In October, we delivered the following new features and improvements to HxGN SDx2.

  • Troubleshooting help for HxGN SDx2 is now available on the Hexagon documentation site at HxGN SDx2 Troubleshooting.

  • You can now easily view multiple PDFs or PDF-renditions quickly in new browser tabs. This view-only feature is an ideal option when you have no markup or markup-tool requirements, allowing for significantly faster loading speeds. (4446047)

    Executing large data reports can sometimes take time and consume significant resources. These reports may cause you to use extra licensing tokens if the report times out due to browser limitations, or you may need to wait for them to finish before continuing with other work. We have improved this process.

    Now, administrators can configure reports to run in the background, with all report formats supported except LISTVIEW. Once configured, you can run the report in the background and continue using HxGN SDx2 for other tasks. You will be notified when the report is completed.

  • You can now distribute documents to a group of users in your own organization using the Internal Transmittal work process. This work process can be used to inform users in your own organization about new revisions of documents. Adding the documents to a transmittal allows you to distribute the documents to a group of users. These users are made aware of the updated documents and have direct access to them. For more information, see Working with transmittals. (4182225)

  • Submittal forms have been updated. To reduce complexity, some information has been removed from the submittal forms. The new forms will be part of a new HxGN SDx2 installation. For existing customers, reach out to your support center for assistance in converting your submittal forms. To know what has changed, go through the before and after screen shots of the forms. We are not automatically updating customer submittal forms, as you may have shared requirements with your contractors for submitting data using these forms. The simplified forms will make the submittal process much easier, more intuitive, and faster to execute. For more information, see Create a submittal. (4431930)
