Disclaimer

SYNAXIOM does not distribute NIVOMAX Viewer setup files directly to end users. To obtain the necessary setup files, users must download a copy directly from the Technical Publications Supplier's NIVOMAX Self Serve portal, subsequent to agreeing to the terms and conditions stipulated therein. The Technical Publication Supplier, possessing a valid Distribution ID for their copy of the NIVOMAX Applications, is the sole distributor. Access to and use of the NIVOMAX Viewer is contingent upon the purchase of a Data License for a digital product from the Technical Publications Supplier. The digital product downloaded will function exclusively with the viewer provided by the respective Supplier. Users are advised that the distribution of NIVOMAX Viewer setup files may be governed by applicable export control regulations depending on their region.

Licensing

It is not necessary for end-users to purchase a separate NIVOMAX license. The Technical Publications Supplier from whom you have acquired your Data License has already procured the requisite licenses from SYNAXIOM. By extending an invitation, they include you within their authorized user pool, as permitted under their NIVOMAX license agreement. You are authorized to use the NIVOMAX software provided the Technical Publications Supplier maintains a valid NIVOMAX software license.

Resolved Issues

This release addresses the following known issues:

NIVOMAX Viewer

  • Graphics Turning Red When Hotspots Are Triggered [NMX-V-3513-1]
    Resolved an issue where certain graphics would turn entirely red when hotspots were activated. This was caused by inconsistencies in scaling adjustments when converting CGM hotspots to SVG, leading to excessive stroke values in highlighted areas. With this fix, graphical elements now maintain proper rendering when hotspots are engaged, ensuring accurate visuals and a smoother user experience.
  • Search Results in Graphics Not Opening Correctly [NMX-V-3513-2]
    Resolved an issue where search results within S1000D graphics would return valid hits, but clicking on them failed to open the corresponding section, instead displaying an error message. With this fix, users can now successfully navigate to the correct location within the graphic when selecting a search result in these libraries.

NIVOMAX Builder

  • Color Errors During CGM-to-SVG Conversion [NMX-B-324-1]
    Resolved an issue where certain CGM graphics, when converted to SVG, resulted in missing or incorrect colors due to an error when applying the color profile. This fix ensures that colors are accurately preserved during conversion, maintaining visual consistency in the output SVG graphics.
  • Date Selector Range Fix for Activity Log [NMX-B-324-2]
    Resolved an issue where the Date Selector in the Activity Log did not correctly capture the Start and End Date inclusively, leading to discrepancies in the displayed data based on the user’s timezone. With this fix the results will accurately reflect the selected date range.
  • Dynamic Maintenance Engineering Table Generation [NMX-B-324-3]
    Resolved an issue where the Maintenance Review Board Report (MRBR) table in S1000D data was not generated correctly. This caused the table to be missing when viewed in the Viewer. With this fix, the Builder now correctly processes the required data, ensuring that MRMR tables are properly generated and available for display.
