What's new in Oasis montaj 6.0.1?

Oasis montaj 6.0.1 is a minor release that primarily addresses bug fixes. It includes previous 6.0 HotFixes. The most serious of which were printing problems related to the print preview, printing of large maps and other general printing issues.

New Protractor Tool

New in Oasis montaj 6.0.1 is the Protractor Tool, which enables users to determine angles and can be found below the Ruler on the Map menu. The Protractor Tool can also be accessed by clicking the right mouse button while hovering over a map, and selecting Protractor from the popup menu. Also included in the 6.0.1 release is OMS, which is the command line script engine that enables users to run scripts from the command line.
