Hotfix ALLPLAN 2023-1-3

Release notes (12/07/2023)

General

Thanks to several edits and corrected messages in the Quality Reporter, ALLPLAN now is even more stable.

MSI Setup

The automatic update feature was improved.

Plugins

Road

Several improvements have been implemented for the 'Road' plugin.

  • Longitudinal profile plan: Station and height labels on vertical geometric points; extension of labeling with tangential point IDs and grouping option.
  • Reports: Improved output format of profile stations.

Teamwork

AutoCAD interface

It is now possible to import 3D objects with the correct offset on a DWG import.

The DWG export of associative dimension lines was improved.

Export

In certain cases, exporting to Cinema 4D caused the program to stop; this has now been fixed.

IFC Interface

It is now possible to carry out an IFC export of stacked precast elements.

Attributes

The "Floor_area_according_to_DIN277" attribute is now correctly determined for plumbing components and vertical surfaces that are not the height of the room.

When importing attributes that cannot be assigned to an available group, the "Unknown Group" group is generated, in which these attributes can be placed.

Libraries

PythonParts

Creation of subfolders in the PythonParts standard directory has been improved.

User interface

When you select the "Copy, Move Elements between Documents" function, the object palette remains filled.

Basics

Layout Editor

Issuance of output areas in the "Print Layouts" function is possible once more.

User-Defined Objects

SmartParts

An icon was corrected in terms of position in SmartPart-Editor.

Visualization

When using "Redshift" as the "Renderer" then some parameters are set as defaults and can therefore no longer be adjusted.

When rendering with "Redshift", the unevenness value is adjusted so that the effect is similar to Cineware.

Shadow effects have been improved when rendering with "Redshift".

Progress is now shown correctly when rendering with "Redshift".

A message is issued if synchronization is started by Twinmotion but without actually starting Twinmotion.

PythonParts

We have made several improvements to the PythonParts for "Construction".

Views and Sections

After rotation of the screen content and subsequent resetting of the rotated plan view, views and sections are correctly shown when changing the drawing file.

Architecture

Unfinished structure

The height of plumbing components is now calculated in the report for the finished floor instead of the unfinished floor.

Modification of walls that are active in the background and also window openings with facings or rebates has been improved.

Roof

Both "width" and "length" have been conflated on specific modifications of a "General steel, timber element"; we have solved this problem.

Determining further attributes in "Steel, Timber Element" within a dialog field has been improved.

Thermal insulation

The transfer of data to Dämmwerk software is working smoothly once again.

Manufacturer

The data is updated for the BIM plug-in "Leviat".

Engineering

The quality of ALLPLAN has further been improved by resolving received crash reports and traceable messages from the ALLPLAN Quality Manager.

Bar reinforcement

In certain cases, the bending shape was not displayed to scale in schema tables; this has now been fixed.

After running the "Copy and Paste, Rotate" function, there are imprecise placing lines that lead to problems with other modifications in certain cases; we have solved this problem.

Precast Elements

Wall

List generation for "Structural Starter Bars" is possible once more.

Element Plan

The snapping of points in general 3D solids points in fixtures within the element plan has been improved.

Exchanging of group fixtures within the element plan has been improved.

If instances are generated with "Extrude Bars Along Path" or "Sweep Bars Along Path" then copying of these instances may lead to incorrect quantities; we have solved this problem.

ALLPLAN Bridge

We have updated the "ALLPLAN Bridge" plug-in. Details

Visual Scripting

We have enhanced the user interface and program in various places.
