Utils

• Disable Access to old integration way (without Dtk_API)
• Improved Dtk_Hatching::GeneratePatternGeometries method.

Readers

• ACIS
  • Fixed incorrect number of bodies
  • Improved parsing of parts
• Catia V5
  • 2D: Improvement of Hatching reading.
  • 2D: Improvement of Callout Text reading.
  • 2D: Improvement of DrwPicture reading: We process DrwPicture into 2DComponent.
  • FDT: Dtk_Dimension extra curves are not stored as Geometric_set anymore.
    They are now stored as Dtk_EntityPtr.
    They can be accessed by Dtk_Dimension::GetAdditionnalGeometries() method.
    
  • FDT: Added Dtk_NodeConnector::ForceVisible reason to Dtk_NodeConnector in case of Capture->PMI connector.
  • FDT: Changed Dtk_NodeConnector::OrientationallyFixed to Dtk_NodeConnector::Support reason in case of Capture -> Support view connector.
  • FDT: Added support of [PT]/[SL]/[PL] links from ReferenceFrames by adding Dtk_NodeConnector to the Dtk_Fdt Node.
  • FDT: Added support of 'ExtendedCylinder' PMI Construction Geometry.
  • 3D/FDT: Link to edges/vertices improvement.
  • 3D: Added extension of nurbs surface when needed.
  • Warning! as a result of changes in assembly reading, "persistent ids" may change
• DWG
  • Added the 2018 support
• IFC
  • Fixed missing metadatas (property set)
• Inventor
  • Added missing metadata for assemblies
  • Improved parsing of materials
  • Fixed incorrect body for sheet metal parts
  • Improved parsing of files created with versions before 11
• Obj
  • Added .mtl files as Virtual Component children of root component
• Proe/Creo Reader
  • Explode View Processed (available in a catalog component)
  • Connectors improvment
  • Assembly reading improvment
  • 2D:
    • Geometry projection improvment
• Revit
  • First release of Revit Reader : Version Revit 2017.x
  • Reads assemblies, geometries and colors. Revit entities recorded as Components and Nodes Geometries as : Body or Mesh
• Rhino
  • Improved read of layers
  • Added missing curves
• Unigraphics
  • Added support for UGNX12 version .
  • Fixed NX11 definition entity
  • 3D/FDT:
    • Added UserExpression as Dtk_Metada with MetaDataTypeEnum as TypeUserExpression
    • Added missing geometry link for FDT connector
    • Added information on Datum_Plane created from AxisSystem (See SubType as AxisSystem)
    • Added PhysicalProperties on body
    • Added Metadata Weigth/Mass if present .
    • Fixed name of PMI
    • Fixed name of Dtk_ModelDisplay
    • Fixed name of Dtk_LayerFilterInfos
    • Fixed definition of Dtk_Welding with Body , Other and Arrow symbol definition
    • Managed CodePage 1251 .
    • Removed wrong geometry link for FDT connector
    • Removed duplicated polyline for extension curve on leader
    • Removed duplicated curve for symbol
  • 2D/Drawing:
    • Added missing symbol geometry
    • Added missing symbol
• Jt
  • PMI are now invisible by default.
  • several ameliorations
• Solid Edge (2D)
  • Improved writing of balloons, concentric diameter, and distance cotations
  • Added support of Feature callout and tolerances for distance cotations
  • Fixed decimal precision for cotations
• Solid Edge (3D)
  • Fixed choice of parasolid
  • Fixed some missing components
• Solidworks
  • Added Solidworks 2018 Reading
  • Improved reading of some feature assembly
  • Improved reading of some virtual components
  • Improved persistent names of Dtk_Component
  • Fixed parsing errors
  • PMI : Fixed inconsistent names
• Step
  • Support of texts coded with Windows CODEPAGE 936, controlled by configuration (CODEPAGE_IDENTIFIER=CP936)
  • PMI : protection of duplicate geometric link
  • PMI : improved reading of composite tolerances, of stacked tolerances
  • PMI validation properties : improved case coverage
  • PMI graphics : support of tessellated graphics ONLY for PDF writing
  • PMI semantics : improved dimensions
  • 3D solid : protection on wrong geometries (when splitting)
  • STEP BO XML : improved reading of external references
  • STEP BO XML : enhanced coverage of Effectivities , instance effectivities now attached to prototype

Writers

• Pdf
  • Handled Fdt terminators as polygons rather than rasterized lines
• Step
  • For PMI, default schema is AP242 but AP214 can be enforced
  • For PMI, default graphics is now POLYLINE, not character_based (WRITE_POLYLINE : set -1 for character_based)
