Higharc Townhome Beta Release Notes

Electrical layouts and entities in reusable unit components

Electrical layouts and electrical entities can now be authored inside a reusable component definition and automatically propagate to every room of every placed instance. Design the electrical once in the component, and it carries through all placements without manual re-entry.
​

Duplicate a component definition

Users can now duplicate an existing component definition from the inspector (via a new duplicate button next to the trash icon) or from the Explorer (via right-click or ellipsis menu). The duplicated component is immediately editable, including for doc-referenced components
​

​
Reporting unit count visible in Home Inspector


When a home plan contains more than one reporting unit, the Home Inspector's Attributes panel now shows a "Reporting Unit Count" field. Makes it easier to verify multi-unit plans at a glance and helps diagnose configuration issues without a separate lookup


​​

Fixes!

  • Fixed levels in a component incorrectly collapsing together when the component was referenced from an external file. Multi-level component geometry now renders correctly in all referenced files.

  • Fixed porch railings in component instances not showing the gap in front of a door. When a porch with a railing is defined in a component, the door clearance gap now appears correctly in all instances

  • Fixed Floor System and Foundation System objects from the host model incorrectly appearing inside Component Edit Mode. Component Edit Mode now shows only geometry belonging to the component being edited.
