New: Enable the COM object to send the endhook information to IMPACT for CAD. (Case 138134)

Fix

Fix: The X measure / height of J and G shape code was showing wrong. (Case 137318)

The height (X, Y measures) of some shape codes, e.g., J, G etc., was incorrect (Figure 1). Measures X and Y are supposed to be measured up to the highest / lowest point of the arc, instead it was measured till the intersection point of the two segments. This is fixed in 14.0.013 (Figure 2).

Fix: Some shape codes have incorrect geometry in solid and in 2D. (136822)

When showing thickness / 3D solid, we first get the centerline of the bar. For some bars e.g. J, G etc., some segments themselves are considered as part of the centerline which resulted in incorrect thickness and 3D representation (Figure 3.1 and Figure 3.2).

In the newer version this has been changed. We now consider the tangents to the circles formed between the two segments to get the new center line. This way, the thickness and 3D representation stay within the bounds of the bar(Figure 4.1 and Figure 4.2)
