The latest version should update automatically without you having to do anything at all.
Assuming you're not running it on a machine isolated from the internet. (Yes, such things do exist!)
Also, and maybe this is related to the fact that having a 'partial' memory layout (although in this case I downloaded the official ones, but maybe they were improved, I'll have to check) I'm still having problems with the Beekeeping not seeming to agree with the skill of that name, and I think Waxcrafting is totally absent. (As I might have hinted, this is on a machine that's offline. As such, I keep forgetting to compare and contrast the latest online information with what that machine's got in its configuration.)
I've also totally failed to make a custom view (leastwise non-empty) in all the time I've used DT. I've got
this page permanently bookmarked, but it hasn't been updated for a while. I'm wondering if it's because I messed up a previous attempt to add in a new tab (when "Military" came in, as a tab, I had to rename my custom one called "Military", which I had never gotten working and could only be hidden, not completely removed). I keep meaning to check if it stored this failure in the registry, as one of the few places it could possibly be so universally (mis)configured so as to be persistent between subsequent unpacked versions.
Just so you know, I was really wanting to make a view similar to the (now) standard Military one, but without the Siege stuff and the new Teacher/Student pairing added in as well as some quasi-military skills and attributes. Also (if possible, but I'm sure it should be, from what I've seen), something to indicate if there are any blood relatives or pets in that dwarfs life. You know what, now that you've reminded me that I actually want to ask these questions, I really need to actually search the forums to see if these are FAQs.
