CadCraft 0.6 impact map

furniture.dwg shows concentric circles instead of its blocks. Check nested blocks, negative and non-uniform scales, OCS on INSERT and CIRCLE, base points.

Imported DIMENSIONs drawn from their block vs our redraw; rotated UCS and OCS; DIMLFAC.

Entities with extrusion (0,0,−1) or a non-world OCS, rotated blocks, viewport twist.

a Discord member’s plant layout fails in ours and opens in ArtCraft’s app. Read it with cc-dwg in /use and /lab; fix the reader or say clearly what it can’t read.

No details yet: Studio’s unsigned .dmg and Gatekeeper, or a browser. Reproduce on the Mac mini.

The automatic roof takes freestanding and interior walls: the hip roof goes from 8 to 12 planes, with an extra facet at the L.

A picture window has no hinges, so the option should not show.

In the model theme the Sun date and time boxes show white while "Use another date and time" is off. The dialog is shared, so ModelCraft gets the fix too.

The toast lingers after the model has finished updating.

It says "click an element in the 3D view", but the palette stays hidden until 3D or Split.

A wall the Draw tools reshape keeps its render material but loses its painted IFC colour, because its body is rebuilt.

Cannot draw a circle from the midpoint of a face created by pushing a rectangle into a long shape.

In MarkupCraft 0.4, the pages menu pops down and left, obscuring part of the menu.

In BimCraft, certain elements disappear or become transparent when a section is applied, depending on view angle.

BimCraft model imports at wrong angle; section cuts misalign; copied elements (doors) snap to modeled space rather than actual model when snap-to-wall is enabled.

Stretch command does not properly interpret a selection made before the command is invoked.

Section edit window and draw window overlap on screen, creating UI collision.

A test fails because some PartCraft buttons (from the lc-make session) are not in the input registry. Add them to the registry, or take them out of the toolbar.

A test fails on the key shell.layout, added by the shell-ui session. Add it to the shell’s lang/en.json (with the es-MX and id drafts).

bin/test-partcraft.mjs ends 2016 passed, 1 failed. lc-make raised the assembly file version to 5 while part-usability worked in the same folder, and an older test still reads version 5 as newer than supported. lc-make was asked in its inbox to update the test with its change. Check it is done; PartCraft 0.5 refusing version 5 files is expected.

Description: Pressing the fullscreen button from within the app immediately exits from fullscreen. The green traffic light button works. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open CadCraft Studio 0.5 on MacBook Air M4 2. Press the fullscreen button inside the app Expected: In-app button stays in fullscreen. Actual: In-app button immediately exits fullscreen. Environment: - Device: MacBook Air M4 - App: CadCraft Studio 0.5 macOS preview Opened on GitHub by a Discord member: https://github.com/getcadcraft/desktop-shell/issues/1

Scan to BIM (BimCraft 0.6 desktop, LAS 4.39M points, aligned to a level and turned square): after the first three walls the cloud jumps about 1.5 m up and sideways and the plan slice almost disappears; the same with Place = Model coordinates (walls then sit beside the facade in 3D); undo puts it back. cc-ifc centred the model on its first element and the rebuild after an edit centred it again. Fixed in /lab (the coordination matrix is kept through rebuildNow; cloud-ui.js keeps its placement). Tests: --draw06 df22 and browser-draw06.mjs df22. Workaround told to the reporter: draw one wall first, then open and align the scan. docs/0.6.1.md 61.1.

Since 0.6, dragging to reorder groups and components, or to put an item inside a container, does nothing: macOS shows the green + while dragging, and on release the item stays where it was. Only cut and paste works. Seen in Studio 0.6 on macOS; check the browser build too. docs/0.6.1.md 61.3.

Found by bin/test-phones.mjs at every phone size: Views › Timeline opens a phone sheet of height 0 (modelcraft/dev/ui.inc). Shipped in 0.6 as a known limit.

"This drawing could not be read… saved in a version the reader does not handle yet (AC1027)." That is the general unreadable message: cc-dwg reads 2013 drawings, so something in this file fails. Ask a Discord member for the file. docs/0.6.1.md 61.4a.

In the app, clicking Open sometimes did nothing, or the app froze after a file was chosen in the file dialog. Only restarting and opening from the Recent list worked. docs/0.6.1.md 61.4b (the path arguments for assistants are their own 0.7 item, MCP-PATHS).

SPLINE and MULTILEADER objects are lost or changed when a drawing is saved. CadCraft has no spline object (splines become polylines on import); check multileaders in dwg-save.js. docs/0.6.1.md 61.4c.

ą, ę, ł, ś, ż and other letters outside Windows-1252 come out as "?": plot.js writes Helvetica with WinAnsi only. Needs an embedded font or another encoding. docs/0.6.1.md 61.4d.

