Web viewer

  • File › Export › Web page writes a design as one HTML file that opens in
    any browser, offline: colours and materials, the component tree, named
    views, measuring, and a person to walk through the model (Shift runs,
    the right mouse button passes walls), also on a phone or tablet.
  • File › Project › Web Viewer gives a project a web folder: an index of
    its designs with thumbnails and a page per design, updated on each Save
    and kept in the project's versions.

Window

  • Windows and Linux start in the Floating layout with the Browser's Rows
    background; Preferences can switch both, also while Docked.
  • In the Floating layout on Windows and Linux only the menu bar stays at
    the top; the title row's controls and each toolbar group float over the
    view, and clicks between them reach the view.
  • The Browser card grows with its rows down to the timeline before it
    scrolls; in the Rows background its scroll bar is on the left.
  • A design opens with the root active; a design whose tree is longer than
    the Browser opens with its components folded. Collapse All keeps the
    root open.

BUILD

  • A square corner on a profile's end lies on the end face, flush with the
    outer side, without a mitre; corners at other angles are mitred.
  • The part and the connector are chosen from a picture tile that opens
    the part picker; Placement and Length are icon buttons; the More button
    is gone.
