List of Fault Corrections
This release resolves defects identified through the following support incidents
| Module / Application | Description |
|---|---|

LCS option should no longer exist |
| Structures | Title: SLH is not working correctly after customer upgraded from E3D 3.1.8.1 to v 3.1.9.0. Resolution: Fixed – for both Metric and Imperial MDBs, Corner spacing is respected when “Bend radius” is set to 0. For imperial MDBs, kickplates are now always displayed correctly |
