** CADPower V 15.04
New command: CP_XD_RENAMEAPP: CADPower -> Extended Entity Data -> Rename XDATA application name attached to entities: The CP_XD_RENAMEAPP command is used to change the application name in XDATA that is already attached to entities.
You can use this tool as a means to transfer extended entity data from one application to another.
Enhancement: CP_BOM (CADPower -> BOM/BOQ Tools -> Create Bill of Materials/Quantities): The CP_BOM command now optionally also processes external reference blocks.
Bug fix: CP_FLIP (CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Flip -> Flip (Reverse) direction): There was a bug which caused wrong results if a closed 2d polyline had a non-zero elevation. This has been fixed now.
Enhancement: CP_TXTEVAL (CADPower -> Text -> Apply arithmetic/statistical operations on text objects): A new option called 'Sum [Add up]' has been added which will add up all the selected numbers and create a new text (or block) object.
Bug fix: CP_MVEDIT: (CADPower-> Polyline-> Vertex Management-> Mulitple Vertex Editor): CP_MVEDIT is a precision editing tool for selectively editing polyline vertex coordinates. The greying-in and out of the edit tiles have been made and is in sync now.
Bug fix: CP_BOM: (CADPower -> BOM/BOQ Tools -> Create Bill of Materials/Quantities): There was an inconsistency in the way the 'MultipleBlocks' based BOM blocks selection was processed. The blocks defined in the INI file are now considered as the blocks which will be selectable for processing.
CADPower V 15.03
Enhancement: CP_AUTODIM: (CADPower -> Miscellaneous -> CAD Procedures -> Automatic Dimensioning): The CP_AUTODIM command now accepts lines, polylines, arcs, circles as well as splines as input and an automatic dimension is now created cutting across all these entities.
Enhancement: CP_TC: (CADPower-> Text-> Creation-> Draw Quick Text [running numbers]): Alpha-numeric incrementing of text is now possible. If you set the starting charater value as A8, the series is now incremented as A9, A10, A11..... and so on.
Enhancement: CP_XD_SEARCH (CADPower -> Extended Entity Data -> Search and replace extended entity data): A new option called 'Search all codes' has been added in this command. Using this option, you can replace multiple (all) occurences of the selected XDATA code in one single operation instead of having to repeat the operation one at a time.
Bug fix: Menu: CP_CALCAREA (CADPower-> Polyline-> Inquiry Statistics-> Compute summed areas of closed polylines): There was a bug in this command when reporting area units in sq.m if the drawing unit was in mm. The output figure was off by a decimal place and was appearing 10 times larger than required. This has been fixed now.
Toolbar default display: Upon starting CADPower for the first time, the toolbars are NOT automatically displayed now. You can show and hide individual toolbars using the 'CADPower -> Toolbars & Flyouts' menu. The majority feedback we got was that the automatic switching on of all toolbars was not appreciated by many users.
Duplicate loading of pull-down menus: Applies to the BricsCAD version only. This has been fixed. Please do let me know if this problem persists on some displays.
New command : CP_GRIPHATCH (command-line only): Useful for BricsCAD users only, this is a workaround command that enables non-associative hatch patterns to be grip-edited.
GeoTools V 15.04
Bug fix: GT_FLIP (GeoTools -> Polyline Tools -> Direction Control -> Flip (Reverse) direction): There was a bug which caused wrong results if a closed 2d polyline had a non-zero elevation. This has been fixed now.
