Hi everyone,

MATRIX UPGRADES

Those of you who are using Matrix might like to try Matrix V3.03 (beta)
which is now available for testing at the Matrix website on the Upgrade
page.

This upgrade has two new features to test:

1. A wizard for replacing a material such as Gerstley Borate in a recipe
with a previously prepared (by you) group of materials (recipe). The unity
formula for the replacement recipe should match as nearly as possible the
unity formula of the material being replaced in the original recipe.

2. A feature for diluting the bulk corner recipes of glazes when creating a
Currie Standard Recipe Grid. This feature has resulted from comments that
Corner glazes A and B in such grids are often too thick to dispense and
require additions of more water which ultimately results in the waste of
some of the materials.

MATRIX NEWSLETTER

I am considering the distribution of a monthly newsletter for Matrix users
and anyone else interested. If you would like to go onto a mailing for this
newsletter please reply to me personally - mailto:lewing@clear.net.nz In
your reply could you indicate whether you would prefer an html or a plain
text format.
