New sketch features:
|
||||
* New intersection boolean operation for solid models.
|
||||
* New groups, revolution and helical extrusion.
|
||||
* Extrude, lathe, translate and rotate groups can use the "assembly"
|
||||
boolean operation, to increase performance.
|
||||
* The solid model of extrude and lathe groups can be suppressed,
|
||||
for splitting a single model in multiple parts to export,
|
||||
or if only the generated entities are desired, without the mesh.
|
||||
* Translate and rotate groups can create n-dimensional arrays using
|
||||
the "difference" and "assembly" boolean operations.
|
||||
* A new sketch in workplane group can be created based on existing workplane.
|
||||
* TTF text request has two additional points on the right side, which allow
|
||||
constraining the width of text.
|
||||
* Image requests can now be created, similar to TTF text requests.
|
||||
This replaces the "style → background image" feature.
|
||||
* Irrelevant points (e.g. arc center point) are not counted when estimating
|
||||
the bounding box used to compute chord tolerance.
|
||||
* When adding a constraint which has a label and is redundant with another
|
||||
constraint, the constraint is added as a reference, avoiding an error.
|
||||
* Datum points can be copied and pasted.
|
||||
* "Split Curves at Intersection" can now split curves at point lying on curve,
|
||||
not just at intersection of two curves.
|
||||
* Property browser now shows amount of degrees of freedom in group list.
|
||||
It also shows a yellow "err" if the sketch has problems (e.g. self
|
||||
intersecting) that would propagate in subsequent groups.
|
||||
* It is now possible to press "g" to toggle construction on new objects while
|
||||
they are still being drawn.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
* When creating a constraint, if an exactly identical constraint already
|
||||
exists, it is now selected instead of adding a redundant constraint.
|
||||
* It is now possible to turn off automatic creation of horizontal/vertical
|
||||
constraints on line segments.
|

||||
showing all lines (on top of shaded mesh), stippling occluded lines
|
||||
or not drawing them at all.
|
||||
* The "Show/hide outlines" button is now independent from "Show/hide edges".
|
||||
* "View | Darken Inactive Solids" added. When turned off and a "sketch in plane"

|
||||
changes, "Analyze → Center of Mass".
|
||||

|
||||
* When entities are selected, "Zoom to fit" zooms to fit only these
|
||||
entities and not the entire sketch.
|
||||
* Zero-length edges are reported with a "zero-length error", not
|
||||
"points not all coplanar".
|
||||
|
||||
New constraint features:
|
||||
* Height of the font used for drawing constraint labels can be changed.
|
||||
* New constraint, length difference, placed with J.
|
||||
(Patch by Peter Ruevski)
|
||||
* Horizontal/vertical constraints are automatically added if a line segment
|
||||
is close enough to being horizontal/vertical. This can be disabled by
|
||||
holding Ctrl.
|
||||
* Reference dimensions and angles can be placed with Shift+D and Shift+N.
|
||||
* Copying and pasting entities duplicates any constraints that only involve
|
||||
entities in the clipboard, as well as selected comments.
|
||||
* Diameter constraints can be shown as radius.
|
||||
* The "pi" identifier can be used in expressions.
|
||||
* Constraint labels can be snapped to grid.
|
||||
* Integer angles are displayed without trailing zeroes.
|
||||
* Angle constraints have proper reference lines and arrowheads.
|
||||
* Extension lines are drawn for point-line distance constraints.

New solver features:
|
||||
* Sketches with redundant and unsolvable constraints are distinguished.
|
||||
* New group setting, "allow redundant constraints". Note that it makes
|
||||
the solver less stable.

|

|

New rendering and styling features:
|
||||
* New line style parameter: stippling, based on ISO 128.
|
||||
* Outlines of solids can be drawn in a particular style (by default, thick
|
||||
lines) controlled by the "Show outline of solid model" button.
|
||||
* Occluded edges can be drawn in a particular style (by default, stippled
|
||||
with short dashes) controlled by the "Show hidden lines" button.
|
||||
* Solids can be made transparent.
|

|
||||
|
||||
New export/import features:
|
||||
* The old "import" command (for .slvs files) is renamed to "link".
|
||||
* If a linked .slvs file is not found, first the relative path recorded
|
||||
in the .slvs file is checked and then the absolute path; this is
|
||||
an inversion of the previously used order. If it is still not found,
|
||||
a dialog appears offering to locate it.
|
||||
* DXF and DWG files can be imported, with point-coincident, horizontal and
|
||||
vertical constraints automatically inferred from geometry, and distance
|
||||
and angle constraints created when a dimension placed against geometry
|
||||
exists.
|
||||
* Triangle mesh can be exported for viewing in the browser through WebGL.
|
||||
* Export dialogs remember the last file format used, and preselect it.
|
||||
* Exported DXF files have exact circles, arcs and splines instead of
|
||||
a piecewise linear approximation (unless hidden line removal was needed).
|
||||
* Exported DXF files preserve color and line thickness.
|
||||
* In exported DXF files, constraints are represented as DXF dimensions,
|
||||
instead of piecewise linear geometry.
|
||||
* When exporting 2d views, overlapping lines are removed.

Other new features:
|
||||
* Native Linux (GTK 2 and GTK 3) and Mac OS X ports.
|
||||
* Automatically save and then restore sketches if SolveSpace crashes.
|
||||
(Patch by Marc Britten)
|
||||
* Unicode is supported everywhere (filenames, group names, TTF text,
|
||||
comments), although RTL scripts and scripts making heavy use of ligatures
|
||||
are not rendered correctly.
|
||||
* The vector font is grid-fitted when rendered on screen to make it easier
|
||||
to read regardless of its size.
