Trimble Quadri Help
This update is also included in Novapoint 2026.2
Expanded Project Ownership Support: Previously, QfW could not be used in projects where the Shared Object Model was not owned by an account with a Quadri Business Premium license. This restriction has now been removed. QfW now supports all projects with an activated Shared Object Model, regardless of the owner's license tier. Access is now determined solely by the license tier of the signed-in user. This improvement relates to the Desktop Application Access section in the Simplified Shared Object Model Activation in Trimble Connect product update bulletin.
NEW: ColorFromGeometry presentation rules are now included also for Quadri models based on a regular Object Type Catalogue.
ENHANCEMENT: Delete Objects outside AOI with more info on the objects like Name, Task, Process, Type.
FIXED: Grasshopper Connector: When re-build Novapoint Road task, you get error "fail retrieve data from Quadri".
FIXED: Grasshopper Connector: Error "One or more coordinates have innsufficient information" when an alignment (line task) that does not have vertical geometry for its entire length.
FIXED: Geometry color rendering for objects with more than one surface patch.
FIXED: The ColorByGeometry standard presentation rules don't draw default geometry boundaries anymore.
FIXED: General bug fixing and small enhancements.
NEW: Import of .trb files: Support added for importing TrimBIM files (.TRB). This enables first and foremost bringing in data to Quadri from several source formats that is not otherwise supported - for example Revit files (.RVT). Learn more
NEW: Clean up of Norwegian WMS templates. NGU BerggrunnWMS3 and Reguleringsplaner WMS (DiBK) replaces old ones with new URL (NOR config).
FIXED: Selecting multiple layers in WFS import causes the dialog to be huge.
FIXED: Standard conversion rules for GeoJSON import into Quadri.
ENHANCEMENT: The user interface is improved.
FIXED: Silent doublet control for connector using CreateNewVersion when it should use ModifyExistingVersione Merge.
FIXED: Property Set Editor crashes when editing existing task.
NEW: New action to do a "duplicate" control designed to streamline how you group and manage model data. This update allows for more efficient bulk processing by identifying features based on shared characteristics.
Group by Attribute Value: You can now configure the automation tool to scan for and list all features that share an identical value for a specific attribute type.
Dynamic Selection Sets: The tool provides an option to automatically convert these identified features into an active selection within the Quadri application.
Workflow Efficiency: By automating the identification of matching features, you can bypass manual filtering and immediately perform downstream actions on the grouped data.
NEW: CSV File Import and Binding to be able to import a CSV file directly within the Ruleeditor's CSV-related task properties. The file is automatically copied into the rule's bundle folder (using the Rule ID) and its path is replaced with a relative filename, ensuring the rule can always find its data regardless of the machine or location.
NEW: Rule-level CSV File Management . New menu options within the Ruleeditor to delete or export (copy) the bundled CSV file associated with a rule, to easily update the CSV by copying it out for editing, or remove it entirely from the ruleset bundle if it's no longer needed, maintaining a clean and accurate ruleset package.
NEW: Automation rules containing CSV files: Previously, the CSV file was stored locally. In this version, the CSV file is bundled directly with the rule. This makes it much easier to distribute rules and their associated CSV files to all users via a Project Rule. You can still run older rules using a local CSV file.
FIXED: The "..."-button for selecting a CSV-file doesn't work.
FIXED: CSV Loop causing multiple file selection pop ups.
FIXED: CSV Loop should only by connected with a "loop", not with "direct connect"
FIXED: Using CSV loop, and the CSV file has blank fields, will result in an error.
FIXED: Freeze when a user attempts to define the "Parent Attribute" in the Copy Values From Parent Editor.
FIXED: Crash on open when Ruleset path in Settings matches Model path with existing Project Rule.
ENHANCEMENT: The Locate Along Network tool: It is now possible to select more than one alignment and to specify whether an object is connected to the network with a point- or section connection type.
FIXED: Creating a sub surface layer (soil) in Quadri result in an error.
NEW: The Sub Surface tool is now working also for models created with an IFC 4.3 Object Type Catalogue.
NEW: More export options for parametric geometry are included in the IFC Export Settings dialog.
ENHANCEMENT: Improved control of number of decimals when importing and exporting IFC-files. This can be specified in the Format dialog in the Conversion Rule Editor.
ENHANCEMENT: IFC-import/export: Improved performance and robustness, including export using segmentation objects.
ENHANCEMENT: For IFC-import/export: The global insertion point is shown as a red droplet in the preview.
ENHANCEMENT: Spatial Breakdown tasks: You can now save a spatial breakdown task down in the breakdown structure as a task. Then only the spatial breakdown task from the selected level and downwards are included in the template.
ENHANCEMENT: Conversion Rule Editor: The Event Handler wording is improved to match the corresponding wording in the IFC Export Settings dialog
ENHANCEMENT: Local placement option for IfcSite is now included in the IFC Export Settings dialog.
ENHANCEMENT: For IFC-export using segmentation: It is now possible to concatenate attribute values from the segmentation object with attribute values on the exported objects.
FIXED: IFC-Export: Color for multi-surface is supported.
FIXED: IFC-Export: Comma is not changed to dots in the exported file anymore.
FIXED: In the Automation tool: When running the "Create Child Object" action with multiple conditions, then duplicates of IfcMaterial, IfcClassification and IfcClassificationReference could be produced.
FIXED: The handling of alignment cant-values is fixed for IFC 4.3 import and export into a Quadri model based on an IFC 4.3 Object Type Catalogue. In addition the handling of alignment cant-values is fixed for the import of a Quadri model based on a regular Object Type Catalogue into a Quadri model based on an IFC 4.3 Object Type Catalogue.
FIXED: Standard conversion rules for importing IFC 2x3 and IFC 4 files into a Quadri model based on an IFC 4.3 Object Type Catalogue are now also handling relations.
FIXED: If you contain only the child objects in an IfcElementAssembly in a spatial entity, then this entity with the contained objects can be exported.
FIXED: Import of a Quadri model based on a regular Object Type Catalogue into a Quadri model based on an IFC 4.3 Object Type Catalogue: The tasks are now updated too.
FIXED: Conversion rules with the source or destination format set to IFC4X3 instead of IFC4X3_ADD2 is now considered equal by the system.
ENHANCEMENT: When publishing DWG, if ShellOnly solid geometry is "watertight" it will be published as Solid, as opposed to PolyFaceMesh.
FIXED: Exporting LandXML, Project state (proposed/existing) under Version in settings listed double in UI.
FIXED: Exporting LandXML gives wrong timestamp in the file.
