CadCraft 0.7 impact map

Covers Forma Site Design and InfraWorks. Masses on a real site from CivilCraft’s GIS and terrain; sun hours and shadows, facade daylight, zoning envelope, street view; masses handed to BimCraft. Spike first. Owner 2026-10-23: go. The site-concept spike (docs/spikes/LC.1_site-concept.md) ran the slice end to end; build in 0.7: masses on a parcel, zoning envelope, sun hours and shadows, street view, hand-over to BimCraft with its georeference. Facade daylight is not included. Session massing (W3.21).

Covers ReCap. Several scans placed by targets or point pairs, refined by ICP with the error shown, saved as one project, exported as E57 or LAS. Suggestions 2026-10-22: Asked on /suggest (#857, Oct 20): a reality-capture tool for scans (with a mechanical CAD app the person knows better than the usual one: PartCraft, D7.61). Owner 2026-10-22: planned for 0.7 (suggestion #857, Inventor Pro and ReCap).

Covers Raster Design. Insert, scale, deskew and clean a scanned sheet, erase raster areas, snap to raster lines; a lines-and-arcs auto trace with no learning. Owner 2026-10-23: yes to the auto trace (lines and arcs, classic image processing, no learning, nothing sent anywhere). Planned in session trace (W3.15).

Covers Autodesk Build. RFIs, submittals and daily logs tied to sheets in MarkupCraft, assignments and due dates, offline on a tablet.

The build after DF.26 if it is a go: ducts and pipes by size and system, fittings, equipment, IFC systems, clash with the structure. Discord CSV 2026-10-21: Asked again on Discord (3 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 21; #craft-apps Oct 19, 21): a Revit MEP alternative, an ArchiCAD-style MEP designer. Owner 2026-10-23: build in 0.7. DF.26 was a go and DF.29 built the first slice in 0.6; next slice: equipment with ports, runs connected to equipment, MEP-vs-structure clash sets, spools and spool sheets, add-on API 1.1. Session mep-07 (W3.16). Suggestions 2026-10-26: Asked again on /suggest (#1060, Oct 26): model buildings with piped services and HVAC ducting. Built in 0.7; see also MEP-REL.

Covers Tandem. The handed-over IFC as a facility model: asset data, spaces, systems, documents, sensor values from CSV or a feed, a maintenance list. Spike first. Owner 2026-10-23: build the rest of the cut line in 0.7: documents per asset, COBie spreadsheet, sensor values from CSV, live feeds from the browser; a hosted twin as a write-up. Session bim-ops (W3.17).

Covers Forma for Preconstruction, BuildingConnected, Bid Board Pro and TradeTapp. Bid packages from a TakeoffCraft estimate, invitations, prices back, a leveling sheet, subcontractor records. Owner 2026-10-23: build B3–B6 in 0.7: the chosen bid priced in the estimate, invitations and prices back through a form, subcontractor records, bid day. Session bidding (W3.18).

Covers Configurator 360 and Informed Design. A PartCraft configuration published as a configurator page with 3D and DWG/STEP/IFC downloads; the same item parametric in BimCraft. Owner 2026-10-23: build the rest of the cut line in 0.7: variant pack, item variants in the library format, the configurator page, variant picking in BimCraft. Session configurator (W3.19).

Covers Inventor CAM, FeatureCAM, PowerMill and CAMplete. Contour, pocket, drill, 3D finishing, a tool library, material-removal simulation, post-processors; turning and inspection later. Discord CSV 2026-10-21: Asked again on Discord (3 mentions, #SolidCraft Oct 17; #cadcraft Oct 18): integrated toolpaths and post-processor files (.cps) so G-code fits each machine. PartCraft has CAM with Fanuc, GRBL and LinuxCNC posts built in; missing is a post you can edit yourself (Fusion .cps is Autodesk's JS dialect: read the idea, not the files).

Covers Insight. Loads, annual use and daylight factors from BimCraft’s spaces and constructions. Spike: EnergyPlus and Radiance as WebAssembly vs our own simplified engine. Owner 2026-10-23: build the rest of the cut line in 0.7: vertical sky component, solar gain, daylight factor on a grid, heating and cooling loads; EnergyPlus as WebAssembly a spike. Session bim-ops (W3.17).

Covers Tinkercad, Meshmixer and Netfabb. A beginner mode in ModelCraft, and print prep on the 3D-print check: repair, hollow, supports preview, STL/3MF. Owner 2026-10-23: build the rest of the cut line in 0.7: supports preview, beginner menu style, wall-thickness check, hollow with drain holes, repair. Session print-07 (W3.20).

Bring in a set of plans (PDF or scanned drawings) and have walls, doors and windows detected to build the model. DF.23 does this from the lines of a DWG/DXF; this asks for PDFs and pictures, related to LC.6 scanned drawings. Owner 2026-10-23: yes to the auto trace. Planned in session trace (W3.15): BimCraft Build › From a drawing… takes vector PDFs and scans (traced by LC.6's engine) into DF.23's walls and openings; MarkupCraft is not touched in 0.7.

The WebGL path tracer is deprecated upstream; moving needs WebGPU everywhere we run plus three’s WebGPU build.

Wherever the site or release notes name the Spanish draft, name the Indonesian draft the same way. Written for the owner, applied on the go for the release.

With an edge or arc selected, typing /n in the value box (the same /3 that spreads Move copies today) splits it into n equal edges, with a vertex at each division. An arc is divided along its curve, by equal angle, not along its chord. A curve made of many segments (a circle's or an arc's edges) is divided by length along the whole curve. Also a Divide… item on the right-click menu that asks for the number, so it works on a tablet with no keyboard. One undo step. Build it on model.js splitEdge. In the m3d kernel, so re-copy to the other apps (docs/3D-SPEC.md). Tests in bin/test-modelcraft.mjs: a line /3, an arc /4 (equal angles), a 24-segment circle /6, undo.

