New and Changed in GenerativeComponents CONNECT Edition?

CONNECT Edition Changes

  • GenerativeComponents is included in OpenBuildings Designer as companion feature with the ABD Add-in which contains BIM node types.
  • The way Generated Node Types (GNTs) are stored changes so that they become less dependent on regeneration in each new version of GenerativeComponents. This change no longer requires executing the scripts which create the GNTs; it is only required to exchange the GNTs themselves and load them through the new GNT Manager dialog.
  • The UX renovation has been implemented. The update of icons match the overall Bentley CONNECT Edition style. The first level UX (ribbon, major dialogs), as well as other dialogs and context menus are standardized with CONNECT Edition products.
