Sovelia CAD Add-In Release News

What's new in Sovelia CAD Add-In 26.1?

March 23, 2026

Sovelia CAD Add-In 26.1 focuses on improving automation capabilities, enhancing user experience, and increasing overall reliability. This release introduces new possibilities for event-driven scripting and drawing automation, along with UI refinements and practical workflow improvements that support more efficient and consistent daily CAD work.

Dark mode and UI changes

This version introduces the dark mode in Sovelia CAD Add-In, bringing a more modern and visually comfortable user interface, especially for users working long hours in CAD environments. In addition to dark mode, parts of the user interface have been redesigned to improve clarity and consistency. These changes result in a more appealing and polished user experience, aligning the add-in more closely with modern CAD and application UI standards.

Support for creating drawing object with iLogic

Sovelia CAD Add-In 26.1 extends iLogic capabilities by allowing users to create drawing objects programmatically, in the same way items have previously been created. Drawing creation is based on a predefined template drawing object, ensuring consistent structure and metadata. This enhancement enables advanced automation scenarios and is particularly valuable when combined with design automation, reducing manual work and supporting more scalable and repeatable CAD processes.
 

Running scripts on events

Sovelia CAD Add-In 26.1 introduces support for running scripts in response to events. In Autodesk Inventor, this is implemented using iLogic, while in AutoCAD, SCR files are used. Scripts can be triggered in connection with key actions such as promote and revise, both before and after the event. This provides increased flexibility in event-driven scenarios, enabling customers to tailor behavior and automate additional logic based on their specific process requirements.
 

Possibility to copy the revision description from the model to the drawing

As drawings are typically revised together with their related items, keeping revision descriptions aligned is often essential. This version introduces the ability to synchronize revision descriptions directly from the item to the drawing. This reduces the need to enter the same information multiple times during a revision and helps ensure a more efficient and consistent revision workflow.
 

Stability and feature enhancements

Sovelia CAD Add-In 26.1 includes a range of general improvements focused on performance, stability, and refinement of existing features. These enhancements improve overall reliability and ensure a smoother day-to-day experience when working with the CAD add-in as part of the Sovelia ecosystem.