ModelCraft was left out of DF.3 (0.6 typed arithmetic): its value box reads 2.5 but refuses 2.5/3, 4+7/16 and (2.5)/3. Give it its own copy of the DF.3 parser (cadcraft/dev/lencalc.js rules: + - * / and parentheses over lengths with units, no eval, a refusal that says where) and use it in units.js parseValue for every length, in the tape measure and every other tool. A leading /n, n x, *n and ns keep their meanings (divide copies, array, sides), so /3 is still the copy command and 2.5/3 is a length. Same in the other 3D apps that use the m3d value box. Add ModelCraft to tools/lencalc/sync.mjs. Tests: 2.5/3, 12'6"+3/4", (24'-0")/3, 2*450mm, and /3, 3x, 24s unchanged.

OPEN, INSERT F, APPLOAD and COUNT export open a system file dialog, so an MCP call hangs until someone closes it and an assistant can't open a drawing on its own. Give these commands, plus SAVE, SAVEAS and PLOT, path arguments for the MCP server, confined to its roots. Moved from the 0.6.1 list (feature).

command_run presses Esc when the call returns, so a command that needs several answers can be cancelled by accident. Allow a list of answers in one call, or an option to keep the command open. Moved from the 0.6.1 list (feature).

No REGEN command to refresh the view. Add REGEN / REGENALL (redraw the caches of this pane / every pane). Moved from the 0.6.1 list (feature).

The Electrical add-on targets machine-control schematics (IEC 81346). Add symbols for building installations and residual-current devices (RCDs). Moved from the 0.6.1 list (feature). Discord CSV 2026-10-21: Asked again on Discord (2 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 18, 21): EPLAN / AutoCAD Electrical-style schematics. The Electrical add-on (IEC/NFPA symbols, cross-references, PLC I/O, terminal plans) already covers schematics; ArtCraft staff pointed one asker to ours. Suggestions 2026-10-22: Asked again on /suggest (#753, Oct 16): an electrical CAD without the yearly price. The Electrical add-on covers schematics today. Suggestions 2026-10-26: Asked again on /suggest (#917 an electrical design app like Eplan, Oct 22).

objects_list has no cheap count: a Discord member read the total with an offset past the end and limit=1. Add count_only (or limit=0 → count only) so drawing content stays out of the assistant's context.

The window id from windows_list is the window's label for this run, so it changes after every restart and an assistant's saved id stops working. Give windows a stable id (for example from the file), or let assistants pick a window by file.

a Discord member's wish list from another CAD tool: open, execute (insert with file, position and attributes; save as; plot; count; text) and convert IN OUT to dxf, dwg, svg, png or pdf, all headless, plus a batch CLI and a one-call drawing overview. Much of it exists in the headless MCP server and CLI (tools/mcp/server.mjs --root; drawing_open, drawing_save with a DWG version, drawing_convert, drawing_plot, drawing_describe; cadcraft convert), which is not published yet (@getcadcraft/mcp is the owner's). Missing: SVG and PNG output, insert with attributes as one call, and the same in the live in-app server (MCP-PATHS).

cadcraft/dev/m3d/ differs from ModelCraft’s since 2026-10-15 (before the lc-model session). It was not re-copied because CadCraft never animates, so it does not need the new methods. Decide whether to re-copy on the next sync, and run the CadCraft 3D tests if so.

The machine was busy when LC.17 and LC.18 were timed. Re-run both on a quiet machine before any speed is quoted in release notes.

People on Discord can't find multi-level walls in BimCraft. Today a wall's top is either "Up to the level above" or a fixed height. A fixed height can be taller than one floor, but the upper levels' plans don't show the wall (each plan draws only its own level's walls, model-plan.js planCut skips other storeys), rooms up there don't close against it, and it doesn't follow level height changes. Build: (1) wall Top = any level above (Level 3, Roof…) + offset, in the wall panel and the Draw bar (CadCraft_Wall TopLevel already takes any level's GlobalId; wallHeight already measures to it); (2) every plan the wall passes through shows it cut, and rooms on those levels close against it; (3) doors and windows can be placed in the part of the wall on an upper level.

Asked: toolbars with icon + label, dockable on any side; a friendlier, Windows-style default layout (3 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 17–20). Checked 2026-10-21: icons + labels / icons / labels already exist (Settings › toolbar buttons), the toolbar can be rearranged and locked, and panels dock left, right, bottom, float or pop out. Missing: the toolbar itself docks only at the top on desktop (the phone layout moves it top/bottom). Do: left / right / bottom docking for the toolbar in every menu style, saved with the layout and reset by Reset the layout. Goes with GH.1 (toolbar rows).

Asked: drag dialog boxes to a second monitor; they are trapped in the app window (#cadcraft Oct 21). Checked 2026-10-21: the same holds for ours. Dialogs are in-page <dialog> elements (showModal) with no drag; only side panels can go to their own window (app-panels.js). Do: every dialog draggable by its title bar (position remembered per dialog); in Studio, long-lived dialogs (Plot, Layers, Properties-style managers) can open as their own window like panels do.

Asked: “almost as unusable as AutoCAD because I don't know how to start”; how-to videos; the names of everyday commands (erase, trim) (3 mentions, #craft-apps Oct 17; #cadcraft Oct 17, 20). LC.21 is beginner 3D only. Checked 2026-10-21: help has getting-started, learn-from-a-sample, coming-from (AutoCAD habits), commands, command-aliases and keyboard topics, but no in-app guided start and no printable cheat sheet. Do: (a) a first-run guided drawing (5–6 steps, skippable, Help › Start the tour); (b) a one-page cheat sheet (PDF + help page) of the 40 everyday commands with aliases; (c) an AutoCAD → CadCraft command table on the site from the alias list; (d) fix coming-from.md, which still says XREF is not built (it is: layertools.js). Short videos through the video kit (owner picks).

