v0.7.3

• The Toggle Translucency context-menu item is now Change Transparency (50% / 100%) with a cube icon, matching the standalone ChangeTransparency add-in.
• Rolling the history marker onto an item inside a collapsed group now lands on that item (the group auto-expands) instead of redirecting the roll to the whole group.
• Selecting a grouped feature in Fusion now reliably highlights its timeline row, even when Fusion's entity token differs between refresh and selection.

Install: download VerticalTimeline-v0.7.3.zip, unzip the VerticalTimeline folder into your Fusion API/AddIns directory.

v0.7.2

Icon quality improvements.

• Crisp icons on Retina/HiDPI. Browser and menu icons now load Fusion's high-resolution (2x) artwork instead of the 16px source, so they're sharp instead of blurry.
• Theme-aware icons. Icons follow the palette's light/dark theme — Fusion's light-foreground (-dark) artwork on a dark palette, normal artwork on a light palette — so fine details like the extrude arrow stay visible in both themes.

Install: download VerticalTimeline-v0.7.2.zip, unzip into your Fusion API/AddIns folder (the unzipped folder must be named VerticalTimeline).

v0.7.1

• Delete / Delete all features after History Marker show the red Delete icon again.
• Roll Timeline Marker Here shows its proper timeline-marker glyph instead of the roll-forward arrow.
• Long context-menu items wrap instead of stretching the menu across the whole panel.
• Added docs/ICONS.md documenting how Fusion's icon resources are resolved (Fusion vs Neutron trees, the macOS/Windows path split).

v0.7.0

• Draggable history-marker bar: drag the marker (the silver line with the grip on the right, between the active and rolled-back items) onto a row to roll the marker there, SolidWorks-style.
• New Toggle Translucency context-menu item makes a feature's bodies 50% translucent (and back), like Fusion's Opacity Control.
• Fully constrained sketches now show Fusion's own lock-badge sketch icon.
• Fixed the sheet-metal component icon (it had been showing the generic placeholder); the add-in can now load Fusion's SVG-only icons too.

v0.6.0

• Fixed group collapse: only the last group's collapse toggle used to work.
• Rolled-back items now offer Delete all features after History Marker in the right-click menu.
• Double-click the name to rename; double-click elsewhere on the row to edit. A single click now selects (and selects the feature in the Fusion GUI too).
• Multi-selected rows are pushed to Fusion as a real selection, so commands such as Mirror can consume the picked features.
• Errored/warned items are highlighted red/yellow, with the message on hover.
• Fixed a crash when selecting a position Snapshot.

v0.5.0

Performance: O(1) GUI-selection highlight, and the palette refresh reads each feature once instead of several redundant Fusion API calls per feature.

VerticalTimeline v0.4.1

Bugfix release.

• Fixed a crash (error dialog) when closing a pure assembly file, caused by reading a construction plane's definition while the document was being torn down.
• Fixed a crash (KeyError) when removing a component, caused by the timeline still referencing the component after the parent-component map had been rebuilt without it.
• Hardened the palette refresh and click handlers so a design that is momentarily out of sync (during a file close or a mutating command) no longer produces a traceback dialog.

After installing, turn the timeline on with File → View → Toggle Vertical Timeline.

VerticalTimeline v0.4.0

New right-click context menu, multi-select, and grouping.

What's new

• Right-click context menu on timeline items: Roll Timeline Marker Here, Edit, Rename, Suppress/Unsuppress, Delete. Right-clicking no longer rolls the marker automatically.
• Multi-select rows — Cmd/Ctrl-click to toggle, Shift-click for a range — and Create Group from the selection, plus bulk Suppress / Unsuppress / Delete.
• Menu items show Fusion's own icons where available.
• Removed the version number from the palette title.

• Correctly select and edit primitive features (Box, Cylinder, …) inside components
• Highlight the timeline row matching the feature selected in the Fusion GUI
