What’s New in Version 5.1.120
New Features and Improvements
· We released our plan overlay feature to help users easily review revised drawings and immediately identify the differences!
· Our new reporting view is now toggled on by default.
· We’ve introduced new user permissions to help companies better manage their teams.
· A “Viewer” role that restricts the recipient’s access to any cost data.
· An “Estimator” role that limits access to company-wide settings.
· And of course an “Account Owner” role will have full access and be able to edit permissions.
· We added another keyboard shortcut! CTRL + S (or CMD + S for Mac) to end a takeoff.
· In our new reports, we’ve enabled a reset button for saved snapshots.
· In addition, we’ve made a vast amount of styling and UI enhancements:
· We restructured and reordered the takeoff toolbar on the right side of your screen to display tools relevant to the mode you’re working in.
· We’ve also restyled the ‘Exit Search’ button when viewing search results.
· We’ve changed the color of events from blue to grey, on the calendar, so they’re easier to distinguish from projects.
· We’ve removed the Plans tab from the “Viewer” user role and “Share” recipients’ view.
· Content search results will now show the number of overall matches as well as the matches per plan page.
· Plan search results will also now show the ‘compass symbol’ on plan pages that have completed measurements.
· Setting a bid time using the up and down arrows will now adjust by increments of 15 minutes. However, users can still type a specific time if they wish.
· We’ve renamed the ‘Estimating’ tab to ‘Excel Tools’
· We’ve also restyled the ‘Delete’ buttons and made them red.
· We created persistent modals to prevent users from losing their work when clicking outside of them.
· We now allow users to navigate back and forth, between plans, while in markup mode.
· Report data can now be exported in 3 different formats:
· A raw data CSV export.
· Excel export that exports the report as it is displayed on the screen (grouped, sorted, filtered).
· Project Cost Calculator CSV export for the Takeoff Quantity and Item Cost by Type reports only.
· We introduced new material databases to our items and assemblies, including an HVAC and Electrical catalog.
