MicroGDS 2010 SP1 is the latest upgrade to MicroGDS 2010 EL and MicroGDS 2010 C. Changes at 2010 SP1 (verison 11.1.1) ==================================== - Some CadLink functions are much quicker - Bug fixes: - Cross-document photos have been improved - Project Template directory paths in settings files are now relativised - Edit Many Paths only processes a primitive once if present in more than one phase of a window - Set Edit Pick zooms about the correct point - Blocks containing holes could be drawn incorrectly in rare cases - With the right mouse button set to Box snap, you can select more than one text block (using Shift) - Copy preserving layers now immediately shows the result in the Mini Window Editor - When creating a pattern linestyle, the drop-down list of symbols is correct if the font was DEFAULT - The Profile drop-down list was not shown correctly at start-up - Object Scale no longer reports "Graphics would be moved off extents" - Photo Burn In no longer ignores phase overrides - MicroGDS EL confirms attempts to overwrite a previously defined Material API - Cad.TBarVisible could place status bars off screen - Cad.AddMenuCommand did not add separators - includes all changes from earlier MicroGDS 2010 upgrades as below Changes at 2010 SP1 (11.1) ========================== - Application Development Kit (ADK) The ADK is a .NET library which lets you add commands to MicroGDS and build applications that are powered by MicroGDS. MicroGDS 2010 SP1 completes the ADK, making it a powerful tool for rapid development of CAD applications. The ADK handles the graphics, geometry and database needs so you can use your industry expertise to develop applications for your business and for your customers. - Upgrade to Lightworks(tm) 8.2 - Upgrade to Teigha(tm) for .dwg files 3.03 (formerly OpenDWG) - Improved preference settings files - Improved menu editing and custom command mechanism - Improved error reporting mechanism - Choose whether dimensions are rounded to nearest or towards zero - Moved settings for Renderer Image size from Preference Dialog to Render Options dialog - File > Style Search Path... command (and the Problems dialog) can set the style search path for multi-user projects as well as single-user drawing files - Add support for wall surface materials to BIM Walls - Bug fixes: - Importing a Sketchup file could use duplicate layer link numbers - Fixes to raster photo boundaries - Fixes to the advanced section of phase filters - Improve checking in Batch Print for views fitting on paper - Backspace was not working correctly with Dimensions DWG/DXF - Improve publish to DWG (clipping of nested photos and text height). - Allow lowercase characters in attribute tag names for entity mapping for dxf/dwg translation - Fix writing of WIPEOUT entities to DXF Renderer - Render Window centres the rendered-image within the window - Render View now tracks the Window view - Increased range of angles acceptable for perspective views API - CF.QAliasOpen did not work for renderer aliases Installation - Fonts folder has moved to COMMONAPPDATA so that ADK developers can find it whether on 32-bit or 64-bit BIM - Mirrored walls and doors have been enhanced - includes all changes from earlier MicroGDS 2010 upgrades as below Changes at 2010 v11.0.1 ======================= General ------- A problem that meant R/ and R\ prefixes in inclusion list processing did not work has been corrected. Custom commands added to menus no longer fail to operate after a new document is opened. Clumps corrupted by Alter Reverse, Alter Mirror, mirrored instances... Text blocks with an applied linestyle were treated in a different manner from MicroGDS 10. Export to DWG no longer gives the error: Invalid group code. With Set Edit set to an object filter, objects could not be selected by snapping. Using Alter Path Move on a rectangular photo (Window) primitive now clips the photo correctly. Drag & ctrl-drop a layer in the layer tab of the Document Organizer could sometimes give a "Not called" error message. This has now been fixed. IME now correctly identifies the window with which it is associated. A problem where opening a file with missing linestyles could hang MicroGDS indefin1tely has been fixed. BIM --- Changing IfcDoor panel sizes no longer causes MicroGDS to crash. A problem with using Alter Transform Mirror on an IfcDoor, where the solids were correct but the 2D swing lines were mirrored away from the solid has been fixed. Placing an IfcDoor on a mirrored Wall now correctly cuts the hole in the correct place. Deleting a wall and 2 doors no longer gives the message "Record is deleted". A crash with cross layer links which was caused by the entry in the unresolved links list not being removed when the attribute corresponding to it is deleted (when the layer is unloaded because the window is closed) has been fixed. Several problems caused by object association not being correctly tidied when BIM objects were deleted have been fixed. API --- CadInsertMenuCommand no longer puts commands at the wrong level in the menu. MicroGDS 2010 was updated to allow view perspective angles between 0.1 and 179.9 degrees. However, the ADK wasn't updated and it retained the previous values of 10 to 179. The ADK has now been updated. CadFiler now works on 64-bit operating systems. Also, missing functions in the 32-bit version have been reinstated. MicroGDS is a registered trademark of Informatix Inc. Teigha is a trademark of the Open Design Alliance.
