v0.11.1

0.11.0 was left staged on the registry by a failed publish and can never be claimed. This
release carries its contents unchanged; no 0.11.0 exists on npm.

Added

• A clipping plane can be turned into a drawing from the clipping tool's menu. The new view appears
  under Layers -> Drawings -> Custom, previews instantly, generates its lines on demand and
  exports to DXF like any elevation; deleting the source plane disposes it. ElevationEntry gains
  an optional label (a display name overriding the translated direction) and planeKey (a
  back-reference to the source plane), and ElevationsTool gains addFromPlane(plane, label).
• ClippingPlanes now publishes its planes: a planes accessor returning ClippingPlaneInfo[]
  (key, normal, point, all copies), an onChanged event carrying the new list on every add,
  delete, undo/redo and drag, and planeAtCursor() for the plane under the pointer.
• FloorplanTool.resetAll() and ElevationsTool.resetAll(): building-scoped teardown that
  deactivates the view, disposes every drawing and resets the true-north angle, while keeping the
  tools subscribed to model load and delete so the same instance serves the next building.
• Hide from view in the BIM viewport right-click menu, for a loaded model, a DXF drawing, a
  point cloud or a splat. Each kind hides the way its own sidebar row does, and the visibility is
  persisted, so the row and the scene cannot drift apart.
• A Splat budget slider in the Gaussian splats settings panel, the splat analogue of the
  point budget. SplatRenderSettings gains lodSplatCount, and the new SplatSettings.splatBudget
  key is in all three catalogues.
• Gaussian splats are now placed with the crosshair on upload, like 3D models and DXF
  drawings, instead of always landing at the world origin. The position persists to the same
  pointCloudTransform column the placement gizmo already writes.
• In BIM placing mode, Enter drops the file at the world origin and Escape cancels.
  Escape previously worked only when re-placing an already-uploaded file, and there was no
  keyboard way to accept the origin.
• uniqueFileName(name, existingNames) in @collabdt/core/utils — the point-cloud-only
  uniquePointCloudName now delegates to it.
• Gaussian splat support in the BIM viewer. .ply, .spz, .splat, .ksplat and .sog
  files upload, render and place alongside the BIM model, using
  Spark (@sparkjsdev/spark, MIT) as a new runtime dependency. Splats
  are a new 'splat-file' type listed inside the existing Models sidebar section — no new
  section — and are moved, rotated and uniformly scaled with the existing placement gizmo.
  A Gaussian splats settings panel exposes per-splat opacity, detail (maxSh) and a debug
  tint, plus the renderer-wide 2D-splat mode and blur.
  New modules: components/viewers/shared/splat/*, components/viewers/bim/src/Splats/*,
  components/viewers/bim/src/Placement/targets/splatTarget and useSplatTarget.
• PlacementEditor.registerPickSource() / unregisterPickSource(), so more than one kind of
  scene object can offer itself to the placement raycast without the last caller of setup()
  clobbering the rest.
• Loaded 3D models, DXF drawings and splats now hover and select in the BIM viewer, the
  same as a fragment element, and a click on empty space clears the selection. A new
  Selection component takes ownership of the canvas pointer from the Highlighter (which
  gains an ownsPointer flag for exactly this handoff) and picks the nearest hit across
  fragments, scene objects and splats through one shared raycast. Point clouds are picked but
  deliberately excluded from hover and selection. New modules: Selection/index.ts,
  Selection/sceneObjectHighlight.ts (the cyan overlay for a model or drawing, reparented
  under its target so it inherits root motion and skeletal animation), Selection/selectionState.ts,
  lib/pickAtPointer.ts and lib/highlightMaterials.ts (the hover/selected materials shared
  between the highlighter and the new overlay).
• BimSplats gains setHighlight() / highlightOf(), tinting a splat for hover or selection
  without disturbing the recolor the user picked, and boundsOf(), its world-space bounding
  box derived from the splat's own centres (SplatMesh has no geometry for Box3.setFromObject
  to walk).
• The properties panel now shows the selected model, drawing or splat's file record as an
  Identity Data group (name, type, extension, size, upload date, description) and an editable
  Position section (position, rotation, and scale where the target supports it), reusing the
  same placement gizmo as the sidebar. The element list now sits below the property groups.
  New modules: propertiesMenu/src/fileIdentityGroup.ts, propertiesMenu/src/PositionSection.tsx
  and Placement/placementAxes.ts. New PropertiesMenu i18n namespace in en, es and fr.
• Fit now frames the selected splat or object instead of falling back to the whole scene.
• An attribution control in the BIM viewer, crediting Three.js, That Open Company, Potree
  and Spark with a link to each project, behind a Powered by: label that useIsMobile()
  drops below 768px to keep the pill off a phone's viewport. It is a copy of MapLibre's
  compact attribution control — same geometry, icon, typography and bottom-right placement —
  so the two viewers credit their dependencies identically. New module
  components/viewers/bim/src/BimAttribution and a new BimAttribution i18n namespace in
  en, es and fr. The That Open renderer's own logo is switched off now that the control
  carries the credit.

