Changelog

Version 2.45 (Renga 8.11)

• SD#7546011 — The ability to get a bounding box of the assembly model and the building model.
• SD#7555932 — The ability to get the localized text of the parameter group.
• SD#7567867 — The ability to specify the plugin version using the major.minor.build.revision format.
• SD#7556051 — The ability to obtain the localized text of the application-level enumeration elements.
• SD#7556052 — The ability to obtain the type of entity referenced by the parameter.
• Expanded the AngleUnit enumeration with the Radians value.
• Expanded the QuantityType enumeration with Angle and Elevation values.
• Added the AsAngle and AsElevation methods to the IQuantity interface.
• Added methods for obtaining the name and localized text of the quantity.
• A table of correspondence between quantities and their types has been added to the help.
• Added the Pinned property to the IModelObject interface.
• The ability to edit roof slopes using the IRoofSlopes interface.

Migration guide

• The Quantities.TreadLength and Quantities.RiserHeight constants have been deleted, their support was kept for backward compatibility. Use Parameters.TreadDepth and Parameters.RiserHeight instead.
• Getting the SlopeAngle quantity no longer returns null, now it has the Angle type, use IQuantity::AsAngle method to get its value.
• The RelativeObjectBaselineBottomElevation, RelativeObjectBaselineTopElevation RelativeObjectBottomElevation and RelativeObjectTopElevation quantities now have the Elevation type instead of Length, use IQuantity::AsElevation method to get its value. Getting the value using IQuantity::AsLength will also continue to work for backward compatibility.
• Changed behavior after fixing the error from SD#7558706: If an object has "none" insulation, 0 is returned as the value of the InsulationId parameter of that object and 0 is used to assign "none" insulation to the object.
• The following API elements have been renamed for clarity and consistency, update your code accordingly:

  Old name	New name
  EntityTypes.DrawingLinkedDrawing	EntityTypes.DrawingReferenceDrawing
  EntityTypes.DrawingLinkedImage	EntityTypes.DrawingImage
  EntityTypes.LinkedDrawing	EntityTypes.ReferenceDrawing
  EntityTypes.LinkedImage	EntityTypes.Image
  EntityTypes.LinkedModel	EntityTypes.Model3D
  Parameters.InsulationMaterialStyleID	Parameters.InsulationId
  IParameterDefinition.UserDefinedEnumerationItems	IParameterDefinition.EnumerationItemTexts
