Artlantis 4.1.8 update is now available!

The Artlantis 4.1.8 update version fixes a number of bugs and also includes an enhancement.

Enhancement:
Artlantis 4.1.8 introduces two new parameters for the DXF-DWG import: the distance between Knots, and the deviation angle between faces. They come in addition to the 2D conversion parameters and control the triangulation of the 3D geometry. As a result, Artlantis can correctly interpret and triangulate moldings or any curved body built in the CAD modeler.

Bug fixes:
Mac and Windows:
  • ArchiCAD .gsm objects: the colors were not distinguished when saving by layers or on a unique layer.
  • Reopening a file wasn't possible; now the Revert command allows it.
  • The program would freeze when selecting an object.
  • Artlantis crashed when using "Delete the material ID unused"
  • When exporting a file from SketchUp 8 to Artlantis, some viewpoints were ignored.
  • Export from ArchiCAD 16 to 4.1: the geometry was offset from the origin.
  • DWF and OBJ export: the geometry wasn't exported if the current view was a panorama, a VR object or an animation.
  • OBJ import fixes: missing textures.
  • DWG-DXF fixes: Tessalation, distorted geometry and missing geometry
Mac only:

The Artlantis color picker didn't match the material in the preview.

Windows only:
  • In the Objects Inspector, checking/unchecking a layer in the lower part of a long list would result in the display jumping back to the top of the list.
  • Scene Information, Translate Origin command: displayed an incorrect icon.
  • Issue when Activating/Deactivating layers from the perspective view inspector.
  • iVisit 3D builder didn't work if XQuartz was missing.
