Cad Changes
Cad Changes
Design Line
Fixed an issue with 4 way reducers in design line getting the reducer on the wrong output.
Flange Graphics
Improved the display of flange graphics is ISO views by making all edges visible.
Spooling
Creating spools to a layout or drawing was crashing if the reports used the fields Item Connector Location Z Top or Bottom print objects. Issue fixed with spooling out to DWG files in AutoCAD 2011 causing the graphics screen to become unstable, (i.e. cursor not present inside the drawing area).
Sub Assemblies
Fixed sub assembly editor prompting the user two times for Cancel. Now allow dimensions not covered by product data to be assigned by a dynamic sub assembly.

Data Links
Add "Data Links" menu to right click context menu for items selected that have links added
Renumber Command
Allow Renumber command to be called as a Lisp function so it pauses lisp routine until command has finished, allowing user to run additional lisp functions after renumber, function name is MAPRenumber
Design Line
Fixed an issue with 4 way reducers in getting the reducer on the wrong output. Fixed supports not filling in correctly when bounded by offset nodes.
Item Folders
Fixed create sub folder off 'item folders' actaully adding the new folder as a root element, not a child of item folders.
Lisp
Fixed "unhandled exception" error using (settext) lisp command and only passing in 3 values. i.e. (settext (ssget) 1 "off")
Profiles
Prevention of having the wrong database loaded when opening multiple drawings drawn in different Profiles.
Straight (Cut)
Fixed pattern 1 Option #1 Straight Type, 4 parts was naming the last part development incorrectly.
Units
Fixed the entering of dimensions using feet, changed so no inch value required. Page 2 of 52
Page
3 of 52
Cost Breakdown
Changed Cost Breakdown dialogue so uses fixed spacing and also changed the font to Lucida Console.
Create2D
Create2D (or explodetext) on Text aligned to Length at 330 degrees was exploding to a rotated angle.
Design Line
Implemented a workaround for AutoCAD 2011; when drawing design lines and changing constraints would lose focus when moving over the drawing area. Fixed Source fittings failing to Fill in 3D (failed matching sizes).
Dialogs
Fixed pressing Escape on dialogs that have 3D Viewers, stopped them closing when the user just presses Esc. to cancel selection.
Fixer
Fixer dialog on drainage bends being taken off uphill, would apply the settings selected but the wrong end would adjust. Page 4 of 52
Insulation Specs
Fixed insulation specifications applying the wrong library of connectors to transitional items.
Invalid connectors
Fixed takeoff using invalid data for unused connectors.
Item Reports
Fixed the "Available" filter.
Materials
Fixed insulation material links so that when selecting insulation in a drop down, the link to the insulation database appears as it should. Fixed a crash if current material deleted from the material link. Made changes to fix the way new or deleted material acts, for example; when prompting to copy/remove entries relating to all materials.
Price\Times Editors
Fixed potential crash in product listed price/times table editors if prodinfo columns are shown that have blank data.
Print Objects
Fixed Object Connector Location Z Top\Bottom crashing reports.
Profiles
Fixed Insulation and Hanger specifications to convert when creating extra profiles. Also introduced fix for Fabrication, Installation and Price Lists tables so they too are not deleted.
Setup Services
Fixed editing a new button in the Service template editor reloading & losing the button just added.
Specifications
Fixed dialogue that prompted to delete entries in the specification. Was deleting the entries for that material regardless of selecting No.
Spooling
When plotting objects with a colour overide, (e.g. spool colour), the objects were being plotted in the parent layer colour, unless the "Use Objects Colour for Hidden Detail" was set to Yes, now corrected to only obey the switch when plotting with hidden detail.
Sub Assemblies
Assemblies containing different sized ends were not carrying over the correct size to the Out end, it was carrying over the In end size resulting in the wrong sized part being auto attached as the next item. Additionally, when taking off a sub assembly with different sized ends, it was being "flipped" when auto attached and connecting by the wrong end.
Takeoff
Fixed missing connector/seam numbers in Takeoff views. This now dsiplays with the number for example "C1=DM25 500x400" previously displayed without the number "C=DM25 500x400".

Added new fill two ends command, available as FILL2ENDS2 or F2E; includes totals for Weight, Area and Cost for each solution.
HASP Notice
IMPORTANT: Changes to MAP licensing now only allows HL type keys to be used when running this version and future releases of the software. We have now dropped support for HASP4 and Parallel keys and users are reminded that for information on Swapping out their keys, they should be contacting their local distributer/dealer. Please be aware that this update will install the SRM Drivers associated with these HL keys in order for you to obtain access to the latest version of the software.

