Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.7.0

Change The names of tolerance tables have been revised. They are now written correctly and completely according to the citation rules for standards. For example, "DIN-ISO-2768-1" has been replaced by "DIN ISO 2768-1:1991-06".

Bug fix As of program version 1.3.7.0, a path to "CharacteristicClasses.json" specified by the start parameter was no longer taken into account. This bug is fixed.

Change The exports are started from the user interface by right-clicking on the desired test plan version. The context menu now contains the two submenu items "Export to one file" and "Export to several files" instead of the previous common menu item "Export as". An export that exports the entire test plan version to one file can be found under "Export to one file". An export that generates a file for each partial test plan can be found under "Export to several files".

 See User Manual > Functions > Export > Export drawing
 See User Manual > Functions > Export > Export stamp views

Bug fix Some characters of graphical symbols were not displayed correctly under the Windows 7 operating system. This bug has been fixed.

Extension When you create characteristics manually, more entries in the fast entry dialog are interpreted correctly than the desired characteristic.
 See User Manual > Functions > Characteristics > Manually stamp

Extension Concerns the export of the test plan to the ASCII transfer format. Previously, partial test plan versions were exported to individual DFD files (a partial test plan contains the characteristics belonging to a drawing sheet). Now all partial test plan versions can optionally be exported to a single DFD file.
 See User Manual > Functions > Export > Export test plan
 See Administrator's Manual > Configuration and Import > Startup parameter file > Export quality test plans and stamped drawings

Extension Affects all exports that are triggered by the "Target" start parameter call. The additional, optional parameter "InspectionPlanVersionExportMode" can now be used to specify that the last test plan version at the time of export is exported. Otherwise, the test plan version addressed by the "InspectionPlanVersion" parameter is exported as usual.
 See Administrator's Manual > Configuration and Import > Startup parameter file > Export quality test plans and stamped drawings

Bug fix The "Zero values are not transferred to the characteristic" option contained in the “Limit values in one direction (min., max.)”, “Shape and positional tolerances” and “Surface parameters” setting groups did not work correctly in parts. This error has been corrected.
 See User Manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Limit values in one direction (min., max.)” group
 See User Manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Shape and positional tolerances” group
 See User Manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Surface parameters” group

Extension The descriptions for the setting groups “Limit values in one direction (min., max.)”, “Shape and positional tolerances” and “Surface parameters” have been extended with overview graphics.
 See User Manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Limit values in one direction (min., max.)” group
 See User Manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Shape and positional tolerances” group
 See User Manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Surface parameters” group

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.6.1

Bug fix and Change The parameter "CommonAppDataPath" in the parameter file "settings.json" never worked correctly and was therefore deleted. Instead, the path to the directory with configuration and template files is now passed as the start parameter "forceConfigDir".
 See Administrator's Manual > Configuration and Import > Startup parameter file

Bug fix The characteristic recognition has been optimized. Modifiers are now recognized much more reliably.
 See User Manual > User Interface > Function windows > Characteristic properties > Properties

Extension In the glossary of terms you will now find an informal section on "Specification operators and specification modifiers in the ISO GPS standards system".
 See User manual > More > Specification operators and modifiers (ISO GPS)

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.5.8

Bug fix In the "Characteristic Properties" window, the handling of the individual reference system ("B-System") was incorrect. On the one hand, the input in the text field "B-System" in interaction with the field "Reference" did not behave correctly, on the other hand, the characteristic title was not updated after a change of the value "B-System". Both errors are fixed.

Bug fix Drawing graphics of drawing sheets, which contain a character combination of dot and two following digits in the file name, could not be exported. This bug has been fixed.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.5.5

Extension When calling infra CONVERT 2019 using the start parameter file, relative paths can now also be specified.
 See Administrator's Manual > Configuration and Import > Startup parameter file

Extension The file path to the location of drawing files can now also be specified in URL notation, starting with "https" and "http", using the start parameter call.
 See Administrator's Manual > Configuration and Import > Startup parameter file > Transfer drawing

Extension By definition in the parameter file "SpecialCategories.json" now more categories and categories with different GUIDs can be defined than the six predefined categories.