Asked: PEDIT to convert a spline to a polyline (#cadcraft Oct 20). Checked 2026-10-21: we have no SPLINE entity or command and no PEDIT (both listed in not-built-yet.md). Splines in opened files come in as polylines; unedited ones are written back as they came (dwg-keep.js), edited ones become polylines. Do: a spline entity (fit and control points, degree), SPLINE and SPLINEDIT, and PEDIT (join, width, fit/spline/decurve, and Spline → polyline with a precision), read and written in DWG/DXF.

Asked: WBLOCK command not working (#cadcraft Oct 19). Checked 2026-10-21: ours has no WBLOCK at all (only a help keyword). Do: WBLOCK / W — a block, a selection or the whole drawing to a new DWG/DXF (version picker, base point, keep/convert/delete the source), with only the layers, styles and blocks it uses.

Asked: DIMEDIT and DIMSTYLE not working (2 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 19; ArtCraft confirmed theirs broken). Checked 2026-10-21: ours has neither command. Properties edits a dimension's settings and can apply a style that came in a file, and the DIM variables work on the command line, but you can't create, edit or set current a named dimension style. Do: DIMSTYLE (new / modify / set current / compare, saved in DWG/DXF), DIMEDIT (home, new text, rotate, oblique) and DIMTEDIT.

Asked: Korean, Vietnamese and Russian text and tab titles garbled (2 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 19). Checked 2026-10-21: DWG is fine (code pages 1251, 1258, 949, 932, 936, 950 and \U+ escapes decode). Three gaps in ours: (a) DXF ignores $DWGCODEPAGE — it is decoded as UTF-8, falling back to windows-1252 (cadcraft.js file open), so a Russian or Korean R2000 DXF shows garbage; (b) \M+ multibyte escapes (older Asian text) are not decoded anywhere; (c) PDF plots embed Liberation Sans, so CJK prints as “?” (pdf-font.js). Screen and tab titles are fine. Fixtures in fixtures/dwg/ per code page.

Asked: can't edit text after opening a DWG (#cadcraft Oct 21). Checked 2026-10-21: ours edits it (double-click → TEXTEDIT, EATTEDIT for attributes). The catch found while checking: mtextPlain strips inline MTEXT formatting (fonts, colours, stacked fractions, paragraphs) on import, so editing an MTEXT loses it. Do: keep the formatting codes and render the common ones; edit plain text inside them; write them back.

Asked: layouts show random artifacts; some files show empty layouts (#cadcraft Oct 17). Checked 2026-10-21: two risky assumptions in ours (dwg-import.js layouts): a layout with no block link is dropped entirely, and the first VIEWPORT found is taken to be the sheet's own and removed — if a real viewport comes first, it disappears. Paper size falls back LIMITS → first viewport → A4/Letter. Do: find the overall viewport by its id (the one with status/ID 1), keep link-less layouts with a warning in the import report, fixtures for both, and ask Discord for a file that opens empty (DISCORD-ASK).

Asked: a custom scale is created but not saved or shown in the layout (#cadcraft Oct 17, 18). Related DC.14. Checked 2026-10-21: ours has a fixed metric + architectural list (sheets.js); a file's odd scale displays but can't be added; annotation scale is a fixed 1:1. Do: SCALELISTEDIT, the drawing's scale list read and written in DWG/DXF (ACAD_SCALELIST), custom scales in the viewport and plot pickers.

Asked: detect installed printers; only print-to-file offered (#cadcraft Oct 19). Related DC.14. Checked 2026-10-21: ours plots only a vector PDF (download or open in the browser's viewer, which can print). A browser can't list printers; Studio can. Do: in Studio, Plot › Printer lists the system's printers and sends the PDF with paper size and copies; in the browser, a Print button that opens the system print dialog on the plotted PDF. Also PNG and SVG plot output.

Asked: attach a PDF like AutoCAD, and insert a PDF into a model (2 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 17, 21). Checked 2026-10-21: ours has no PDFATTACH/PDFIMPORT; the open dialog takes .dwg/.dxf only. MarkupCraft already renders PDFs (pdf.js) and reads vector content. Do: PDFATTACH (page, scale, clip, fade, snap to its vectors), saved as a PDF underlay in DWG/DXF; PDFIMPORT turns a page's vectors and text into lines, arcs and text. Owner 2026-10-21: planned for 0.7 (session cad-bugs). Uses the vendored pdf.js (Apache-2.0) as MarkupCraft does; underlay saved as PDFDEFINITION / PDFREFERENCE in DWG (cc-dwg, from the ODA spec) and DXF. Suggestions 2026-10-26: Asked again on /suggest (#913, Oct 22): import a PDF or image, scale it and trace over it. PDF import and underlay are built here.

Asked: open 3D drawings/solids; “where is 3D” (5 mentions, #craft-apps Oct 17, 18, 20; #cadcraft Oct 17, 20). Related DC.1, M3D-DRIFT. Checked 2026-10-21: the handoff is there (the Open in ModelCraft button, OPENIN3D), and CadCraft's 3D tab draws its own solids. But 3DSOLID/REGION/BODY from AutoCAD are kept byte for byte and never drawn — the SAT/SAB inside is not read (acis.js), in CadCraft, ModelCraft and BimCraft. Do: a clean-room SAT/SAB reader for planar and simple curved faces, tessellated for display (edit stays read-only); counted honestly in the import report.