Changed

• Turning a clipping plane into a drawing is now an explicit two-step pick. The clipping menu item
  appears once at least one plane exists, arms a picking mode with an on-screen instruction, and the
  next click on a plane creates the drawing; Escape cancels. The Custom tab under Layers ->
  Drawings only appears once a custom drawing exists, and a custom drawing can be renamed from its
  row — the name is session-only and reaches the DXF export. ElevationsTool gains
  rename(id, label), and ViewSectionList gains optional renameLabel / onRename props.
• The BIM viewer's empty-state card now offers every 3D file type — BIM model, point cloud, splat,
  3D model and CAD — instead of .ifc and .frag alone, and routes the picked file through the
  same intake as the sidebar, so a point cloud lands in the point-cloud path and a model in the
  model path. The accept list is generated from ACCEPT_FOR_TYPE, not hand-written.
• The empty-state card is shown only when a building holds no 3D file at all. A building with a
  point cloud or a 3D model but no BIM model now opens straight into the scene.
• Opening a floorplan no longer waits for its vector lines. Activation now stops once the model is
  recoloured, clipped and framed, which is immediate; the lines are generated by a new Generate
  lines action on the active drawing card, and a storey whose lines already exist still shows them
  at once. FloorplanTool gains generateLines(id), and ViewSectionList gains the optional
  generateLinesLabel / canGenerateLines / onGenerateLines props.
• Opening an elevation no longer waits for its vector lines either. The clipped model is shown
  immediately as the preview and the lines come from the same Generate lines action;
  ElevationsTool gains generateLines(id). The whole-model cull moved out of activation and into
  the line pass, where it belongs — it exists so the projection paints onto an empty scene.
• Section-box drag handles are now coloured by axis — X red, Y green, Z blue, following
  three.js's own axis convention — instead of all six being blue. The wireframe shell is
  unchanged.
• The BIM model now starts loading before point clouds, splats, 3D models and DXF drawings.
  The others still load in parallel with each other, they just no longer compete with the
  fragment fetch for the first bytes. BimState gains fragmentsStarted, with the
  SET_FRAGMENTS_STARTED action.
• resolveViewportTarget() takes a splat hit and can return kind: 'splat'.
• BimState gains splatIds, with the SET_SPLAT_IDS and TOGGLE_SPLAT actions.
• BimState gains sceneSelection, with the SET_SCENE_SELECTION action; SelectionSync
  publishes it alongside the existing fragment selection.
• FragmentHit gains an optional localId, so a fragment pick can carry which element was hit.
• useViewportContextMenu() now requires a splatIds: string[] third argument, the store's
  splat-visibility list, so it can close the menu when its splat is switched off.
• Splat placements persist to the existing File.pointCloudTransform column, whose shape
  already matched. No schema change.
• The canvas shows a crosshair cursor while "pick pivot" waits for its double-click, for every
  kind of placement target rather than splats alone.
• Gaussian splats now build a level-of-detail tree. SparkRenderer enabled LOD already, but
  the meshes never opted in, so there was nothing to traverse; they are now created with
  lod: true. Left unset, the budget stays Spark's own per-device target (500K on WebXR up
  to 2.5M on desktop) rather than a hard-coded constant.
• camera-controls (>=3.1.2) is now declared as an optional peerDependency. It was always
  required at runtime by @thatopen/components, which imports it directly; core just never said
  so, and a clean install without it fails to load the BIM viewer.

Migration

• A consumer that installs @thatopen/components must also install camera-controls. Package
  managers that warn on unmet peers were already asking for it, so most deployments already have
  it and need no change.
• SplatRenderSettings gains an optional lodSplatCount. settings() now reports the budget
  in force rather than undefined, so a consumer reading it back gets Spark's per-device
  default until something overrides it. No action needed unless you assert on the exact object.
• The pin for a file that is still uploading now draws a ring that fills to the upload
  percentage, with its own icon in the middle, instead of an indeterminate spinner. Phases that
  report no percentage (conversion) spin a short arc, so the ring never sits frozen at 0%.

