Vectorworks InteriorCAD 2023 F3.1 for PC Windows

Description

Vectorworks InteriorCAD 2023 F3.1 was a bug-fix release focusing on issues with the Cabinet 3D object, its integrated parts, and NC-macro routings. Key fixes include resolving problems with file compatibility, improper display of custom parts and front parts with integrated hinges or plates, incorrect output of integrated fittings in lists, and the ignoring of “Drill through” and “Reverse direction” options for integrated drillings.

Key Details of the F3.1 Update

• Fittings and Machining: Addressed a bug where fittings would generate error messages when used with length/width parameters.
• Coding/Export: Added UTF-8-BOM coding (with byte order mark) for text files, which helps with compatibility, e.g., in Microsoft conventions.
• Angular Cabinets: Fixed an issue where using scribes on angular cabinets could sometimes reset their shape to rectangular.
• Grid Drilling: Ensured that the length of grid drilling in angular cabinets correctly took the cabinet’s shape into account.
• Rabbets/Dados: Fixed an issue where no inset was needed for rabbets/dados on mitered parts in angular cabinets.