Asked: STEP (and NC1 steel) support (#cadcraft Oct 20); SolidWorks / Creo / CATIA parts with features (3 mentions, #SolidCraft Oct 18 — STEP named there as the practical bar). Checked 2026-10-21: NC1/DSTV is built (DetailCraft, nc1.js). PartCraft exports a faceted STEP on the mesh kernel, but STEP import (and exact STEP export) needs the OpenCascade kernel, which is off in shipped builds (LGPL) — so a user can't open a STEP today. No STEP in ModelCraft or BimCraft. Native SLDPRT/Creo/CATIA stay out (closed formats); the SolidWorks macro exchange (tools/partcraft-sw) still needs its first run in SolidWorks. Do: a clean-room AP203/214/242 reader for faceted and B-rep bodies (tessellated to the mesh kernel), in PartCraft, ModelCraft and BimCraft. See D7.45 for the kernel.

Asked: load existing AutoLISP (APPLOAD, acaddoc.lsp auto-load) and more functions such as BOOLE (5 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 17, 18, 20). Checked 2026-10-21: ours has a full LISP interpreter (DCL, VLA), APPLOAD with a Startup Suite, and BOOLE. Missing: acad.lsp / acaddoc.lsp — in Studio, read from a support folder the person picks (and S::STARTUP); in the browser, the Startup Suite stays the way. .fas/.vlx/ARX stay refused.

Asked: snapshot on every save and a visual diff against an older revision; a reviewer suggested a browse panel like Fusion 360 (3 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 19, 21). Related DC.27. Checked 2026-10-21: autosave in ours is crash recovery only; cloud drawings already keep versions on the server (drawing_versions, /api/v1/sync/versions) with no UI; Compare covers styles, layers and settings, not geometry; drawing compare exists only in MarkupCraft (PDF sets). Do: a History panel (cloud versions + local snapshots kept on save in Studio), open or restore a version, and DWGCOMPARE-style geometry compare (added / removed / changed, coloured).

Asked: a Civil 3D alternative (2 mentions, #craft-apps Oct 17, 20). Checked 2026-10-21: CivilCraft already covers most of the Civil 3D list (TIN surfaces, alignments, profiles, corridors, pipe networks, drainage, grading, parcels, mass-haul, sections, LandXML, plan/profile sheets). The gaps that stand out: alignments have no spirals (alignment.js), corridors have one simple symmetric assembly (no curb, gutter, sidewalk; corridor.js). Do: clothoid spirals (LandXML in/out), an assembly editor with curb, gutter, sidewalk and daylight subassemblies, different left/right. LC.16 covers networks. Owner 2026-10-22: roads and railroads were discussed; rail is CV.1. Order together.

Asked: a constraint solver that stays understandable in large assemblies, and many constraints without crashing (2 mentions, #craft-apps Oct 20; #SolidCraft Oct 18). Checked 2026-10-21: sketches have a real solver with redundancy/conflict analysis (solver.js); assemblies are placed by walking a tree from the grounded part, and a joint that closes a loop is only checked, not solved (assembly.js). Nothing tests a large sketch. Do: a loop-closing assembly solver with the same over-/under-defined colours, and a 500-constraint sketch + 50-part assembly stress test with timings. Suggestions 2026-10-22: Asked on /suggest (#749, Oct 16): managing large, complex assemblies.

Asked: use a permissively licensed CAD kernel, NVIDIA's open-sourced SMLib suggested (#craft-apps Oct 18); proprietary kernels called the hard part (Oct 20). Related DC.43. Checked 2026-10-21: PartCraft ships on manifold-3d (mesh); OpenCascade is off in shipped builds (LGPL), which is why STEP import, exact fillets and shells don't work for users (see D7.26). The K.1 spike (tools/partcraft-test/k1-spike) last judged truck a no-go. Do: check SMLib's licence and state, build it to WebAssembly, and run the K.1 tests (booleans, fillet, shell, STEP) against it; a go/no-go for the owner. Suggestions 2026-10-22: Asked on /suggest (#747, #748, #749, #750, Oct 16): NURBS surface and class-A modelling. What it would take: SU.747, after this spike.

Asked: convert meshes to solids (#SolidCraft Oct 17). Checked 2026-10-21: PartCraft opens only .json and STEP; ModelCraft imports OBJ as faces and treats closed meshes as solids for booleans, but there is no mesh → body path. PartCraft's manifold kernel can take a closed mesh directly. Do: import STL/OBJ/3MF as a body (repair small gaps, report what can't close), usable in booleans and CAM; planar faces merged so sketches can sit on them.

Asked: weldments (#SolidCraft Oct 18). Checked 2026-10-21: deferred since 0.4 (0.4-PLAN). DetailCraft places profile members point to point with welds, but PartCraft has no members along a sketch. Do: a Structural member feature (DetailCraft's profile library along 2D/3D sketch lines), trim/extend at corners, end caps, gussets, a cut list with lengths and angles.

Asked: the Parameters window drops to a low frame rate at about 740 features (#SolidCraft Oct 18; reported about Tangency Labs' app). Checked 2026-10-21: we have no large-model test (only 30 rebuilds of small parts). Do: a generated 750-feature part in testfiles/generated/ (LARGE-FILES.md), time rebuild, Parameters window and feature tree scrolling; fix what's slow (virtualised lists, incremental rebuild).

Asked: a portable, no-install Windows build (#SolidCraft Oct 18). Checked 2026-10-21: Studio is NSIS (per user, no admin) plus an MSI on CI; no portable build. Do: a zip with the exe and data kept beside it (portable flag), the fixed WebView2 runtime inside, no updater; on /download under the installer.

