Release notes 1.6.0
Enhanced Perpendicular Measurement Control
We’re pleased to introduce a significant improvement to the Perpendicular Measurement tool within the 3D Viewer. Taking precise perpendicular measurements is now more intuitive and efficient than ever. You can now select the perpendicular direction freely after snapping to a line. Instead of the direction becoming fixed as soon as you click, you’re able to adjust it by selecting surface afterwards.

2D viewer tool buttons have shadows for better clarity on light background
We’ve boosted the clarity and usability of measurement tools by introducing subtle shadows to all 2D viewer tool buttons. Previously, the buttons could blend into white backgrounds, making them harder to distinguish. With this update, the buttons now stand out clearly—ensuring better user experience every time.

Seamless naming for newly created M365 documents
We’ve streamlined the workflow for creating new Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files through our MS365 integration.
Previously, when users renamed a newly created document directly inside Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, the Sync entity name did not update automatically, leaving the default “New Document.docx” in place. This required an unnecessary manual rename step.
This improvement eliminates redundant steps and ensures that Sync always reflects the correct document name—right from the start.
