Version 7.1.1

Version 7.1.1

Released 26 June 2024

Enhanced utility for assigning access rights to Hydrology+ database

The program “GrantRightsFM.exe”, which runs as part of the Flood Modeller software install, allows users other than the installer account to access the Hydrology+ database, e.g. in cases where an IT administrator has run the installation on behalf of the user. It was found that in v7.1.0 (and earlier versions) this was not working for selected IT setups. The revised version in Flood Modeller v7.1.1 should work for a greater majority of users.

User interface layout bug

It was found that installing v7.1.0 over v7.0 caused an issue with two Hydrology+ data tables not displaying. These were:

1. The table displaying the summary of available FEH catchment descriptors

2. The table listing the calculation points defined within the selected Hydrology+ project

Both tables should be displayed below the map view (in the default display layout).

The issue could be fixed within v7.1.0 by copying the Flood Modeller installation folder, “C:\Program Files\Flood Modeller”, to a new location or simply renaming this folder to something other than “Flood Modeller”. However, for many users restricted administrative rights means this is not an option. The issue has now been in fixed for all users in v7.1.1.
