Mitcad 0.10.0: easier BUILD placement, sections and booleans that survive kernel crashes, threads and spiral stairs as clean solids
BUILD
- Parts go into the nearest component that takes components, so a new
design needs no component activated first. The first part is placed by
Enter at the origin or by a plane pick, standing along X, Y or Z. - The panel grows as the placement needs it, and only usable targets
highlight. Side placements snap flush with the target's ends and never
overhang it.
Modelling
- Threads of one profile on a cylinder, including threads whose turns
meet, are built as single solids, and booleans on them stay fast. - Spiral stairs with helical stringers join into clean solids. More
fillet corners and chamfer ends are built. - Split regions keep all their pieces, and cut pieces keep their ids. The
Dimension tool sets signed dimensions, also between points. - Sketches solve coincidences within the tolerance. Sections of bodies
can be used as sketch curves, and projections follow chains of edges. - Section Analysis reports a crash inside the geometry kernel as an
error instead of closing the app. Mesh bodies take part in sections and
booleans, and building-scale models mesh.
Import
- .rvt projects: stair runs, risers and landings, multistory stair
copies, rails with their supports, fillets, helix corners and plumb
ends, trimmed mullions and slab edges. - Linked planes and curves come in with their own components; cones of a
tiny angle are read as cylinders.
Automation
- The MCP interface reports failed features, inserts parts, saves and
opens live documents and sets the camera.
User interface
- The docked sketch palette scrolls, and the Projects tree indents as
the Browser does.