OpenGL
Removed depreciated nonOpenGL drawing code OpenGL is now a minimum requirement.
Print Objects
Additional print objects for tie rod/bolt/material/corners (per stiffening position).
Product Lists
Revamped product lists so that dim/option columns dont use visible indexes this means unlocked dims can be skipped and fixes issues with new dims added on patterns with holes. We now no longer reload catalogue lists all the time (use console command 'reloadprods' to force reload on old jobs). We cache similar lists instead of discarding them. IMPORTANT NOTE: This change breaks all forwards compatability product definitions will be lost to old versions if items are seved in this version.
Reports
Each report now has the option to Override the default Printer assigned. Useful for creating a duplicate report and saving one as PDF. Available by Options interface of each report. Added "Item Insulation Nett Cost" and "Item Insulation Gross Cost" to Exporting Item Data.
Scripting
Added item.canrotary() and item.rotarynest = true/false to the scripting references

Connectors
User can now multiple select connectors by using isolated selection using the CTRL key and also for block selection using the SHIFT key. Now gives the user the ability to edit more than one connector at a time.
Create2D
"Step Down" and "Blank End" rectangular connectors were not creating lines for the "Create2D" command (and Hide).
Design Line
Terminal styles no flex option on a terminal style was sometimes adding random fittings. Flowsized terminals were not being reduced when needed. Fix implemented for when using offset lines that are not orientated perfectly. Positions were incorrect and could fill in 3D cutting out parts of the duct in certain situations (u type runs). a) Fixed hangers on "dropper lines" placing the hanger on the line rather than the expanded fittings (floating elevation). b) Shape changing in a round spigoted terminal on a Rectangular line was placing a RecttoOval rather than RecttoRound. a) Stopped hangers being filled where offset rules have been applied. b) Fixed the filling of offsets using two bends when using noncentreline fixbys. Design line straight filling was missing or using incorrect couplings where multiple straights are required. Design line hangers and offset rules filled with 2 elbows: hangers were getting placed on the line when the fittings don't follow the line. Combine command was leaving combined design lines behind, amended to erase them. Enhanced dynamic fill, was producing gaps and refilling when it wasnt necessary. Terminal styles: fixed some issues with flex not working between the min & max ranges correctly. Fixed Line Editor > Change Constraints dialog, was only listing a maximum of 20 constraints. Stopped a crash when no service active in design line mode. Fixed an issue with 'redbend' expansions where the bend required a shape change and is a riser. The shape change e.g. a squaretoround onto a rectangular riser would go in with the width/depth misaligned to the riser line. Fixed an issue with hangers not getting sized correctly on design line, when using specs that have different OD sizes to nominal sizes. Line elevation tool snap points defaulted to midpoint, has been amended to use near, end and midpoints.
Explode connectors
Added support for rectangular and round connectors, now explode down to faces.
IFC
Page 11 of 52
Report filters
Fixed report filter 'not' duplication bug, optimised job contents for large jobs; fixed job contents section filter 'none' not working.
Ribbon
Lock Document when using IMPORTSYS so the Ribbon Bar activates after the command.
Save As Icon
Stopped the user from being prompted where to save the icon file to when using Save As Icon (defaults to the same location as the ITM file).

Database ID
Now allow Database ID to be displayed in Folders view, will not display for Product Lists which have multiple entries.
Design Line
Improvements made to "Custom Resistance Configuration", so that rules can be enabled or disabled without having to delete and recreate. New feature which displays a warning message if Terminals have no flow rates applied, the warning gives the user the option to set the flow. CID 1122 (Drop Cheek Bend) is now supported. Pressure Drop Rules: during 3D Fill of design line, if a node has a single item, and that item has a non auto rule, apply the rule to the item. Allows several items using same pattern to use different rules to look up resistance tables.
Dialog
Now allow messages dialogs with expandable details to resize.
IFC Export
Added colours to the IFC (step) export.
Item Folders/Attacher
Store the Item Path when using Attacher so when "Folders" command is entered, it opens at the location of item.

Add Rise Fall drawing support to CID 12, 802 Cap Ends when in Rises negating the need for Elbows top/bottom. 2. Option added to the Cap Ends to supress "cross" drawing, else it interferes with Rise/Fall symbols. 1. New Styles added to Rise/Fall Symbols, None, Supply, Extract and Exhaust 2. Control over which Rise Fall styles to use have been added to service database, last Tab.
Services
Change applied to allow renamed IEZ's to import without prompting any error.

CID 8 & 29, 382, 893 (Square to Round, Rectangular Grille Box, Angled Grille Box)) Now support "Add Hole". CID 501, 502, 509, 533 & 914 (Damper Patterns) New control type added: Option #2 "Knob". CID 1102 (Toilet) New options added "Square" or "No Box" for cistern and options to set downward output pipe. CID 1115 & 1116 (Oval Tap(s) on Straight) Added Connector #5 where the body meets the reducer. Added the ability to change to Round branches which also triggers the connector type; Branch Depth field is required to be set to Round or else the pattern keeps the Oval connector types. CID 1115 (Oval Conical Tee Cross with Reducer) Skin Calculations were adjusting the right extension dimension when "Auto", resulting in a very long reducer skin extension; fixed. CID 1133 (Damper Box) Added dimension field for Damper Inset: Central or a value available. CID 149, 1049 (Wall Sleeve) Now enabled for use if the dongled option Standard Parts is enabled. CID 166 (Rectangular Canvas Connection) New options to define the 2D line detail spacing, enables input of either quantity or spacing.

