Version 1.2.41
Version 1.2.41 (14 Jul 2026)
New Features
This month's release focuses on expanding your early-stage design capabilities with new data layers, greater control over building forms, and better experience working with topography.
Site Features
- Make more informed masterplanning decisions with the new Wetlands data layer. This feature displays designated wetland areas directly within your site analysis, helping you to respect environmental constraints from the earliest stages of design.
- Streamline site creation and analysis in the United States with our new integration for parcel data. You can now view, select, and import official property boundary information directly into your projects, ensuring accuracy and saving valuable time on data sourcing.
- Unlock greater design flexibility by bringing freeform building masses into the Building Layout Editor. You can now divide individual floor plates into distinct functional zones, such as commercial, amenity, or parking spaces, allowing for the creation of unique and complex mixed-use building designs.
- Ensure geometric accuracy when designing on sloped sites. Building footprints are now always drawn as 2D planar shapes, with their elevation anchored to the first point you select on the terrain, resulting in more predictable and constructible building forms.
- Experience more intuitive and accurate modelling on varied terrains. When working with topography, building footprints and other site elements now retain their original shape while conforming to the ground surface, ensuring that your design intent is preserved.
- We've made significant improvements to our automated parking layout generator for greater efficiency and flexibility.
Residential Building Features
- Address complex planning requirements with a new 'Last Storey Prototype'. This feature allows you to restrict residential units to a specific percentage of the top floor area. The system automatically converts excess units into valuable balcony space, helping you meet urban roof policies without manual adjustments.
Supplier Features
- Maintain a professional and consistent appearance in the supplier catalogue. A default Podium placeholder is now displayed for any company or product that is missing a logo, ensuring a clean and complete look.
Platform and Collaboration
- Enhance collaboration with improved project sharing controls. You can now share projects across your organisation in a 'view-only' mode by default, allowing team members to review designs without the risk of accidental changes. You retain full control to grant editing permissions to specific collaborators as needed.
Bug Fixes
This release also includes numerous bug fixes and stability improvements to enhance your experience across the platform. Key fixes are detailed below.
Site Features
- Resolved a rendering issue to ensure smooth and accurate visualisation of sites when topography is enabled.
- The North arrow in the site view now points in the correct direction, providing accurate orientation for your projects.
- Improved snapping behaviour to ensure all points of a freeform building accurately snap to topography contour lines.
- Corrected an issue where building pads would appear to float above the terrain after setting a custom elevation.
- Addressed an issue where freeform buildings were incorrectly projecting onto the terrain, ensuring they now maintain their intended form.
- Fixed an issue where parking layouts were not being correctly generated in certain areas during automated scenario generation.
- Enhanced the reliability and stability of the scenario generation engine to prevent errors and ensure all planning envelopes are correctly included.
- Corrected a problem that prevented new scenarios from being generated when using the 'generate again' function.
- Resolved an issue where saved scenarios could differ visually from the initial layout generated by the solver.
- Improved the subdivision logic for automated scenario generation to produce more valid and well-proportioned building layouts.
- Fixed a discrepancy where the carparking space count was inconsistent between the main interface and the details panel.
- Fixed an issue where renamed site division layers were not saving correctly, ensuring changes now persist after a browser refresh.
- Improved the rendering of driveways to ensure they display correctly when overlapping with other site elements.
- Ensured that generated building elements now correctly respect the defined building pad boundaries.
- Corrected selection behaviour so that parking and landscape areas on a podium are highlighted at their correct level.
- Fixed a bug where splitting a floor plate would occasionally cause the new area to appear on an incorrect floor.
- Corrected the cut and fill cost calculation for topography metrics to ensure accuracy when using Imperial units.
- Fixed an issue in the building editor that prevented the final digit of a building's height from being edited or deleted.
- Addressed an issue with the SVY21 coordinate system to ensure accurate site positioning.
Residential Building Features
- Refined the unit removal logic for the 'Last Storey Prototype' to ensure it correctly respects lift core boundaries in U-shaped buildings.
- Resolved an error in the floor plate solver that occurred when editing a building's spine on a site with topography enabled.
- Swapping units within the Building Layout Editor now correctly updates all associated metrics and visual representations.
- Unit template names are now correctly displayed within the Building Layout Editor.
- Fixed an issue that incorrectly prevented saving a new template with a unique name.
- Improved the accuracy of the lift solver to ensure the recommended lift count aligns with calculations.
- Changing the project's unit of measurement to Imperial now correctly updates the floor-to-floor height setting.
Industrial Building Features
- Corrected an issue where the industrial area was not being reported in the live metrics panel.
- Ensured that the net lettable area for industrial buildings is now calculated and displayed correctly in all scenarios.
- Fixed an issue where key metrics for data centre buildings were incorrectly displayed as zero in the Scenario Comparison tool.
Structural Features
- Embodied carbon values are now correctly calculated and displayed for individual structural elements in the Bill of Materials.
- Addressed an error in the pile solver to improve the reliability of structural analysis for multi-storey buildings.
Supplier Features
- Improved the formatting of the product variants table for better readability, with balanced column widths and clearer row separation.
- Product type names throughout the supplier catalogue are now displayed in a readable, title-case format.
- The main suppliers menu is now sorted alphabetically and correctly displays the supplier's company name.
- Supplier logos are now displayed with the correct aspect ratio on product cards and profile pages, preventing distortion.
- Normalised the font size on product cards to ensure a consistent and clean appearance.
- Product images on profile cards now resize correctly without stretching when the browser window is adjusted.
- Resolved an issue that prevented the download of import templates from the supplier portal.
- Fixed a bug that made it difficult to review product variant data within the supplier interface.
- Corrected issues preventing access to certain supplier company profiles and loading of the catalogue banner image.
Platform and Collaboration
- Corrected a permissions issue where users with 'view-only' access could generate and save new scenarios.
- Resolved an issue to ensure that project-specific data, such as analysis chats and queries, is correctly isolated to its respective project.
General Improvements
- Improved loading performance for the project overview screen to ensure your projects appear promptly.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the project preview window from closing correctly.
- The 'isolate element' function, accessed via a right-click, now works as expected.
- The elevation unit for uploaded context images now correctly updates to match your project's measurement settings.