Bug fix The compatibility of projects created with an older version of infra CONVERT 2019  than 1.1.3.0 is now ensured.

Extension By double-clicking on a drawing sheet entry in the directory tree in the project overview, you can now switch to the characteristic overview.

Extension infra CONVERT 2019 can now handle various special features in the data structure of customer-specific drawing files.

Bug fix The test plan export to CSV format now returns diameter and degree characters in the "Value" column.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.5.4

Bug fix If the function "Remove large coordinate crosses from drawings" (available from version 1.3.5.4) was activated with the parameter "MacrosAfterLoad" in the "settings.json", the program was suspended at certain points when the start parameter file was used to call the program.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.5.2

Extension In special cases, DXF and DWG drawing files contain coordinate crosses that mark the drawing origin as extremely large line elements. A function has been added to remove these line elements when loading a drawing file.

Bug fix UAC virtualization was disabled in program version 1.3.5.2. If write access rights for the ProgramData directory were missing, the mechanism of the operating system to store configuration files in the VirtualStore instead of in the ProgramData directory was no longer used. Only new installations with version 1.3.5.2 are affected; if a configuration directory for infra CONVERT had already been created under ProgramData, UAC virtualization remained active.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.5.0

Bug fix After importing an ICP project or opening an ICPX project, it could happen that not all stamps immediately showed the assigned tagging color, but only after updating the window. This error has been corrected.

Bug fix When the Stamp tool was activated, executing the Delete command from the context menu (right-click on the stamp in the drawing window or the characteristic in the feature list) caused the user interface to freeze. This bug has been fixed.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.3.5

Change When opening or creating a project via start parameter call, the start window was visible during loading. This window no longer appears.

Change The speed of image rendering in the drawing window could be increased significantly. Actions such as zooming, moving and selecting elements run noticeably faster, especially with large drawing files.

Bug fix When working in the drawing window, and this also applies to the work in the drawing comparison, most users in very rare cases, a few users more frequently froze the window or received an error message ("Renderer could not be initialized") and then the program crashed. The cause of this instability has been fixed.

Change The speed of the stamping process could be significantly increased by optimizations.

Bug fix Two errors related to manually created characteristics have been corrected in the drawing comparison. Firstly, characteristics could not be transferred to a new inspection plan version if they had originally been created manually in infra - CONVERT v11 using the quick input dialog and loaded into infra CONVERT 2019 in an ICP project. On the other hand, the transfer was unnecessarily slow.

Bug fix  The paths of last opened projects on the start page are checked for actuality at program start.

Bug fix Under the Windows 7 operating system, the test plan export to Excel format could not be triggered from the user interface. This error has been corrected.

Change and extension The test plan export in CSV format contains two changes (1 and 2) to make it compatible with the CSV export from infra - CONVERT version 11, as well as an extension (3):
1) Column 13 ("Count" or "Repetitions") is exported as column 19.
2) The parameter names are output depending on the language set in the program.
3) The file name of the drawing sheet on which the stamp is located is also output.
 See Administrator's manual > Export > CSV test plan format > Characteristic data

Bug fix In the tolerance tables "DIN-EN-ISO-9013-Table-6.json" and "DIN-EN-ISO-9013-Table-6.json" the nominal dimension ranges were incorrectly created by a factor of 1,000. This error has been corrected.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.3.4

Bug fix Fixes a recognition error in DXF and DWG drawings exported from the Creo or Creo Elements/Direct Modeling CAD system. This error occurred for the first time in program version 1.3.3.4 due to an oversight during a correction in the program.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.2.7

Bug fix Drawing files in TIFF format could not be loaded from the user interface if the file extension was "*.tiff" with two instead of one "f". This bug is fixed.

Change The paths of last opened projects on the start page are checked for actuality at program start.

