| Defect | Description |
|---|---|
| DRAW-18197 | Draw now accurately displays stereogenic labels during structural modifications |
| DRAW-18118 | An option to determine bad stereo using either IUPAC convention or BIOVIA chemical representation now exists. The Default is the BIOVIA chemical representation |
| DRAW-18130 | Sulfoxides can now be assigned enhanced stereo chemistry |
| DRAW-18179 | Draw now shows the reagent name with subscript properly |
| DRAW-18188 | Draw now supports the newly added access control to the PLP Platform based centralized library. The Shared scope supports a user group access control when the library is created |
| DRAW-18214 | Draw now displays the "Bad stereo" warning message for incorrect stereo structures |
| DRAW-15312 | The current setting restricts users to setting a font size of 12 or below in the structure view. This provides with some flexibility while preventing the overlap issue that occurs when the font size is set to 20 |
| DRAW-17662 | Draw now make a ring closure when drawing a 6-membered ring bond by bond using All-purpose tool |
| DRAW-18055 | Draw now displays sugar as not modified while creating the structure from HELM strings |
