Vista-Windows 7.0XX Changes/Updates from 7.000

Version 7.001 [Oct 29 - 2007]
 Altered time-variant scaling to properly handle older TVScale flow commands.
 Problem with program when checking ftp site and version is current.
 Added in new signal enhancement flow command FNoise for 2D data.
 Added new white noise suppression flow command WNoise.
 VISTA Batch program indicates incorrect version.
 Check updated help for more information.

Version 7.002 [Nov 1 - 2007]

 In Batch Window add ability to set selected flows Mode and Server. These list are also used as the default for
any add flows to the Batch window.
 Fixed problem in VISTAPE program when combing multiple SEG-Y disk files. Possibility of missing some traces
on output.

Version 7.003 [Nov 2 - 2007]

 Fixed problem related to Batch window when adding flows and setting Server mode. Not setting to module or
Server to user defined setting.
 Altered programmer interface to handle more information passed to User programs.

Version 7.004 [Nov 7 - 2007]

 Update User Program to correct fix from 7.003
 Enhancement to 3D FXY for interpolation of dead traces.

Version 7.005 [Nov 13 - 2007]

 Fix problem in Flow window not allowing user to delete created flow variable strings.
 Add more error checks to variable string definitions.
 Fixed display in VSP Profile. Not displaying last interval velocity point.
 Add seismic data name to Edit/Define mapping window.
 Add ability to clear mapping list from Edit/Define mapping window.
 New options in stacking. Added N + X(User defined) for normalization of 1 / N. And added N raised to user
defined power(0.5 for sqrt).

Version 7.007 [Nov 14 - 2007]

 Fixed possible problem with updating attached keys.
 Problem in Vistape program when writing multiple SEG-Y disk files out to tape.

Version 7.008 [Nov 16 - 2007]

 Problem in VISTA program when calculating MP factor on Sercel 428 records.
 Added in variable string definitions to Filter commands.

Version 7.009 [Dec 6 - 2007]

 Fixed problem with annotation graph display when in continuous ensemble display. Graph would not display at
all.
 Problem in fixed window scaling flow command. Possibility of bad scalar if trace is zero and not marked as dead.
 Problem when opening Vista Command window with soft key licensing. Window would take a noticeable amount
of time to open. This has been fixed.
 Not able to turn About Box off using check box.
Version 7.010 [Dec10 - 2007]
 In the Project Data List Vista will not let a user add data from a project which needs fixing to import. Previous to
this version VISTA would crash when adding in the data. A project needs fixing if it’s directory location does not
match it’s creation location.
 Problem in Version 7.009 with losing Soft key licensing when updating.
 Fixed crash problem in Dictionary editing/viewing window when trying to perform the Text View function.

Version 7.011 [Dec 21 - 2007]

 New flow command Int3DXY which can fill in headers by 3D interpolate and extrapolation based on an input
ASCII header file.
 Problem in TVScale when using the scaling time header option. Program did not correct follow the time from the
header word.
 Fixed problem in Wave by Wave in regards to Trace Weight Calculation in ms.

Version 7.012 [Jan 15 - 2007]

 Add option in TVScale to adjust scaling times by start of first sample.
 Possible problem in WNoise if data moved entirely out of window.
 Fixed problem in attribute display when selecting single CMP bins.

Version 7.014 [Jan 15 - 2007]

 Fixed problem in Tape SEG-D disk reading. May have some problems with larger SEG-D disk files.

Version 7.015 [Jan 22 - 2007]

 Move flow commands WNoise 2D & WNoise 3D into the Signal Enhancement group.
 New command 2DFill which fills in missing CDP’s for 2D stacked data set.
 Fixed possible problem in 2D Geometry when writing out offset header word. If data set has 2D Marine option
turned on(Checked) stations close to shot may have incorrect sign calculated.
 Flow dialogs in multi-display window could possible display partial off the screen. This affect has been fixed.
 New option in seismic display window when zoomed in to a set of traces. Oversampling allows the program to
better display the seismic trace when tightly zoomed into the window. Press ‘O’ key to toggle this option.

Version 7.016 [Jan 23 - 2007]

 Add new options to flow commands to allow user to LOCK the Help Parameters window. Turn them on and lock
them on the command. Can use RMB(Right Mouse Button) in flow window to remove all LOCKED help
parameter windows.
 Problem in VISTAPE when trying to demuxing blocked seismic data(Data blocks written out in smaller blocks).
Program would skip ever second record.
 Possible issues with getting flow files from Project data list and crashes when user tries to save.
 Addressed issue of 2D licensing in Time to Depth(Stretch) conversion. Command will run with 2D license if input
data set is 2D.
 Notes in project data list not always saved properly.

Version 7.017 [Jan 28 - 2007]

 Problem in Ensemble scaling, scalar not properly calculated.
 Add in option in flow window to toggle display of flow command help parameter windows.
 WNoise3D not properly honoring the user defined parameters.

Version 7.018 [Jan 28 - 2007]

 Crash when syncing multiple Seismic Windows in version 7.017. Fixed in this release.

Version 7.019 [Jan 30 - 2007]

 Fixed possible problem in running VelZone on CMPS outside of input data set. May cause crash to occur.
 Edit Mapping window altered to enhancement it’s features to the user.
  Problem in Interactive Velocity window if input data sets(Semblance/Offset/CVS) names are long. Then problem
occurs when user inputs an existing flow file.
 Fixed rare crash in Velocity display window when writing defined velocity to Vista velocity file. Could cause Vista
to crash on some occasions.
 Problem fixed in Vistape program when converting SEG-D disk file containing multiple records.
 Fixed problem in 2D Continuous velocity picking window to scroll to each velocity panel properly. Also added
ability to use keyboard cursor to control panel display.

Version 7.020 [Feb 4 - 2007]

 Problem in Vista ftp updater, program ignores users response and download/installs are files.
 Fixed problem in Seismic Compare (Seismic Window) when removing data sets from the list.

Version 7.021 [Feb 6 - 2007]

 Added new window to Image analysis in Movie mode. Displays velocities for current CMP(Also previous and
Next) along with Interval velocity. Adjusted toolbar to indicate mouse mode(Pick / Zoom / Delete).
 Modified Elevation / Refraction Statics window to reset control files for shot /receiver selections. Circle selection
is based on Source / Receiver sequence number. This number may
 Problem in Dynamic windows in Time-variant scaling when using the first live sample. Program did not detect
this option properly.
 Adjusted Read into Column ASCII Import(View/Edit Header Window) to handle large input ASCII files input
without failing on memory error.
 Problem in SEG-Y SCSI tape reading when running in batch. Batch worked on remote machines but had trouble
on running on local drive.

Version 7.022 [Feb 11 - 2007]

 Problem in Vistape when reading SCSI tape and outputting Vanguard format files. The files are corrupted at the
start of the data blocks.
 Possible problem when reading tapes from flow batch window. Incorrect block length read. Only occurs in flow
window and not from Vistape program.
 Scaling problem in FK-FX filtering problem. Mismatch between input and output result.
