layerling 1.153.0

• Hole pattern: holes slope through the wall (Discussion #942, PR #1510): The hole pattern cut its holes straight into the face. Slope through the wall tips every hole of a pattern on a flat face by -60 to 60 degrees; on a standing wall a positive slope puts the inner end higher, so rain runs back out. The hole keeps its own cross-section and shows a little longer on the face, both ends keep the margin, and through holes stop at the back of the wall behind each hole. Not with a counterbore, countersink or own shape. layerling_perforate_face takes holeTilt. Asked for by @uggyuggy, built by @js9986.

• Command search finds your custom shapes (Facebook): Ctrl+K found the shapes of the library by name, but not the ones you saved yourself under Custom shapes. Now typing a part of the name lists them as well ("Add custom shape: ..."), with their picture, from the browser and from the server, and Enter or a click puts the shape into the design exactly as a click in the shapes panel does (it hangs on the pointer when "click to place" is on). They show up only once something is typed, like the bodies of a design, and "custom" lists them all. Chapter 13 of the guide says so in all 16 languages; the new text is in 14.

• A save dialog that saves nothing offers a download (Discussion #1449): On some PCs the save dialog of Chrome and Edge hands back no file for most folders, even after one was picked, and the browser reports that the same way as Cancel. layerling then said "Nothing saved", but in Chrome and Edge a design could only be saved through that dialog. The message now has a Download instead button, which saves the design as a normal download into the Downloads folder, as Firefox does. This covers Export > LYL, Ctrl+S and Save as.

• The toolbar fits again when the control size changes (Discussion #1502): The toolbar folds the groups the window has no room for, but it only measured itself when the page loaded or the window changed width. Switching the control size under Workspace settings kept the folds of the size before: on Large the toolbar broke into two or three rows with room left over in the first, and on Small groups stayed folded that had room. It now fits again the moment the size changes, so it stays one row as long as folding allows.

• Rounding the rims of holes no longer fills a hole in (Issue #1503): Five round holes bundled and grouped with a body, their top rims rounded one after the other: after the third or fifth, one or more holes were gone, while the message read "Filleted 96 edges". A bundle made only of holes went to the edge tool as its mesh, so each round hole became a polygon of 96 flat strips, and on such rims the CAD kernel sometimes hands back a body that counts as valid but has a whole hole filled in. The edge tool now opens such a bundle into its holes, so they stay true circles and each rim is one edge. And a chamfer or fillet that loses a face it never touched is refused with a message to try a slightly smaller or larger size, instead of being applied. The message is in 14 languages.

• A workplane no longer looks like a second build plate (Issue #1512): A workplane set on a face or on the empty plate carried the printer's name and size like the real plate, which stays behind it in grey. Moved off to one side by a click on the plate, it looked like a second plate, and the warning that a body does not fit seemed to have no reason. The printer's name now stays on the real plate only. Alt+W, or the downward arrow below the eye in the view bar, puts the workplane back on the plate.

• Lid with a standard's thread: the panel says whether the body fits the neck (Issue #1482, PR #1499): With a standard's thread (PCO 1881, GL 45, Mason 70 ...) the cap is always made to the standard, but the body only gets the neck's thread when its top is that neck. That was said only afterwards, in the status bar, so a cylinder of the wrong size came out without a thread and without a reason. The Lid panel now measures the top of the selected body before, says how wide it is and how wide the neck must be, and whether the body gets the thread. For a cylinder, a tube or a ring standing upright, also hollowed, a button Fit the body to the neck sets its width to the neck and keeps its height. layerling_make_lid takes fitNeck.

• Breakaway base for standing pins (mail): On a printer whose bed moves, tall thin pins wobble loose or come out wavy at the foot. A new box under Printer play in the settings stands the fit test's pin on a thin plate, and Dowels on a breakaway base in the Split tool puts the loose dowels on one such plate. Each pin stands on a small nub in a socket a little wider than the pin, so the rim holds it without touching it, and it snaps off once printed. layerling_printer_play takes pinBase, layerling_split_objects takes dowelBase.

• Alt+D drops the selection as one piece (Discussion #1509): D drops every selected part on its own, so parts stacked on each other all landed on the plate. Alt+D moves them together by the distance that brings the lowest of them onto the workplane, so they keep their heights to each other; with Shift it is the top again. The shortcut list and the guide name it. Asked for by @uninteressant2026.

• Export: type the new name right away (Discussion #1507): When the export window opens, its file name field now has the focus with the name selected, so typing replaces it at once. Asked for by @uninteressant2026.

• The shapes button opens like the other menus (Discussion #1506): The cube on the shapes button had a plus; it now has the same tab with a chevron as the folded groups, turned up while the menu is open, and all these tabs sit on one line. Suggested by @RudiVader.
