Update notification available
As of version 2025.b, applications now display a warning message in their initial window when a new update is available. This message provides information about the "installed version" and the "available version", together with a direct link to the Store page of the BIMserver.center web platform.
Clicking on the “Upgrade to the latest version” button automatically starts the download and installation process of the application. This feature ensures that the most current version of the program is always being used, thus benefiting from the latest improvements.
This method replaces the automatic notification and update process of a new version in the BIMserver.center programs available in previous versions.

Link to the BIMserver.center Store
In the configuration panel for each application, a direct link to its page in the BIMserver.center web store has been included.
By clicking on the “Go to BIMserver.center Store” button, users are redirected directly to the corresponding page in the Store, where they can learn more about the application, view its features, read reviews from other users and see examples of real contributions.
This feature provides easy access to additional resources and support, enhancing the user experience by providing quick and easy access to all relevant information about the applications.

Information about the license model
An information message has been incorporated into the installation button of the applications so that, before proceeding with the installation, users can identify which applications are free to use (free of charge) and which require licensing permissions (including paid modules).
This enhancement improves the user experience by providing clarity and transparency on the options available to the user based on their license model.

Installing background apps
In the new 2025.b version of CYPE Menu, the background installation feature has been added. Users can now continue working on other tasks while applications are automatically installed in the background.
During the background installation process, the “Installing program” message is displayed next to the applications button in the main CYPE Menu window. Once completed, the message disappears and the application can be run.
This feature is designed to make applications easier to use and manage, improving productivity and the overall experience by minimising waiting time and interruptions during the installation of new applications or upgrades.

Option for highlighting or not highlighting objects when selecting using a rectangle
In version 2025.b, the option for highlighting or not highlighting objects when selecting using a rectangle has been implemented.
This option shall be activated by default. If the selection using a rectangle does not work smoothly when highlighting objects, it can be deactivated by the user.

Selecting by bar or by rectangle when displaying the forces of a selection of bars
As of version 2025.b, when displaying the forces of a selection of bars, the selection by rectangle of a set of bars is permitted as well as by bar.

Prestressing stress for bars with only tensile behaviour
As of version 2025.b, a prestressing stress can be entered in CYPE 3D for bars only in tension.
This stress can be entered in the bar description panel.

Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler plastic hinge
As of version 2025.b, it is now possible to enter "Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler" type plastic hinges in CYPE 3D. This hinge allows users to model a behaviour of strength and stiffness reduction after yielding by means of a Backbone type curve.
The "Plastic hinges" option in the "Bar" menu defines the plastic hinges' relative position and their properties, as well as the degrees of freedom of rotation on which they act. Up to version 2025.b, "Elastic-linear Hardening" plastic hinges could be defined. From now on, the new "Modified Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler" type can also be selected.
The data required to define the behaviour of a plastic hinge for a given degree of freedom of rotation are shown in the following image.
In the entry panel for the "Ibarra-Medina-Krawinkler" plastic hinge, there is an aid for visualising the behaviour curve and a legend of the symbols used in the curve.
In the stress display, plastic hinges that have reached the yielding point in the selected combination will be highlighted with an increase in size and a colour change.