Asked: the updater fails when a release has no asset for this platform; it still nags with updates off; show Open instead of Update (5 mentions about ArtCraft's launcher and SolidCraft, #SolidCraft Oct 17, #technical-development Oct 18, #craft-apps Oct 21). Checked 2026-10-21 — real in ours: (a) the hub sets updateReady whenever the build has a feed, not when a newer version exists, so the dismissed What's new card returns at every start, even with updates off (hub.js); (b) the feed has only windows-x86_64 (build.mjs), so any other platform with a feed gets “target not found”, reported as “network:” (updates.rs); (c) the hub reads r.message from a plain-string result, so every check shows the generic text. Fix all three before UPDATES turns on.

Asked: black screen on start on Linux after an update (2 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 18, 21; about ArtCraft's app). Checked 2026-10-21: ours has no guard for the known WebKitGTK blank window (NVIDIA, Wayland); nothing sets WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER. Also: the .deb/AppImage are named on the site but neither build.mjs nor a CI workflow builds them — find or add the Linux build. Do: set the variable before Tauri starts when it isn't set, a Linux CI job, and a clean-VM check (WIN-CLEAN-style community test).

Asked: a bug-report form that takes DWG/DXF/LSP, not just pictures (2 mentions, #cadcraft Oct 18). Related DISCORD-ASK. Checked 2026-10-21: our suggest, roadmap-suggest and contact forms take no files. Do: up to 3 files (DWG, DXF, LSP, PDF, IFC, PNG/JPG; 50 MB) on the support and roadmap forms, stored privately (B2, outside the web root), visible to staff only, deleted after 90 days; the form says who sees them.

Asked: people ask for BIM, Revit, Fusion, SketchUp and Civil 3D not knowing BimCraft, ModelCraft, PartCraft and CivilCraft exist; a per-app roadmap (6 mentions, #craft-apps Oct 17–21). Checked 2026-10-21: /roadmap is one list with no app filter; each app page says what's built and links to the roadmap, but not to its own steps. Do: ?app= filter on /roadmap and app pages linking to their steps; a “If you use X, use our Y” table (Revit → BimCraft, SketchUp → ModelCraft, Fusion/SolidWorks → PartCraft, Civil 3D → CivilCraft, Bluebeam → MarkupCraft) on the site and as a Discord paste. Suggestions 2026-10-22: Asked on /suggest: people name the mechanical CAD programs they know (#857, Oct 20), and one with hundreds of projects can’t run theirs on Linux (#615, Oct 14). PartCraft runs on Linux in Studio and the browser; the table should say so. Their native project files stay closed (D7-47).

Asked: an Armenian translation; a Vietnamese tester offered; Russian, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian users in the channels (6 mentions, #technical-development Oct 18; #cadcraft Oct 17–21). Related WL.7, ES-MX, LG.4. Checked 2026-10-21: we ship English, Spanish (Mexico, draft) and Indonesian (draft) everywhere, Arabic in CadCraft and PartCraft. Do: a contributor translation kit (string export, a checker for missing keys, the draft label) and invite the Vietnamese volunteer first; each language ships as a draft until a native review (owner picks which). Suggestions 2026-10-22: Asked again on /suggest (#881, Oct 20): a full Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil) interface for every app and tool. A pt-BR draft exists in dev (2026-10-22); pt-PT does not. Owner 2026-10-22: Portuguese is planned as SU.881 (pt-BR kept complete + pt-PT). Owner 2026-10-25: built in 0.7. Studio's hub has 23 interface language files (incl. Vietnamese, Russian, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal) and Italian); Armenian is not among them.

Asked: structural analysis and design in the suite, for students, teachers and engineers (#878, Oct 20); one place for the analysis suites engineers pay for (#754, Oct 16); steel structure analysis is too expensive (#859, Oct 20). Checked 2026-10-22: 0.6 LC.4 built linear 3D frame analysis in DetailCraft and BimCraft (load cases, combinations typed by hand, reactions, member forces, deflections, PDF/CSV report), and every panel says it is not a code check (owner, LC.4: codes later, one at a time, engineer-reviewed). Do (owner 2026-10-22: both US and EU): (a) load combinations generated from ASCE 7 (LRFD + ASD) and from EN 1990 (ULS + SLS, partial factors as recommended values with a National Annex table to edit); (b) steel member checks for both: AISC 360 and EN 1993-1-1 (tension, compression with flexural and lateral-torsional buckling, bending, shear, combined), the code chosen per project, utilisation per member, coloured in the view; (c) the report shows every clause used; (d) known-answer tests against textbook examples, and an engineer's review before it leaves /lab. Concrete design and slabs stay out of this item. Suggestions 2026-10-26: Asked again on /suggest (#1057 SPACE GASS, Oct 26; #931 Robot, Oct 22; #1056 ETABS, Oct 25: its concrete / slab side is SU.1056).

Asked: a link between the Rhino and CadCraft worlds, maybe a live connection through Grasshopper (#810, Oct 19); a more flexible freeform modeller with better rendering (#860, Oct 20). Related DC.54 (parametric modelling and scripting). Checked 2026-10-22: no app opens .3dm today. The file format's reference toolkit (openNURBS) is published with source under a permissive licence: check it with the licence gate before reading a line. Do: (a) .3dm import in ModelCraft and PartCraft (meshes, Breps tessellated, curves, layers, colours, instances), reported honestly for what isn't read; (b) a one-day spike: what a live link would take (a small plug-in on the other side speaking our MCP/control channel, Track AS), written up for the owner. Rendering is Track RN.

Asked: the laser engraving program a small business depends on keeps it on Windows; a free Linux-friendly one would free it (#772, Oct 17). Checked 2026-10-22: PartCraft's CAM writes G-code for mills (Fanuc, GRBL, LinuxCNC posts); nothing drives a laser. Do: a Laser panel (CadCraft first, PartCraft flat parts next): layers → cut / score / engrave with power, speed, passes; fill engraving of closed shapes and pictures (dithered); order inside-first; GRBL laser mode G-code ($32, M4 dynamic power) with frame-the-job and a preview; send over Web Serial in the browser and Studio. Other controllers' formats are a later item.

