Features

Changes

  • Takeoff Boost now supports multi-page PDFs.
  • Allow user to stop Boost (up to the point that it begins saving Results for a Page).
  • AI Improvements - Takeoff Boost generates straighter linear takeoff and fewer vertices on area takeoff (requires fewer adjustments).
  • Updates to several Takeoff Boost dialog boxes to make them clearer and more user-friendly.
  • When Takeoff Boost returns Results, any Boost Layers that were hidden (turned off) but are used for the current results will be shown (turned back on).
  • The prompt that shows when you open the Image Tab on a page that is backed by a PDF to "Convert to TIFF" no longer displays.

Fixes

  • ON-5320 - Attempting to close a database while Boost is processing does not update condition results. 
  • ON-5323 - The Boost toolbar/button is now visible upon upgrading or fresh installations. You can hide this toolbar/button if you don't use Takeoff Boost.

Known Issues

  • Flipping (vertically or horizontally) some Linear and Area takeoff objects causes them to recalculate with fractionally different Results.
  • The Image Folder button on the Cover Sheet sometimes disappears when user hovers over the field, making it difficult or impossible to click on the button. Bug# ON-4556
