What’s New/Fixed?
ADDED: A PDF Password dialog box, top-most, that now works in fullscreen mode.
FIXED: When loading a PDF in the supplementary tab it resets the question paper tab.
FIXED: When selecting text on the question paper PDF and then selecting text on the supplementary PDF, hitting play on either tab will not play the selected text on the opposite tab and would always play the first selection played.
FIXED: When verifying the DefaultPaths a new function has been added to check if the user has write permission, otherwise revert to a predetermined fallback path.
ADDED: Installer now creates the ExamWritePad folder in the CommonAppData (C:\ProgramData) folder so you dont have to run EWP as admin first time round.
Remember to backup your ExamWritePadSettings.json file and logo.png file before applying any upgrade/install, then afterwards replace both files and run the ExamWritePadSettings.json file in the ConFigEditorGUI app to allow it to add in any new config options.
