VTube is now faster due to some important changes to the user interface.

Now VTube can import the new BEND-TECH 7x format as well as the older version 6 format.

VTube can now import DENGLER VDS files. (DENGLER VDS files contain centerline XYZ coordinates.)

VTube can now exportDENGLER VDS files. (DENGLER VDS files contain centerline XYZ coordinates.)

VTube is designed to handle multiple displays.

We discovered that, for windows arrangements where the Windows Desktop is not on the far left monitor, VTube might not print the graphics image properly in reports.

This has been fixed in this version.

VTube always attempts to keep the original XYZ orientation when you perform a Reverse Calc from LRA to centerline XYZ data.

We discovered that certain situations would cause VTube to lose the orientation during Reverse Calc.

This has been fixed in this version.

VTube would incorrectly build a single tube to both a single part drawing and a SOLIDWORKS assembly.

Since VTube is building a single tube in SOLIDWORKS the best action is to always build a single part drawing.

The build logic has been fixed in this version.

If there are multiple parts in VTube, then VTube will still allow you to choose between building all the parts into one drawing, or building all the parts into a SOLIDWORKS assembly.

VTube has a new Minimum Clamp Length field in the Part Setup menu.

If any bender data length is shorter than the minimum clamp length, then VTube will now issue a warning in the header above the viewport.

If any bend angle is less than 0.1 degrees, VTube will now issue a "Zero-degree bend" warning in the header above the viewport.
