Select by property

Run Select by property from the command bar to select features by any property. Pick values from a list or set a numeric range, then replace the current selection, add to it, subtract from it, or intersect with it. For stacked buildings, you can match each piece separately or use their combined total.

Content Library: Shared with me. A new tab for everything shared with you. Quickly find content you have been given access to from any workspace or colleague.

​Shell flow node

A new shell node turns a line or outline into a band of a set thickness, placed inside, outside or centered on the line, with a choice of corner style. Use it for walls, paths and borders.

New preferences

Six new settings in Preferences.

• Lock or hide the active layer: The active layer can be locked or hidden, and making a layer active no longer unlocks or shows it. Drawing or pasting onto a locked layer offers to unlock it.
• Drag midpoint to insert and move: Drag a midpoint handle to add a vertex and move it in one go. Requires “Hover to insert midpoints” to be on.
• Toolbar position in Spaces: Docks the toolbar in spaces separately from projects.
• Keep layers and scenarios inside blocks: Features in a block keep their own layer and scenario. When this is off, blocks with mixed contents show a warning and offer Clear layers or Clear scenarios.
• Show exposed inputs on new nodes: Nodes added from menus and search use their exposed-input versions.
• ​Default line width and point radius: Preferences → New shapes sets the line width and point radius for lines, outlines and points you draw without a usage.

Improvements

Data Table

• Filters, search and sort agree in the table and on the map. Saved filters pick up the new rules without migration:
• is not and does not contain also match blank values, so "status is not archived" now includes features with no status.
• yes/no and true/false read as booleans in any case. Dates written YYYY/MM/DD or YYYYMMDD count as that day.
• Search is word-based and case-insensitive. Closing the data table clears it from the map.
• Invalid values in required workspace properties block New Project, Save As and Bulk Save, with the reason under the field.
• Add selection to project now asks before simplifying geometry. It shows how many features and vertices change, lets you set the tolerance for this import, and blocks imports the server would reject.
• Read Property colouring says how many features hold a value that isn't a colour and will draw black.
• Filter chips gain a remove button and an "Any of" chip for OR groups.
• Double-click a layer to activate its data table; double-click a draw layer to make it the active layer.

Drawing, blocks and flows

• Drawing gains optional snap to angles, perpendicular snap, Shift to snap closed, and an angle gauge on corner vertices.
• Pressing Space in an empty command bar repeats your last command, now including drawing a building or a specific usage.
• Create a usage from scratch from its type, instead of duplicating and renaming an existing one.
• Block patterns node evaluates blocks into the patterns the Pattern Book node takes, with an optional rotation per block.
• Draw bar dropdowns are resizable, and Draw offset line is back. Drawing a block from the block or flow manager highlights its tool.
• Editing a generative input node default opens a modal over the flow.

Content Library

• "Edit My Content" is now See My Content, and its tiles have the same Get/Open, details and edit actions as other tabs.
• Every Apps pack gets its own tile, so a second pack bundling the same app no longer disappears.
• Marketplace loads public layers only when you open the Layers chip.
• Home's Content Packs tab is greyed out for core workspaces, like Templates.

Accounts and interface

• Workspace options left the main menu in favour of Home, and Remove SSO providers and logout moved to the profile menu.
• New project and new space maps show place labels. Text buttons get a subtle border back.
• The context bar and flow bar collapse controls in a better order as they narrow.
• You can delete several layer groups at once. Deleting from any selected row now removes the whole selection.
• Vistas: 2D views can be resized and have their DPI set, and 3D views and scenes can show the camera frustum.

SDK & Apps

• switchLayout(layout) switches the shown layout by id or exact name, like clicking its tab.
• enableBottomBarIframe, disableBottomBarIframe and updateUiLayout({ bottomBarIframe }) work again as deprecated shims over app panels. The URL must share the app's origin.
• insertBlock docs now show placing blocks without user interaction via createRawSection(s).
• Apps can capture an image of a saved view at an exact size, in 2D or 3D.
• createProject now runs the same boundary checks as the server. Boundaries of 40,000–50,000 characters are blocked before saving instead of failing on save, and bulk create is all-or-nothing: if any project fails, none are created.
• Vista.details.camera.longitude and Vista.details.camera.latitude are deprecated.

Bug fixes

Generative

• Skeleton Editor no longer drops whole bands when a wing is exactly twice the offset wide. Footprint coverage on an L-shape is back to 100% from 30%.
• The Skeleton Editor no longer produces wrong shapes at some corners and intersections.
• Apartment layouts in existing projects no longer reshuffle. A v6 endcap change had moved units in 727 projects across 234 workspaces and pulled the built mix further from target; it is reverted.
• Mix Subdivision fixes two edge cases, now covered by tests.

Editing

• Floor to Floor accepts two decimal places again.
• Delete removes selected vertices while editing the project boundary, and undo/redo work there.
• Typing a distance to move an edge no longer changes the shape's opacity, and draped shapes respect their fill opacity.
• Escape closes the App Library and Layer Library wherever focus is, instead of acting on the map behind.
• Zooming in close in top view no longer cuts off buildings taller than a few metres.
• Boolean union now joins shapes it used to fail on, matching Shape builder.
• On small or narrow shapes, dragging an edge handle now stretches only that side instead of resizing the whole shape.

Interface

• The context bar drops building controls once a section stops producing a building.
• Number-key opacity shortcuts work again.
• Map search in the context bar shows its dropdown of locations again, and the block editor's top bar fits small screens.
• Pressing Enter in a text field no longer completes the shape builder.
• Number fields in the property editor accept values outside the slider range again, such as a negative base height.
• Apps no longer have requests rejected when they send them while still loading.
• The top view shortcut (T) works again after you start drawing a usage from the draw bar.
• Typing a space in the command bar no longer opens the keyboard shortcuts window.
• Project boundaries are made valid when saved, and permission checks on a deleted layer no longer error.