Colours
Fixed issue with material colour defaulting to colour of insulation if insulation removed from the item at a later stage. Occured when previewing or printing Worksheets and Labels. Page 19 of 52
Convert3DModel
When using Convert3DModel, a colour override was being assigned to the converted object based on the colour of the original model, causing it to be displayed in this colour rather than the Service colour in Orbitor viewer.
Coupler logic
Changed coupler logic to load Rectangular/Oval couplers when the width and depth are equal, was only loading round.
DBX/ARX loading
If the DBX is loaded, the ARX is now prevented from loading on 2010 64bit system.
Design Line
Fixed an issue with Service Terminal Styles not appearing in the Terminal Styles drop down (when button type is set to Terminal). Issue occurs when accessing button properties through Edit Service Template dialog. Pressure Drop Configuration Tables 1. Ensure dimensions names are not repeated if the configuration contains a CID value more than once. 2. Ensure all dimension names are unique. When services required couplings between pipes and bends; if a line only just fitted two bends and any required couplings, a slight gap could cause an odd pipe length to be inserted that overlapped one of the bends, now fixed. Fixed an issue with the bridging pattern (CID 1101) as used in design line ( 'Exception Fitting' ) reporting negative areas. Changes made to complex node filling. Now resolved issue with straights no longer overlapping complex fittings. Added logic to allow unfilled complex nodes to be filled by a bridging pattern if there is on available. Other fixes introduced for how complex nodes behave between sessons. Bridge Pattern change which now has the option to draw bounding box face around area of fitting in place of line detail alone.
Dropper Lines
Fixed an issue with filling dropper lines which occurs when multiple mappings are attempted for the expansion. The various mappings having different effective offsets.
EDITMAP
Fixed absolute paths being converted to relative paths on Save.
IFC
Changed MAP's IFC property set name to MAP_General (not pset_map_general the pset prefix is reserved), added PresentationMode to the header.
Import Services
Selecting the "Browse" button was not updating the list of services to show the ones read from the newly selected file.
Insulation Specification
Resolved inconsistencies when changing insulation specs.
Item Reports
Fixed colours of the header sections also affecting body of the report. Page 20 of 52
Services
Fixed the dialogue that appears when adding a new item to a service button. Dialogue now provides an even 50/50 split by default for the folder structure and item files.
Stretch
If "Restrict to use Items from Same Tab" was enabled, and the item being stretched did not exist in ANY tab, i.e. a 3rd party drawing, Stretch and stretch type actions (CHSPEC command) would not break down into standard straight lengths.
Sub Assembly
Fixed sub assembly form not closing properly if in orbit command. Product listed sub assemblies now uses takeoff to allow user to configure product definitions of the assembly. Fixed potential OpenGL leaks closing down the sub assembly editor.
Terminal Styles
Fixed an issue with Service Terminal Styles not appearing in the drop down box when the Button Fitting Type is of type Terminal. Issue occured when accessing Button Properties from the Edit Services Template dialogue.
V Notch Marking
Reinstated the option to use a cutting tool to mark the position of fold line ends on ductboard patterns with a V notch, reverted this change as it was stopping V Notches appearing in metal part developments.

Spooling
When Spooling to Layout Tabs and selecting "Tags" they were only being displayed if either execute script, reports or export item data was also turned on.
Page
22 of 52
Design Line
Sized Nodes when placed in the model were losing there size. Fixed so that sizes are filled correctly when generating the 3D. Fixed Access panels reverting to the last size entered. Product listed Access Panels when entered, if the size exists in the product list, will be drawn at the correct size.
Regen (Xrefs)
Fixed an issue resulting in excessive regen times, was caused by functionality added to support xref drawings with invalid symbols in the names, now optimised.
Scripting
Fixed item.qty scripting variable which was being treated as a string, not a value (calculations when using this had been failing).
Specifications
Fixed editing an item file applying carry over specificationss to the item being edited.
Sub Assembly
Items within Sub Assemblies were having their Qty incremented when collecting identical items for Job Contents/Reporting/Cam.
Takeoff Views
Page 23 of 52
Takeoff views now represent whether Airturns, Splitters etc are displayed or not. Previously the view was not updated if disabling these options.
Template Items
Introduced service button conditions for template items (nonproduct listed) and also the ability to swap out items based on the initial carry over value.
Page
24 of 52
Item Folders
Fixed corrupt patterns causing the crash of item folders during fill. Will now report nonfatal errors on selection.
Services Database
Fixed being able to sort by columns within the Sections dialogue of the Services database.
Insulation
Fixed locked insulation and double wall settings being overridden by insulation carry over if enabled.
Scripting
Fixed IF and ELSEIF statements reporting errors. Out of Memory error fixed when processing some scripts.
Swap In
Improvements made to "Swap In" command to resolve issues with item positioning when option is selected to "Swap all Instances". Item Number, Notes and Custom Test values and positions are maintained when item is swapped (positions relative to original item).
Page

