1.

No more activation of crop in document settings needed anymore to see

what your camera sees.

So working and navigating in perspective isometric views is possible again.

2.

Purge command now optional finds and deletes "Coincident Duplicate Objects" !!!!1!!!

(Well, it would be nice to see them in view window before deleting them optimistically)

The most overlooked feature without its own feature video is  clearly :

"Always Auto Join in Capped Join Mode"
Option in the Wall's Components Settings.

I got the first hint just 3 weeks before VW 2017 is coming.
That setting does what Wall Connection Tool never did in "capped mode",
join Wall Components in Capped Mode, not just the whole Wall.

Manually joining Components got easily lost if you touch a Wall and it auto joins again.

Draw 2 perpendicular (non touching) Multi Component Walls in Top Plan view.
Choose the manual Wall Join Tools to make an L-Joint.

Try the different options "uncapped" and "Capped Join Mode".
In Standard non Capped Mode it will cut Wall (Components) at 45°.
Capped Mode does just cut the whole Wall Package and forces kind of an T-Joint at an Edge.

Both not useful if Walls have different Heights.

If you Set that option "Always auto join capped" Option in Wall Style > Component,
it will really join every component together in a "capped" way (90° cut)
