This error was fixed. + Wall - Using blocks inside wall definition could lead to wrong profile length, if the block has set a rotation angle arround the Z axis and the profile was connected to the block. This error shoud be fixed now. - Now you can define, how to insert the legend text symbol. Up to now, the text symbol was always rotated in automatic mode. This means, the text block was rotated so you can read it best from all sides. If you don't want it to insert this way, you can rename the file "Copmpany.ini.org" inside the subdirectoty "CAD" of your OCTAcad installation to "Company.ini".

Database ======== + Projects - Since the new Relaese 17 of OCTAcad it exists the new feature, that you can sort your project drawings to subfolders of the project. Unfortunately if you use this feature, some functions of OCTAcad did noct find these drawings anymore. This should be fixed now. CAD === + Fascia - Now you can make fascia processing without insertion of any text labels. Therefor an new checkbox was added. - Fascia panels were not shown at the correct position while using the fascia processing command, if the panels lower border was changed. This error was fixed. - The numbers from the fascia numbering tool were always assigned to the wrong side, if the fascia panels was edited by AutoCAd commands thuch as boolean operations. This error was fixed. - The insertion of additional points to a fascia did only work in the expected way, if no editing command (f.e. Door Insertion) was made to any of the fascias panels. This is fixed now. + Inlay -The selection function "Show all areas, that are surrounded by profiles" was improved, so that direct parallel profiles are also used for boundary search. If no areas are found it is helpful, if you preselect all boundary profiles before you start the command. + Wall - From now on "empty" extrusions don't get symbols anymore. - From now on you can also change "empty" extrusions. - From now on you can connect to "empty" extrusions. The parametric will be evaluated and the correct extrusion will be placed. - Some errors fixed while updating existing panels after collision with an extrusion. ================================================================================================== New version: 17.0.1.8 Database version: 17.0.1.0 Date: 10-25-2016 16:00 Operating system: Windows 7 (32 and 64 Bit), Windows 8/8.1 (32 and 64 Bit) Windows 10 (32 and 64 Bit) AutoCAD AutoCAD Architecture 2017 SQL Sever: Microsoft SQL Sever 2000, 2005, 2008, 2008 R2, 2012 and 2014 (Automatic installation only on x64 systems) Errors send to: entwicklung@stoehr-sauer.de ================================================================================================== Common ====== - If you send an OCTAcad error message per email, the error text is not cutted anymore. - Serveral lists didn't show their data at the top of the window.

CAD === + Panels - Up to now creating or editing of panels with the creation mode set to "Rectangular panel by selecting 3 points", only positive groove depth were respected to enlarge the panel. From now on also negative values are accepted to shrink the panel. + Profiles by color - Sometimes profiles were not shown in the corret color, also the correct length was shown in the legend table. This was because of a rounding problem while reading the length fromn the AutoCAD objects. In this case you should delete those length entries from the legend and select the relevant profiles new from the drawing. + Wall - If you used walls with profiles, which have checked the "Miter profiles" property, the wall collision sometimes does unexpected things. This should be fixed. - For object type "Fixed library block" not the defined layer of the selected layer scheme was assigned, but the layer "0" was assigned. This error si fixed now. - From now on OCTAcad sets the color scheme and the layer scheme always to a valid entry.
