Merlin 2.7.6 is available

Today we published another maintenance update for Merlin and Merlin Server.

New features in Merlin

When exporting in CSV, you can now define in which time unit the duration fields will be exported. Available options are: Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Calendarweeks, Months and Years. They can be defined in the export dialogue. The same behavior is possible for the import.

Resolved Issues in Merlin

Sometimes the Gantt-Chart did flicker during an animation of the bar.
Under some circumstances the text in the date picker was wrapped. Also the small calendar image was flipped.
If the user had defined a custom date format, entering times with leading zeros was difficult.
Projects that are linked into other projects were not synced to iCal even if the combined project was synced to iCal.
Merlin won’t accept a numeric value for a budget.
When importing MS Project 2003 files, there were issues with “eDuration” values.
Sometimes MS Project 2007 creates a special date format in XML exports. Merlin could not read these values.
Under some circumstances, changes made in iCal were not accepted in Merlin, even though the “accept changes in iCal” switch was set.
Changing the starting time of milestone was sometimes quite difficult.
When a group was copied, the group disappeared.
Passwords containing spaces or other special characters were not accepted during login.
The column widths in Merlin did not match in PDF & Print.
Under some circumstances a license file could not be interpreted correctly.
Under some circumstances Merlin could not save after resource leveling.
Changing the constraints from a milestone created a milestone with a duration.
In a very specific case, Merlin could not save on Merlin Server or a mounted file server.
A few translation issues are fixed.
