Fill path / line:
Can fill a line or path with nicks
Fills the path if lines are already grouped into a path
If the lines are not already grouped into a path, select a path by clicking the start line and the end line
Flexible options
specify the offset of the first nick or set of nicks from either or both ends of a line or path
separately change the number of nicks in a set and the number of sets
Other enhancements
The maximum number of nicks on a line is increased from 20 to 120
A nicked line or path can be designated as tear or indent only for 3D
Minor change in the Group Sequence tool if the lines are cuts
select holes more quickly and efficiently.
reduce the time it takes to make a die-board.
create a wood edge around the sheet with expected proper horizontal split to begin the hole selection process when starting the tool.
adjust all elements like: die edge, die splits, layout position and rotary bolt holes patter position, and modify bolt holes with a single tool.
start in die-board layer, die-split will be added if necessary, if die-board doesn’t exist.
Show good and all holes options
Select/deselect individual holes (allow drag rectangle)
Select/deselect rows and columns
Delete holes
Select individual holes with symmetry about split option.
Artwork panels interaction with 3D

Auto include documents to the BOM when saving or copying:
saves the designer time of opening the BOM dialog and changing the settings
Add non-ARD’s to a BOM:
allows for complete BOM to be defined in ArtiosCAD
including graphic files, clips, hooks, inserts, etc.
no need to create extraneous ARD document just to include it in a BOM
“Open all” documents in a BOM – simple one-click:
single click will open all BOM documents
will save much time over opening each file individually
Run outputs & exports from the browser:
run an output on document
search results from the browser
run exports on project documents from the browser
run a project BOM report from the browser
no need to open each document in ArtiosCAD before running an output, export or report
eliminates a lot of wasted steps/time
Document count on folders:
see the number of documents in folders (as in WebCenter)
eliminates the need to select a folder first, just to see there are no documents in it
Edit document details from the browser:
no need to open the document to change document details like attributes & characteristics
eliminates the wasted time of opening and saving a document just to change details
prevents new version being created when document details (meta data) are changed
ArtiosCAD honors the project statuses as set in WebCenter. Only the project status as defined in the template will be accessible. This eliminates the risk of using an invalid status.
Save Collada as native WebCenter file type with thumbnail. That way Collada files will have a thumbnail preview of the 3D image.
Native Collada viewing for 3D files – no more Cortona plug-in needed.
