The PDFTron viewer now supports synchronized, side-by-side viewing by the Compare command in Meridian Power and in Meridian Explorer.

MRE-4706 A new client registry value UseExternalAutoVue has been added that, if set to 1 (default), will use AutoVue 3D if it was installed separately from the Meridian installation package. If this value is 0, AutoVue 3D will not be used.
MRE-4738 A new client registry value UseNativeCompareEngine has been added that, when set to 1 or absent, will always compare documents using the AutoVue viewer (if installed). If this value is 0 (default), documents are initially compared using the BlueCielo viewer. The user may then switch to the AutoVue viewer by clicking the Compare button in the viewer toolbar.
MRE-4865 A new Meridian web server registry value RemoveLinkAnnotations has been added that, when set to 1, removes hyperlink annotations from intermediate XOD files that are used to view documents with the PDFTron viewer. This setting is intended to improve the viewing performance of PDF files that contain thousands of hyperlinks that are not expected to be used.
MRE-4948 SolidWorks eDrawings 2018 is now supported.

MRE-5011

Redlines (annotations) created by the PDFTron viewer in Meridian Power and in Meridian Explorer are now exchanged in packages sent to Meridian Portal.