Renumber
Reverted Renumber to ommit leading 0's
Spooling
1. When inserting spool reports using tables and Report_Position/Report_Width blocks, the tables is no longer SCALED between the 2 points, its width is set so the text heights are as per the table settings 2. USR command to update a report now uses the original table width rather than scaling between block points.
Straights (Auto)
Reverted this change, was causing issues: Fix straights when placed in drawing with the length set to a value instead of "Auto" and subsequently stretching/filling the straight, if stretched passed "auto" length, it was not setting the value to auto.
Page
27 of 52
Services
Fixed service combo not being inialised to carry over service when opening drawings (affected drawings opened 2.38.174, would always initialise the Structural or Pipework service).
Sub Assemblies
Fixed the carry over of dimensions for product listed sub assemblies not working. Fixed sub assemblies not being handled correctly with pattern cacheing enabled.
Page
28 of 52
CONVERT3DMODEL
Convert3DModel automatically uses Block name for objects instead of "Structure", when converted, so the objects can be reported on with meaningful names.
CTEXT
New options added to control the colour of Text, Blocks & Leader Lines on CTEXT. Options are located in the ADDREPORT dialog.
Dampers
New Draw Type added "Simple", which just draws the the shaft, could be used to show electrodes on fused welded pipework. Fixed problem creating a "new" damper that was setting the Shaft Length to 1001. Added option to specify the damper shaft thickness.
Design Line
Added support for CID 2881 (Swept Branch) to be added as a Centre Line Branch Constraints now have the option to sort in a user defined order, new buttons have been added to the Service Database interface to move individual entries up or down in the list. The "Design Line Editor" will display the constraints in the user defined order. Introduced the ability to display the units of the entries when adding fields for Design Line Restrictions in Constraints to distinguish between Total Pressure Drop and Pressure Drop per length Added the ability to edit prompted lengths in the line editor dialog. The following patterns now support the filling of Complex nodes, CID 10 (2 Way Tee), 18 (Side Branch), 30 (Mitred Offset), 31 (Grille Box Cross),1120 (Ductboard Multi Way), 1121 (Drop Cheek Breeches).
IFC Support
New command added, IFCATTR allows users to configure which attributes are saved in IFC export files. Page 29 of 52
Aligned the CADmep+ IFC Export Commands with Constructicad, that is renamed EXPORTIFCS to IFCEXPORT (or IFCE). Implemented read/write of IfcElementQuantity types {similar to IfcPropertySets}.
IFCEXPORT
IFCEXPORT command added to the CADmep+ Right Click menu (CADmep+ > Utilities > Export as IFC)
IMPORTRUN Command
"IMPORTABS" command renamed to "IMPORTRUN" and made available in the Viewer's Command list. Allow ImportRun command to ignore SubType from file, if blank.
Item Reports
Added the ability to access Job Custom Data inside of Item Reports
Item Scripting
Added access to Item Centre Line Length via item.length and connector size through item.connector[].width/depth
JOBCOLLISIONS
New JOBCOLLISIONS command and Dialogue for loading, isolating and marking collision sets from CAJ files after being processed in uCADMAP.exe (ConstructiCAD). The Block Names used for marking the problem areas are MAP_Collision, MAP_OpenEnd, MAP_FDuplicate, MAP_PDuplicate, MAP_ConnMisMatch and MAP_SizeMisMatch and should be present in the current drawing.
Object Text
New option to control the graphics of the "set" arrow by using the leader arrow setup in a named dimension style. New options added to allow Alias and Sets text to be rotated immediately after positioning. Switches added to individually control the rotation of Sizes and Elevation.
Output to Viewer
When using the CAJOUT or CAJUPDATE commands, ("Output to Viewer" and "Update Viewer Output"), if the SHIFT is pressed when the command is executed the user is prompted to "select objects", this allows a sub set of the model to be extracted for viewing.
Print Objects
Added new Print Objects, "Duct End Size 4" & "Item Connector 4" to report out on the Item's end 4 size and connector name respectively Print Object "Flow Type" added to CTEXT & ADDREPORT.
Profiles
Import & Export Profile commands added to the CADmep+ Right Click menu (CADmep+ > Profiles > Import, CADmep+ > Profiles > Export)
Size Text
New feature to enable custom blocks to be added to "Size Text", a block with 1 attribute for Round and 2 attributes for Rectangular labels must be created and then referenced in the Service Database
Spooling
When using "Takeoff as Cut In" into Items that are Spooled, the item being cut in, the cloned pipe and any couplings now adopt the existing items SpoolName and colour. 2 new commands added for updating reports in tables for spooled items: UPDATESPOOLREPORT (USR) UPDATEALLSPOOLREPORTS (UASR) The USR command will update all reports within the active layout with items whose spool name matches the layout name. The UASR command will iterate over all layouts and update all tables with items that match the layouts name. When "Cutting In" to Spooled runs, the visibility flags of viewports are now inherited from the parent item so it is not necessary to re create the layout spools. Page 30 of 52
SysScrReport
SYSSCRREPORT command will now default to creating a CSV file instead of an MDB as Microsoft Access JET support is not available in 64 bit windows. The user can still choose MDB if desired, it's an option in the file types.
Title Powered By
Display the "Powered By CADMech" if the dongle is only enabled for Electrical Library (CADElec).
Translation
Changes for dictionary: CADDuct to CADmep+
Trimble
1. Output single entries to Trimble files for one sided "Z" Wrapper. 2. Output 2 points for "double profile bearer" Support for TrimbleExport on 64 bit build added with the addition of the new TrimbleLayoutAPIx64.dll from Trimble.
CID 3071, 3386 (electrical versions of CID 71 Reducer & CID 2386 Offset Reducer)
Electrical conduit: reducer and offset reducer patterns.
CID 311, 379, 886 (Saddle Tee T2, Combineed Saddle Cross, Saddle no Pipe)
Now support double wall.
CID 57 (A P Saddle)
Added branch collar length dimension and collar development option.

