Pre-release ASAP Utilities version 4.2.1 RC2

I have just published a new pre-release of the new version of ASAP Utilities. It is ready for download and testing.

I have also experienced some crazy things with customizing the ribbon (qat) and empty Excel dialogboxes due to dynamic labels (getLabel). I will write more about that in a separate post.

New/improved

  • Fill » Random numbering of cells (without duplicates)
    Improved speed
  • ASAP Utilities Options » (Re) build the ASAP Utilities favorites menu toolbar
    Create or update a toolbar with the buttons/tools from your favorites menu. The toolbar is automatically updated when you change your favorites menu or your shortcuts to the tools from ASAP Utilities
    (Re) build the ASAP Utilities favorites menu toolbar
  • Format » Copy a sheet's page and print settings...
    Slightly improved speed. Furthermore it displays the current printer at the bottom. The speed of changing the page-setup in Excel might depend on the printer you currently have active. I will write more about this...

Bugs fixed

  • Sheets » Freeze panes on multiple sheets at once
    Improved. The wrong range was freezed when the selected range on the other sheet was not in the "visible area". This is now fixed
  • System » Save file and create backup
    Fixed the bug where in Excel 2007 the point was removed before the extention in the name of the backup. When the filename had an extension that was not 3 characters, for example xlsx in stead of xls it goes wrong. For example book1.xlsx became in the backup folder: Book1 (backup 2007-10-01 08.25.31)xlsx; no piont before xlsx.
  • General
    Fixed a few small bugs and typing errors.

Hi Bastien,

May You live 1000 years. This applies to Excel 2007. Check what happens when we hover the cursor over sub-menu 8,13,18 of "My Favourite Tools", sub-menu 5 of "Select" or sub-menu 16 of menu "Sheets". The description screen just flashes for a fraction of second and then disappears. Whereas it should remain visible like in other sub-menus.

Hello Kanwaljit,

Ik hope my wife lives 1000 year too then ;-)

Thank you for your comment.

The immediate disappearing is because the supertip/long description is apparently too long (too many lines of information). I have updated it and within a few days I will put a new version online.

Kind regards,
Bastien

Hello Kanwaljit,

I have fixed the disappearing tooltips, there are much wider now and should fit nicely on the the screen.
