&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects affecting bar location in various tools were adjusted, to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;It is highly recommended to finish ongoing projects started in ProStructures v8i withing the same software version.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;To have the ability to upgrade the models to ProStructures CONNECT Edition and understand those possible minor differences in geometry and location of rebar, the Upgrade Comparison Tool has been developed.&lt;br /&gt;When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation together with sample images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;a href="/products/prostructures/w/structural_drafting_and_detailing__wiki/42592/upgrade-comparison-tool-tech-notes#top"&gt;Back to the top&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;1. Highlight Active&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the active (upgraded to CONNECT Edition) model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;2. Highlight&amp;nbsp;Reference&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the reference (original v8i)&amp;nbsp;model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0004"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Workflow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;.

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically.

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;a href="/products/prostructures/w/structural_drafting_and_detailing__wiki/42592/upgrade-comparison-tool-tech-notes#top"&gt;Back to the top&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When bars were distributed by Spacing and &amp;quot;0&amp;quot; value was used for both Offsets and Side Cover in v8i, bars centerline was placed on the edge of the concrete, making edge rebar stick out of concrete.&lt;br /&gt;Fixed in CONNECT Edition, affecting edge bar location.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Each case contains a brief explanation to gether with smaple images from both v8i&amp;nbsp;and CONNECT Edition product versions, as well as example tool settings. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically.

&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/products/prostructures/w/structural_drafting_and_detailing__wiki/42592/upgrade-comparison-tool-tech-notes#top"&gt;Back to the top&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0004"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Workflow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically.

&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0003"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;User Interface&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;1. Highlight Active&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the active (upgraded to CONNECT Edition) model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;2. Highlight&amp;nbsp;Reference&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the reference (original v8i)&amp;nbsp;model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0001"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0002"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;&lt;a id="A0003"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;User Interface&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;1. Highlight Active&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the active (upgraded to CONNECT Edition) model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;2. Highlight&amp;nbsp;Reference&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the reference (original v8i)&amp;nbsp;model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;Isolate Selected&lt;br /&gt;This option allows isolating rebar selected from the list in the model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;User Interface&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;1. Highlight Active&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the active (upgraded to CONNECT Edition) model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td width="312"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/3583.pastedimage1565355303885v1.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;2. Highlight&amp;nbsp;Reference&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the reference (original v8i)&amp;nbsp;model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td width="312"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/4111.pastedimage1565355820360v5.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;Isolate Selected&lt;br /&gt;This option allows isolating rebar selected from the list in the model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/7080.pastedimage1565356041718v7.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;4. Fit Selected&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;This option allows fitting the view on the rebar selected from the list.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/1258.pastedimage1565356113066v10.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;5.&amp;nbsp;Export to CSV&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;This option allows&amp;nbsp;exporting the rebar difference list to a csv file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/0245.pastedimage1565356156504v11.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:150%;"&gt;Workflow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:150%;"&gt;Known Differences&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;Case 1.1 Beam Main Bars and Stirrups&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;Location Difference, Geometry Difference, Fixed v8i Bug&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;User Interface&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;1. Highlight Active&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the active (upgraded to CONNECT Edition) model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td width="312"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/3583.pastedimage1565355303885v1.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;2. Highlight&amp;nbsp;Reference&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the reference (original v8i)&amp;nbsp;model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td width="312"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/4111.pastedimage1565355820360v5.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;Isolate Selected&lt;br /&gt;This option allows isolating rebar selected from the list in the model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/7080.pastedimage1565356041718v7.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;4. Fit Selected&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;This option allows fitting the view on the rebar selected from the list.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/1258.pastedimage1565356113066v10.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;5.&amp;nbsp;Export to CSV&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;This option allows&amp;nbsp;exporting the rebar difference list to a csv file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/0245.pastedimage1565356156504v11.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;6.&amp;nbsp;Reason Code Information&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;This is a link to the page containing&amp;nbsp;explanations of the possible differences between upgraded and original models.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/8765.pastedimage1565356291428v12.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:150%;"&gt;Workflow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:150%;"&gt;Known Differences&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;Case 1.1 Beam Main Bars and Stirrups&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;Location Difference, Geometry Difference, Fixed v8i Bug&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres. During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances. This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions. When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files. Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;The Rebar Comparison Key-ins:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Createattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Removeattachment:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to remove the referenced RebarComparison dgn which is added by using key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison create attachment&amp;rsquo;. This key-in only removes the corresponding RebarComparison dgn file out of all referenced files if there are any attached already.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Rebar Comparison Showdiff:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison file, attach it as a reference, will do the comparison of rebars in reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar, if any, with possible reason.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;"&gt;User Interface&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;1. Highlight Active&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the active (upgraded to CONNECT Edition) model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit;"&gt;2. Highlight&amp;nbsp;Reference&lt;br /&gt;This option allows highlighting the upgraded rebar object in the reference (original v8i)&amp;nbsp;model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:150%;"&gt;Introduction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;A lot has changed since the last release of v8i version of ProStructres.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;During this time product was improved and minor defects regarding bar location in various tools was adjusted to make the solution more intuitive and straightforward. Most of those fixes have to do with cover distances.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;This means that when upgrading v8i files to CONNECT Edition, main bar location might be slightly shifted, and stirrups/ties might change their dimensions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;When the tool is executed it will show a list of bars that are different compared to the original v8i model. From there users can highlight specific bars, investigate the difference, review possible difference reason, adjust it in CONNECT Edition model and update its status.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Listed below are all the known cases where upgraded models might be different from the original files.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Where possible, the solution to make models identical was also described.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;This key-in is used to create the RebarComparison dgn file and attach the same as the reference file in the model. It will not compare the dgn files but will allow users to check for differences in the model manually.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-55/8765.pastedimage1565356291428v12.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;Workflow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open the V8i generation dgn file in ProStructures CONNECT Edition Update3.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;During file opening, select the option to make a backup of dgn file before upgrading it. (It is necessary to have the backup file to use Rebar Comparison Tool).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Once the dgn is opened, open the key-in dialog and run the key-in &amp;lsquo;rebar comparison showdiff&amp;rsquo;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It will ask to select the dgn file for comparison. Select the backup copy of the original dgn file.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Once the comparison file is selected, a &amp;lsquo;__RebarComparison&amp;rsquo; dgn file will be created and attached as a reference in the master file automatically. Then, it will compare the rebar in the reference file and master file and will list out the differences in rebar with possible reasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;After closing the Rebar Comparison dialog, the reference file will be removed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Known Differences&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Case 1.1 Beam Main Bars and Stirrups&lt;br /&gt;Location Difference, Geometry Difference, Fixed v8i Bug&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;V8i Defect: Incorrect cover values in v8i.&lt;br /&gt;Fixed in CONNECT Edition, affecting the Stirrups leg lengths and Main Bar Location.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;v8i&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;CE&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