ADDREPORT
Resolved issue with "Total Row" not displaying when "Calculate Total" selected for report fields.
Ancillary Reports
Resolved issue to enable Ancillary Reports (File Extension .ARP) to be viewed in CADmep+
Connector Blocks
Connector blocks in product lists. Now allows support for sizes up to 2 decimal places matches block by size up to a maximum of 2 decimal places. Previously wasn't allowing for any decimal places so size 1.5 would use the same connector block as 1.0.
Custom Text
Resolved issue with leader line end point moving location when HIDE or PLOT with hide are used.
Database permissions
CadDuct Setting page of the Database was always being saved when the user selected OK even when they had restricted access, i.e. no permissions set with mapuser. This was only an issue if using the TOGGLEPOSITION command to modify the position for text, it would get saved if the database was edited.
Design Line
Fixed program error when using the command PRDROPS. Fixed issues with offset rules and electrical offsets where they had been filled the wrong way round Fixed issue with not being able to select access panels or hanger type nodes. Improvements to the use of the "Flex Filled" line mode in "Design Line" when combining with lines drawn using "Normal Line" mode. Improvements made to "Terminal Style" filling. Resolved issue with placement of Oval "Cap Ends" on Rectangular runs. Fixed an issue with eol tee's that use straight, shoe, cap end type combination. Was failing to place product listed cap ends was still doing straight & shoes though. Resistance Configuration Link Tables fixed the link tables dialog not updating after deleting a link, it now displays the next valid link in the list. Pressure Drop Calculations ensure that if a node matches a pressure rule that contains the same pattern number more than once, use the correct item for the dimensions passed to the look up tables. CID 1108, 2108, 3108 (Hosepipe) fixed this pattern causing the software to lock up only experienced the issue with design line filling. Fixed crash in design line if item flex adjoined to is invalid. Offset rules: was incorrectly placing backtoback rectangular elbows on oval lines. Page 34 of 52
Pressure Drop Calculations fixed resistance rules not mapping to items at node. If the node had more items than the rule, the rule was mapping to each items single rule. Fix for dummy terminal logic, should now be able to add a riser starting at an existing cad node. Add riser logic amended so that lines are added correctly. Fixed placement of hangers on "dropper lines". Added support for CID 2881 (Swept Branch no Pipe) as a centre line shoe type fitting. Applied fixes for how complex nodes behave particularly between sessions. Added logic to allow unfilled complex nodes to be filled by a bridging pattern if there is one available. Fixed issue with complex nodes not filling in correctly. Fix introduced to stop the straights overlapping the complex fittings. Fixed bug causing the program to hang when working on offset rules. Terminal styles: fixed an issue that was producing long lengths of flex when a terminal is added to a run using the ceiling height. Hangers and cap end placement on "dropper lines" wasn't working correctly, ie where the line's fittings have been allowed to be displaced by e.g. an offsetting tee. Amended multiple reducer logic to avoid reversing fittings. Was resulting in an overreduction in size such that a reversed reducer would be needed to increase the size up again. The limit for multiple reducers has also been increased from 6 to 10. Fixed RedInLine not placing Tapers correctly when dimensions set to values, rather than "Central".
IFC Support
Make standard IFC Export use less memory by writing directly to a file rather than Memory. Additionall fix issue of crashing when more that 1000 objects selected.
Insulation Specification
Fixed inconsistencies in changing insulation specs. Implement change specs in 3d viewer. Fixed inconsistencies in changing insulation specifications and the redevelopment failing. Fixed Insulation Specifications being carried over from catalogue items with Insulation Specifications locked against them. Fixed insulation specs carrying over locked values from catalogue items.
Item Reports
Rectified issue with Item Sealant print object properties showing multiple indexes, this now only has the 1 sealant per item as it should.
Item Scripting
Resolved issue when developing Rectangular Taper patterns usig the item.update()
JobContents
Allow JobContents command to display items that have previously been output to Cam when prompring for a selection.
OPENJOB
Resolved Issue with OPENJOB Command not displaying MAJ files for selection.
Output to Viewer
Improvements made to performance when outputting large complex models to viewer (UCADVIEW), that contain objects that have been created using CONVERT3DMODEL command.
Pattern Icons
Fixed potential issue where icons didn't get refreshed properly in job contents / job browser / item folders when combinations open at the same time.
Pattern Takeoff
Page 35 of 52
Print Preview
Fixed program crash when doing a Print Preview; if closing preview dialog, then closing drawing.
Profiles
Ensure the correct Profile is active and saved when creating Spool Drawings. When forced to switch Profiles by opening a DWG by double clicking to load AutoCAD or opening without first loading the application, the wrong SYSSCR.MAP could be loaded, this caused the incorrect service templates to be associated with the service, and caused LOK errors when trying to edit the service template, additionally the Folders Directory listing would be incorrect.
Report printing
Fixed memory leak in report printouts that are grouped into tables.
Scripting
Scripting enhancment to stop erroring out when using "EndLocation" method and requesting an invalid connector number. (i.e. CID 891 Connector 5) Fixed potential crash in scripting where expression (xx+yy+) did not report an error.
Size text
Size text was displaying the Plan text (200x100) on objects when the connector was parallel to the view direction, it now displays the front text (100x200)
Stretch / Fill
Fixed an issue with stretch/fill on hubspigot type straights. Was leaving a gap where more than one straight fitting was needed.
Sub Assemblies
Fixed product listed sub assemblies not drawing correctly for subitems that use Pipe OD's (spec not being applied to sub items) Fixed sub assemblies including wrapped items not displaying in the takeoff dialog (and possibly in AutoCAD). Resolved issue with sub assemblies with holes when a new dimension added. Now changed the dimension reference to work from the UID rather than indexes.
Swap In
Fixed only checking the model geometry and not the name or description, so a H42 would be swapped for H47 in error.
Text Alignment
When using Blocks with Levels, Item Numbers or Custom Text, if aligned to Length or Connector and the UCS was rotated, then the view aligned to the UCS, the text block would display out of alignment, it was not taking into account the Viewport Twist Angle.
Trimble
TrimbleExport was missing points if the objects layer name was empty when exporting to a CNX file.
View Menu
Fixed View menu being disabled in takeoff, not just for standard parts.
Viewer Output
Stopped the viewer output trying to convert non MAP objects when their visibility is off, i.e. have been hidden. Page 36 of 52

