What's New in Envisioneer

• COMPONENTS
  Components are a new feature in Envisioneer V17 for building wall systems. Each component specifies how it is rendered, quantified, and displayed in the worksheet. They can be set at different heights, ensuring accurate quantities and correct display. For example, an exterior wall with half stone and half siding can be easily achieved using components.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
• WALL SYSTEMS
  Walls have been completely re-imagined, allowing for precise depiction of construction methods and materials. The new wall system element in V17 enables multiple finishes on either side of the wall. Each wall comprises a core and limitless layers of materials, including sheathing, insulation, and finishes.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
• TRIM PACKAGES
  In conjunction with the new wall system, wall trim boards can now be applied at both the project level and on a per-wall basis. Choose a trim package to apply to all walls in a project or select specific trim for individual walls. You can easily switch out the entire trim package for the project.
  Trim boards are defined within trim packages, allowing for compound trims and unlimited custom trims. Trim boards can be easily applied to sloped walls, gable frieze boards, and framed openings. Additionally, there are options for how trim boards behave on walls with multiple finishes giving you expanded control in Envisioneer V17.

• CORNER ARRANGEMENTS
  Where walls intersect, you now have enhanced control over how they interact. Use the Modify Intersection and Flip Wall commands to prioritize and customize the connection between walls giving you ultimate control.

• 2D PLAN DISPLAY - MODEL & WORKSHEET
  Walls in V17 are now rendered using per-component settings, enabling individual hatch patterns, colors, and line weights for each wall product. Define how each component should look in a section, plan view, and elevation views. This gives you complete control over your working drawings and a more professional appearance to your drawing sets!
  Envisioneer V17 also offers additional settings for the display of walls in Worksheet views including:
       - Wall – 2D Window Openings
       - Wall – 2D Door Openings
  Everything you need for a professional set of drawings.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
• PATTERNED MODE - MODEL & WORKSHEET
  All hatch patterns now support both a hatch pattern and a solid fill background color, enhancing the appearance of elevation views. This feature allows you to show the hatch pattern with a defining color behind it, elevating the overall look of your drawings.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
• SECTION VIEWS - MODEL & WORKSHEET
  Wall sections have received a significant upgrade with solid modeling-based sections. You can now tailor the display of each component, from the core to the finish, to meet your preferences and standards.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
• PLAN VIEWS - MODEL & WORKSHEET
  The cut height for a plan view is now configurable from the Locations dialog. Whether a 5-foot cutting plane better displays the features of the floor plan or a 2-foot cutting plane reveals more detail, you can choose the cutting plane height that works best for your project.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
  
• CEILING FRAMING
  Ceiling framing for vaulted and tray ceilings has been upgraded to reflect industry best practices better. Envisioneer V17 is making material lists and 3D Framing illustrations more accurate.

• SURFACES
  By user request, surfaces can now be created and displayed independently of floors, ceilings, or roofs. Using the surface tool, you can represent any type of horizontal or sloped surface, with each surface’s visibility controlled separately.
  Available in:     Pro Architect     Building Essentials     Construction Suite
  
• ENHANCED QUANTITY REPORTING
  Quantity take-off has always been Envisioneer’s strength. In V17, with the ability to quantify wall systems as a group or by individual components, the results are more refined and accurate than ever. Apply assemblies at any level, change your trims and finishes, and show the impact on the bottom line.
