A new NPR button has been added to allow navigation to the NPR information and back to the Parts List for easier editing of information.

Enhancements to the process of displaying graphics have been added. Also certain graphic display problems encountered in the previous releases have been corrected.
Configuration screen uses the arrangement number to determine which parts book to display. The configuration screen will only be displayed when more than one parts book is applicable to the serial number/arrangement number entered.
The right mouse button has a new feature added to use in the parts identification screen. When the arrow is on a parts line in the consists, the system allows the user to change the order quantity on the part, display reman parts, navigate to separate illustration or NPR.