Pattern Developments with Angled Seams. Added an optional validity check, used when pattern developments set angled seam start/ends, to prevent possibilty of seam angles being wrongly applied to a previous section. In "Edit Developments" the extents area was over 20000000000; fixed by ensuring the developments contain no empty sections; is only fixed after an edit pattern and redevelopment.
Pattern developments
Oval branches on oval: fixed the development of branch parts/seam positions to account for oval branch`s flats having had extra points inserted; used by CID's 1104, 1115, 1116, 1117, 1118.
Stretch
Resolved issue with straight not applying "Auto" length on stretch. Issue occurred when non standard length straight stretched past "Auto" length, value was not being set to "Auto".

Scripting
Support for a delay to pass to (executescript) function to supress the progress bar. The format is (executescript "script" selectionset delay) or (executescript "script" delay). The delay is in milliseconds.
ADDREPORT
Only Add Tables to the drawing if it's not empty (addreport), was previously adding tables with just title and heading rows.
Connectors
Swage Set Back adjust on round connectors was not working with REAL numbers (numbers with decimal points), the number was being rounded to a whole number, i.e. 0 1 or 2, was noticable in Imperial database when the setback would either be 0" or 1". Fix very old problem of Rectangular Connector hidden detail being displayed in the colour of the "Hidden" Layer when set to 256 in the Main Database.
CREATE2D (Hangers)
Stopped "Area of Influence" circles on the top of hangers creating 2 semi circles when CREATE2D was run.
CTEXT
Custom Text would realign itself to the Alignment specified in the actual report rather than obey the override applied to the text on the item set by "AlignTextL" "AlignTextC" commands, after a drawing was reopened.
IFC Import/Export
Fixed all imperial IFC import/export files to scale the contents of the file so they are always metric (mm).
Input Units
Page 40 of 52
Fixed toggling the units in pattern takeoff not converting the dimensions.
JOBCONTENTS
Jobcontents command was not displaying the data columns correctly; their widths were being set to 0.
Object Text
If configured to align to Length or Connector and using blocks with attributes, fixed not aligning correctly in ISO views, there was a slight rotation.
Offset label
Relaxed the check when comparing ends to ascertain if a set is equal or setting up/down, the original check was causing patterns that differed by only 0.0001 to stop displaying the text when in multiple viewports.
Scripting
Elevation Scripting objects that reported Top and Bottom were not taking into account Pipe OD's.
Spooling
Issues resolved when Spooling to DWG files, was leaving the new drawings locked, causing a "Command in Progess" message when trying to plot.
Stiffeners
Stiffener drawing on Rectangular duct was not obeying the Linetype set up in the Stiffener database, it would sometimes display one of the lines in the linetype of the "Hidden" layer when Hiding.
Sub Assembly
Fixed sub assembly editor not allowing user to change item properties in item folders, fixed crashes in item folders when they are edited (especially from outside the program), fixed drag/drop item folders.
SysScrReport
SysScrReport command does not work on 64 bit machines (Microsoft JET 4.0 is not supported), now exits gracefully when cannot create the file.
Takeoff
Fixed toggling units in takeoff resetting altered dimensions to the previous values, unless the redraw command was used.
Area calculation was being doubled up due to error in a general routine used to convert metal cheek developments to ductboard. Also affects CID's 944, 946, 950, 951, 1121, 1131.
CID 378, 1116 (Oval Cross Shoes, Oval Shoe Cross with Reducer)
If pipe is oval and "Allow Branches On Flats" option was set to Yes, branch holes development was positioning the holes incorrectly.
Page

