NaN result of Tube Length calculation happens in specific case when turn off Auto complete. NaN result of Tube length calculation when select specific arcs. Incorrect ACT3D auto completed Tube Length. Tube length measurement results are different for the same item when measuring direction is changed and file is ACT3D. Tube Length measurement isn't working between arcs which are located on the same plane. Tube Length is measured in different way for the same part of model in STEP and ACT3D. Un-select parts after context-menu actions. Incorrect color of Password field in Centro settings during testing server connection in modern theme. Cross button isn't highlighted when pressed. Progress indicator is missing while missing parts are loaded. Busy Indicator does not enable Cancel when launched from a modal window. ESC should only cancel one level. The properties button does not behave the same as the right-mouse-button > Properties command on multiple selections.

Drop down menu is displayed incorrectly for some toolbar items when open it with keyboard for the first time. Make sliders behavior consistent. Zoom window on a thin sliver of select region causes view to be stuck. Print region of four view ports displays cross-layers instead of selected region of defined view. Undo Undo color in view ports is inconsistent. User Views Expanding a User View should not activate it. User Views and markups trees are sorted by Created/Last modified fields in unusual way. Volume Calculation Volume markup is placed incorrectly after second time. When calculating volume, markup shows up behind part.

7 1. Wall thickness selection of parts shows remnants of previous selections. Impossible to analyze wall thickness second time after part was selected at the first time. Weight Calculator Selected material combo box isn't updated after updating materials list. SpinFire Ultimate version is displayed instead of material in selected material field when shared settings enabled.
