    If you are upgrading to Windows 8, you will need to download and run this Install Program to activate the KEYLOK dongles.

     

    Installation Trouble-shooting

     
    From the KEYLOK website:

    To resolve 95% of installation snafus, follow these steps using our new Install Utility (Version 2014.3.2):

    1. Verify that the USB dongle is not plugged in.
    2. Run Install /b (install USB), or select USB from the Install GUI.
    3. Insert dongle when prompted.
    4. {Pre-Vista systems) Let the ‘Add New Hardware Wizard’ run.
    5. If any problems occur, view the log file [kl2log.htm] for details. It’s located in the same directory as the install.exe.

    It is no longer necessary to run an ‘uninstall’ before reinstalling if an end-user inserts the dongle before installing the KEYLOK driver.

    TETRAD Tables module

    tt_TextFileStart
     

    Side-by-side graphs

    Multiple Graph can now display side-by-side graphs of data that share a common axis, usually depth:

    gxw_2MGraph3

    The two side-by-side graphs revert to single graph if the dependent axes have same unit type.

    Graphs

    • Enhanced zoom: zoom all directions (all axes) or zoom independent axis only .
    • Draggable axes in Quick Graph and Multiple Graph .
    • Set axis increment to 0 to get good axis labels for normal graph and zoomed graph.
    • Logarithmic axis labels improved; adjust axis labels by setting Increment.

    And

    In the Multiple Graph Group window, you can now select more than one field by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking.

    In the Column Ordering and Visibility window, you can now select more than one field by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking. WellSim remembers the order that you Ctrl-click the fields and moves the fields in this order.

    Database version changed from 8 to 9 for the new TETRAD module.
