·         DRAW-17508 - DrawBridge now supports large sketches and has improved its ability to read JSON object image byte arrays, allowing for the creation of higher-quality image files that are rendered on web pages

·         DRAW-17509 - DrawBridge now generate CHIME string as an output that can be consumed on the server side

·         DRAW-17513 - DrawBridge now has a UniqueId UUID, that is generated and used across the transactions

·         DRAW-17532 - Improved support of monomers with multi-atom leaving groups

·         DRAW-17566 - Draw now opens the Pipeline Pilot calculator results in the default browser instead of Internet Explorer

·         DRAW-17572 - The Draw sequence panel now displays the last updated timestamp of the central library

·         DRAW-17594 - Added support to search for natural analogues in the Sequence panel

·         DRAW-17601 - DrawBridge now generates IUPAC and SMILE strings as an output that can be consumed on the server side

·         DRAW-17607 - Draw now has option to generate IUPAC name in ASCII character set

·         DRAW-17609 - Added support for single residue search in sequence panel

·         DRAW-17641 - Draw now has separate options for generating InChi keys from structures. The first option "InChi Key" generates an InChi key, while the second option "InChi Key Search" generates an InChi key and performs a search

·         DRAW-17642 - Added a new toolbar button to align the structures to the center of the canvas

·         DRAW-17683 - Changed the Peptide seC HELM Monomer and AA Sec SCSR Template structure in Biovia global configuration files, with the addition of the side chain leaving group

·         DRAW-17689 - Draw can now create SCSR templates with multiple leaving groups on a single atom

·         DRAW-17726 - Enhanced the Manage Centralized Libraries dialog to allow rearranging items in the grid, sorting on columns, and clearing locally downloaded templates

·         DRAW-17727 - Enhanced the Manage Centralized Libraries dialog for downloading the central libraries either from the "User Only" or "All Users" profile

·         DRAW-1778 - Modified Save mol file dialog to accept Mol Name/Comment and also save this as part of MOL file content

·         DRAW-17592 - Enhanced the status bar for displaying validation messages while sketching a structure having unacceptable conditions like overlaps, violations of stereo rules, or exceeding valences

·         DRAW-17674 - BIOVIA Draw now support enhanced stereochemistry for cis-trans double bonds. You can assign these bonds to relative absolute, AND, and OR geometric stereogroups, in a similar way to assigning tetrahedral stereo atoms to relative stereogroups. The new enhanced stereogroups of cis-trans double bonds are stored in molfiles V3000 stereo collections, and are taken into account in molecular depictions, stereoisomer enumeration, and substructure and exact searches

Fixed Defects

·         DRAW-17746 - Draw now retains the chiral flag from a structure with MUL sgroups when saving or copying as molfile

·         DRAW-15923 - The molname and molcomment get copied while performing the "Copy As" functionality

·         DRAW-15929 - Potassium and Cesium carbonate structures will now be converted correctly via OpenEye

·         DRAW-16138 - Fixed corruption issues of stereochemistry in rxn files with polymer brackets

·         DRAW-16192 - Draw now can import Fasta sequence file when Centralized monomer library is configured
