This release involves updates to Recorder Sets and Functional Unit Areas.

Recorder Sets 

You can now easily switch between groups of recorders by using recorder sets. Similar to scenario input sets, they can be created from existing recorder configurations, specified manually using the text editor, or from a file. To access configuration, select  Edit >> Recorder Sets.

Configuration Options 

Enable recorders manually in the project hierarchy and parameter pane, and select Edit >> Recorder Sets, right click on the scenario name and select Create Current Recorder Set

You can specify manually using the inbuilt text editor. Select Edit >> Recorder Sets, right click on the desired scenario and select Add Empty Recorder Set. Text configuration can also be read directly from an external text file with reload on run enabled, by selecting the File instead of the Manual configuration option.

Multiple recorder sets can be enabled and recorded in a model run.  

Normalise Functional Unit (FU) Areas

Normalise function unit functionality quickly and easily ensures that functional unit areas cover 100% of their sub-catchments.

There can be minor differences between existing catchment outlines and the extent of the FU layer being used when loading Functional Unit areas using another spatial layer, with the result that FU areas do not always sum to exactly to 100% of a sub-catchment area. This can cause an issue, even if the difference is very small and hidden from the user because of rounding. We've implemented a solution that is fast and easy to use - the new 'Normalize Area Ratios' button will automatically allocate this difference pro rata across all the FUs so that the areas will add up to 100% of the sub-catchment.
