Version History

Version Number Version Description

1.1.9

- A total of 11 items in the right-click menu for quick model actions. - Introducing Find Related Clashes, which will redefine how clashes are addressed, reviewed, and resolved in Navisworks. - Clash View: Faster generation of viewpoints, with 3 viewpoints per second when tested on a multi-story residential model. - Group Clashes: More customization for grouping clashes, including 3-level grouping and the ability to use any property value to match similar items. - Annotate Pro: Ability to add a leader to the placed markups. - Tests & Sets: Tests Builder has been renamed to "Tests & Sets", with the ability to independently create sets only, tests only, or both at the same time. - All tools involving parameter selection, including Export Properties, Tests & Sets, Group Clashes, Smart Results, Auto Updated, Clash View, and Annotate Pro, now have the ability to quickly select values from drop-down lists while still allowing users to type custom values if needed.

1.1.8

- Major performance optimizations implemented across all tools, along with expanded customization options. - Added a new feature, Flip Side, allowing quick swapping of Selection A and Selection B in clash tests.

1.1.6

-AutoUpdate: Introducing a new feature that allows you to quickly change result status to Approved/Reviewed based on the element properties and/or clash location -Export Approved: Ability to include element GUID in the exported XML -Import Approved: You can now freely import approved/reviewed clashes between different models using elements GUID. This works even when the clash results are not originated from the same NWF file. -Annotate Pro: Resolved issue when Element ID would display the nested element ID instead of the main object. -Batch Actions: Resolved an issue causing failure to batch update the tests types.

1.1.4

- Smart Results – Say goodbye to generic “Clash1, Clash2…” names. Clashtrix now generates meaningful result names based on the properties of the clashing elements. As a BIM Manager or Coordinator, your team will appreciate working with a federated model where every clash result is clearly identified. - Annotate Pro Enhancements – Improved stability and performance for more accurate and efficient annotations. - Major Updates to Export Categories & Tests Builder – Both tools are now fully compatible with NWC models loaded from Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) via the Coordination add-in. Seamless integration, less friction. - Annotate Pro Improvements: Adding markups on existing viewpoint will update it and not generate a new viewpoint

1.1.2

- Smart Results – Say goodbye to generic “Clash1, Clash2…” names. Clashtrix now generates meaningful result names based on the properties of the clashing elements. As a BIM Manager or Coordinator, your team will appreciate working with a federated model where every clash result is clearly identified. - Annotate Pro Enhancements – Improved stability and performance for more accurate and efficient annotations. - Major Updates to Export Categories & Tests Builder – Both tools are now fully compatible with NWC models loaded from Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) via the Coordination add-in.

1.0.8

-Total remake for the user interface. -New dock panel "Select by ID". -New features added to the Renamer tool. -Added support for manually specifying the clash test name separator when automatic detection fails due to complex naming conventions. - The Sets Maker tool now allows users to include or exclude the name separator in search set conditions. - Approved clashes can now be exported and imported seamlessly across teams in different time zones and with varying date formats. Times are internally standardized to UTC and displayed according to the user's local time in Navisworks. - Fixed an issue where CSV/Excel import would fail if the file was open in another application. This limitation has been resolved. - Internal Names can now be defined when creating Search Sets. Compatible with 2026 where these values can no longer be ignored.
