Features

Full support for Windows 11 Pro and Enterprise
Certification for use with Microsoft SQL 2019

Changes

Updated the underlying technology on which On-Screen Takeoff is built to support future versions of Windows and the latest operating system updates
Removed support for CPC (Cartesian) files - if you use this file type, you must convert these files to TIF or PDF using a 3rd party utility
When OST is in 'logging mode', log files are no longer overwritten/cleared when program restarts. Also, if users have Quick Bid 4.99.05.14 (or newer) installed, additional information from Quick Bid is available in the log file - see Related Articles.
Removed "BMP" from the list of files that can be imported/added to a project. OST can still display BMPs, but you cannot add new BMP files to any project. (Tip: Just change the extension from "BMP" to "TIF" and you can load them.
