graphics
files from one format to another.

by turning off the checkbox. |

by holding down the <shift> key while clicking on
the checkbox to the left of the folder name. |

option "Buzz Tools->Extract Zip'd Files"
will now process the contents
of any selected zip files. Previously the contents of the

of zip files that were in subfolders
below the current folder were
not processed. |
|
|
Embroidery Edition Only: The
programs "VIP customizing", "VIP reader/writer",
and "Amazing Box /Dream Box / Magic Box" have
been added as choices in the "View->Options->File
Associations->Open Settings->Open With->Program
Name" field, so that these programs can be launched
by double-clicking on a design. These program choices have
not yet been added to the BuzzXplore Setup program, so they
must be configured from within BuzzXplore.
PLEASE NOTE: This does not add
the file format VIP.
|
|
|
Embroidery Edition Only:
Enhanced double-click support added for the PSW version
2 software. To use BuzzXplore's open routine, set your
