Features

🌈 Graphics

• SSAO (screen space ambient occlusion) → shadow along ground edges and inside corners

• general lighting and shadows (ground shadows to come soon)

• cursors and comments now occlude (ie. if a comment is on the side of a wall and you’re viewing the opposite side the comment bubble won’t be shown because it’s behind the wall)

• there’s now a grid on the modelling plane (more improvements to the grid re:size and snapping to come in the future)

• improved object selection highlighting → selected objects now get an outline that is visible through other objects so you can always see your selection

📄 Boards

• Pen tool → there’s a new button in the boards button bar. The pen tool allows users to create rigid shapes that can be enclosed

• You can now rotate shapes in boards

• You can now edit the radius of a shape on a board

• Drag and drop views onto boards → thanks Gavin for requesting this!

• Cloud stroke style for objects on boards

📄 Sheets

• You can now set pre-determined sizes for sheets on boards

⭐ Other things

• The main menu is now a lot more intractable and stable. Nested menu’s remain open when you hover off them, a really nice quality of life improvement

• When placing a door or window in plan views you can determine which side of the wall the door/window goes on by hovering closer to the side you want it placed on

• The metrics sidebar is now functional → it is still using hard coded dummy data and not yet connected the model (coming soon!)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Hotkey fixes, we noticed some inconsistencies with when hotkeys were being activated.

• Previously you could only draw shapes on boards by dragging down and to the right. This has been fixed and now shapes can be drawn in any direction

• Zooming while hovering over the app UI has been disabled (zooming on the canvas is still enabled of course)

• You can now add doors and windows in plan and elevation views!

• Push pull is generally more robust. Previously hovering on surfaces could be finicky, now it’s rock solid

• Previously comment threads would not scroll on boards. They are now scrollable

• Open comments on boards sometimes ended up behind shapes. Comments now always show on top of all objects on boards