Asked: multi-plate automatic nesting as good as the commercial nesting programs, G-code later, with a way to store and number plates so odd-shaped offcuts are used in future jobs (#755, Oct 16). Checked 2026-10-22: 0.6 LC.17 built lib/nest (plates or a roll, several plates, grain, turns, holes, exact re-check; PartCraft and MARKERNEST); NEST-CAD-PATH asks how CadCraft outlines reach it. Missing: offcuts. Do: after a nest, each sheet's leftover becomes a numbered remnant (outline, material, thickness) in a stock list saved with the project and exportable; the next nest uses remnants first, then full sheets; labels for the remnant numbers; the report lists what each job used. Suggestions 2026-10-26: Asked again on /suggest (#961, Oct 24): nesting inside the CAD environment (see NEST-CAD-PATH).

Asked: a concept-to-prototype NURBS surface modeller like the industrial-design ones, whose full version costs about $20,000 a year (#747, #750, Oct 16); class-A surface work for production tooling (#748, Oct 16); large complex assemblies (#749, Oct 16; see D7.40). Checked 2026-10-22: ModelCraft is push/pull (MD.* adds polygon meshes and subdivision), PartCraft is solids on a mesh kernel; nobody models NURBS surfaces. This needs the exact kernel D7.45 looks for. Do: what a surface workspace would take (on D7.45's kernel answer if it is in by then, else on both outcomes) — curves (degree, CVs), skin/loft/sweep/blend, continuity G0–G2 checks (zebra and curvature exist in PartCraft), trimming — sized and written up for the owner; no code in 0.7.

Asked: BimCraft polished more than anything; there is no free alternative, and the current build needs polish to be useful (#751, Oct 16; no email left). Do: a day on /use BimCraft as a new user (open, draw a small house with BimCraft Draw, schedules, plan PDF, IFC out), every snag written down and fixed or filed; ask on Discord what feels rough (DISCORD-ASK). Session `bim-07` (wave 2).

Asked: a full Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil) interface for every app, tool, menu and workflow, for newcomers and professionals who work better in their own language (#881, Oct 20). Owner 2026-10-22: "do Portuguese". Checked 2026-10-22: pt-BR is a finished draft in all 16 scopes (docs/lang-sessions/pt-BR.md; gap fill for bimcraft and modelcraft the same day). There is no pt-PT, and a pt-PT file would fall back to pt then English, never to pt-BR, so it has to be a whole file. Do: (a) pt-PT by the docs/LANGUAGES.md routine — glossary tools/lang/glossary/pt-PT.md with a pt-BR column, as es-ES has es-MX (ficheiro, ecrã, guardar, eliminar, utilizador, pré-visualização; the AO90 spelling; Portuguese NP / EN drafting terms), every scope translated from the English with pt-BR as a reference, never a word swap; (b) pt-BR kept at 0 missing / 0 stale until 0.7 closes, after each session's What's new strings land; (c) both say "Draft translation, not yet reviewed by a native speaker" until a native reviewer reads them (owner item); (d) the language picker lists both by their own names.

Asked: an alternative to Archicad (#461, #567, #895, #896), to Vectorworks for architecture, landscape and interiors (#856, perpetual licence gone), to Revit (#884), and one BIM tool that starts from the 2D floor plan with the 3D made automatically (#879). Owner 2026-10-22: this belongs in 0.7. Checked 2026-10-22: BimCraft already draws walls, doors, roofs, rooms and schedules from a plan (BimCraft Draw), reads and writes IFC, opens Revit and Archicad bundles (DF.12b/c, partial) and has pipes and ducts (DF.29). It was filed under DC.1 (one app with plugin modes, SuperCadCraft), which is a different ask. Do: (a) one day working through a small house the way an Archicad user does (floor plan first, 3D follows, sections and elevations from the model, schedules, sheets) and a list of what is missing or clumsier, shared with SU.751; (b) the top gaps from that list built or filed with sizes; (c) a check of what Archicad and Vectorworks can exchange (IFC, DWG, their own bundle formats) and what we can honestly read of .pln (#567): the format is closed, so no promise until the licence gate has looked. Session `bim-07` (wave 2). The four Archicad suggestions (#461, #567, #895, #896) were merged into #461 on 2026-10-22, votes kept once per voter. Owner 2026-10-22: the family modeler is to work "just like Archicad" objects: see BIM-FAM-MORE and BIM-FAM-SOLID. Suggestions 2026-10-26: Asked again on /suggest (#981 Allplan, Oct 24; #930 and #1055 Archicad + Revit mix, #933 Vectorworks 2D). The extra asks are SU.1055 and SU.912.

