Apps for SOLIDWORKS
Updates for SolidSteel parametric, DSTV Assistant, LOGIKAL Interface and AluFrame Assistant

With the new versions 8.1.0 of SolidSteel parametric, 2.1.0 of LOGIKAL Interface, and 6.1.0 of DSTV Assistant and AluFrame Assistant, our SOLIDWORKS apps have been enhanced with new functions and targeted improvements to existing features.

We are confident that these updates will make your everyday design work more efficient and further increase the user-friendliness of the apps. Benefit from optimized performance and even more stable application!

Hotfix x.1.1: Shortly after the release of versions 8.1.0 / 6.1.0 / 2.1.0, a small hotfix was published. An error in the version number check prevented the installed version from being detected. As a result, an available update was always incorrectly displayed. This has been resolved in versions x.1.1.
