It has been noticed on ' MS Visual Studio ' after three days of work without closing :) 0.2.8. + Add: New bookmark 'TCP/UDP'. While only with XP and later, all because of iphlpapi.dll. But, probably it will be possible to make and for W2k, through the interface ' \Device \TCP ', ' \Device \Udp '... 0.2.9. * Fix: Cosmetic changes in a code of a plugin (optimization of a code).

There was an opportunity to operate in scale of display, to operate deduced objects. The screen is divided into areas of management: ----------------------------------------------- | | | | | A | | Ñ | |-----------| |----------------| | ------------------ | |-------- | | -------------| | F | | E | | G | |-------- | | -------------| | ------------------ | |-----------| |----------------| | B | | D | | | | | ----------------------------------------------- A,B - Left/right cliques/keepings of the mouse at a Y-scale - increase/reduction in a scale. F - Left cliques leads to automatic scaling on a minimum/maximum of a signal. Right cliques leads to scaling on the maximal-set values for the schedule. Ñ - Left cliques - inclusion/deenergizing of an additional screen of the schedule of history. D - Left cliques - inclusion/deenergizing of a conclusion of the summary-information.
