BlockDesigner 0.4.25

Copy, cut and paste blocks, and duplicate as you drag: hold Ctrl when you grab the Move, Rotate or Scale gizmo and you move a copy, leaving the original where it was.

Downloads

File Use it if…
BlockDesigner-0.4.25.msi You want a normal install. It installs for all users into C:\Program Files\BlockDesigner (Windows asks for admin). Installing over an earlier version upgrades it in place.
BlockDesigner-0.4.25.exe Only for updating from 0.4.6 or earlier: their updater installs it for you. For new installs, use the .msi.
BlockDesigner-0.4.25-portable.zip You don't want to install anything. Unzip it anywhere and run BlockDesigner.exe.

0.4.2 and later update to this by themselves. 0.4.0 and 0.4.1 need a one-time install by hand: download the .msi above.

Windows Smart App Control: this build still isn't code-signed. On PCs with Smart App Control switched on, Windows may block BlockDesigner from starting after an install or update.

New

  • Copy, cut and paste blocks (default Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V; change them in Settings › Keybinds). Copy takes the selected blocks with their contents (chests, signs…) and any selected mobs. Cut copies them and deletes them in one undo step; blocks in locked layers are copied but stay.
  • Pasting follows the mouse. After Ctrl+V the copied blocks hang under the cursor like an import: R or Alt+scroll turns them, a click or Enter puts them into the active layer, Esc or right-click cancels. The pasted blocks are then selected, ready for the Move gizmo.
  • Copy, Cut and Paste in the Shift+right-click menu when blocks are selected or the clipboard holds something.
  • Duplicate as you drag. Hold Ctrl as you press an arrow, square, the centre or a ring of the Move, Rotate or Scale gizmo: the selected blocks (or the selected layers) are copied and the drag moves, turns or scales the copy. It's one undo step, and right-click or Esc during the drag takes the copy away again.

Changed

  • BlockEdit shares the clipboard. //copy and //cut fill the same clipboard as Ctrl+C, so //paste works after Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V after //copy.
  • Right-click cancels placing an import or a paste, as Esc does.
