Hotfix Allplan 2022-1-1

Release notes (04/27/2022)

General

We edited and corrected various messages of Quality Reporter. As a result, Allplan is more stable and reliable.

Quality Reporter has been improved and enhanced for better analysis.

System requirements

The minimum requirement for graphics cards of 4 GB RAM is now controlled correctly.

MSI Setup

Since the content of the Schöck catalog provided for Allplan is no longer up to date, we have removed the entry 'Schoeck' in the 'Manufacturer-specific user data' section during installation. This means that you can no longer reinstall the Schöck catalog; the Schöck catalog you already have, however, remains in place.

Plugins

Lumion LiveSync

For the plugin 'Lumion LiveSync' the English version is now available.

Once you have selected the 'Start LiveSync' function, Lumion LiveSync cannot be started again by selecting the function again.

If you closed Allplan while Lumion LiveSync was still running, the program crashed; this has now been fixed.

For all currently available functions, the F1 help or the Allplan direct help now calls up the general description of Lumion LiveSync.

The settings for the camera view have been adjusted. This results in identical representations in Allplan and Lumion.

Teamwork

Bimplus

In certain cases, objects were not uploaded to Bimplus without an error message; this has now been fixed.

The repeated upload of modified parts with many attributes from Allplan to Bimplus has been accelerated.

When selecting the type of upload from Allplan to Bimplus, you can now optionally specify the creation of a new revision. A detailed description on how to upload is now available.

AutoCAD interface

You can now transfer attributes without values during DWG export.

During DWG import of certain data, activating the 'Smart Symbol' option in the 'Explode elements' area caused the program to crash; this has now been fixed.

IFC Interface

Exporting certain data caused the program to crash; this has now been fixed.

Attributes

Assigning user attributes in the building structure caused the program to crash; this has now been fixed.

User interface

The display of the login in the title bar can now be grayed out or hidden via a registry entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

Landscaping

Site Plan

After moving terrain points, the coordinates of the terrain points are now correctly updated in the associative 'Site Plan Legend'.

Basics

In certain cases, after changes in the building structure, drawing files could only be assigned on second attempt; this has now been fixed.

Text

Modifying text properties via the properties palette has been accelerated.

When copying text with text pointers via the clipboard from a free NDW to a drawing file, the text pointers are now displayed correctly.

Dimensioning

If you want to dimension circular components with associative curve dimensioning, the display of the component axis must be selected in the options. In this case, only the component axis can be dimensioned. However, if you create a non-associative curve dimensioning, the display of the component axis is not required and all component edges can be dimensioned again.

Moving objects with a curve dimensioning has been accelerated.

Visualization

Loading HDRI images as background in animated view caused program crash in OpenGL mode with certain Intel graphics cards; this is now fixed.

Views and Sections

When placing reinforcement in a section with the 'Height from elements' option, the height of the section body now remains unchanged again. When you move the reinforcement, the section object is also moved back into the correct position.

In sections with the 'Show thick cutting edges' option enabled, the surface elements of components for which the 'Color from layer' setting is selected are now displayed with the correct color again.

When changing the data in model space, the length of the axis projections and the number of grid lines of the axis grid now remain unchanged in views and sections.

Creating XRefs of views and sections with the 'Automatically update' option disabled has been improved.

Improved execution of the 'Fit' function for views without loaded model data.

For sections, the section identifiers are now listed by ascending items in the section management selection list, rather than by ascending numerical values.

Architecture

Unfinished structure

Individual wall styles with attributes of the wrong type are no longer treated as faulty by the Allplan Quality Manager.

Railings

If you transfer a railing from the wizard by double-clicking it on the right, the polygonization will work again.

Engineering

The quality of Allplan has been further improved by addressing comprehensible messages from the Allplan Quality Manager.

Bar reinforcement

The recognition of ACI Shape Code 16 has been improved.

Creating a free bar shape in a circular component with the 'Match edges' setting enabled has been improved.

Mesh Reinforcement

When placing bent-up meshes defined in views and sections in the model space, the mesh shape shifted; this has now been fixed.

Allplan Bridge

We have updated the ‘Allplan Bridge’ plug-in. DETAILS

Visual Scripting

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

Allplan International

The English localization has been corrected for the 'Import Attributes' function.

France

An Excel file created with the function 'Export Quantity Data', for which the report template 'General Object Attributes' was used, can now be imported again.

USA

Export Soule has been improved for bar placements with sleeves.

Czech Republic/Slovenia

The message during PDF import regarding font replacement has been corrected.