Job Contents
Resolved problem with "Job Contents" view not displaying correctly, column widths were being set to 0.
Scripting
Application fix to resolve issue with scripting objects that reported Top and Bottom of items, were not taking into account Pipe OD's.
Set Text
Relax the check when comparing ends to ascertain if a set is equal or setting up/down, the original check was causing patterns that differed by only 0.0001 to stop displaying the text when in multiple viewports.

Attacher Arrow
Reduced the size of the attacher arrow from a minimum of 50mm to 15mm diameter, when displayed on small bore pipe.
Collision Detection
New option added to database for collision detection to control if the viewer dialogue is displayed when a run time collision is detected, additionally control added for the colour of the collision marks.
Collision Marker
New option added to control the size of the Collision Detect Marker (Circle), as a percentage of the screen size.
Design Line
Option added to annotation settings to display the parameter's units after the values when showing the text on Design Lines Optimisation of Design Line Pressure Drop calculations to improve efficiency. Pressure Drop Dialog: Added facility to apply a source pressure to evaluate real flows for circuits. Pressure Drop Calculations: Added a 'Calculate Actual Flows' option, with this ticked the nonindex run circuit flows are adjusted to balance the pressure losses in the index run. This will increase the flows in the terminals so that each circuit has the same pressure loss as the index run. A side effect of this is that the index run pressure drop will increase because of the increase in source flow. Use of dampers on the nonindex run circuits to limit the flow on the other terminals will restore the original index run pressure loss. Added the ability to add eccentric reducers to form part of a noncentre line tee. Added "Auto Elevation" update mode. With this enabled on the Design Line interface changes in fixby to or from centreline amend the working elevation automatically. New feature added to Hanger Specifications for use with Design Line, option added to apply before and/or after joint positions. Now allows end of line couplings that are configured as reducers to be filled at end of line in a similar way to cap ends. Constraints Editor now displays the current units, the entered values are displayed in the converted units New feature added to "Button Properties" dialog to set a "Prompt for Length" attribute. When the fitting is taken off to apply to a Design Line, a dialog is displayed to prompt the user to enter the fittin's length. This overrides the fitting's default length.
Main Database
Default the "Restrict to Same TAB " to OFF when updating. New option to draw the Centre Line of round items on the 3D Layer instead of the Centre Line layer, when the setting "Only show Edge Lines if Pipe Diam > value" is active. Page 45 of 52
Fill 2 Ends now supported in the feature to "Stretch Existing Items for Fill Tools" option on the CADDuct Solids BSS page of the Main Database. With this option selected, existing Straight Items are stretched rather than adding new pieces.
Menu Groups
Included the "ACA" Menu Group name to list of names the Toolbar and Menu get added to automatically when loading AutoCAD.
OPENJOB
Support added for internal shells created by importing underlays into uCADMAP, PM, i.e. structural IFC files, when opening jobs (CAJ, EST or MAJ) via OPENJOB command.
Pattern Type
Pattern Type of "Rectangular Duct" added to the following CID's CID 1120 (Taper + 2 Bends) CID 1130 (2 Bends) CID 1131 (Taper + Bend)
Price Lists
Added support to convert SET for per qty and REEL for per ft/m as recognised tags when updating price lists.
Print Objects
New print objects added for Item material, Skin and insulation colour.
Service Database
New options added to add default lineweight when creating Layers. New option added to "Service Database" to enable user to apply which Status fields can be output to ESJ/MAJ files, when executing the export to CAM function.
Splitter Tabs
Splitters now support the addition of "Tabs" on developments, options added to splitter setup in Pattern Database to set tab width, length and quantity. Note: CADDuct users can access this in Full Database Edit mode.
Spooling
1. New options added to "Execute Script" and "Export Item Data" for each spool created, either from a DWG or to a Layout Tab. 2. Job Name now updated to reflect the spool name, even in each layout, for reporting. 3. When spooling to DWG, all viewports are zoomed to the spools extents.
Sub Assembly
Improved support for Sub Assemblies in Design Line. Page 46 of 52
USEVPTWISTANGLE
New command allowing the user to set whether the Viewport Twist Angle is used for Text Alignments when aligned to View, for Version 1 text only (setting is saved per Drawing).
