Roadmap 0.9, Requests for 0.9
D8.17 BimCraft: use your own sheet design with writeable fields (draw it, or import an SVG)
Asked (pasted 2026-11-06). Built: Formats… > Import SVG… reads a drawing from any program (rect, line, polyline, polygon, circle, ellipse, path with curves and arcs, text, groups, transforms) into lines and words; a word written {{company}}, {{drawing-name}}, {{number}}, {{project}}, {{date}} or any word of your own becomes a field typed per sheet ({{drawing-name}} / {{number}} are the sheet's own); a rectangle with id="drawing-area" says where the views go (Arrange for me uses it). Formats… > Draw one… is a small editor (rectangle, line, words / fields, drawing area, border, undo) that makes the same kind of SVG. The design is fitted to the sheet (never stretched), kept in the model as a title block, carried by the library file, and printed to PDF. Scripts and images in an SVG are ignored (read as shapes, never put on the page). Limits: a design drawn here is not re-opened for editing (delete and draw again, or edit the exported SVG); fills are grey, colours are not kept; fonts are the sheet's own. Not yet shared with the other apps' sheets (the parser is a DOM-free file, ready to sync). Tests in views09 --only t (30) and browser-views09 --only t (13).
