30/03/2009:
- fixing export issue with IE
02/03/2009:
- On the development version: in the knowledge database, you can add a comment to a diagram. Each comment can be assigned a rating from -2 to +2. You can submit your own related shot (photo taken using the same lighting setup).
26/02/2009:
- On the development version: added a custom eZ Publish trigger to auto-update the diagram image when the object is sent for publishing.

.
23/02/2009:

.
- On the development version: few fixes including missing mic-3, mic-30 and mixer images and re-developing the positioning algorithm of the default diagram.

31/01/2009:
- The rotation button has changed into two ones: clockwise and anti-clockwise.
30/01/2009:
- Some debugging done for IE. Still some issue with PNG transparency with IE6.
- Added a new button to generate a bookmarkable URL to save/share your diagram without saving as a JPEG.
29/01/2009:
- You can now, finally, save diagrams into JPEG files: combines javascript to generate the object lists along with coordinates, rotation angle and layer assignments and PHP code to build the JPEG image.
28/01/2009:
- It is now possible to embed the tool on an external website with an iFrame code. But this is not released yet.
- new control buttons added to the control bar: move the object and duplicate the object. In FireFox, moving the object by dragging the move button will solve the little moving behaviour problem.
- the control bar is now on the image and will appear whenever the mouse is hovering on the object not just on the control bar location.
27/01/2009:
- Extraction and generation of open source image set from antic_eye
- Generation of image for sound engineering. Some images are pending for approval from their author.

- Extraction and generation of umbrella and v-card sets from Don's PSD
24/01/2009:
- Kevin Kertz denied the permission to use his PSD content

's Lighting Diagram PSD file: extracting each object and generate a library of rotated version of each object as PNG files.
- Use of Ajax code from Matthias Hertel

- Use of a Javascript code found here
.
- Adding rotation + layer switching feature to each object.
- Create an eZ Publish
extension ezlightingdiagram to integrate the tool within my website: module view + template override to use in a node.