Extension The position of a stamp is now transferred to the new drawing sheet during drawing comparison.

Bug fix Characteristics created by duplicating or re-stamping could not be transferred to a new inspection plan version by manual merging during drawing comparison. This restriction has been removed.

Bug fix Instabilities when saving large project files have been fixed.

Bug fix Switching the language has led to instability of the program in special constellations. These bugs have been fixed.

Bug fix The list field "Language" did not show an entry after the installation, but only after the first change of this setting. Now the correct entry is displayed immediately.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.3.0

Bug fix Loading ICPX projects via start parameter call could fail if an ICP project file with a PDF drawing file was loaded into this project once. This bug has been fixed.

Bug fix The characteristics list behaved incorrectly when moving characteristics that were created by duplicating or re-stamping. This bug has been fixed.

Bug fix The status was no longer displayed in the "License Information" window. This bug is fixed.

Bug fix Working with PDF drawing files containing large image files could lead to instability of the program. This bug is fixed.

Bug fix The use of the values "null" and "none" for the test plan export format "JSON", which some parameters can have, was described incorrectly. It is now correctly described which parameters can have the value "zero" and/or "None".
 See Administrator's manual > Export > Quality test plan format JSONV1 > Characteristics

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.2.6

Bug fix When exporting the test plan in ASCII transfer format (*.dfd), the drawing path was not output and the file extension was not output correctly. Both errors are fixed.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.2.0

Extension Additional buttons for DeepL access are displayed on the page in the start window.
 See User manual > User interface > Main window > Start window

Bug fix The quick entry dialog for creating characteristics manually was not displayed correctly under Windows 7. This error has been corrected.

Change When renumbering with the tools "Number clockwise", "Number in reading direction" and "Number by list position", the number range of the selected features is now directly released for this numbering process.

Change/Bug fix By entering a text field in the "Characteristics Properties" window, the user could assign the same stamp label to a characteristic if he was on a different drawing sheet. The assignment of the same stamp labels within one inspection plan version is now prevented and in another inspection plan version only possible after confirmation of a warning message.

Bug fix The field "Modifiers" in the window "Characteristics" was defective.

Bug fix If an already stamped drawing entry was decomposed, the link between the existing characteristic and this drawing entry no longer existed, leading to instability. The decomposition of an already stamped drawing entry is now only possible if the user agrees to delete the characteristic in the process.

Bug fix In very large drawings, too fast stamping of individual drawing entries one after the other could lead to defective characteristics being created. This problem has been fixed.

Change If characteristic properties are defined for a variable characteristic and the type is switched to "Attributive", no more properties are exported that are not available for attributive characteristics.

Extension The inspection plan in ASCII transfer format (*.dfd) displays additional characteristic properties. K2800 to K2802: GUID of the stamp. K2850 to K2852: Position of the stamp ("PositionX", "PositionY"), the reference point ("TargetX", "TargetY") and the stamp radius ("Radius"), indicated in pixels on the drawing graphic.
 See Administrator's Manual >  Export > Quality test plan format DFD (ASCII) > Characteristic data

Extension A possibility to modify the start parameter call for graphic export has not been described so far. The "Mode" parameter can be used to limit the export to drawing or stamp graphics.
 See Administrator’s Manual > Configuration and Import > Startup parameter file > Export quality test plans and stamped drawings

The version contains only minor changes compared to version 1.3.1.2.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.1.5

Extension With the new re-stamp feature, you can now create a completely independent copy of a characteristic in addition to duplicating it.
 See User manual > Functions > Characteristics > Duplicate and re-stamp

Bug fix The specified increment for number assignment during stamping and numbering is now also taken into account for the "Numbering by list position" function.

Extension You can now define the structure of the characteristic title for characteristics of type "attributive" in the settings. Previously, you could only define the structure of the title for variable characteristics. For attributive characteristics, the title was created automatically.
 See Settings > Settings > Characteristics > “Format characteristic title” group

Extension infra CONVERT 2019 can handle collective drawings (such a drawing contains several component variants). A suitable workflow is now described.
 See More > Create test plans from a collective drawing

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.0.3

Extension If a drawing file uses a font not installed on the machine, infra CONVERT 2019 has replaced it with a default font without notifying the user. If a replacement takes place, the user will now be notified which fonts have been replaced.

