NC DSTV improvements

• Generate NC for unfolded flanged plates with single bend.
• Concentric holes are intercepted and reported in the log file for BO (holes) blocks.
• Inner contour calculations for complicated circular inner cuts.
• Refined M profile edge preparation.
• Higher precision calculation for saw length of shapes.

DetailCenter improvements

• Fractional dimensions now can be optionally controlled from MicroStation styles or from within the DetailStyle.
• A new Fraction style options tab is added to the Place Label tool.
• Revision Center is now quickly accessible via the ribbon (Steel > Drawing Production > Detailing). Previously accessible only from Detail Center.
• The Drawing Verification feature now generates two reports in the form of the [dgn file name]_OriginInsertionStructure.txt and [dgn file name]_VerifiedInsertionStructure.txt log files for all workshop drawings linked drawings in the model.

New Connections

• The Stiffener Distribution tool is introduced as a Technology Preview. Used for creating multiple stiffeners and placing them distributed along a steel shape.
• The Cross Bolting tool is introduced as a Technology Preview. Used for creating cross bolting connections between shapes and plates.

External Partlist

The need to detect part differences before generating external partlist databases can now be achieved via Position Number Checks introduced in the Partlist Creation workflow. Equal Part Settings along with the Edit Compare Criteria button allow you to manage the checking of component parts. Desired criteria selection and comparison methods are set in the Positionflags and Positioning Rules dialog.
