Check.jpg Other Changes

  • VTube now stores the orientation of the tube model in the viewport in the project file.

  • Supravision bender output did not include the last radius value in the Supravision file. This is repaired.

  • Multiple presses of the "Copy Master LRA" button in the Bender Setup menu no longer increases the blue column data be the adjustment data.

  • When saving output to the Winton ECNC4 format, the filename is now automatically set to the current part name.

  • When creating a PDF file, the word "VTube-" is no longer inserted at the beginning of the filename. The filename is made up of the part number alone (appended with PDF).

  • The "Custom" point setting is no longer allowed in the Point Alignment Selection window, since the alignment points must be based on points along the MASTER and MEASURED centerline points along the tube.
