Changes: This service release, aside from many fixes and improvements, also brings new features like "User Mode" that makes it easy to deploy Kexi applications, and a much extended "Assign action" command for buttons in a form. In the Table Designer, many actions no longer require removing data from tables. "Add column" and "Delete column" external tools for editing table columns in a .kexi database file without removing data from them have been introduced. Kexi now supports multiple (joined) visible columns in the combo box widget, so (for instance) it can display name and surname.
