Conversion properties
Conversion properties which help users manage configurations within model conversion rules can now be defined using Pebble templates. This enhancement makes conversion properties even more powerful and allows for individual model conversion rules to be executed multiple times in an iterative manner.
Pebble templating updates
Added the ability to access a list of dependent entities and attributes within Pebble templates. In addition a wider selection of information about categories and models is now accessible from within Pebble templates.
Performance improvements
There have been significant improvements to the execution speeds of all model conversion rules. These improvements will be particularly noticeable when working with remote repositories. Future versions of WhereScape 3D will continue to provide further performance improvements.
Configurable workflows
User defined workflows can now accommodate a larger range of use cases. Workflow buttons can now be configured to validate models and perform complex conversions with ease.
DevOps enhancements
Several improvements have been made to the WhereScape 3D CLI, which will enhance user experience when creating custom workflow scripts. These features provide an enhanced experience when creating repositories or manipulating repository configurations as part of DevOps processes.
