Highlights
- Expanded dimensioning with complete linear, aligned, angular, radius, diameter, ordinate, geometric tolerance, arc-length, and jogged-radius workflows, including associative updates, grips, properties, layout, rendering, and explode behavior.
- Completed editing workflows for single-line text, multiline text, and tables; improved multileader persistence, grips, styles, and annotative scaling, with richer MText columns, masks, and editor controls.
- Broadened drawing and modeling workflows for hatches, associative center marks and centerlines, 2D solids, multilines, arcs, circles, points, rectangles, donuts, boundaries, revision clouds, gradients, wipeouts, and freehand sketches.
- Introduced new OpenCADStudio branding and a responsive, search-friendly web landing page.
Modeling, drawing and annotation
- Added kernel-backed exact solid operations and corrected saved solid booleans, selection flows, circle geometry, tangent construction, planar snapping, offset, and break behavior.
- Added complete table creation and editing, inherited-property editing, XDATA visibility, wide dropdown controls, and corrected dimension-property routing.
- Improved ALIGN and OFFSET interaction and previews, extension/object tracking, wide-polyline fill boundaries, hatch draw order, and grouped draw-order operations.
- Improved block insertion, preset attributes, inserted-block zoom extents, paper-space viewport handling, and dimension definition-marker visibility.
Rendering, plotting and file fidelity
- Fixed dashed and complex linetype rendering for splines and polylines, aligned model/paper-space scale behavior, and prevented missing-pattern viewport plotting failures.
- Added non-printing layer support and layer usage reporting for indexed plot styles; corrected named/indexed plot-style behavior across preview, PDF export, and printing.
- Improved hatch stroke weights, wipeout order, text placement, MText masking, multileader persistence, rotated views, sheet viewport detection, and grid/selection rendering performance.
- Improved save and recovery behavior, preserved current-layer data, 3D views and thumbnails, and corrected drawing-file persistence across the new annotation entities.
Interface, web and plugins
- Added the new application logo, updated documentation imagery, Bulgarian documentation, and German localization corrections.
- Added a responsive web landing page with improved image sizing and search metadata.
- Added
SelectionChangedV4delivery for V4 plugins, host dependency pinning and compatibility gating, plugin architecture documentation, and the MCP Bridge registry entry. - Fixed plugin runner polling transport desynchronization and shutdown behavior.
Maintenance
- Updated codec and geometry-kernel revisions used by the new entity and modeling workflows.
- Improved recovery portability on web targets and reduced repeated grid and plugin-selection work.
