Captivate v2.13 Released: Q&A with Alastair Green

现场测量软件业务总监Alastair Green answers questions about the recently released Leica Captivate v2.13 software version and how and when it is decided to release new Leica Captivate versions.

Q1. What is the latest release?
A1. Firstly, let me wish a Happy New Year to all our readers.

Next, I want to remind readers that I am only talking here aboutLeica Captivate现场测量软件。

Leica Geosystems提供多种软件供现场和办公室使用，并取决于软件，可用的时间，进行了多少开发以及依此类推，可以确定发行的频率。

对于Leica Captivate，我们的目标是每年发行几个版本。并且有不同的“类型”版本 - 有些可能包含许多新功能和一些错误修复，有些可能只包含一些新的错误修复。

我认为大多数人现在已经习惯了。智能手机应用程序定期更新 - 一些版本“大”，可能包含新功能，有些版本是“小”，并且可能主要包含错误修复。

Leica Captivate的最新版本是v2.13，是一个“小”版本，其中包含一些功能和一些错误修复。

Q2. How do people find out what is in the latest release?

我们总是写全面的发行说明以伴随发行版。发行说明可以在我的世界在与可以下载软件本身的位置相同的位置。

Q3.How does the numbering of the software work?
As with most other software companies, we use a numbering system that indicates the “size” of the release. The table below shows how this generally works with a few examples from recent releases

Q4. When are the next releases?
A4。任何软件的发行次数取决于两个关键因素：

• How long it has been available
• 发生了多少发展

Leica Captivate是Leica Geosystems的关键和重要软件，它计划在未来几年内针对具有许多新功能的多个重要版本。

Q5。软件发布的购买费用是多少？
A5. Access to updates is at no cost to customers who have invested into a CCP (Customer Care Product）是与软件相关的维护服务捆绑。

For example, amongst other benefits, a CCP also allow customers access to first-class support from our local support teams situated around the world - backed up by an excellent second-level support team here in Switzerland.
