Release notes

The plugin checks for updates on its own and installs them when you close AutoCAD — see Updates. The highlights below cover what's new in the current line.

Latest

• You always know whether a 3LD review verdict reached us. Submitting a verdict now answers plainly: LANDED, naming the card and the receipt we recorded it under, or NOT SUBMITTED, naming the card and why it failed. Both appear on the review palette and on the AutoCAD command line, so the answer is there even if the palette is hidden behind another window.
• A verdict that fails to send is saved, not lost. If a submission fails before your review is packaged up, your verdict, check answers, and notes are written to this machine instead of vanishing with the drawing. The card is flagged Saved review found, reopening it puts your answers back, and the next time you start a review the plugin tells you how many verdicts still have not reached us. If nothing could be saved, it says so in as many words — it will never tell you work is safe when it is not.
• Captured corrections say where they actually are. After you capture a correction, the panel states that it is saved on your machine only and reaches us when you record a Needs-correction verdict on that card — no more assuming someone has already collected it.
• Export your permit set to PDF. The new DT_PDF command publishes your sheets to a single multi-page PDF, with each sheet at its own scale and page setup — never scaled to fit, so site plans stay AHJ-ready.
• 3LD import is on by default. DT_3LD_IMPORT and the 3LD sheet tools are now available without an admin turning them on; the Enable 3LD beta checkbox in MANAGE_TEMPLATE becomes a way to hide them if you need to.
• Aurora imports get the right layer colors. LOAD_AURORA_DXF now sets the fire-pathways layer to red after import, matching the drawing standard so fire-access geometry renders correctly.
• Calculation tables self-heal. LOAD_DT repairs the power-system calc-table formulas in place and re-evaluates fields right after stamping, so labels and callouts show correct kilowatt values immediately.
• Search your project photos. The Photos palette now has a search box and subtype chips, scoped to the current drawing's project.
