Release Notes
5.4.16.753: Jun 02 2016
Windows GUI: Diff configuration for Office files: Updated 'diff' scripts for Office Word, Excel and Powerpoint to support newer versions of Office.
Supported versions: From Office 2007 (except Powerpoint 2007) to Office 2016.
Added a new diff script for 'Open Office Writer'. The Open Office Writer diff script is automatically configured on new installations.
If you already have diff tools configured, you can configure the diff tool by adding the following line to your 'client.conf' file in the 'DiffTools' section as follows:
<DiffToolData>
<FileExtensions>.odt;.ods</FileExtensions>
<Tools>
<string>wscript.exe "C:/Program Files/PlasticSCM/client/diffscripts/diff-odt.vbs" "@sourcefile" "@destinationfile" //E:vbscript</string>
</Tools>
</DiffToolData>
Remember to add it with a higher priority than the default binary diff tool. You can also configure it on the 'Diff Tools' tab in the 'Preferences' dialog form Plastic SCM GUI for Windows.
Mac OS Server Installer: Updated server log configuration file. This new config file allows to classify log messages in different files according to their severity.
Linux GUI (GTK) and Mac OS GUI: Added 'Delete changeset' context menu option to 'Changesets' and 'Branch Explorer' views. This new option is available inside 'Advanced options' submenu.
Gluon: The 'History' panel on the 'Checkin' view was not properly refreshed when the lock of the modified file was kept after the checkin operation. Fixed.
Axosoft OnTime issue tracker: Fixed connectivity issues between OnTime issue tracker extension and the OnTime API.
P4 sync: Improved the way the sync process calculates whether the p4 user has enough privileges to push plasticscm changesets into p4 depot. Moreover, this check is omitted if no extra privileges are required (flag --bypassmetadatatocomment is passed as argument to the cm sync command in order to write username and date on p4 changelist comments instead of their metadata fields).
Windows Mergetool: Fixed a localization issue in the mergetool options menu.
