SMARTAnnotate Changelog

9.0.3.4

Avoid flushing undo/redo buffer due to selecting model items in solid or drawing
Improved mapkey support for the formats table in the user interface
Consider order of blocks when importing std-annotation set from user profile if set is not used yet and option 'enable_sorting' is set to 'yes'

Properly resolve notifications for outdated formats of variable size type
Avoid error message when exporting stack note user profiles containing custom notes with GD&T characters from symbol palette
Avoid blank rows within cells of repeat region drawing tables

Assert proper display of 3d annotations after automatic scaling due to graphical area outline change

New options to restrict auto-adding of not selected mandatory std-annotation blocks to specific lifecycle state
New API function 'SanNotificationRegisteredStatusGet': Get status whether there are any SMARTAnnotate related notifications registered for the model/drawing.
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationSetBlocksRemove': Removes supplied blocks from a Std-Annotation Set and update the symbols
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationSetsUpdate': Updates all Std-Annotation related symbols for the drawing/model
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationSetPlacementGet': Provides the placement information for the given Std-Annotation Set within the model/drawing
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationSetsGet': Gather Std-Annotation Set identifiers, that exist in the model/drawing
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationSetsRemove': The given Std-Annotation Sets are removed from the model/drawing
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationSetsWithMissingMandatoryBlocksAsMessageGet': Get a formatted message listing all Std-Annotation Sets and their mandatory blocks that have not yet been selected to be created within the model/drawing
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationUserProfileExport': Export Std-Annotation Sets created in the model/drawing to a XML file giving the full file path
New API function 'SanStdAnnotationUserProfileImport': Import Std-Annotation Sets via User Profile (XML) into model/drawing
New API function 'SanSymbolsByIdsDelete': Delete symbol instances via their ids from a model/drawing

Avoid user interface entries to move after an inputpanel or optionmenu was selected
Display entered value within preview window after input component lost the focus
Environment variable BUW_NO_GRAPHICS_BATCH_MODE is now obsolete

Avoid exception window in case preview window tries to display a symbol that has all entities hidden
Text ids are shown in user dialog that are intended to be translated
State of checkbutton 'Allow batch translation' does not correctly reflect the value of parameter defined by option
Do not consider chosen format definition for drawing sheet if format management was disabled by option 'enable_format_management'
Solid mode Stack-Note flags are not properly deleted from owning annotation feature

New ribbon command within administration group (overflow) to auto-create font character width mapping table used to vertically align stack notes
Possibility to set active symbol groups for selectable and regular symbols within format definitions
Define the placement coordinates of format tables and symbols drawing unit dependent
Define the placement coordinates of std-annotation sets drawing unit dependent
Pre-define 2D mode stacking direction for each std-annotation independently or reference the global setting of option 'expand_direction_2d'
Define a scaling factor for std-annotation set symbols that will be applied in 3D mode
Possibility to define the lifecycle state of a std-annotation set to be obsolete

Improved and simplified mechanism to configure symbol stacking for std-annotations in solid mode
Filter description bar beneath breadcrumb removed from user dialog. The description is now shown as tooltip within filter tree instead
Bread crumb component removed from user interface (redundant, change filter/context via tree on the left hand side)
Ribbon command Meta-Data is in solid mode now also active if no solid mode license option is available
The indentation level is now stored into user profiles for Stack-Notes
Option 'software_help_display_mode' deprecated. Documentation is now always displayed in Creo internal browser retrieved from buw support server

When importing a symbol from user-profile the user-dependent values are now reset to defaults before user-defined values are applied
Minor bug fixes

New option 'enable_dynamic_3d_annotation_resizing': 3D annotations are auto-resized after the size of the graphical window area got changed. This will flush the undo redo buffer.
Preview window for notes, symbols and tables displaying user-configured settings
Export and import symbols to a local xml file including all user-configured settings like chosen groups and entered or chosen values
Copy functionality for symbols that takes the user-configured settings from an existing one
Enhanced rule functionality to auto-assign std-annotations to drawing sheets
New button to collapse/expand the white value-related rows within the bottom area pool for std-annotations, notes and stack-notes

Use default drawing sheet/combined state placement settings when importing std-annotations via user profile that were not created yet in drawing/model

Compatibility restored to Creo version 9.0.1.0 and later after PTC changed restrictions in the field of Creo/Toolkit API external data classes