Migration

• The BimLoadingState.noBIMLoaded message key is renamed to BimLoadingState.no3DLoaded, and
  BimLoadingState.helpText is reworded. A deployment overriding either key must rename its
  override.

Changed

• Every placement edit now reports itself the same way, whatever the object is. A finished move,
  rotation or scale raises a toast naming the action — "Moved", "Rotated", "Scaled" — for 3D models,
  DXF drawings, point clouds and splats alike; models and drawings previously saved and failed in
  silence, while clouds and splats each carried their own copy of the toast and always said
  "position" whichever handle you had dragged. A Done that moved nothing, and a Cancel, now write
  nothing and say nothing. PlacementEditor.accept() and cancel() return a promise, skip a
  commit that would store what is already stored, and trigger onCommitted once the write settles,
  with an added ok telling success from failure. The Placement.saved message is replaced by
  movedFile, rotatedFile and scaledFile.

Fixed

• A 3D model's or DXF drawing's scale now survives a reload. It is stored in File.scale, which
  nothing was writing: the placement gizmo committed only position and yaw, the upload card's scale
  was dropped on confirm, and the API adapter left the column out of every file it returned, so a
  scaled object came back at 1 (or, for a DXF, at its millimetre default). Point clouds and splats
  were never affected — they carry their scale inside pointCloudTransform. uploadFile takes an
  optional scale, and useBimFileIntake().submit takes it as a third argument, routing it into
  the transform for a splat and into the column for everything else.
• The 3D model now follows the camera into a floorplan or elevation instead of staying frozen behind
  the drawing at a viewpoint that could not line up with it. The effect composer's base and
  ambient-occlusion passes keep the camera they were built with, so switching the world camera to an
  orthographic projection left them shading the scene through the perspective camera the controls no
  longer drive, while the edge pass read the live camera and drew its lines somewhere else entirely.
  The composer is now repointed at the world camera whenever the projection changes.
• Entering a floorplan or elevation no longer leaves the 3D view frozen where it was. camera-controls
  advances an animated move only on rendered frames and the BIM renderer draws on demand, so the
  camera transition never ran and its promise never settled — which also left activation awaiting
  fitToBox forever, so the drawing's progress bar never finished. Camera transitions in the drawing
  views now keep the renderer awake until they complete, the way walk mode already did.
• A file hidden from the BIM viewport right-click menu now shows as hidden in the sidebar's file
  list. The list's row state kept a local toggle forever, so a visibility change written by anyone
  else was ignored for any row it had already seen.
• The model now lines up under a floorplan's or elevation's lines. First Person navigation and an
  orthographic lens each refuse the other — CameraNavigation.canUse rejects First Person while
  orthographic, and OBC's ProjectionManager.setOrthoCamera returns silently while in First
  Person — so opening a drawing from walk mode left the camera in perspective. Aimed straight down
  it draws the flat projected lines correctly while giving the model receding faces, which read as
  the two being misaligned. A drawing view now leaves First Person through CameraNavigation
  (so its walk loop and published state stay in step, rather than being changed behind its back),
  verifies the projection actually switched, restores the previous mode on exit once the lens is
  back to perspective, and warns instead of silently drawing a perspective plan.
• Floorplan and elevation drawings no longer stay in the scene after switching buildings without
  first exiting the view, including when a drawing is still being generated. Nothing was scoped to
  the building: the viewer's components outlive it, and freeing a drawing depended on a model-delete
  event that an in-flight projection could race past, orphaning a finished drawing that no teardown
  path could still reach.
• A building with no BIM model could only be given .ifc and .frag files from the viewer's
  empty-state card, which was the only upload affordance it offered.
• The BIM model is visible again behind a floorplan or elevation drawing, so the white slab fill and
  the grey cut regions read under the lines. Hiding every 3D root also hid the fragment models,
  which are the drawing's fill; point clouds, splats and loaded 3D models are still hidden.
• A floorplan's projected lines no longer pick up the ceiling of the storey below. The cut volume
  was 3 m deep from a plane 1.5 m above the floor, reaching a metre past the lower clip plane; it
  now bottoms out exactly at that plane, and the two are derived from shared constants so they
  cannot drift apart again.
• Dragging the placement gizmo while placing a freshly uploaded file now updates the rotation,
  position and scale fields live. The gizmos on the upload path never emitted a change back into
  the placement card, so the numbers and the object diverged until Enter or Escape. Re-placing an
  already-uploaded file was already correct and is unchanged.
• Fit now frames a selected gaussian splat instead of the whole scene. Switching splats to
