Arcadia Release Notes: January 9th, 2026

Release version: 1-21-3-25

Category: New Features and Stability Improvements

This release focuses on improving schematic wire bend move, more autonomy for terminals in schematic for entry port identification with third-party applications, improvements in schematic editors, and improved validations, which improve user experience.

Improvements

NWF for terminals making entry port identification simpler – You can now define NWF for terminals within the component database. When a terminal is used as a connector, the NWF combines with the Pin ID to automatically generate the entry port value, simplifying identification, which will be useful in integration with third-party applications.

Fixes and Stability Improvements

Improved handling of blank rows in the schematic component editor. Empty rows no longer trigger validation issues, resulting in a smoother editing experience.
Wire editor defaults have been refined so material and gauge values are no longer automatically re-applied when a user intentionally clears them.
Improved drag-select and move behaviour when using shortcut keys, resulting in more accurate and predictable component movement.
Enhanced splice strip length logic in harness design. Strip length now prefers values from the Component Database over profiles, giving users greater control and improving accuracy in downstream reports.
