===== Version 8.0.1 (release date: 2024-09) =====

=== Major changes, a new licensing model. ===

In this version, we seperate the Padsystem Web login from the Padsystem Workstation login.

Old: Can use Padsystem without Internet. Padsystem only need Internet access upon open and/or saving a file. But the disadvantage are

1.Can only concurrently work on 3 files.

2.Files will be locked if the user does not properly logout from Padsystem, example when putting the computer in hibernation mode.

>New: We resolve the problem by checking with the server if Padsystem is online. If Padsystem could not talk to the server withing 15 minutes, we will consider the user is gone and the license can be released to another user. The advantage of this mechanisum are

1.There will be no limit on the number of files a user can work on at one time. File will be automatically release when the user is marked inactived.

2.File openning will be faster.

3.Resolve the problem in synchronise login of the Padsystem web with the Padsystem client program.

__Bugs fixed__

 1.Fixed it that when press "Alt" button ,sometimes not function for Create Curve Tool.

 2.Fixed it that when Pad export A.I file for Illustrator open ,but font cannot recognize.

 3.Fixed it that when use the function copy and paste pieces at hidden seam allowance (work on sewing line) stage,       the seam allowance will show up automatically.

 4.Fixed it that clone view function in piece list table cannot work.

 5.Fixed it that when input value in Grading Arrows Widget without selected elements, Pad App crash.
