Trimble Novapoint Help has moved to help.trimble.com!
This update also embeds an update of Quadri for Windows.
Release date: 25.06.2026
Visit our pages regarding compatibility breaks and known issues for more info on those topics.
Expanded Project Ownership Support: Previously, QfW could not be used in projects where the Shared Object Model was not owned by an account with a Quadri Business Premium license. This restriction has now been removed. QfW now supports all projects with an activated Shared Object Model, regardless of the owner's license tier. Access is now determined solely by the license tier of the signed-in user. This improvement relates to the Desktop Application Access section in the Simplified Shared Object Model Activation in Trimble Connect product update bulletin.

NOTE: As part of Novapoint 2025.4 an IFC Feature Catalogue is released on Quadri for Windows.
When starting Quadri with the Novapoint extension it does no discriminate on the feature catalogue in use on the project.
Because of this, Novapoint will be available on these projects also.
For Novapoint we have some templates prepared and we are continously improving the support in our tools, but they are in BETA mode and not intended for production.
With the release of Novapoint 2026 it will only be compatible with Trimble Drawing 2026.
For Novapoint 2026.4 we recommend to use Trimble Drawing 2026 v.3522 for best compatibility.
From Novapoint 2026.4 the software supports AutoCAD 2027. Because of changes in Novapoint we have a separate installation of Novapoint to support AutoCAD 2027. The installation is named with the extension "ac27".
