Check.jpg NEW: Automatic Build to SolidWorks

VTube can now automatically build a parametric 3DSketch tube in SolidWorks. VTube uses automation features to become the user and draw the part in SolidWorks 3DSketch, then sweep the diameter and shell the part is a wall thickness value is greater than zero.

If SolidWorks is not loaded, then VTube will attempt to load SolidWorks first. If SolidWorks is already open, then VTube will create a new part in a new window automatically.

Check.jpg FIX: Multiple Split Bend LRA Data

Multiple split bends in VTube-STEP would cause miscalculations in the LRA grid. This has been repaired.

Also repaired: The compressed to decompressed LRA procedure now works properly.
