NavCoin v4.7.0 Release Notes

Added password prompt for CFund payment/proposal dialogs

Peviously you would have to unlock the wallet via the console or debug window before it was possible to create a proposal or payment request through the graphical interface. Now there is a dialog to unlock the wallet while using the Community Fund GUI.

Use of the CoinsDB for the Community Fund

Previously the community fund data was stored in a seperate local database to the rest of the coin data. The data has now been migrated to be part of the CoinsDB which should increase performance and mitigate the data consistency issues that some users were experiencing.

Added error log tab in debug window

You can now see errors which are logged to the debug.log file in the debug window of navcoin-qt. Users no longer have to manually read or search the debug.log via command line to find error messages.

Added some new FIAT currencies and enabled auto price update

30 Fiat can now be configured as the display units through of navcoin-qt. The issue causing the sockets polling for exchange rates not to close correctly has also been resolved which prevents the wallet from eventually crashing.

Added new progress ui for sync

When the wallet starts and detects it is still catching up to the latest block a progress overlay will be presented to the user. The user can close the overlay but it is now clearer that the wallet is still syncing and the balances will be incorrect until syncing finishes.
