Version 2026.c expands the international scope of CYPE programs with the implementation of new codes:
The "Automatic distribution" tool has been optimised, allowing for more efficient positioning of normal and emergency lighting.
The distribution of design points in CYPELUX has been improved, offering more accurate results and ensuring compliance with the EN 12464-1 standard.
CYPELUX incorporates a tool that allows users to modify the scale of the text in tags, references, and analysis point results.
As of version 2026.b, project files are automatically associated with the corresponding CYPE app in the Windows environment. This means that you simply double-click on the file to open it directly in the appropriate program, without having to select it manually. This improvement streamlines the workflow and provides a smoother and more efficient user experience.
CYPELUX incorporates the automatic distribution of emergency lighting throughout the building, speeding up the definition of evacuation plans.
As of version 2026.a, CYPELUX incorporates the "Automatic distribution" tool in the "Lighting" group of the toolbar. This new feature can automatically generate a proposal for the lighting distribution for all areas in the building.
As of version 2025.d, when clicking the "Share" option of the apps (before starting the generation of the contribution files), a check is made to ensure that the user is part of the BIMserver.center project team. If the user does not have the appropriate permissions, a warning message is displayed. This prevents the generation of unnecessary files when the user does not have editing rights.
As of version 2025.d, the "Project selection" window in the apps connected to BIMserver.center incorporates a new notification system to inform users about the latest new features on the platform.
This space displays relevant messages about new features, enhancements and recommendations related to BIMserver.center. In addition, direct links to documents, tutorials and additional resources will be included to facilitate the adoption of these new features.
As of version 2025.d, the interaction during the insertion of elements in the app's workspace has been improved. For those elements that the app allows to be rotated once inserted (Rotate element tool), it is now possible to rotate them in 90-degree intervals on the Z-axis by simply pressing the space bar on the keyboard before inserting them.
This feature allows for greater accuracy and speed when positioning components within the model, avoiding the need for subsequent adjustments.
In version 2025.d, CYPELUX has improved the display of the analysis progress, providing more detailed information on the status of the analysis in progress. In addition, the possibility of cancelling the analysis at any time has been added, without having to wait for the analysis to be fully completed.
As of version 2025.d, CYPELUX can automatically read the latitude and longitude data of the project to perform more accurate daylight calculations. This information is extracted from the geo-referenced IFC models containing the project contributions, guaranteeing a lighting analysis adjusted to the building's actual location.
To define the site, the free Open BIM Site program can be used to establish the exact geographical location of the project.
