-----------------------------------------
*NEW in  version 1.6.0 5/5/99 *
1) New Startup options.

-----------------------------------------
*NEW in  version 1.5.91 *
1) Added Wipes for image boxes.
2) Added Page Flip (text box without scrolling)
3) AVI & Sound files may alter the speed of scroll boxes
Slowing the scroll boxes to a read-able speed with correct this.

-----------------------------------------
*NEW in  version 1.5.9  *
1) " Temptrax" temperature files can now be read. 
This can be used to 'play' the temperature
box on any monitor being run by DeBoard.
There are two text edit boxes used to add text
to the temperature display. The first box will be
displayed before the temperature and the second
will be displayed after the temperature.
NOTE: This process deletes the temperature file each
time it is read-in, thus preventing historical
temperature stats and growing file size.
 
2) Anti-alias fonts. If you use true type fonts
in a True Color mode.

The scroll and crawl box text will be boxes  
Adjustable left and right margins using a slider.

3) MIDI and some avi files are still causing
a problem. Avoid using these files with this
version.

4) DO NOT RUN at full speed in W98. There is no
method to prevent you from over-taxing the CPU
with the threads DeBoard uses. This may cause 
computers with 24 megs of ram or less to crash.
You could never read it at this speed anyway? 
If you need to run at full speed use NT4.0 (no problem).

-----------------------------------------
*NEW in  version 1.5.7 3/30/99 *
1) Outline(1-4 pixels) in the current frame color for the Crawl Line.
2) Adjustable left and right margins using a slider.
3) Minor Memory Leaks plugged.
4) Multiple monitor users:
You can now adjust some of the colors, text files and other object
properties while DeBoard is running.
See the new help file after 4/15/99 at www.drs-digitrax.com.


*NEW in  version 1.5.5 3/1/99 *

1) Multi Monitor Support
DeBoard now supports 4 video monitors.
To use this option you will need to be running Win98
and have installed and configured upto 4 video cards.
We have used no-name S3 chipset video cards with good results.
They have 4 meg of video ram each.
The cards were around $39 each from our local retailer. 

2) One additiona scroll box and two graphic/image boxes
were also added. These also required an extra editing text
box and two more image lists. 

3) Small wav files can also be played. They need to fit
into available ram however.

4) More frames have been added. They include box drop
shadows in solid and gradient colors.

5) The date/time panel can now use the long and short
date and time formats

6) Key Board keys:
a) [Esc] key can now be used to close the alignment screen
and the play screen.
b) The [space bar] will pause all scroll and image boxes.
This is a toggle.
