2024.04.01

• NCP & Flat in BricsCAD: commands learned to construct silhouettes of conical faces of solids.

• NCP: The conical ends of the blind drill holes are now recognized. The drilling depth increases by the height of the cone.

• NCP: Conical countersinks in drill holes are now recognized. The drilling depth increases by the depth of the countersinks.

• NCP: Through drills with a countersink from below are now recognized as drilling "from below", not  "through" (and will be shown as invisible).

• Substitutions: added drill parameters for NCP, DDRAW: %countersink%, %countersinkangle%, %countersinkdepth%, %countersinkdiam%.

• NCP: Corrected default drilling layer templates to account for countersinking.

• NCP fixed: False through contours appeared on swivel drillings.

2024.03.04

• New compact offline installer (msi). For these purposes, the procedure for loading the plugin menu from CUIX files has been redone.

2024.03.03

• Substitutions: Added special end indexes (1000 - left, 2000 - top, 3000 - right, 4000 - bottom) for edge substitutions on rectangular parts. Now you can create tables for parts with cut corners and cutouts.

• Substitutions: The names (letter substitution) of the ends (edges) are given according to their actual direction on the layout, and not by number in order.

• SAW: Changed default settings for edge substitutions for OptiCut and Viyar. Special end indexes used.

• AVC Palette: When displaying 2 or more solids, only 4 ends (edge bandings) will be shown with directions like a rectangle.

• Common Options fixed: The reset button did not work with the settings for sending messages.

• The Install, AVC_Updater, AVC_FileCopy programs are back as plugins. However, the fight against antiviruses continues.

• Uninstall programs have been added to the plugins. It completely removes all AVC plugins at once.

• AVC_Updater.exe: The program now registers itself in the Startup folder to launch when Windows boots. Plugins no longer run this program and updates can only be configured in it.

• Install.exe: A section of AVC programs is created in the Windows start menu and there you can find the plug-in removal program and AVC_Updater.

• Install.exe: Added the option to run the AVC_Updater program when Windows boots.

2024.03.02

• The plugins are divided into several separate dll-libraries. Now in the plugin folder there are separate DLL with resources (strings and icons) and with general functions. This made it possible to dramatically reduce the size of the offline installer. In addition, the new libraries do not cause any reaction in any antivirus.

• The source codes of the AVC resource library have been published. Now you can independently translate AVC plugins into your language or even fix icons on buttons: https://github.com/avcprogramming/AVC_Resources

• Chop options dialog fixed: The OK button is missing

2024.03.00

• AutoCAD 2025 attempt to support. Participants in beta testing of the new AutoCAD can try the plugins too.

• Updated versions of .Net Framework 4.8 and .Net 8.0

• Activation system fixed: License activation fails if activated less than a month before its expiration.

• CUIX fixed: Quick properties for solids have been removed from the AVC Pro and AVC Kit customization file. Old properties for the Names plugin prevented the display of quick properties in new localized versions of AutoCAD.

• BricsCAD fixed: The previous version of the plugins did not run under BricsCAD V20 and older.

• DwgTree fixed: Updating the drawing tree did not work in BricsCAD V20 and older.

2024.02.05

The fight against aggressive antiviruses is lost. Removed from the AVC software package:

• Install.exe - The AVC program installer is no longer supplied as part of plugins. However, a shortened version is available for download.

• Updater.exe - plugin update program and the entire automatic update system has been removed.

• CopyFile.exe is a file copying program that helped the update system.

Removed from the plugins themselves:

• Automatic plugin update system. The update settings tab has been removed. Now, to install updates you will have to go to the AVC website, download the archive and unpack it into the ApplicationPlugins folder. 

• Built-in application store. In the All Programs tab of the settings palette, you will still see all AVC plugins and you can activate them as before. But instead of downloading new plugins, the program will only open the page of the official website.

• TextHeightUpdate: Now you can select the texts inside the viewport that need to be updated.

• AvcPalette: Now the material of edge bandings specified in the ALL field applies not only to the 4 ends shown, but also to all other ends of the parts. Thus, you can now easily assign the same edge banding to many parts with different numbers of ends at once.

• DwgTree: Now the tree scrolls to show the last selected (checked) item at the end of the visible part of the long list.

• DwgTree fixed: When editing parameters, block references remained in old instances of dynamic blocks.

• DwgTree fixed: The selected object was reset when the tree expanded a branch of that object.

• DimDet and DimOverall: The calculation of the offset of the dimension line from the part has been fixed, taking into account the dimension style and the DimTad and DimGap variables.

• DimDet and DimOverall fixed: If there is no dimension style in the drawing or template, the dimension is assigned the current style rather than the "empty" style.

• Substitutions fixed: The %block% substitution returned the model and paper space names. Now returns an empty string.

• Substitutions fixed: Substitutions of %layer% and %material% when generating fields now generates the same field for the same layers/materials and does not interfere with merging table rows. 

• AvcUpdate & AvcPalette: Automatic assignment of solid color according to its material did not work with ByLayer and ByBlock materials.

• AvcOptions fixed: AutoAnnotation tab will no longer print status messages to the command line when running any command.