Change In the fields "Nominal size", "Upper tolerance" and "Lower tolerance" in the window "Characteristic properties" only decimal numbers with the decimal separator "Point" can now be entered.

Bug fix When moving an entry in the characteristics list, the visible area now follows the moved entries. Previously, the list always jumped to the beginning.

Bug fix If an incorrect value is entered in the "Tolerance class" field in the "Characteristics properties" window, the user is now notified of this with a corresponding message and no longer with a standard error message.

Bug fix Clicking too fast with the manual renumbering tool no longer hangs the program.

Bug fix The stamp coordinates in number of pixels, related to the output drawing graphic, are now output correctly even if the drawing sheet has been rotated. Before, the coordinates always referred to the original orientation.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.2.1.6

Bug fix In some cases, graphics embedded in PDF files were not displayed. This bug has been fixed.

Bug fix The position of stamps in old infra-CONVERT project files (*.icp) with PDF drawing files as base is now correctly imported.

Change The name of the software infra CONVERT 2018 has been changed to infra CONVERT 2019 .

Extension There is another parameter for controlling the accessibility or visibility of controls (parameter file "UiAccess.json"). The parameter "UnsavedChangesDialog" can be used to suppress the conditional query when closing a project or closing the program, with which the user is asked if he wants to save unsaved changes.
 See Administrator's manual handbuch > Configuration und Import > Element name

Bug fix The start value "0" was not used for stamping, provided that this value was allowed in the settings. This error has been fixed.

Extension The JSON test plan contains two additional characteristic properties. Analogous to the parameter "CompareSourceId" in the field of the stamp, another parameter "CompareSourceId" in the field of the characteristic specifies the GUID of the characteristic from which it was originally created during the drawing comparison by transferring or merging; another parameter "DirectCompareSourceId" in the same place refers to the direct predecessor characteristic.
 Siehe Administrator's manual > Quality test plan format JSONV1 > Characteristics

Bug fix Graphics were saved in drawings in DWG or DXF format only as a reference, but not as part of them. This bug has been fixed.

Bug fix The stamp size specified next to the stamp position ("Position", "Target") is now also output in the CSV test plan format in pixels and no longer in drawing units.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.2.0.17

Extension The start parameter file can be used to zoom in directly on a stamp.
 Siehe Administrator's manual > Configuration and Import > Zoom on stamp.

 See User manual > Functions > Export > Export test plan

Extension The entire user interface is available in German, English, French, Italian, Spanish and Russian.
 See User manual > Settings > Settings > General > “Language” group

Extension The stamp reference point can be moved by the user.
 See User manual > Functions > Characteristics > Reposition and align stamp

Extension Characteristics can be renumbered in the characteristics list using the list item.
 See User manual > Functions > Characteristics > Change numbering

Bug fix The "Characteristics Properties" window can be opened again using the button.

Extension The JSON test plan contains another feature: The "CompareSourceId" parameter specifies the GUID of the stamp from which it was originally created during drawing comparison by transfer or merging.
 See Administrator's manual > Quality test plan format JSONV1 > Characteristics

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.3.0.6

Bug fix Replacing characteristic types with categories and tags when importing ICP project files did not work for certain combinations of categories and labels. This bug has been fixed.

Bug fix The index (".1", ".2" etc.) of duplicated characteristics was no longer displayed in the characteristics list if the project was created with program version 1.1.1.0 or earlier. This bug has been fixed.

Bug fix Entering numeric values in the "Start Value" field of the characteristics window was a bit cumbersome when the start value or increment for stamp numbering was not equal to one. The reason was the dynamic check of the input, which suppressed already incomplete inputs, if these did not correspond to the final result. For example, if the start value was "10", the validator already prevented the entry of the first digit "1".

