Modelling Updates

  • Enhanced 2D Constraints Sketching: Experience a higher level of precision with equal length and radius constraints, along with improved support for Fillet and Chamfer. Also enable easier geometry selection, trimming, and constraint dimension adjustment within a sketch saving lot of your time.
Enhanced 2D Constraints Sketching
  • Enhanced Model Repair Workflow: Easily identify problematic areas in your models with our dynamic highlighting feature. The reviewed workflow allows progressing even if resultant bodies are invalid, making model repair efficient and less complicated.
Enhanced Model Repair Workflow
  • 2D Drawing Improvements: Significant enhancements in 2D Drawing with increased flexibility, improved structure tree compatibility, enhanced filtering functionality, and a user-friendly interface. Experience seamless interaction with elements, efficient organization of components, and a highly optimized drafting workflow.
2D Drawing Improvements

General Updates

  • Duplicated Entities: The options 'Move to warnings layer' and 'Move to selected layer' have been removed, with colour filtering now recommended via the new structure tree. This results in a more streamlined command and eliminates dependency on the Layer Manager.
 
Duplicated Entities
  • DXF / DWG Groups in the Tree: 2D CAD file groups are now supported by the new structure tree, replacing the previous flat list display of elements. This enhances the usability of 2D CAD files.
DXF / DWG Groups in the Tree
  • Save Part As: The structure tree groups can now be used to define how parts are saved, fully integrating the 'Save as' feature with the new structure tree.
Save Part As
  • Show / Hide Absolute Workplane: Users can now hide the absolute workplane, providing full control over elements displayed in the graphics window.

 

Recreate Updates

  • New Automatic Surfacing Technique: Witness significant improvement in surfacing results and reduction in calculation times, thanks to our new algorithm that automatically wraps surfaces onto meshes, greatly enhancing your 3D modelling capability.
• New Automatic Surfacing Technique

Sheet Metal Updates

  • Improved Automatic Tube Recognition: Experience our innovative feature which recognizes Rectangular Hollow Section (RHS) parts even if the inner radii vary, reducing manual input and speeding up your design process.
 
Improved Automatic Tube Recognition
  • Step Files In Manufacturing Pack: Move freely between workflows with the inclusion of STEP files in the Manufacturing Pack, extending the data export in variant formats and workflows.
  • Straightened Edges for Tubes: Prepare your tube structures for practical manufacturing, even if the initial design did not account for it. Our straightened edges feature addresses edges that could be difficult to manufacture, providing realistic and feasible design results.
