times and/or particles to a new file to reduce file sizes of particle solutions.

Raster

  • New raster set tree item folder in the project explorer. For more information, see Raster Module.
  • New "Options" dialog in the raster set project explorer. This is used specify if raster values are/aren't elevations. For more information, see Raster Functionalities.
  • Ability to convert part of a raster to a scatter set (TIN).

Scatter Module

  • Ability to autogenerate TIN breaklines following elevation values. For more information, see Generate Contour Breaklines.

SMS 11.1.0 - Beta release October 8, 2012

SMS 11.1 is a general feature upgrade from SMS 11.0. Standard installation is in a different directory than that used by SMS 11.0 and therefore, both versions can be installed on the same machine.

Licenses for SMS 11.0 which are up to date on their maintenance enable the same corresponding modules in SMS 11.1.

While the version is in beta release, the executable will expire after 90 days. This is because we anticipate some revisions and corrections and we want to encourage users to work with the most stable version possible.

Automatic bug fix versions are posted nightly on the download site. These are not official releases, but can be used if bugs are encountered in the beta release and the support department indicates these issues are resolved but not officially posted yet.
