The preview images in the 'Element for Fit' function are now displayed correctly when using high-resolution monitors.
In the pull-down menu of the ALLPLAN symbol or in the 'File' menu, we have added the entry 'Utilities'. Here, you can analyze defective data and repair it automatically. Please make sure to back up the project before using this function. After running this function, it will show you how many issues have been fixed. All information is saved in a log file at \usr\local\DataHealing. We are planning to extend the features in the next major release.

Layout Editor
In certain cases, the program stopped when users opened planning; this has now been fixed.
In certain cases, switching from document editing to layout editor caused the program to crash when loading non-current drawing files with views and sections; this has now been fixed.

Label styles
When copying across documents, the label styles are assigned correctly again.
SmartParts
We have improved the recognition of identical SmartParts when modifying them.
Visualization
Macs with ARM processor on Parallels that do not support the Cineware/Redshift renderer will no longer have these renderers available for selection. Users will be notified accordingly when exporting and importing to Cinema 4D.
When rendering single images, you can now additionally select 'Redshift' as 'Renderer'. The info box displays the Cineware and Redshift versions.
The render window now shows the renderer used. The hyperlink at the bottom of the window provides relevant information about the renderer used.

In the Render tool, the correct settings are now entered when you select 'Restore basic settings'.
If AVX is not supported on a computer, Cineware can currently not be used there.
PythonParts
We have made several improvements to the PythonParts for 'Automatic Reinforcement' and 'Construction'.
Urban planning
Version 5.4 with various improvements and enhancements is now available for the 'Xplanning' function. You can no longer select the function in an empty project.

When the basic reinforcement for precast elements is switched to passive, the label is now deleted as well.
The status of precast layers for reinforcement defined in the 'Layer filter' is now correctly taken into account when displaying elements.
For views and sections with associative dimensioning, you can now use the function 'Show Clipping Path'.
In views and sections in x and y direction, rotated fixtures were not selected via the selection rectangle; this has now been fixed.
Structural framing
We have also improved the use of profiles from the Nemetschek profile catalog for the cross-section of structural objects.
Architecture
Unfinished structure
