- it's possible to drag a stored filter or a folder of stored filters from e.g. Windows Explorer and drop it into Complex Filter window
- better memory utilization when using many (100+) History levels
- tooltip in Package Winnings window shows the most recent matching draw
- What-If numbers (if any) are preselected in Check Past Winnings window
- small bug fixes

Also when you finish this update the application will silently download and install some infrastructure libraries that the Expert Lotto is built on top of. Please report any problems you may encounter.

Hello Stan

Post update, my complex filters will not load properly. It just looks like a page of code - please see screenshot.

Thanks

Sherlock

Very nice thanks.

I too get pop ups error messages,

I had no problem with complex filters.

btw, I got error message after I clicked the Performance tab

Hi Stan,

Thanks you for the superb updates! Works great here.

At those experiencing any issues (in mine the complex filter wasn't loading up correctly as in the attachment below) - just close EL, restart it for a second or third time and see if this solves any issues.

Regards

I'll fix that, thanks for reporting it.

The problem with complex filters and custom analyzers should be temporary only. Once the application downloads and installs all library updates it should work fine again.
But I'll upload a new app update to fix it anyway.

Hi Stan,
I shut down the dev build while this was happening and now the program shuts down halfway during start up.
Have re-downloaded the latest dev build, but no joy.

Stan - I've launched EL5 a second time, and the complex filters are now fine.

With the option to increase the number of decimal places (for Winning Number Properties, Ticket Index Movement) I'm getting the error message, <err>, if I try to go above six decimal places.

An error report was generated when I launched the programme a third time, which I've emailed to you.

Thanks

Sherlock.

Fixed in the new app update that I've just uploaded. Thanks for reporting it.

Please open folder c:\users\<your user name>\application data\roaming\.expertlotto\devx\var\log and email me messages.log file from that folder.

A quick fix to your problem is removing folder c:\users\<your user name>\application data\roaming\.expertlotto\devx\, download and extract the dev build ZIP archive.

Thanks Stan, but as at 8.50pm, my application is not recognising that a further update is available.

Ok, try again now, please.
