Additional Improvements
New Command in Console Mode: One new upgrade that may interest our more advanced users is the addition of a command in the console mode that will allow you to look at derivatives of Gibbs energy.
Automatic Updates: Starting with the Thermo-Calc 2015a release, users will be able to set their program to receive automatic updates. The new feature will make it easier for users to receive bug fixes between releases and maintain the most current updates and improvements. If users prefer not to receive updates automatically, they will be able to check for updates when starting the program or manually at their convenience.
Change Diagram Type Mid-Project: Thermo-Calc 2015a will allow users to change the type of diagram you are working with in the middle of a project. For instance, you will be able to switch from a property diagram to a phase diagram without losing any of your information.
New Ordering Model: Thermo-Calc 2015a includes a valuable time-saver for database managers as the Four Substitutional-Sublattice Ordering Model has been rebuilt so that it will now function for all parameters.
A complete explanation of these and all the other upgrades will be provided with the software update.
