What's new in this version:

Improvements to BricsCAD Core:
OPTIMIZE:
- A progress meter and a cancel option have been added to the Optimize command

PARAMETRIC BLOCKIFY:
- Warnings about 2D geometry, fixed and external constraints are now combined

TOOL PALETTES:
- Tool palettes containing separators now display a single scrollbar for the entire palette

Improvements to BricsCAD BIM:
BIM Properties:
- The Room Bounding property now displays correctly, as a Space bounding

BIMPYTHON:
- Now allows for the selection of entities inside of nested blocks
- We've optimized the performance of 'within distance mapping', to detect interferences with background geometry during a Propagate command run

Drawing Customization:
- It is now possible to load drawing customizations from an external folder to the local library
- We have optimized the processing of drawings for large models
- Performance of the axis calculation algorithm for linear elements is improved

Improvements to BricsCAD Mechanical:
SMEXPORTOSM:
- A problem that occured, when assigning different thicknesses per body in a sheet metal assembly, has been fixed

Improvements to Civil Modeling:
Alignment Properties:
- Arc radius and element type properties for SCS elements are now properly implemented
- Improvements to Communicator for BricsCAD

IMPORT:
- A new, experimental option is available when importing SolidWorks files. It allows users to choose the data you want to import from SolidWorks files (SLDASM/SLDPRT). The following procedures are available: Graphics - B-Rep data will be imported as Meshes; Geometry - is the default mode, imports B-Rep data as ACIS solids; Geometry with Preview Graphics - imports saved graphics first, displays them, and then imports B-Rep data. The "Geometry with Preview Graphics" option can be very useful when importing large assemblies/parts. To enable it, set the CommunicatorBackgroundImport option to [1].

IMPORT:
- Improved support for the import of Autodesk® Inventor 2020 files

Fixed:
BIMCLASSIFY:
- Copies of BIM Rooms can now be correctly classified as Spaces

BIMQUICKDRAW:
- The reference faces of walls are now set correctly

BIMSPACE:
- The default representation of Spaces created by Bimify is set to 'Footprint'

BLOCK:
- Windows included in new Blocks are now processed correctly

BLOCKIFY:
- Now correctly identifies and converts bend solids in a HVAC model

BMINSERT:
- When the 'Select all affected solids' option is chosen, adjacent solids are now properly cut by the subtractor solids

CHAMFER:
- 3D solids processed by the CHAMFER command no longer disappear after saving the drawing as AutoCAD 2010 or later

CUI:
- A problem that occured when loading a .mnu (or .mns) file, with duplicated menu item labels of inconsistent case, is fixed

DMPUSHPULL:
- The Hot Key Assistant (HKA) now shows the correct, current action

Dimensions:
- Dimension tools now allow for the selection of source entities on locked Layers

Drawing Customization Panel:
- We performed a small fix to remove an unwanted warning that occurred when creating a new entity customization using the default name

Drawing Customization:
- Fixed a bug in the customization of hidden line types

Dynamic Blocks:
- Fixed a bug rearing its ugly head during the modification of a specific dynamic block

Export to Datasmith:
- The missing file 'DatasmithSDK.dll' was added to the BricsCAD installer

Import TIN File:
- When importing a TIN from a file, the value of the FILEDIA system variable was not respected, causing the File dialog box to always be displayed. This is fixed now

Library Panel:
- The category and item name now show on top of the Gallery view in the Library panel

Mechanical Browser:
- Fix setting geometry-driven status of a constraint in Mechanical Browser property editor

MoveGuided:
- Fixed an issue where Hatches were not created properly

OPEN:
- A specific drawing file, written by Autodesk® Inventor, now displays all geometry as expected

POLYSOLID:
- Changing the justification option no longer creates zero-width Polysolids

Panels:
- Deleting the current Panel when 'STACKPANELTYPE=0' now properly activates the next Panel.

Properties Panel:
- CenterMark and CenterLine properties are now properly preserved after property edits are made to these entity types, via the Properties Panel. This is a regression since V21 FCS.

Quickbuilding:
- Spatial location assignments are improved, when Spaces are used as inputs

Quickbuilding:
- Outer walls consisting of multiple lumps are now separated into multiple solids, automatically
- RFA - Components Panel
- RFA thumbnails are now generated through the "Generate Thumbnail" menu

SELECT:
- Text on top of a 3D Solid can be easily selected now

Sheet Sets Panel:
The sheet set title is displayed once again after fixing a regression introduced in the previous release
Fixed a form-feature extraction issue with one-sided, closed form features

VBA:
- Saving a loaded VBA project no longer prompts the user to save a drawing file

WMFOUT for TTF fonts:
- Export of WMF files that include TTF fonts now works as expected.

Applications:
BRX AcDbSweepOptions:
- Provided "setSweepEntityTransform()" and "setPathEntityTransform()" functions

LISP (vl-propagate):
- LISP variables are properly propagated into newly-created drawings (or the second assignment of the same drawing)