Owner, 2026-10-22: many more units in every app (CivilCraft will use them most), and a Settings section where each unit is turned on or off for the dropdown lists, with a star for the default. One shared table, lib/units/ (canonical, copied byte for byte into each app by a sync script, like lib/shapes), in place of the five separate lists in cadcraft, civilcraft, markupcraft, modelcraft and takeoffcraft units.js (bimcraft, detailcraft and partcraft have none). Exact factors; the international foot and the US survey foot stay two different units. - Length: nm, µm, mm, cm, dm, m, dam, hm, km; mil (thou), in, ft, ft-in, US survey ft, yd, rod, link, chain, furlong, mile, US survey mile, nautical mile, fathom; point and pica for sheets. - Area: mm², cm², m², are, hectare, km²; in², ft², yd², square (100 ft², roofing), rood, acre, sq mi. - Volume: mm³, cm³, mL, L, m³; in³, ft³, yd³ (CY), US gallon, imperial gallon, board foot, acre-foot. - Angle and slope: degrees, deg-min-sec, gons (grads), radians; percent, H:V, rise:run. Settings › General › Units (the shell's, so every app gets it): one list per kind; each unit has an on/off switch and a star. Every unit dropdown shows only the units turned on, and the starred one is the default for new drawings, measures and items. The settings never change a file: a drawing or project keeps its own unit (DWG $INSUNITS, a CivilCraft project's ft / m / US survey ft), and a unit the file uses shows in its dropdown even when turned off. Typed values take any unit's mark (3 ac, 2.5 mi, 400 nm, 12'6"). Build on bimcraft PR #4 (yisraelk, closes GH.3): its toolbar selector and model-units.js (six units, getDisplayUnits/setDisplayUnits, localStorage bimcraft.model.units) become BimCraft's use of the shared table and Settings list; keep the work and credit, carry the saved choice over. Words in en, es-MX and id. Tests: each conversion against its legal definition, parse ↔ format round trips, the copies byte-identical.

Do: place plants at planting or mature size, fill a bed at spacing with a mix by percent, hedge along a line, trees that sit on the terrain and follow regrading, labels from table fields, plant schedule (CSV/XLSX, to TakeoffCraft). IFC site elements with properties.

Asked: parametric grading (owner, 2026-10-22; proposer a, terrain modelling). CivilCraft already has TIN surfaces, grading, feature lines, corridors and mass haul. Do: a simpler front end on them (no second engine): pad, platform, swale, berm, slope to a target gradient, draggable spot levels and contours, existing and proposed surfaces apart, live cut/fill, slope colouring with limits, flow arrows and ponding.

Asked by the proposer (b): parametric paving, paths, retaining and freestanding walls, kerbs, ramps, stairs and steps that follow or modify terrain. Do: objects that regenerate when the terrain or the line moves, layered materials, ramp gradient checked, IFC out with quantities.

Asked: irrigation tools (owner, 2026-10-22; proposer e). CivilCraft/BimCraft pipe networks exist; no heads, zones or hydraulics. Do: zones, generic head and emitter types (rotor, spray, drip, bubbler; users add their own), coverage and overlap, valves, laterals and mainline, Hazen-Williams pressure loss and flow per zone, schedule and bill of materials, known-answer tests. A calculation aid; an irrigation designer checks it. Owner 2026-10-22: lives in CivilCraft, not a ninth app. Heads: generic types first; branded data only with permission (LD.10).

Do: planting, grading (contours, spot levels, slope arrows) and irrigation plans, sections through walls and terrain, legends from the tables, on the existing sheet set and plot code.

Asked by the proposer (c): freeform 3D (extrusions, sweeps, lofts) combined with parametric, terrain-aware objects. Do: what BimCraft's element model needs for a freeform object with an IFC type, quantities and a base that follows or cuts the surface; written up for the owner.

Do: help topics, a how-to, a showcase garden file built once, Node and browser tests, es-MX, id, pt-BR and pt-PT strings.

Owner 2026-10-22: families go in 0.7, and 0.7 makes them solid. DC.114 (0.6) built families on IFC types: editor, formulas, Booleans, duplicate, save as IFC / .ccfamily.json (docs/apps/bimcraft-families.md; 118 + 42 checks). It has had no use by anyone but its builder yet. Do: (a) use it like a new user for a day: make a door, a window, a cabinet and a table family from nothing, place 50 of each, change sizes, undo and redo through all of it, save, close, reopen; every snag fixed or filed; (b) break it on purpose: huge or empty recipes, cyclic and wrong formulas, a family file from an untrusted source (limits, names, expressions), a family deleted while placed, two people editing the same family in Live; (c) round trip: IFC2X3 and IFC4 saved and reopened in BimCraft, and the families listed as plain types by another reader (cc-ifc, IfcOpenShell if it is on hand; the hand check with other BIM programs waits on the owner, DISCORD-ASK); (d) speed: a model with 2,000 placed family elements, a family with 100 solids, a size change that redraws everything; record the numbers with uptime; (e) keyboard, screen reader and phone use of the editor dialog; (f) es-MX and id strings complete; help topics families and family-editor re-read against what the app does. Known-answer tests for every fix. Owner 2026-10-22: the bar is "just like Archicad": if an Archicad user places, stretches and edits an object and it behaves as they expect (BIM-FAM-MORE has the detail), ours must too. In the day of use, (a) do it with the same small house as SU.461.

Libraries the user makes (owner request from Discord: nothing proprietary, nothing tied to one country): overhead conductors, bundled and underground cables, poles and towers, crossarms, insulators, fittings, transformers, cabinets, joints; categories and sub-categories of their own; required fields per kind; JSON and CSV in and out; a small starter library computed by us. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

Draw a line by clicking supports; insert, move and delete supports on the plan and on the line profile; suspension, angle and dead-end roles; sections between dead-ends; ground from the surface or survey points; obstacles and crossings with their clearance. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

Load cases of your own (temperature, wind, radial ice, asymmetric ice); ruling span and change of state per section; catenary sag and length per span; governing case from your tension limits; stringing table over a temperature range. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

Ground and obstacle clearance along every span, flagged on profile and plan; phase spacing, insulator swing, uplift; support loads per case, support sizing from the library, foundation size, crossarm and fitting checks. A design aid: an engineer checks it. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

Cable routes in trench types, ducts or direct burial, cover depth against the surface, crossings with pipes and other cables, joints by drum length, trench and cable quantities. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

Cable ends attached to supports and equipment, circuits from a source, voltage drop and current against ampacity, and a Checks panel always up to date: missing data, disconnected ends, overloads, clearance and strength failures, highlighted on the plan. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

powerline_* CivilCraft tools: supports, cable, sag, checks, stringing table, quantities. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

Help topics, Node and browser tests with hand-worked answers, a showcase project, es-MX, id and fr drafts. From D8.1 (Discord, a Discord member). Owner 2026-10-24: everything asked goes in 0.7; plan docs/0.7-PART8.md.

