CHANGED: Improvement of back-up of Quadri model
NEW: DWG import - possibility to convert solids and surfaces to NURB surface.
NEW: Ground surface. Feature to copy. Possibility to select features that have surface geometry and copy to new features with triangulated surface geometry.
NEW: Ground surface. When grid is selected as result geometry, it is now possible to select a boundary to limit the grid surface.
NEW: Sub surface. It is possible to modify existing features with surface geometry. If you for example have closed polylines in a dwg representing sub surface area. Import them and select to create surface of closed polylines and convert them to BaseSurface (UndersideAvJordlag). Select a Sub surface as Indata and then features to modify, select the imported Base surfaces. They will now get geometry from the selected Sub surface indata.
Improvements:
Landscaping - Improved dialog:
3D Object Along an Alignemnt Objects in the drawing can be updated from an updated road or rail model by using NCO.
The functionality in Novapoint Tunnel is the same as for Novapoint 18.20/18.30. The only difference is that the functionality now is connected to tasks.
You open the tunnel design dialog from Novapoint 19 Basis, while the drawing functionality is opened from AutoCAD.
Only functionality for tunnel design is included in this release. The functionality for geology- and rock support registration will be released on the next release, planned for the autumn 2014.
You open the tunnel modelling tool by clicking on the Tunnel-button on the Modelling band.
In this tool you can choose between two templates; one template for importing an existing tunnel geometry file and one template for creating new tunnel geometry. In addition you can connect the tunnel model to the actual road or railroad task with this tool.
When the tunnel design task is created, then you can double-click on the task, alternatively right-click and choose Open, to open the tunnel design dialog. The functionality in this dialog works the same way as in Novapoint 18.
The functionality for triangulation of scanner data is run from two buttons on the new Construction band. One button for importing old triangulation data sets end one button for triangulation of point cloud files.
When using the tool Import Triangle Models, you first choose the tunnel geometry file you used for the triangulation job. The directory where you placed the triangulation result data (d3d-file), the point cloud file and the script file used for importing the point cloud file must not be moved relatively to the original location of the tunnel geometry file. The script file should be placed on the same directory as the point cloud file.
When the tool is run, triangulation tasks for each scanner data set in the original geometry file are automatically created and placed below the associated tunnel design task in the task tree.
In the Scanner Data tool you first choose a point cloud file by clicking the button Select files. Below this button you find the old functionality for choosing point cloud files and defining script files. In addition you can adjust the values for vertical offset from the reference line for the center of the triangulation cylinder and the maximum triangle edge length the same way as in Novapoint 18.
The triangulation tasks you find in the tunnel design dialog in the element tree. This is the same way as you are familiar with from Novapoint 18. You must open this dialog from the tunnel design task on which the triangulation tasks are associated. Inside the tunnel design dialog, it is now just possible to adjust the viewing settings for the triangulation. The triangulation is done by running the triangulation tasks.
The drawing functionality is still in AutoCAD. You start AutoCAD from the lower right corner of Novapoint 19. You need a Tunnel license for Novapoint 19 to run this functionality.
The drawing functionality is similar to what you are accustomed with from Novapoint 18. The only difference is that you have to choose the correct tunnel design task before you start your work.
The 3D-drawings you produce in AutoCAD can be imported back into Novapoint 19 Basis with the Import Files tool on the Insert band.
FIXED: ICreating WS reports to Excel on some Win8 PCs resulted in empty reports.
NEW: Update WS model version due to manhole ref. point z-value as manhole inner bottom
FIXED: Missing scroll bar in build-dialog
