Version 24.11.6
ExamWritePad 24.11.6 (Windows)
What’s changed?
Fixed “Setting the Signature Appearance to ‘Last Page’ doesn’t work”. Only the first page header/footer can be different from the remaining pages. ExamWritePad and ConfigEditorGUI have both been updated so that the previous options now only reflect what can be achieved. 0 = Disabled, 1= First Page Only, 2 = All Pages (Older configs with the value 3 for ‘All Pages’ will still work as normal).
Fixed “Password protected PDF’s fail to load within the PDF Reader.” Now works as expected for both PDF reader tabs. In addition to this, the buttons to Save PDF, Print PDF and Rotate PDF have been hidden from view when a Password PDF has been loaded because most (if not all) exam boards will want those restrictions in place/preserved.
Fixed “The option to require a ‘Password on Exit’ in order to close ExamWritePad when the options ‘MP3Player_StartFullScreenPlayerOnly’and ‘PDFReader_StartFullScreenPlayersOnly’ were used, did not prompt for a password when trying to exit.” This issue has been fixed and now prompts for a password on exit as expected.
Fixed when displaying only the MP3 Player you would still see the RibbonBar.
Fixed when using the ALT+F4 keys would proceed to close the app and not display the password box.
