Enhancements

Added scenarios where a license will be released for network users when ‘Release license when exiting’ is checked in Settings.

• The license will be released when the computer goes to sleep
  • Note: If the user locks the computer, but it does not go to sleep, the license won’t be released.
• The license will be released when the computer shuts down
  • Note: In case of a power failure, the license may not be released due to insufficient time to complete the process.

Performance Improvements

• Increased takeoff performance for the “Count” tool.
  • Note: with the new performance increases, the functionality of the count tool has changed; when selecting the count tool, you can add multiple count points to a plan/take off; however, these are not saved UNTIL you right-click’
