#MERGE #DELTA #olifolder ITCItems.oli #allwindow "C:\ProgramData\ITC\ITCItems2\Cache\\AP\AP_562.3ds" 0,849831000000238
1. It doesn’t use the correct category, perhaps the syntax has changed because of the new categories
2. I can’t seem to get the scale factor right, I’m writing to the registry key “Software\\CadLine\\ARCHline.XP2012\\Interface\\ General3DImporter_Scale”, but no change there seems to help in any way… it seems it’s always by a factor of 1000 too small …
Solutions:
1. Category name is the .OLI filename without the extension.
2. Scale factor is taking into consideration from
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CadLine\ARCHline.XP2012\Interface]
"General3DImporter_Scale"="1.000000"
- Development of lamp handling: when you add a light source to an object, the dialog for saving the object into the Lamps category comes up automatically.

DLGOFFSET+6715 "Internet browser"

- Create new material: some settings are stored for creating the next new material
- Bug fix (Room maker): crash with predefined room profiles.

We removed this option. You can use this command from the Design Center when you drag and drop a stair.
- Room maker bug fix: one wall with more backgrounds - background area detection is correct now.
- Room maker bug fix: tile representation with thickness must be switched on when you use the Room maker function. Consequence:
* Tile with thickness option (the same option what you can find in the 3D build dialog) is switched on automatically when you use the Room maker function.
* When you exit from Room maker, the state of Tile with thickness option will set back to the original state (the state before entering into Room maker).
