Improvement to the way arcs are handled to ensure the correct orientation of any arc object imported from DWG, DXF or S01 files, or any file inserted via the Symbol Browser.

Introduction of a new Registry entry to solve problems associated with networked systems, where multiple machines are used with the same Windows User profile; in such cases UDPs might not appear on all machines. Computer administrators and IT staff can now define a local path for the UDP database to ensure that each machine maintains its own synchronized copy of the user's UDP database. Usage:

Location	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardraw.com Ltd\Stardraw Design 7.1
Key	UDPPath
Value Type	String Value
Valid Range	Any valid directory path
Default Value	None

Update to DXF import filter to handle Comment (999) fields. This resolves the issue where a DXF file with comments might not be recognized as a valid DXF file.

Adds support for special characters in Passwords, so Passwords can now contain any of the following characters: ! " ? $ % ^ & * + ? / \ ; : , . ` ' @ # ~

Removes obsolete Print Preview button. Print Preview is now handled exclusively through the Print dialog.

Supports edge-case where drawings of unknown type might have been created by an earlier version, i.e. SD7.0.

Improvements to USB dongle detection to resolve cases where a dongle might not be detected on first run after update.
