• Updated the help section to include all the new functions.
• Fixed a minor bug which made the “Go To Personal Folder” option in the main menu, go to the installation folder instead of the personal folder.
-----The setup file: (since 2.2)
If you have 2.2 installed it will ask you to uninstall the application, do this, repair will not work (at least it didn’t for me). Uninstalling and then installing the new version will work.
Important for people with and older version of MXS BSA! (2.1):
You can leave the old MXS Bike Setup Application.exe (version 2.1 and older) in the personal folder for now(as a back-up maybe), it will not interfere with the newly installed version. You do have to remember however that the installation creates its own shortcuts, so remove the old shortcut from your desktop (or wherever you placed it).
Using the old shortcut will result in using the old application (obviously:)).
The setup file will install several things on your pc.
First of all the application, which has the same functionality but can now access the MXS Setups folder and config file from anywhere on your pc.
The MXS Setups folder will remain in the personal folder so after installation everything is ready for use.
An icon will also be installed which is used by the shortcuts and the application.
And last but not least, a folder with the help files will be installed.
These are .htm files that are used by the application but can also be opened with any web browser to view them outside of the application.
-----Copy/Paste Functionality:
copy/paste setups from and to anywhere
(as long as they have the formatting like in the config file).
From the applications’ help section:
Copy:
The purpose of this feature is to allow you to copy any setup and then paste it as text on, for example, a forum or in a text editor.
So there will be no more need to copy the setup out of the config file.
How:
This feature can be accessed in a number of different ways.
1. Select a setup on the overview, then press the ctrl+c shortcut keys.
2. Select a setup on the overview, then click the “Copy Selected Setup To Clipboard” option in the “Overview Options” menu.
3. Right-click on a setup on the overview, then select the “Copy Selected Setup To Clipboard” in the menu.
Paste:
This is basically the opposite function of the copy.
For example:
Someone posts a setup you would like to try on a forum. Whether this posted setup is copied out of a config file or a MXS Bike Setup Application does not matter.
Just copy the setup from that forum and paste it into the setup editor using one of the methods listed below.
The application reads the lines pasted into the application, when it recognizes a line belonging to a setting it will automatically enter the value into the text box.
It is not necessary for all the lines to be present, the application loads whichever lines it recognizes. Lines with no text or text that it doesn’t recognize are ignored.
For example, the following text can be pasted into the setup editor without problems:
Dit=een
roll_damping=50.000000
test
roll_limit_angle=70.000000
The result will be that the application picks out the roll damping and roll limit angle, and enters their values into the textboxes.
The rest of the text gets ignored.
After the settings are pasted into the textboxes you can continue creating or editing the setup like normal.
How:
There are several ways to paste the setup into the setup editor.
1. Place the cursor into one of the textboxes, then press the crtl+v shortcut keys.
2. In the “Setup Editor Options” menu select the “Paste Setup From Clipboard” option.
3. Right-click anywhere on the setup editor tab, then click the “Paste Setup From Clipboard” option.
