Release Notes v0.6.12 (Drawing Pricing, Auto-Generated Lines)

Drawing

  • Drawing now shows the material price and supports automatic pricing by slabs from Step 5 – Layout.

  • Step 5 (Layout) displays costs in the top-right corner. This uses the same Cost Margin Calculator as the rest of the system and respects your configuration in Settings > Quotes > Cost Margin Pricing.

  • You can define whether Drawing should use:

    • Standard Price Tier pricing

    • Margin-based pricing

    • Margin-based pricing by slab or area
      Configure this in Drawing Settings > General > Layout Calculator Quote Pricing.

  • Added an option to automatically generate lines from the Drawing.

    • A typical use case is a fabrication service that should always be generated together with a material line and use the same quantity.

  • Configure generated lines in Drawing Settings > Lines. The setup is similar to Package Templates, with the addition of a new option called Included When:

    • Always — the line is always generated.

    • Material Line Is Generated — the line is generated whenever a material line exists in the drawing (which is typically always).

      • In most cases, you will also want to enable Use Material Line as Parent so the generated line automatically inherits the material quantity.

    • Edge Line Is Generated — same behavior as above, but based on generated edge lines.

  • Generated lines can be created for each material line or for each edge line, depending on your configuration.
