| 18454 | Fixed bug where the Size and Shape properties were not available to update when selected pads had a different stack mode. |
| 21801 | Fixed bug where "Change Units" command did not work for the 'Snap Distance', when the value from presets has been selected. |
| 22397 | Fixed bug where the Opacity slider disappeared when a group of 3D Models is selected, and did not reappear when selected for editing. |
| 23317 | Fixed regression where the new track Width wasn't immediately applied but required a cursor move after pausing PCB routing to enter a new width. |
| 24268 | Fixed regression where some fonts in the Font Family were not listed in the properties panel. |
| 24276 | Fixed layout of Arc properties in PCB Properties panel (BC:8693). |
| 24363 | Fixed bug that caused changes to be applied immediately when trying to find net by Net Name. |
| 24617 | Fixed regression where it was impossible to un-assign testpoints on net using either the Testpoint Manager or PCB List when both Top and Bottom Testpoints were assigned to a pad, and the pad was moved to top/bottom layer. |
| 25434 | Fixed bug in the Width slider behavior so that it may now be moved to Min, Preferred, Max positions even when the design rules have the same values (BC:8741). |
| 23626 | Improved layer name visibility in the Properties panel. Short layer names are now right-aligned. |
| 23750 | Added TrueType Font support to PCB output PDF files so text may be searched (BC:1482). |
| 23789 | Added ability to do STEP output without free models by adding 'Skip free 3D bodies' option to Export Options dialog (BC:1240). |
| 22288 | Multi-Board: Improved behaviour of object collision test after a plane-to-plane alignment. Implemented speed improvements. |
| 25116 | Added option in View Configuration panel for representation of labels with Special String names in PCB (BC:8832). |
| 24548 | Updated IDF 3.0++ Exporter to include objects with MultiLayer. |
| 22090 | Fixed regression where adding an Ibis model would result in X2.exe to stop working. |
| 22216 | Fixed regression that caused Ctrl+Q hotkey to function when focused on Interactive Properties panel (BC: 8841). |
| 22896 | Fixed regression where the units were not changed in Violation Details when changing units on PCB. |
| 23039 | Fixed bug where changing the 3D Body Opacity for a component, through the Properties panel, caused polygon rebuilding. |
| 23061 | New Graphic Engine - Fixed regression to restore the zoom level to the same depth as previously possible so that very fine grids may be displayed. |
| 25469 | IPC Footprint Wizard now supports step model preview and generation. |
| 23089 | Expedition importer now detects plane layers that contain routes, these are now imported as signal layers. |
| 23782 | Fixed bug where summary DRC information in CAMtastic was not presented correctly. |
| 23818 | Fixed bug where the default rule, rather than the applicable rule, was being displayed in the Properties panel when performing interactive Diff Pair Routing. |
| 23853 | Fixed bug where a corrupted 3D body would result, if trying to create an extruded 3D body using Line 90/90 Horizontal Start with Arc (Radius: 100mil). |
| 24474 | Fixed regression where switching the View to Print in the PCB 3D Print Settings for a project created from templates after generation produces a PCB without solder mask and copper in the generated PDF. |
| 24492 | Fixed bug where analyzing nets for designs containing FromTos took a long period of time. |
| 24513 | Fixed regression where the Line Constraints dialog could not be accessed via the Tab key when slicing a Polygon Pour. |
| 18799 | Updated Polygon Pour options layout in Properties panel. |
| 23507 | Added support for the new UI theme to the IPC Compliant Footprint Wizard. |
