Charts changed from linear to bar charts
Dashboard chart
The dashboard chart now uses a logarithmic scale to visualize the number of found references better. 
For administrators only:
Search profile execution chart
The chart is cleaned of other information as the "family count" now is displayed in the price list chart. The execution chart (see below) therefore only displays the total amount of resolved references added to IPsurvey by this search profile. Each bar displays the accumulated number of resolved references on a specific day within the last 12 months. To see the exact number of resolved references added on a specific day e.g. 31 of January once has to subtract the resolved references on the 30 of January.
Price list chart
The chart displayes both the total amount of families (used for invoicing) and the trend-line. It displays a period of 12 months following the invoice period.
Espacenet link replaced with PVSonline link for Danish references
When a Danish reference can be found in our own public database (PVSonline) then IPsurvey will display a link to PVSonline instead of Espacenet. In PVSonline the complete file wrapper including all publication types (A,B) is available only 4 days after publication.
The link in detailed view points to http://onlineweb.dkpto.dk/pvsonline and when clicked upon the related reference opens in a new browser window (see below). Here is an example of such link

Recycle bin
The user specific recycle bin allows users to delete references and if necessary to recover them again from the recycle bin. As the recycle bin is user specific, a reference is only deleted for this particular user.
References can both be deleted from list view and detailed view. The recycle bin is only visible in the left menu when it contains at least one deleted reference and the total number of deleted references is always displayed.
The deleted references are listed in the recycle bin, in list view and from the "Tools" menu it is possible to define with fields are displayed <show/hide columns>.
Deleting references:
List view
In list view, mark the reference(s) to be deleted and choose in the "Tools" menu "Delete Selected Reference(s)" or use the short cut (D):
Detailed view
To delete references in detailed view, click on the "delete" icon in the top right corner.
To avoid deleting a reference(s) by mistake, the user has to accept to move the reference(s) by clicking "OK" in the pop-up box, independently of with method used when deleting.
Restoring reference(s):
List view:
To restore a reference(s) from list view, mark the reference(s) and choose "Restore Selected Reference(s)" from the "Tools" menu.
Detailed view:
To restore a single reference from detailed view (opened from list view in the recycle bin) click on "restore" in the upper right corner. The title is strikethrough and the date and time for deletion is added to all the references in the recycle bin.
Search terms highlight in the search result
When searching in a IPSurvey database <Left menu><Search>, the search terms are highlighted in list view, to clarify why the reference(s) was found by the search.
Lists layout are saved when editing departments under the <Users and departments> menu
Following users request, the columns order and columns sizes for all list views are saved when administrating users and/or departments in the left menu <Administration><Users and departments> tab.
Enabled word wrap for all columns in the reference list view
In list view all columns are word wrapped properly, including dates and reference number, compared to the older versions where only title and abstract columns were word wrapped.
Bug fixed: Wrong number in the status report compared with the counter "New since last report" on the dashboard
The number in the status report and the counter on the dashboard now match again.
Bug fixed: Not able to scroll in dropdown menus
When e.g. assigning references to a department is it posibble to the scroll in the dropdown menu.
