Notes about Installation

• Before installing TruPlan 2018.1 Update, make sure that the latest Inventor 2018 update has been installed.
  

What's New

• Manufacturing data (laser projection): You can now create targets, projectors, extra geometry, 3D text, and laser parameters, and export them with laser projection data.
• Batch add strategies/analyses: You can now select a root, layup, or sequence node in the TruPlan browser to add multiple strategies or analyses to a project.
• Guide curve offset: This propagation mode is now supported; requires a projected curve as the seed curve.
• Preview tessellated surface: You can preview surface tessellation results before saving.
• Show workpiece: This command has been implemented in the layup context menu.
• Show boundaries: This command has been implemented in the ply context menu.
• Find in window: This has been implemented in the context menu for several browser nodes. It finds the corresponding object in the application window and zooms in automatically.
• Browser tree: Expand/collapse status is now persistent when closing and re-opening files.
• Several bug fixes.

   

Known Limitations

• Document Settings has not been fully implemented.
• Tessellating a surface that has holes might cause issues.
• Datasets modified with this update may not work in older versions.
• Cannot select an object in a dialog if that object was selected prior to starting the dialog. The workaround , while the dialog is up, is to select a different object first and then select the intended object.
