1.3.0 Beta 1

First build of the Materializr beta channel. Pre-release — expect a rough edge or two, and please send feedback.

What's new

✏️ Resize sketch geometry after drawing it — the headline feature. While editing a sketch, select an element in the Properties panel and change its size directly:

• Lines — set the Length; the line grows symmetrically about its midpoint, and anything sharing its endpoints (chained lines, rectangle corners, arc ends) follows along.
• Rectangles — select any side to edit Width × Height, centre held fixed.
• Arcs — Radius and Chord both scale the arc keeping its shape (chord = the straight distance between the endpoints); Sweep sets the included angle. Moving a point shared with an arc bends that arc to preserve its swept angle.

All of these are undoable history steps, and selecting an element highlights its history step (and vice-versa).

🧭 ViewCube edge clicks — the cube could snap to a single face or a three-face corner; now you can click an edge to look straight down the seam and see both adjacent faces at once. Hover near an edge to preview it. Also fixed a regression where cube clicks (faces, corners, arrows, Home, drag-to-orbit) had gone dead.

🧪 Beta update channel — there's now a Settings → Include pre-release (beta) builds opt-in. Turn it on to be offered pre-releases like this one in-app; leave it off to stay on stable. Stable users are never shown betas.

How to get it

Grab the asset for your platform below (Linux AppImage, Windows installer, macOS .dmg, Android APK). To receive future betas in-app, enable the opt-in in Settings.
