Caution

This is a Hotfix to the withdrawn versions of 3.97 (3.97.00.13 and 3.97.00.14) that fixes bugs discovered after the original release (3.97.00.13) and the original Hotfix (3.97.00.14). Version 3.97.02.02 is the only valid release of 3.97, all others are revoked and not to be distributed or used. If you are upgrading from 3.97.00.13 or 3.97.00.14, you can see what we fixed at the bottom of this article.

On-Screen Takeoff

Set a Linear takeoff object to be a 3-point curve
Added numerous Count Object Shapes so takeoff matches plans better
Mark Pages as "Takeoff Complete" so the estimator knows which Pages require attention

Added an expander to the Count and Attachment Conditions Properties Shape drop-down lists (no more scrolling necessary)

In some bids, using Duplicate and Reassign takeoff caused a Quick Bid Item's quantity to increase exponentially
Intelligent curve mode sometimes locked to "on"
Unable to duplicate bids when bids list is grouped by job status and bid numbers sorted from greatest to least (affects interactive bids only)

Bug 3070 - Typical Groups cause performance degradation as more markers are placed in a project.
Sometimes, after duplicating a Condition, if the name is still in edit mode and you draw takeoff, the cursor will not follow your movements. Workaround: save changes to Condition name before drawing takeoff.
Rotating a linear takeoff object that is set to "3-point curve" causes it to recalculate with slightly different results. This will be fixed in an upcoming version of OST 3.98.
Area Backouts within a Zone are shown as "unassigned" negative values on the Takeoff Tab (Case # 02171995) ON-4441

No Changes

You may be wondering what we fixed in the original releases of 3.97:

Curved segment (with default set as Curved Segment) turns into straight segment when navigating to a different page then back to the page with segment
Linear takeoff objects are set as "curved segment" after upgrade from 3.96 or older
Importing a bid with linear takeoff from 3.96 to 3.97.00 shows linear takeoff set to curve
After drawing a curved linear takeoff, upgrading OST then changing curved takeoff to 3-point curved segment displays as straight segment
Typical Groups are bringing in takeoff objects from other Typical Groups
When using SQL Databases, the filters are not showing in the Master Items screen
Area Backouts within a Zone are shown as "unassigned" negative values on the Takeoff Tab (Case # 02171995) ON-4441
