Design
- New functionality allowing you to rotate PDF plans as part of the Scan & Trace import process. You can easily rotate by 90° if the PDF has been generated sideways or you can specify an exact angle, useful if the plans have been scanned and are not quite straight.
- New drawing repair tool to check for anomalies in your drawing:
- Check for zero length walls with option to delete
- Check for items in the estimate but not in the drawing with option to delete
- Check for zero area levels with option to delete
- Check if walls/roof lines are at the edge of a level or intersect the levels outline
- Check if walls with foundations/footings are on a level with a base height greater than zero
This can be found on the Architectural ribbon tab:
- Fixed an issue when trying to select multiple items on a drawing when there was rotated text or vertical dimensions present on the drawing
Estimate
- Fixed an issue where user added sundry items were not being assigned to build phases correctly
