If crystals do not have a valid SKU info, the JewelCombine command crashed.
At some configurations the Swarovski Elements dialog appeared empty after starting Rhino.
A double click normally fills the crystal set in an Automatik Pave or Pave on Line dialog. If there is no such dialog open, now the double click starts the JewelAdd command.
If the SKU is missing on a crystal block instance, the jewel map did not work and mixed up all colors and labels.
For better visualization and selection the haircross during mouse movement was made.
For faster crystal selection and placement, the active crystal which is used during JewelAdd command can be changed by selecting a different crystal in the component dialog. The crystal will immediately change the type, size and color of the current used crystal.
During saving of the crystalset rhino crashed and no sets were saved.
If the doubleclick was not exactly on the size label of the crystal the wrong technical drawing was downloaded.
If there are placeholder defined in techPLM, Rhino now supports them by sending the right BOM proposal.

It was not possible to upload a production item as CAM Engineer due to missing variant information.
Rhino could not reconnect to the update server, after he lost the connection. This raised a lot of subsequent faults like cavity settings load failure or cad share load failure.

Updated version of techPLM interface library with better error handling.
The variant-released icon was not shown, if a variant is opened from techPLM via RhinoRouter
Due to connection and stability problems the interface to techPLM is now reworked. The advantage is the connection will be shared over Rhino sessions and now it is possible to reconnect to the techPLM server.
The jewels had the wrong security distance on the border.
Dropdown for clipboard-groups displays now only valid clipboards-groups
Now the pips will be added first to the casting part and afterwards the cavities will be subtracted. During this operation the pips will not be in the cavity and the cavity must not be manually reworked.
Helping system changed to online help. Advantage of the new system is immediate changes without plugin update, capability of multilingual, video …

Per default no glue pockets are created for fancy stones
Default pip height changed to 0.25
If a geometry was added to a jewel BOM entry the count column did not show this geometry in parenthesis to visualize that a “non block” crystal was added.
After closing Rhino, it did not shutdown for a long time and did not response to a request from techPLM. In this case the opening from techPLM did not work.
If the volume differs for casting parts, the upload failed because no 3D geometry was exported.
The registration of a custom contour did not work if no changes in the cavity settings were made. In this case the settings were not initialized and the registration of a custom contour failed.
JT can handle instances of geometry, to make a smaller JT. This was not handled correctly in JDS.
Due to boolean failures during creation of the glue pocket an invalid resulting body was created.
