Released: Sep 16, 2021

Updates in 9.9002.1.0

Features

• Added new HatchingMethod.LinearView value to the vdHatchProperties.HatchMode property.
• Added support for InsUnits for each vdBlock separately.
• Added a new property ParallelFill of vdDocument.GlobalRenderProperties which specifies if solid filled regions and images will be drawn using a parallel_for procedure in 2D render mode.
• Improved fill of commands in the popup form of the commandline.
• Added a new vdPolyfaceHatched entity which implements all functionality for the vdPolyface object and the ability to fill faces with a hatch pattern. The following additional properties manage the hatch pattern usage for the object:
  • HatchPattern - Get/Set the hatch pattern. If it is null the object behaves like single vdPolyface.
  • HatchScale - Get/Set the hatch scale of the selected pattern. Default value is 1.0.
  • HatchAngle - Get/Set the hatch angle of the selected pattern. Default value is 0.0.
  • HatchOrigin - Controls the starting location in World Coordinate System for hatch pattern generation. Default value is null.
• Reduced the size of SVG export.
• Empty groups are no longer stored in the undo history.
• Added the ability to make the text of 3D dimensions be aligned properly relative to the dimension line.
• Added the ability to import linetypes and hatches using their dialogs.
• Added support for different color linetypes and lineweights for dimension Ext Line.
• Selection and drawing performance improvements.
• Improved Int32Array constructor.
• Added a new OpenGLFlags property to vdDocumet.GlobalRenderProperties.
• Added a command to draw a tangent line between two circles.
• Added two properties to the vdFramedControl:
  • Get/Set a boolean value to control whether the Menu.txt file will be loaded.
  • Get/Set a boolean value to control whether the Commands.txt file will be loaded.
• Added a new property to the Mtext object:
  • Get/Set a value representing if the Mtext will "cut" new lines (when BoxWidth is not 0.0) for every character and not only spaces. The default value is false which means that only spaces create new lines. Set this value to true and the Mtext will cut new lines for every character in the Mtext and not only spaces which is the default (false value) behavior.
