• macOS 11.0
• iOS 14.0

The ODA Platforms ended support for the following platforms:

• macOS 10.12
• iOS 13.0

New Features

• Beta version of converting OdDb B-Rep based entities (e.g., OdDb3dSolid, OdDbRegion) to BimRv's DirectShape. It is also available for SAT data. Current success rate is 90%.
• Beta version of extruding OdDbSubDMesh faces, which works in all cases except if the zero-direction length is equal to zero.

Improvements

• Boolean operations (e.g., OdResult OdDb3dSolid::booleanOper(OdDb::BoolOperType operation, OdDb3dSolid* pSolid)) now support ACIS interpolated curves. These changes increase the overall success rate from 75% to 90%.

New and Updated Sample Code

• New sample projects DwgDirectShapeImportEx and SatDirectShapeImportEx demonstrate conversion of B-Rep based entities from .dwg and .sat files respectively to DirectShape in .rfa and .rvt files. Both projects require BimRv SDK and ODA B-Rep Modeler. DwgDirectShapeImportEx also requires Drawings SDK.
• New command extrudeConnectedFaces in the OdaMfcApp sample application (module ExCommands) extrudes faces with input steps.

New and Updated Documentation

• New Convert OdDb Geometry and SAT Data to DirectShape topic.
• New Commands for 3D Modeling Functionality topic.
