New Features and Enhancements
- Fusion Electronics designs are now supported filetypes with special extensions and special handling just like f3d files. These file types are not downloadable (.fsch => .ElectronicsSchematic, .fbrd => .ElectronicsBoard, .fprj => .ElectronicsDesign)
- Long path work to allow all files in a selection which do not result in a path too long to be downloaded
- Improved long path error and warning messages for various workflows
- Added ability to rename items which have a path too long
- Items with a path too long have a unique icon
- Added file types to list of files to be ignored and will not upload (ds$, dce, rws, dat, slog)
Resolved Issues
- Support for DREF and XREF references to the same file which commonly occur in Civil3D files
- Concurrent uploads of files with the same reference causes CONTAINER_CHILD_NAME_EXISTS error
