We are pleased to announce the release of Micromine 2018 Service Pack 2, which is available on the Micromine download page.

Service Pack 2 addresses the following bugs and enhancements:

Resolved a problem where Refresh All in the Display Pane did not refresh shapes within groups.

A new version of the Network Licence Server Software, which addresses several networking issues, is available. We recommend that all network users install the latest version.

FLOAT (single-precision) fields are deprecated in File Create/Modify and are no longer recommended. The conversion from FLOAT to REAL (double precision) has been improved to avoid numerical inconsistencies in downstream calculations.
Fixed a problem where colours in the File Editor header row lacked contrast and made the text hard to read.
Restored behaviour where a column highlighted in File Editor is selected in a sort operation.

Resolved a Unicode bug when exporting a block model to CSV.

Fixed several bugs related to High DPI scaling of text, buttons, and icons.
Fixed a bug where the Shewhart control chart was flagging incorrect points for Nelson rule 5.
Resolved an issue where the semi variogram map palette displayed mark-up instead of colours.

Fixed a problem where Drillhole Graph calculated a minimum of zero in Natural Log mode.
Resolved a bug in Drillhole grade compositing where max total and consecutive length of waste were always disabled.
Restored snapping feedback in drillhole planning when placing the collar.
When the number of decimals is not specified, Interval Labels now show the value as formatted in the File Editor.

Fixed a problem where Grid | Create would not work with a filter applied.

Fixed several bugs related to applying extents and rotation from a template.
Improved the interactive Block Model Extents workflow, which now locks the extents to a template block model if present.
Enhanced interactive Search Ellipsoid by adding measurement feedback.
Fixed a potential crash when auto-calculating a downhole variogram; improved behaviour when custom chart extents were enabled.

Restored missing Slice area attribute to Wireframe Properties.
Fixed an issue where Coordinate System Conversion (Wireframe) would not save the output wireframe
Fixed a problem where mismatched wireframe attributes would display a colour selection instead of allowing users to edit the field.

Fixed an issue in Convert Coordinates Between | Setup where Local To and From coordinate systems were stored in different form controls.

Resolved an issue where Grade control would not use density from file.
Fixed a problem where Charge calculation would not restrict the report by hole type.
Made improvements to Sidewall to Solid.
