Updates to Rock Mass Data Analyser structure
There have been lots of recent changes to the Rock Mass Data Analyser. Some of these changes just add features, but as part of these changes we have had to re-organise how the data is structured in the app. This means that the individual databases for all of the data now come in as aliases in the root...

Changes to root structure
There has been some rearrangement to the ! folder within the root folder, which may affect some of your apps. This was primarily a move of tools which are not seismic specific from the ! folder to !/Base (so that mines without the seismic suite can use these tools). The most commonly used parts of this...
