Part Module Workbench
- New Feature: Parabola & ArcOfParabola
- New Feature: Hyperbola & ArcOfHyperbola
Part Design & Sketcher Workbench
- Added more regular polygons to sketcher
- Edit Sketch datum constraints from data Property view
- Sketcher new feature: Element widget (geometry is listed, like constraints are)
- Sketcher new feature: Selects the elements associated with the selected constraint(s)
- Sketcher new feature: Select Conflict and Redundant Constraints
- Sketcher feature enhancement: Symmetry constraint perpendicular to axis of symmetry

Draft Workbench
Allow sticky fonts in ShapeString
For the nostalgic of old CAD software, sticky fonts (in which letters are made of simple lines, not filled shapes) can now be used with the ShapeString tool.
Minor improvements
- Lines can now be defined by their length and angle in the current working plane
- Relative extension lines for dimensions
- Support for sketcher ellipses
- Array objects can now be fused
Drawing Workbench
- Allow export drawing pages to DXF
- Reuse projection settings from an existing view when creating new draft views.
Spreadsheet
Arch Workbench
- Support for new ifc-importer/ifc-exporter
- Panel object
- Furniture
- The Basepoint of Frame object can now pass by vertexes point of the profil.
New feature: Cut object with plane
This new functionality makes it possible to cut an object according to a plan defines by the face of another object. It is possible to cut the object behind or in front of the plan chooses.
New roof tool
The Roof tool was completely remade and now makes it possible to define slopes different for each sides from roof, moreover it is possible to define a thickness of roof, the length of the overflow.
External modules
- Assembly 2
- Drawing dimensioning
