Added:

• Labelled sections are preserved when pasting files.

• Incorrect reference was removed from steel bar detailed results.

• Sway buckling mode of a steel bar buckling length is considered in the calculation of the equivalent uniform moment factors (Cmy, Cmz).
• DWG export did not consider correctly the window settings in some cases.
• The state of the Manage note-window was not refreshed when "Display only visible notes" was checked.
