New presets:
-
Default girder truss BC depth
Currently girder trusses always default to the same BC material as common trusses. Girder trusses typically need a BC material deeper than the default material used for common trusses. This preset allows girder trusses to open from layout with a preset default BC depth. The default depth will display under the Board
-
Minimum width for continuous bearing
This preset allows trusses from layout with bearings of a certain minimum width to open in Keytruss as a continuous bearing. This value should not be less than 10 inches.
Bevels
Bevels are now added as piece selection criteria for single and double bevel cuts.
