Studio: sketching in 3D - Draw lines, rectangles, circles and arcs (2-point or 3-point) straight on any face, in either of two ways: - SketchUp's way: axis inference in red, green and blue, and lengths typed at any time. - CAD's way: Sketch on face turns the face into a work plane for the command line. Look at plane and Finish sketch complete it. - A closed shape gets the push/pull arrow at once. - Lines across a face split it into regions you push or pull separately. A loop drawn inside a face is a hole. - Offset, Trim, Extend and Fillet work on faces, and sketch lines have grips in 3D. - Also new: a tape measure with guides, Follow Me, and optional SketchUp one-letter shortcuts. - A face's plane reads as seen from outside, and typed values never trigger other shortcuts. Modelling in 3D - Move and Copy snap to corners, edges and faces. You can also drag a selected element by its body. - An element standing on its level keeps it when moved. It goes up or down only along blue, or with a typed dz. - Walls, floors, columns, beams and the other placing tools work in the 3D view. Doors and windows go where you click a wall's face. - Grips snap like Move, and catalog items can be dropped on the 3D view. - M, CO, RO and MI work in 3D even with nothing selected. Visibility / Graphics - Model categories: subcategories (core, finishes, insulation, membranes, reveals) and new categories (rebar, coverings, formwork, scaffolds, MEP, steel connections, transport, shading). - Other categories: annotation categories, and imported DXFs by file and by layer. - View filters: rule-based, with colour, halftone, line pattern, pen and transparency. - Links: set "By host view" or "Custom". A linked IFC's layered walls, slabs and roofs can hide their finishes, insulation or core; linked rebar shows under the Rebar category. - Level of development per view: LOD 100 massing, 200 layers, 300 details, 350 connections, 400 rebar. It is set by the view style or on the view, no longer by the scale. At LOD 100, steel draws as one line and doors and windows as their opening and swing. - Output: sheets, PDF, DXF and 3D show exactly what the view shows.

Planning (4D) — new Planning tab - Work schedule and Gantt: - tasks, milestones and links (FS, SS, FF, SF with lags); - a calendar with Romania's public holidays; - the critical path worked out live; - edit by dragging bars, ends and links. - Model elements in tasks: - by rules (classes, types, storeys, materials, phases), so new elements join on their own; - drag the selection onto a task; - layered elements can be built in parts (core, then finishes). - Generate schedule… from the model: - templates for concrete frame, masonry, steel hall and timber frame; - durations from quantities and your own norms (imported from CSV/XLSX). - 4D simulation: - the model on any day of the schedule, with a player, colours for work under way and demolitions, and formwork and scaffolds only while they stand; - State at date on plans, sections and sheets; - a stages sheet, the Gantt on sheets, and video export. - Progress: a status date, % complete, actual dates, and elements marked done or started on site (also by session guests); one baseline, with variance. - Exchange: IFC processes, MS Project XML and XLSX, both ways. Cost (5D) — the Quantities tab is now Cost - Estimate from the model: your own price lists (CSV/XLSX), articles on types or rules by material, and Cost → Map articles…. - Romanian forms F3, F2 and C6–C9; workbook and PDF. - Cost over time: the S-curve (planned, baseline, done), monthly bars and table, the curve on sheets, and versions compared by cost. - IFC: cost schedules both ways. Documents - Written documents from templates, filled from the project, exported as DOCX, ODT and PDF. Romanian templates: memoriu tehnic, caiet de sarcini, borderou. - Visual editor: fields shown with their values, tables, pictures of views, repeats, conditions. - Templates and style: templates kept in the project or on your computer, and a company style (fonts, heading colour, logo). - Manage → Project information…, which title blocks read too.
