Features
High DPI Displays are now supported properly throughout Phoenix on Windows (OS X retina support coming soon). This is of particular usefulness with Microsoft Surface tablets where the extremely high resolution would result in small, difficult to use items in the user interface. Now Phoenix scales the user interface so things are roughly the same size regardless of your screen resolution.
Real Zooming is now done in both Barchart and Network Diagram views. Prior to this if you zoomed in or out in Barchart view only the timescale would be affected. Now when you zoom in and out the entire columns and activity diagram are zoomed too. Network Diagram is also scaled uniformly whereas before it would only scale certain parts of the activity diagram. You can still stretch the timescale independently by clicking and dragging it as you could before.
Footer Description Formatting Options have been greatly expanded. You can now change the font, color, horizontal and vertical alignment of the description.
