__NOTOC__
===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] NEW - Switch Added for Blockup Label to Float in the Z Axis in AutoCAD===
<table>
<tr>
<td width=300 valign=top>
Previous versions of TubeCAD 8 did not allow the Blockup Labels to float in the Z axis in AutoCAD.  Some customers need the labels to be positioned in true space, so we added a new EXPORT menu of the OPTIONS menu.<br><br>
[[image:tcadpro_8.3_options_export.png|300px]]<br><br>
To change this setup, type "options" in the command line and change the checkbox value in the Export tab menu.

===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] ENHANCED- Removed Blockup Label Text borders in Plot Preview===
<table>
<tr>
<td width=300 valign=top>
Some printer drivers have trouble placing the border around the text properly in the Plot Preview, so TubeCAD now removes the text borders for most Blockup labels.

===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] FIX - Tangent Circle Drawing===
<table>
<tr>
<td width=300 valign=top>
* TubeCAD no longer allows manual adjustment of the ARCSTEP and 3DARCSTEP variables for controlling the tangent circle drawing.   It handles this value automatically in order to guarantee the accuracy of positioning of tangent circles in the outlines.</td>

===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] Other===
<table>
<tr>
<td width=300 valign=top>
* Because of automatic handling of the ARCSTEP variables, TubeCAD now performs Auto Arrange faster.</td>