  Spark's LOD moved every splat centre into lodSplats, leaving getBoundingBox reporting an
  empty box, so BimSplats.boundsOf returned null and the camera fell through to fitting
  everything. Bounds are now read from the LOD centres when the mesh's own array is empty, and an
  empty box is no longer cached.
• The 3D scene no longer shows through a floorplan or elevation drawing. The BIM model was only
  clipped to a slab-thick band rather than hidden, and point clouds, splats and loaded 3D models
  were not touched at all, so all of it stayed on screen behind the drawing — plainly in
  perspective once the camera moved. ChromeController now hides every piece of 3D content while
  a drawing is active and restores exactly the visibility each root had on exit, alongside the
  cursor, highlighter, gizmo and lighting it already managed. The drawing carries its own cut
  lines and fills, so the plan itself is unaffected.
• Clipping planes and the clipping box now cut gaussian splats, which previously ignored
  them. Splats render through Spark's own shader, outside three.js's clipping pass, so the
  cut is applied with Spark's SplatEdit signed-distance fields; splat meshes are now
  created with editable: true. One scene-level edit cuts every splat, including any loaded
  after the planes were set. SplatEngine gains setClippingPlanes(planes): Spark collects
  an edit by instanceof, so the edit has to be built from the same dynamically imported
  copy of Spark the loader already owns. The planes are reconciled by value once per frame,
  not on onClippingPlanesUpdated alone — OBC drags a section plane by mutating the same
  THREE.Plane in place and fires no event, so anything holding a reference follows for free
  while a snapshot silently freezes. Unchanged planes early-out, so the per-frame cost is a
  string compare.
• Deleting from the viewport context menu now unloads the file from the scene and reports the
  delete, matching the sidebar. The menu deletes four kinds of target but only ever removed the
  one held by the scene-object registry, so a BIM model, point cloud or splat stayed on screen
  after its record was gone; it also showed no success toast. Both paths now go through one
  useSceneUnload().
• The hover and selection highlight on an animated 3D model no longer freezes at the bind pose
  while the model moves. The overlay is a clone, so a node an AnimationMixer drives left it
  behind; each cloned mesh now claims its source's world matrix before it renders.
• Adding a 3D model or splat from the sidebar now opens the placement crosshair, the same as
  adding it from the toolbar. The two entry points had separate implementations and only the
  toolbar consulted the placement rules; both now route through one shared decision.
• The "add file" card reappeared after dropping a file into the scene. Finishing a placement
  cleared the tool but not the panel's own adding mode, so the drop target came straight back.
• A file still uploading now shows a spinning placeholder pin rather than its final icon, and
  a splat's placeholder is removed once the real splat takes over.
• Loaded 3D models now cast and receive shadows, like BIM elements. Flat DXF drawings and
  scene markers are deliberately excluded. Gaussian splats and point clouds still cannot cast
  shadows — they render outside three.js's shadow pass.
• The BIM viewer's grid no longer appears and then disappears while the scene loads. It is
  created hidden; the Settings toggle turns it on.
• Uploading a file whose name is already taken now stores it as plan (1).dxf instead of a
  second plan.dxf. Duplicate names previously bound scene objects to the wrong database
  record, because placement and the viewport menu resolve an object to its file by name.
• The viewport context menu stayed open, still anchored to a stale screen position or file,
  after a camera move, a file deletion, a file being hidden, or pressing Escape. It now closes
  on all four.
• A splat uploaded while the viewer was open stayed switched off until a reload. The seed only
  ran once per building, so a file that appeared afterwards was never added to splatIds; the
  reconcile now claims each splat id once and switches on any that arrives visible.
• Splats failed to load with Unknown file type. Assets are stored under an extensionless
  UUID, so Spark could not infer a decoder from the download URL and the streaming decoder was
  built before any bytes arrived. The type now comes from the file's extension column.
• "Edit position" on a splat switched it off instead of on: it asked the registry whether the
  splat was loaded, then dispatched TOGGLE_SPLAT, so a splat that was on but still loading
  was toggled away. It now asks the store, which is what the scene reconciles from.
• The viewport context menu could not place a splat — it had no 'splat' branch, so it built
  a model target whose object lookup never resolves a splat and the gizmo never appeared.

Removed

• Download is gone from the BIM file rows and the viewer context menu — it is no longer offered
  for plain files, loaded models or splats. Download remains available elsewhere in the files UI.
• dropsAtOrigin from the placement capabilities module. It was unreferenced, and its claim
  that splats are origin-only no longer describes the viewer.

Migration

• resolveViewportTarget() now requires a splat property on its input. Pass splat: null
  where there is no splat pick.
