Highlights
- Apply a pitch to any line so it reports its true sloped length
- Works for roof rakes, sloped driveways, ramps, and any line that runs up a slope
- Change a shared property across several measurements at once, in a single step
- Faster, lighter document opening and more reliable rendering on large plan sets
Pitch for Line Measurements
Pitch used to apply only to area measurements. A line always reported its flat, top-down distance, which comes up short whenever the line runs up a slope. A roof rake measured on the flat plan is shorter than the real rake that climbs the pitch, and the same is true for a sloped driveway or a ramp.
Now any line can carry a pitch. Set it and the line reports its true length along the slope instead of the flat distance on the page. The control lives in the line's properties, right where area pitch already sits, with the common pitches like 6:12 and a flat default. Your numbers never change unless you choose a pitch, and every line you measured before opens exactly as it was.
It is one simple step for every trade, whether a roofer sloping a rake or a sitework estimator sloping a driveway. For anything more specialized, like separate factors for valleys and ridges, a custom template is still the best fit.
Edit Many Measurements at Once
Select two or more measurements of compatible types and a panel appears for the properties they share. Change the pitch once and it applies to all of them in a single step, with a single undo. Today this covers pitch, and it lays the groundwork for more bulk edits down the road.
Quality of Life Fixes
A lighter, faster canvas on large sets. Opening a plan set now does less work up front. Each page renders the moment you open it and stays ready afterward, so large sets open quicker and feel lighter while you work.
More reliable on very large sheets. Uploads of very large plan sets are steadier, and very large sheets render dependably, with an automatic retry if one ever fails to appear the first time.
Loading indicators stay visible. The small status indicators in the bottom corner (page rendering, AI naming, and the like) no longer hide behind a properties panel when you have something selected.
Dashboard fix. Fixed a rare crash that could happen when opening the projects dashboard.
