Updated Change Markers

There is a wish that asks for consistency in terminology:

 

https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Wishlist/issue-vs-transmittal-unify-the-user-interface/idi-p/704...

 

Transmittals were called Issues prior to Ac24. The user interface was updated in most places, but Change Markers still say "Issue" in the UI where they should say "Transmittal Set".

I have modified the Change Markers in Ac27 and Ac28 to correct this. It was a simple modification.

Lines 124 to 134 in the Master Script are following:

 

_sAutotextMenu[4][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Issue ID`
_sAutotextMenu[4][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEID>"

_sAutotextMenu[5][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Issue Name`
_sAutotextMenu[5][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEDESCRIPTION>"
	
_sAutotextMenu[6][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Issue Date`
_sAutotextMenu[6][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEDATE>"

_sAutotextMenu[7][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Issued By`
_sAutotextMenu[7][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEDBY>"

 

These need to be modified to the following:

 

_sAutotextMenu[4][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Transmittal Set ID`
_sAutotextMenu[4][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEID>"

_sAutotextMenu[5][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Transmittal Set Name`
_sAutotextMenu[5][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEDESCRIPTION>"
	
_sAutotextMenu[6][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Transmittal Set Date`
_sAutotextMenu[6][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEDATE>"

_sAutotextMenu[7][AUTOTEXT_DESC] = `Transmitted By`
_sAutotextMenu[7][AUTOTEXT_KEY] = "<ISSUEDBY>"

 

With this modification, the texts will be correct in the users interface of the Change Marker.

In the attached ZIP file,

Basic Change Marker 27_Updated.gsm is the Ac27 version.

Built-in Change Marker_Updated.gsm is the Ac28 and later version.