CID1142 (Ellipse)
Ellipse pattern
Ductboard
New pattern CID 1136, Plenum Box, based on current pattern 926
New Pattern
Added new pattern CID 1144 TriPro Damper Added new pattern CID 1145, Duct Board Slot Plenum
CTEXT Reports
CText fields that require the CADMatrix3D for the calculations of positions (Connectors, Centre of Gravity) were not updating as the object was being moved, it required a rebuild or edit to update, now it is automatic.
Design Line
Resolved issue regarding the defining of the "Source Point" on the Design Line, placing an item with a button code of "Source" eliminates the need to position manually. Resolved issue with "Overridden" bends not filling when placed on a "Flex Filled" Design Line. Resolved issue with Design Line "Auto Fill Hangers" feature, updating the job. This was effectively causing a regen each time. Fill in 3D Design line failing to fill bends when template bends have locked angles even with very slight differences. Tolerances have now been relaxed to allow filling to be consistent with the way that product listed bends or catalogues are filled. Velocity Annotation Fixed an issue with velocity annotation on the line not using the rounded sizes for the velocity calculations an issue with multiply constrained lines. Terminal Logic Fixed an issue with template terminal logic creating invalid models, then also using incorrectly sized flex. Workaround for this is to setup carryover dimensions on the terminals to be bigger than the required spigot sizes. Improvement to Design Line fill routine for inline tees, will result in less branches bridging over more than one straight length. Resolved issue with Design Line placing an incorrect shaped Cap End into the system. Resolved issue with Change Units option on terminal from wiping out the unit description. Resolved issue with "OffsetShapeChange" node being generated incorrectly. Improved shoe placements in Design Line, particularly for angled branches and non centre line tee junctions.
Ductboard
Page 48 of 52
Fixed a typo causing Ductboard seam islands to still be wrongly included in the area calculation. Fixed area calculations possibly appearing doubled with some ductboard tool settings.
MAP Backup
Improved error reporting when selecting zip file to restore, now prompt autopopup browse dialog if not zip not found. Added support for profiles and new import/job file types.
Output to Viewer
When exporting to a CAJ file (Viewer), ADT Secion_Lines were being converted to objects with 0 faces, causing the extents in the viewer to incorrect, so Zoom to Fit failed.
Pattern Dependencies
When applying a Dependency to a dimension, restrict the list of available dimension descriptions to the ones used by the pattern, instead of all dimensions used by the Master pattern.
Print Objects
Resolved issue with "Dimension List" object not obeying "Show Real Values" switch, for example if Straight pattern is set to "Auto", switch displays item's actual length value in reports.
Rise/Fall Symbols
Resolved issue with rectangular "Rise & Fall" symbols changing orientation when the Paper Orientation of the plot was changed.
Scripting
Resolved issue with application crash when script file was reusing a variable that was getting deleted.
Spool Drawings
Page 49 of 52
Fixed bug when creating Spool Drawings 1. Custom Data Field values were not being cloned from the original drawing. 2. Custom Data Fields were only being cloned if an "Update Title with Report" was being used.
Worksheets
Fixed scaling issue and print quality when printing from Worksheets.
Xrefs
When xreffing a drawing with a name that is not valid for a layer name (i.e. contains a comma , ) AutoCAD will prompt for a substitute name for the reference, this was not being picked up as a valid layer name to draw the text and edge line onto, so xrefs were missing detail (text, clines, edge lines etc).
Ductboard
All Ductboard patterns now have following pattern types: Rectangular/Ductboard. Dongle type of all Ductboard patterns now = Ductboard. Page 51 of 52
CID 1124, 1129 (Ductboard Twin bend & Parallel Straight): added Patterns Connector SplitDims, so patterns select gauge using split connector sizes (bottom connectors individual elements size, not connectors full size). Added lengths for fold lines on "Throat Wrapper". Added fold line's angle and extra development lengths for folding.
Ductboard Patterns
Recent change to include ductboard seams in costing caused possible multiple section annotation texts which were superimposed and unreadable, added ductboard tool numbers to sections to enable create section annotation texts for the first island only.
Pattern Change
CID 184 (Segment Bend on Tee) Bend height annotation was being measured incorrectly from the bend centre instead of from the pipe center
