When opening a new job, the program will assign a typology by default for each one of the architectural elements.
Typologies simplify the introduction of elements and their later modification and also allow the elements to be classified in other programs in the Open BIM workflow.
The functionality of the "Search" button in the "Edit" group in the "Architecture" tab allows searching not only by the reference to the element but also by its associated typology.
The program facilitates the introduction of architectural elements and furniture in 3D views, automatically detecting to which level they belong.
This new function can be deactivated, in which case the program will allow the user to manually choose the level where they wish to enter the element.
When exporting the CYPE Architecture architectural model in a BIMserver.center project, the program can automatically generate templates in DWG format. These templates will facilitate modelling in other Open BIM workflow programs that are connected to that project, especially for those working in a 2D environment.
The templates are generated from each of the plan views available in the "Views" panel, taking the "Distance to the top plane" of each of them as a reference.
Once the CYPE Architecture architectural model has been exported to the chosen project on the BIMserver.center platform, the templates can be loaded in other Open BIM workflow programs connected to that project, and their visibility can be configured from the "DXF-DWG Template" button in each program.
In the applications listed below, apart from the symbols included to represent elements that are introduced in their corresponding installations, symbols in DXF or DWG format can be imported:
As of version 2022.e, applications that are connected to BIMserver.center communicate with the platform more directly. As a result, it is no longer necessary to specify the user account(s) and projects to be synchronised in the BIMserver.center Sync tool before using the applications. When a user signs in from a desktop application, it automatically establishes the connection to the project.
Previously, some applications required the user to connect to BIMserver.center and select a project in order to start a job. Now, this is no longer necessary and the link will only need to be established when updating the project or sharing a contribution.
As of version 2022.e, the applications connected to BIMserver.center have an information bar displaying the link status to the project on the platform. This bar can be found at the top right of the application window and is divided into the following sections:
Version 2022.h of CYPE software is a closing version of version 2022.
In addition to the new features and improvements that are explicitly outlined in each version of CYPE software, process optimisation involving internal improvements to our programs is normally included. All programs are systematically checked during each revision, and improvements are made to improve their performance. As a result, we advise our users to always update their version to the latest revision (in this case, v.2022), regardless of whether or not new features in version 2022.h are explicitly mentioned for the program they are using, the country for which they are using CYPE software or the language in which it is installed.
The "Rotation" option has been included for curved ramps and spiral stairs.
With this option, the rotation direction of these elements can be changed (to the left or to the right) during both introduction and editing.
Another category has been added to the railings: “Horizontal”.
Furthermore, the design of railings and stair railings has been unified. In both features, there are now three categories: "Horizontal", "Vertical" and "Handrail".
The options for exporting 3D views to 2D DXF and DWG formats have been implemented. The dialogue box containing these new options can be accessed from the "Print the current view" button, in the top bar of the 3D views.
If a scene has defined cutting planes or volumes, filling polygons can be generated on the elements that are cut by these planes or volumes.
This can be carried out by activating the "Generate polygons with infill in the cuts by planes" option.
As of version 2022.g, applications that can be linked to a project on the BIMserver.center platform allow the user account to be changed during the project selection process. To do this, a "Disconnect" button has been added below the user's name and image in the "Project selection" panel. When disconnecting the active account, the credentials of the account (email and password) that the user wishes to work with can be entered.
