New or Enhanced Features

The following features have been added or enhanced in Spectra 2014:

Feature Description
Credit Card Payments

When creating or modifying a Credit Card Payment, Spectra will now warn the user if the amount charged exceeds the open balance of the invoice.

New Retouching abilities for a Copied Image

When retouching an image that was copied from another image, Spectra will now prompt, asking if you want to retouch the original source image or a copy of the original image.

For example, if you made a copy of the preview so you could show a color and a sepia version of the same image, then you would probably want to retouch the original image so that you only have to retouch the image once for both versions of this image. However, if you want to create an artistic effect on this image, then you probably want to make a copy of the original image first, and then retouch the copy, leaving the original image untouched.

Image Ordering

Either in the Sales Presentation or the Invoice, users can now select multiple images, double-click on a product in the tree, and then Spectra will add a new line item to the invoice for each image selected for this product.
