Question

I am about to upgrade to the latest version of OpenBuildings Designer.   How I can find out what type of changes were made to the delivered datasets so I can plan accordingly?


Answer

While we always attempt to keep the schema and general dataset changes between versions to a minimum so that users can more efficiently migrate their customizations, new and enhanced tools and functionality usually require changes in the respective datasets. These dataset changes between the new and previous version of OpenBuildings Designer are documented in a dataset “delta” PDF document included in the base folder of the dataset, and includes additions, removals and modifications to existing dataset files. For example:
