Shape
Shapes (General)
- Certain standard BSI shapes were missing after after the initial upgrade to v5.2. This has been corrected. (42699, 2024-01-15)
- ACI shapes typically use an F for straight leg dimensions OR an R for radial dimensions. An enterprise option now allows you to create shapes that use both F and R. Shape Designer and reports that display shapes have been updated to accommodate this new option.
Shape Calculation and Validation
- Corrected issue in which legs displayed reversed on scaled image for certain 3D shapes. (47071, 2024-08-26)
- Corrected calculations and display for certain 3D shapes with "lifting hooks." (47034, 2024-08-29)
- Improved validations for entering "turns" values on custom spiral shapes. (45000, 2024-05-20)
- Improved validations for certain custom shapes similar to the following (45167, 2024-05-22)
- Scaled ACI shape 303 now displays properly. (43273, 2024-02-28)
- When you set a rule that 90 or 135 degree hooks are equal, the system now inserts the equal value properly. (43206, 2024-02-12)
- Eliminated "object reference" error that occurred if you tried to enter a custom shape that had an arc with 90 degree hooks. (42178, 2023-12-08)
- You can now enter a + to automatically insert J and J1 dimensions on Shape 209. (40934, 2023-09-28)
- Angles are now calculated correctly for certain custom shapes similar to the following. (40217, 2023-09-06)
Shape Designer
- You can now select or add a description for 3D shapes. (46076, 2024-07-10)
- A new Description field allows you to designate a shape as: Simple or Complex, or type in a user-defined description. (46010, 2024-07-03)
- You can now copy a shape, then delete an angle leg from the "new" shape. (44849, 2024-05-03)
- Validations now prevent you from renaming a shape and using invalid characters in the new ID. (43795, 2024-03-07)
- Eliminated error that occurred when you attempted to rename a leg on a 3D shape. (41880, 2023-11-27)
- It is now easier to add 90 degree legs without accidentally creating a slight angle. Improved the ability to fine-tune dimension positioning. (41474, 2023-10-26)
Tag Display
- Corrected an issue in which legs displayed on the shape picture, even though Display on Tag was not checked in shape creation. (43977, 2024-04-15)
- Corrected an issue in which Turns and XTurns data displayed on top of one another on the tag shape picture. (44170, 44174, 2024-03-25)
- When you select the option to display an angle, the angle value now displays properly. (44027, 44041, 2024-03-20)
- When you uncheck Display Leg Name on Reports, the leg is now hidden. (43077, 2024-01-31)
- When you add informational text to a custom shape, the text now displays on reports and tags. (40750, 2023-09-26)
- When you set Show on Tag rules for hook dimensions, the tag display is now correct based on your setting. (39763, 2023-08-25)
- Corrected issue in which angles did not display on tags for certain on-the-fly shapes. (40087, 2023-08-18)
