Version 1.0.5 - 03.05.2019
- Added toolbar icons for "Documents" module.
- Added a Custom Header Library/Manager in the Headers tab of the Global Settings.
- Enabled custom headers for doors, windows and garage doors.
- Enabled three new header materials: LVL, PSL, and Timber.
Just a word of warning for those users on MacOS. The headers tab of the global settings (Page 2) will probably exhibit the same issue with the HTML menus as the Material Library. I am still trying to come up with a proper work around in the code that fixes the modal behavior on MacOS and so far it has confounded my best efforts.
What this means is that you will probably not be able to add or edit headers in the library currently if you are a Mac user. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and I am just as frustrated with this issue as you are right now.
In the meantime if you need to (manually) edit the header libraries they are stored in the "library_headers" sub-folder of the plugin. There are two files, one is for imperial headers and one is for metric headers. Either file is a simple text filed deliminated by vertical bars.
The text files can be edited in any text editor (eg. notepad, wordpad, TextEdit etc...)
Each row or line of the library file contains seven columns or entries.
The first the row is the header name with "mdkheader_" prefix attached.
The second row is the header name.
The third row is the header depth (in./mm)
The fourth row is the header thickness (in./mm)
The fifth row is the header ply (1,2 or 3)
The sixth row is the header material (LUMBER, TIMBER, LSL, PSL, or LVL)
The seventh row is the header status (ACTIVE or INACTIVE)
Note that the material library can also be modified manually however if textures are involved it becomes slightly more complicated as you would also need to place a copy of the image file in the "library_mats" sub-folder along with editing the MATERIAL_LIBRARY.txt file.
