Product Update: Cubit 6.1.3
Steve Kilsby

Head of Software Development

Jun 28, 2016 12:00:00 PM

Buildsoft has released an important update of Cubit on Tuesday, 28 June 2016. See release notes below:

Cubit 6.1.3 Release

New Feature:
New Shape Colour Modes
There are now two Shape Colour Modes you can use to set the colour of your Shapes for takeoff. You can continue to use Manual Colour to manually set or change a colour as you draw a shape or you can use the new Preset Colour mode to preset a colour by a Trade, or a Heading or an Item.

You can change the Shape Colour Mode from Cubit Options at any time during a Job. By default the new Colour column is hidden, but when you select Preset Colour new Jobs will open with the column displayed. You can enable the Colour column when Manual Colour mode is selected, or when changing to Preset Colour, by using the Column Chooser.

  • Colours can be assigned to Trades, Headings and Items in Templates, so you only need to assign colours once
  • Colours in the Estimate act like an onscreen legend

 

Improvements:

  • Changed the Unit column default width in the Reports to fit 5 characters
  • In Vector plans, fonts are rasterised where they might otherwise be corrupt

Fixes:

  • Fixed a rare issue where some rounding was incorrectly applied to some values
  • Fixed an issue where a formula was displayed in some Reports instead of the result of the formula
  • Fixed New page per trade parameter for generated Reports
  • Fixed a rare issue where updating the Viewport Legend sometimes displayed an error message
  • Fixed an issue where a warning about Autodesk was displayed for some loaded Plans
  • Fixed an issue where Jobs with Accounting Codes that do not exist in the Job Manager could not be imported
  • Fixed an issue where JBK files loaded into Cubit had Apply Job Adjustment unchecked by default
  • Fixed an issue where changing Apply Job Adjustment for a Trade/ Heading would display more than one dialogue box
  • Fixed a connection issue to Xero where the integration was getting frozen when authorising
  • Fixed a very rare issue where some Jobs were not importing if they contained uncommon characters