A Measure tool for the whole app (CivilCraft had none): distance and running total along clicked points, area of a closed shape, and on the line profile the height and horizontal distance between two points. Snaps to supports, line ends and points. From the requester's first try of the lab build (Discord, a Discord member, 2026-10-24). Owner 2026-10-24: in 0.7.

Trees (mature height and spread from the plant list), walls, structures and other raised hardscape from the Landscape workspace count as obstacles with a clearance rule, are checked along every span and show in the line profile where a span crosses them. From the requester's first try of the lab build (Discord, a Discord member, 2026-10-24). Owner 2026-10-24: in 0.7.

Crossings between underground cables, CivilCraft pipes and other cables use a clearance rule picked from the rule set (not only the trench type's own number); crossings of an overhead line with underground cables and pipes show in its profile. From the requester's first try of the lab build (Discord, a Discord member, 2026-10-24). Owner 2026-10-24: in 0.7.

Your own clearance rules already exist (Load cases and limits › Clearances); a "Clearance rules…" button beside every Clearance rule select opens them. From the requester's first try of the lab build (Discord, a Discord member, 2026-10-24). Owner 2026-10-24: in 0.7.

A rule set (load cases, limits, clearances, spacing) saved and opened as its own file; a country pack = a rule set + a library, shared as a community add-on, each marked "example: check against your standard". Nothing tied to one country is built in. From the requester's first try of the lab build (Discord, a Discord member, 2026-10-24). Owner 2026-10-24: in 0.7.

Settings › Global › Layout › Workspace: CadCraft classic (default), Ribbon and project browser, Toolbox and info box. One choice for every app (cc-workspace), an app offers the layouts its build has (manifest "workspaces"), and the choice is known before the first paint, so the classic layout never flashes first. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md.

Doc's (drsurfbum) docked ribbon and palettes, running BimCraft's own tools: nothing read-only, the panels keep docking, floating and their own windows, the ribbon follows the toolbar's three styles, tears off to its own window and collapses, the open tab is lit, labels fit in every language, every file type stays in the layout. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md.

A toolbox of every Draw tool in groups, an info box that follows the tool or the selection, view tabs per level and 3D, a quick bar, the toolbox in its own window; built from BimCraft's own controls. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md.

From drsurfbum/bimcraft-SDH: F01 IFC export fixes, F02 versioned wall records, F04 layered plan graphics (coarse / medium / fine), F05 wall sections and elevations, F06 assembly schedules and material legends. Every string translated (es-MX drafts). Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md.

Lift BimCraft's layout code into the shell (assets/js/app-workspace*.js): each app describes its ribbon (its ribbon menu style), toolbox, info box and views; the shell builds both layouts. BimCraft moves onto it with its tests unchanged. Phones keep the phone layout. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md.

bin/test-app-workspaces.mjs checks the contract in docs/0.7-PART9.md (classic default, no flash, our engine, panels, toolbar styles, tear-off, look, language widths, files, keys, words, no errors) for both layouts, in English, Spanish and Indonesian.

Owner 2026-10-24: a design doc that lets contributors build their own layout theme. Layouts become data (a .ccworkspace.json file of the shell's building blocks; the two built-ins use the same format), shared as add-ons of kind workspace, picked in Settings › Global › Layout, imported and exported, and checked by the same conformance test. The guide is docs/LAYOUTS.md in the public getcadcraft/addons repo, with a worked example, linked from the 0.7 release notes. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md.

The shared layout engine's gaps the seven app sessions found (ws-closing.md § The engine gaps): the registry's own reason for a hidden button, toolbox groups by their shown names, the toolbox redrawn when the app's groups change, a canvas sized between the blocks, the drawing area's bars and their menus over the toolbox column, the toolbar hiding with the bars, pressed tools lit in the ribbon / quick bar / view bar, a steady info-box height, a file that opens as views, the language checker's false alarm, and a busy guard on switching layouts. Each fix has a conformance check; app workarounds the fixes make redundant were removed where that was a small change. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-shell.md § Follow-up run.

The toolbox and info box layout puts the app's project browser on the right as its navigator (plans, sections, elevations, 3D views, schedules, sheets), with Properties and the right panel's own tabs under it. A view opens from it as in the classic layout. Asked on Discord (2026-10-24) by two members. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md § Discord ask.

With something picked, the info box shows its main settings (type, thickness, height, location line…) as small fields you change in place. Each is a twin of the app's own Properties field, so a change goes the same way and is one undo step. Asked on Discord (2026-10-24) by two members. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md § Discord ask.

Eight empty slots at the top of the toolbox. Click one to choose any tool or command of the app, right-click a tool and add it, or drag one in. Kept per app in this browser. Asked on Discord (2026-10-24) by two members. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md § Discord ask.

Click an element in the drawing and a small palette comes by the pointer with the app's edit commands for it (move, copy, rotate, mirror, offset, stretch, duplicate, delete — whichever the app has) and Properties. Esc, the wheel or another click puts it away. Asked on Discord (2026-10-24) by two members. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md § Discord ask.

The quick bar under the drawing holds the view settings each app has: scale, detail level, view range, fit, plan / split / 3D, units. Asked on Discord (2026-10-24) by two members. Plan docs/0.7-PART9.md; log docs/0.7-sessions/workspace-layouts.md § Discord ask.
