Now you have to execute the file "OCTAcad16_ClientSetup.exe" from the main directory of your OCTAcad installation. Database ======== + Choicelists - There is an new choicelist "Edit modes borders". This edit modes will be used by the new fascia functionality. + Fairs - There is a new database field "Search" for your free use. + Printing - In the modules "Project Planer" and "Availability Manager" you can now print in mode "Standard" while row count and/or column count increases the width and height of your display. - There is a new Report "10. Cutting list panels". This report is for the new partslist generation function "Cutting list panels". It shows the border material and handling options for each side. + Projects - There is a new field "Date" on the project drawings tab page. The user can set this field and use it for the drawing head. + System settings - There is a new option "Drawing number system". With this option you can devide your drawing number into seperate parts, which will be filled from different input fields. Each field can be a fix string, a free edit input, a value from an other database field or a selection from a list. On the tab page "Nr.Sys" you can define your needed systems. On the tab page "Common" you can select the one, you will want to use. In the user management you can overwrite this setting. If you create a new project, the selected setting will be stored in the project record and than used during creation of a new paroject drawing record. If you do not want to use a drawing number system, leave the entry for the field "Drawing no. system" on entry "". + Wall - There is a new tabpage "Preview" on the construction tab of the wall. There you can select an image for the wall from a jpg or png file. This image can be shown on the wall contruction tab in CAD as well. The image will be saved in the sql server and the wall ex- and import will include the assigned images. - There is a new switch "Insert always without collision detection" in the wall definition. If this switch is set for a wall definition all insertions of this wall definition will not check for collisions with other wall elements. CAD === + Common - There is an new "Fastmenu" on OCTAcad objects.This menu is shown, if you place your mouse cursor over an OCTAcad object. If you click on the shown symbol a circular contect menu is shown with all commands you can use for the selected OCTAcad object. On some commands there is a dark border shown. If ou click on such a border the menu changes to a submenu. A click on the center symbol returns to the main menu. From the main menu a click on the center symbol closes the fast menu. The same is done if you press the ESC key. If tooltips in AutoCAD are deactivated (var = 0) the new fast menü is show directly. If tooltips are activated (var = 1) you must press and hold the Alt-key while turning the mouse to show the new fast menu. - In each construction function were you can select accessorry or work values, you can now copy one or more entries by pressing Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V from one article to any other. + Autom. Nummbers - Up to now the generated numbers were sorted by width, length, depth, etc.. Now you have to new options. "Continuously" and "Each panel with own number". In this new mmodes the numbering starts in the lower left of the selected fascia or wall. On fascias the numbers were generated by level in creation direction. In the mode "Continuously" equal panels will get the same number. + Browser export - Up to now, profiles were always shon in Standard view regardless of the selected complexity in AutoCAD. Now they are shown in high complexity, if selected in AutoCAD. - Now textures should look well. + Edit border - With this new command you can edit the border meaterial, border edit modes and the decor direction of fascia panels, inlays, doors and normal panels. - There is a new command, which copies the above settings from one panel to one or more other panels. + Fascia - There are 2 new corner types for acute angles. For this types only one panels gets mitered and the other one will be streched. - Now you can define color and material for edge bands vor all 4 sides of a fascia panel. Also you can define the border edit mode for grooves between two panels. + Library - Now you can select AutoCAD entities by pressing Ctrl-C and insert a block in the OCTAcad library by pressing Ctrl-V on the library block section. The block is named "Auto". You can also use the option "Copy with basepoint" from the context menu. - The same can be done with drag & drop from entities tho the library block page. - Partslist generation - There is a new creation option "Cutting list panels" in the dropdown list "Create as". If you select this option only panels, fascia panels, inlays, hinged doors and sliding doors are selected for the partslist. Border material and handling are only included, if you select this new option. + Progress Fascia - Now you can define the vertical offset between to fascia panels too. Also you can set the values for text height and text offset to outer border of a panel. - Now width (at top border) and height (at right border) of a panel are shown as text entities. - For each side you will see the border material and color, the short value of the assigned border handling and the groove distance as text entities. For left and right side the miter value is shown as well. Each element type has its own insertion layer. This layers can be predefined in the "Company.dwg". Horizontal and vertical decor is shown with the blocks ASSWPDecorHorz.dwg" and "ASSWPDecorVert.dwg". This blocks can be redefined by you for your needs. You can find this block in the subdirectory "CAD" of your OCTAcad installation. - There ist a new option "Convert to solid3d". If you check this option, all panels were converted from masselements to solid3d entities. Solid3d entities have some beneficts for command "hide". + Wall - The collision control was significant improved. Duplex extrusion insertions or duplex panels should not happen anymore. During copying, rotating or mirroring of wall elements the processed objects are inserted only, if no other objects are in place. If so, the existing elemnet will be connected to the new one and the new collision obeject will be erased. - Up to now profiles, that were not checked for a specific contruction mode (i.e. "Curved") in the parts master data, were not created during wall construction. Now all profiles are created and a information message is shown at the end of the insertion. If you ignore these message, the wall remains in the drawing, if you cancel the message, the wall will be erased.
