LightBurn v1.7.01-RC1

There is now a release candidate available for a small patch fix to the v1.7.00 release. This addresses a few small issues found with the initial release. You can download it here: Index of /LightBurn/RC/LightBurn-v1.7.01-RC-1/

Note: As this is a release candidate build it will install side-by-side with an existing v1.7.00 build

Change Log:

  • Fix shortcut issues in Spanish translations
  • Update Norwegian and Greek translations
  • Fix for the small group of users that had camera resolution issues
  • Update to MSVC Redist 14.40 to fix issue with v1.7.00 not loading for some people.
  • Fix for main window not correctly using comma and decimal point in all cases
  • Fix for Trim Tool math precision
  • Increase size of “Notes” dialog
  • Suppress “transfer failed” messages on DSP controllers when not actually needed.

Unfortunately, this error still exists “LightBurn could not remove the backup file UNC/********/Data/003 Customers/000 TBS/007 Sound Module/Sound Module-Test2 Pro Micro 1_RvumvS.ibmn2” (Windows 10, saving to a NAS or local HHD/SSD, always the same message, but data is saved.)

Found an error with Variable Text
After saving the project, the progress isn’t saved.

eg.
current: 80
advanced by: 4
auto-advance: ON

after opening the file both counters are reset (current & advance by)
Auto-advance is still ON

What would I expect:
That Current & Advance by are saved too.
The variable text offset’s are saved, but not the advance by??

Thanks

We are still looking into that one.

I’m guessing you just didn’t save the project again. If you run a job and those values change via the auto advance but you don’t save the project file again it won’t persist between sessions. Unless I’m missing something @LightBurn ?

I did save.
I’ll try it again

Would this by chance improve the camera lens calibration? I tried multiple times and each time the beginning capture is successful it results in a black screen.

None of them are saved.
On every open it resets to:

  • Adavance by = 1

Auto-Advance’s state is persisted.

@lightningstrike your issue should be fixed in RC-3, linked above.

This release fixed my UNC problem to another computer on my network. Thanks!

Before opening another topic, I thought it might fit here as well, though my comment is about the 1.7.01 release version. I installed it on some machines and experienced the (bad user experience) issue, that the installer now installs the missing MS redistributable package. This is great on one hand. But this package asks for a reboot after installation, which is blocked because the LB setup is still running in the background. I don’t know how to circumvent this, maybe quit the LB setup while the MS package is installed.

I’m not a pro. But I seem to be running into a bug that may be put in for a useful tool, but I find it annoying. Here it is in my best explanation. When using any too then switching to a different one, if you press the space bar, the software backs up to previous tool

SpaceBar is tied to the “Hand” tool which allows you to Pan the project.
Have you configured your hotkeys differently? any customization?
