When I open an old preset file I get the following error message: "Error: The data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1." A. Batch Compiler v3.X.X is not backwards compatible with Batch Compiler v2.X.X. This means that old preset files will not work and you will have to recreate them. Q. How can I convert a preset I've saved using one specification file to a preset of another specification file? A. This can be accomplished by importing the preset. To do this: 1. From the 'Specifications' menu select the specification file you would like to convert the preset to. 2. From the 'File' menu select 'Import Preset'. 3. Browse to and open the preset you would like to convert from. ================== Program Changelog: ================== v3.1.2 - Changed compile shortcut to Ctrl-R to avoid conflicts. - Added context menu shell execution options for the target file. v3.1.1 - Improved Option Form path browsing. - Fixed NotePad detection for automatic setup. v3.1.0 - Added new Variable element to specifications. - Added Command List Batches to toggleable stage list. - Added "Shared With" line to option tool tip text. - Upgraded to Automatic Update library. - Fixed "Remember File" bug. - Updated Nem's Tools link. - Other small changes. v3.0.0 - Rewrote application in C#. - Enhanced and standardized specification format. - Added web based specification auto update control. - Added support for several tools through specifications. ============================== Program Copyright-Permissions: ============================== LICENSE Terms and Conditions for Copying, Distributing, and Modifying Items other than copying, distributing, and modifying the Content with which this license was distributed (such as using, etc.) are outside the scope of this license. 1.