Change The evaluation of a very long, multi-line word specification took a very long time in some cases. Characteristic recognition has been optimized accordingly. A significant delay should no longer exist.

Bug fix Angle sizes with the decimal separator comma are now correctly created.

Bug fix When manually inserting characteristics (creation via quick input dialog), the software hung up if changes had already been made to the properties of the characteristic just created, even though the stamp had not yet been placed. This error has been corrected.

Extension An Autosave function for automatically saving projects at a specified time interval is now available.
 See User manual > Settings > Settings > “Project” group

Extension The number of repetitions of a characteristic is now also output in the DFD format (key K2840, K2841, K2842).
 See Administrator's manual > Export > Prüfplanformat DFD (ASCII Transferformat) > Characteristic data

Bug fix The stamp views that are exported as stamp graphics can no longer grow uncontrollably if the characteristic was created manually (using the quick input dialog) and the stamp was placed far away from the reference point.

Changes, extensions and bug fixes since version 1.2.0.21

Extension The "Decompose" and "Export as SVG" controls can now be disabled via the "UiAccess" parameter file.
 See Administrator's Manual > Configuration and Import > Configuration and Import > Element name

Bug fix An associated drawing file is now loaded directly if it is not in the original directory, but in the same directory as the ICP file.

Bug fix Several bugs in the transfer of stamp and characteristic information during ICP import have been fixed.

Extension The "Define Field Division" dialog now additionally contains a selection of default settings to be able to define the labels for the field divisions of the most common sheet formats with a mouse click.
 See User manual > Functions > Drawings > Define field division

Extension The user guidance when merging characteristics in the drawing comparison (function in the Pro version) has been improved.
 See User manual > Functions > Drawings > Compare drawings (Pro version)

Bug fix The "Move Sheet" function no longer hangs the program in the drawing comparison.

Bug fix The subscription comparison was revised overall. Errors in the display should no longer occur.

Bug fix A duplicated characteristic is now displayed in the characteristic list immediately after it has been duplicated.

Extension A further 28 units of measurement can be assigned to characteristic classes ("NominalUnit" and "ToleranceUnit").
 See Administrator's manual > Configuration and Import > Parameter file "CharacteristicClasses" > Dimension unit
 See Administrator's manual > Configuration and Import > Parameter file "CharacteristicClasses" > Unit of the tolerance limits

Extension Optionally, you can specify that manually inserted characteristics are automatically transferred during drawing comparison.
 See User manual > Settings > Settings > “Transfer of manually inserted characteristics during drawing comparison” group

Change The drawing comparison was revised overall. If a characteristic is transferred to a new inspection plan version, the properties of the characteristic in the new inspection plan version can now be changed independently, that is, the status is changed to "Edited" and the characteristics of the original characteristic are not changed.

Bug fix You can use an option to specify that several individual characteristics are to be created from one characteristic by specifying the repetitions. These individual characteristics are now displayed correctly in the characteristic overview.

Bug fix The characteristic properties "Unit of measurement" and "Unit of tolerance values" are updated and correctly output by the user after switching the class.

Change The setting "Limit values in one direction", which influences the recognition of these characteristics, has been extended so that the standard specifications are adhered to. The standard is set as default.
 See User manual > Settings > Settings > Characteristic > “Limit values in one direction (min., max.)” group.

Extension Further characteristic properties are output to the test plans in JSON and CSV format: Position of the stamp ("PositionX", "PositionY"), the reference point ("TargetX", "TargetY") and the stamp radius ("Radius").
 See Administrator's guide > Quality test plan format JSONV1 > Characteristics
 See Administrator's guide >Quality test plan format CSV > Characteristic data

Bug fix You can use an option to specify that several individual characteristics are to be created from one characteristic by specifying the repetitions. These individual characteristics are now exported correctly in all test plan formats.

Bug fix The resolution of drawing graphics specified in the settings is also taken into account if an export command was passed via the start parameter file.
