The new release includes several bug fixes, faster display and compatibility with both Rhino5 and Rhino6

We released yesterday a major update for our plugin Rhino Beam Tools. Many bugs were fixed and improvement made, such as:
- Values are not stored anymore in user texts, which is a lot safer. They still are duplicated in user texts though, so you will be able to read them easily.
- When clicking on a node annotation, the node will be selected instead
- Geometry import now accept every kind of curves, including Polylines and polycurves.
- Geometry import now take in account the intersections, between themselves and existing Nodes/Beams. That was a great issue before, because when importing curves the intersection was checked afterward between the beams, causing the intersection point to be wrong.
- The sets can be Edited/Renamed
- A bug where annotations settings where reinitialized when opening a document has been fixed
- We added the command “RBT_Duplicate” to duplicate a Node safely (not duplicating its label)
- Two identical beams (same nodes) will now be detected and one of them automatically removed. A beam with a missing node will become red instead of orange.
- License activation is only needed now for Export commands (Only export to Steel at the moment). Which means you can try the interface as much as necessary without even activating a license.
WARNING: Beams and nodes created with a previous release won’t be recognized anymore, because we changed the way data is stored
Our free Attribute Analysis plugin graduated today from its Beta. This new release includes a major speed improvement for people who don’t use RhinoPiping.
The scripted command (“-AA_Analysis”) now let you enable or disable the analysis of RhinoPiping’s attributes (Plugin Additional Attributes).
This new release has a brand new license management. We are now using the same license system as Rhino3D itself, more stable and suitable than previously. RhinoPiping became also compatible with the Zoo 6, which gives you the possibility to have floating licenses.
A short demo of our new configuration tool for RhinoPiping. The beta should be released in september 2016.
The plugin AA_Analysis was updated yesterday with a new feature for RhinoPiping users: It is now able to calculate the global length for each DN of each pipe class used in the model!
The result will be displayed directly in the command window.

We are glad to offer you from today a new free plugin: AA_Analysis
This tool will help you to get a fast overview of an attribute values in your model, using a color code and a chart key.
You will also be able to use this tool to select objects with a specific attribute value.
For example, if you are using an attribute with the building state of your objects, you will be able to see easily your global manufacturing advancement.
