New Features

Fixes & Enhancements

Draw & Create

  • Added inference snapping support for leader lines and inserting an image into a drawing.
  • Fixed an issue using undo with leader line segments.
  • Added the ability to set the direction of a leader in the leader and softscape label tools.
  • Added priority input to Style in create tools.

PDF/DWG/DXF Export:

  • Dimensions in exported PDFs will now have the same font and text size as shown when drawing in Creator.
  • Angle dimensions exported to PDF/DWG/DXF will have two decimal places of precision to match Creator.
  • Geometry on hidden layers was being skipped when exporting to DWG/DXF. It will now be included with the layer turned off. Hidden layers can then be turned back on in the layer panel of AutoCAD  when reviewing a drawing.    
  • Fixed an issue preventing some drawings containing hatched ellipses from being exported.
  • Fixed an issue preventing export to PDF when hatch edge vertices were stacked on top of each other.
  • Importing a PDF that contains images should no longer prevent exporting the drawing to PDF or omit images in the PDF.
  • Improved performance of DWG/DXF/PDF export when a drawing contains thousands of small hatches.

Import Drawing Notification

  •  A notification will be displayed when an import of a DWG, DXF, or vector PDF succeeds or fails.

Hatching

  • Added a new option to hatch using the page background color.
  • Improved hatch rendering quality for ellipses, ellipse arcs, circle and circle arcs.

Improvements to Figures & Line Weights

  • Line weights for Porch/Step and Drive/Road have been reduced. 
  • Line weights of the outer canopy in most tree figures have been reduced from 5 to 4.
  • Fixed several tree and shrub figures that would lose their outer boundary when a Color swatch was applied.
  • Rearranged the Shrubs figure category into a more logical order.
  • Moved three figures from Palms to Trees.
  • New drawings will default to Shrub Marker and Tree Marker layers being hidden. They can be shown by using Show All, Dimensions, or Irrigation layer presets.

Miscellaneous

  • Fixed an issue where angle dimensions would not follow the mouse cursor as they were being created.
  • Fixed an issue with hidden entities in figures preventing Zoom to Extents from working correctly.
