New features in operation and user interface
Service Pack 2 includes a graphical update for the Start centre. There are minor improvements in the ICN, including the exclusive display of position text. There are also new features in external tools such as the CATEditor or the Report Manager.

Innovations in drawing detailing
The highlight of Service Pack 2 is magnetism for labelling objects, such as label flags or shape and position tolerances. Bending points can be moved easily and accurately. Unfolding, among other things, preserves the dimensional changes made by the user during alignment.

Innovations in modelling
In Service Pack 2, the cam connection offers even more practical options for angle drilling. Positioning now takes the machining direction into account for all workpiece types. There are also new features in the formula editor.