Polylines look wrong on screen after a DWG is opened. Needs a Discord member's drawing to reproduce. (A REGEN command is its own 0.7 item, CAD-REGEN.) docs/0.6.1.md 61.4e.

Switching visibility states works, but the attributes are not refreshed to match the active state: the attribute set is wrong and one value comes out empty. The same block shows the right attributes in another CAD program. docs/0.6.1.md 61.4f.

In Place = Model coordinates, "Turn it square" once gave -4.17° and the cloud swung out of view. Undo the alignment and aligning again gave -3.2° and worked. Check the turn's centre in model coordinates (it may be the same re-centring as FIX-061-CLOUD). docs/0.6.1.md 61.5.

Drawing exterior walls clockwise in plan with "Outside on left" put the wall body on the inside of the line. docs/0.6.1.md 61.6.

Our own readers in pointcloud.js, streamed in chunks like XYZ. Binary-compressed PCD refused with a message.

RCP, RCS, FLS, LGS, TZF and ZFS open a card naming the format and how to export E57 or LAS from the maker’s software, plus a point-cloud-formats help topic.

Sync script to CadCraft, pc.* strings, help updates, What’s new lines, licences in the gate.

Spike for a clean-room description of pre-R13 DWG and public samples. If go: a read-only legacy reader. If not: a clear "save it as DXF" message instead of a read error.

ALIGN with one to three point pairs and optional scaling; an Align and distribute panel by bounds, first or last object, or a point; one undo step each.

4+7/16, 12'6" + 3/4", (24'-0")/3, 2*450mm on the command line, dynamic input, Properties and dialogs. Our own parser, no eval. Each app keeps its own copy. Optional CAL.

Count by type, total length and total closed area in Properties, plus a status-bar readout that can be switched off.

Double-click to EATTEDIT, ATTEDIT, ATTSYNC, BATTMAN and REFEDIT in place. Values and definition changes round-trip in DWG (six versions) and DXF.

Ctrl+V of a screenshot places an IMAGE at the cursor; on save the PNG goes beside the DWG/DXF. MarkupCraft gets it as a picture markup.

EXPORTPOINTS: POINTs and block insertion points to CSV/TXT in PNEZD, PENZD or XYZ, with units and optional UCS. Help topic "Points for BIM programs".

An always-visible "Show bars" tab while bars are hidden, Settings › General › Reset the layout, and a help topic. Every app and Studio.

An architectural set and an as-built set, CC0, DWG + DXF; File › Open a sample; a walkthrough on /tutorials/cadcraft; dimension-size and AutoCAD-compatibility topics.

Right-click a toolbar: Lock / Unlock, Arrange (drag tools), Reset; ribbon-style menus collapse to tab names and pin open.

One setting for the whole interface (bars, toolbars, panels, dialogs, 80–140 %) per app and in Studio’s hub.

TRIMEXTENDMODE as a command and variable, and a setting for what a drag does: Path (today) or Window.

Spike: read a page’s content stream and write it back byte for byte. If go: page vector paths (≈4 d), pictures (≈1 d) and text runs with their font (≈4 d). Encrypted and signed files refused.

Six feature requests: offset tool for creating insets, solid color materials, clean presentation view hiding guides, follow-me tool for curves, hide/isolate for groups, and inferencing on group corners.

Request to add a log showing who edited each element last, for collaboration tracking in live drawing sessions.

Request to save view as named camera and lock it for consistent rendering as drawing evolves.

Suggest that clicking in empty space should only deselect when shift is not held.

User cannot find dimension tool for precision modeling and wants dimension values to display in standard units (mm/cm/km) instead of current format.

The never-translate list, the register (Anda, short imperative prompts) and the CAD/BIM term table, in the shape of the Spanish glossary.

id.json beside every dev en.json: the eight apps, the four add-ons, shell, catalog, Studio hub, desktop shell (about 154,000 English words). Marked a draft until a native speaker reviews it.

Language checks clean, Accept-Language id-ID picks it, one browser pass per app with ?lang=id (toolbars, Settings, prompts, phone layout), shows as Bahasa Indonesia in Settings, packed by Studio.

Coordinate readout in plan and 3D, origin and survey point markers, the current level named on the plan, a coordinates help topic.

Grid lines with bubbles and labels, by spacing or one by one, written as IfcGrid, drawn in plans, sections and elevations, snapped to by the Draw tools.

Trim or extend a wall to another, and corner two walls, one undo step each.

Floors and slabs from a drawn outline (balconies, cantilevers, landings) with openings; IfcRamp flights between levels with slope and landings.

Project browser, view range per plan, visibility per view, view templates, arranging views on sheets yourself; detail views and legends after.

Site from an outline, Building placed on it (Site → Building by itself), levels by height or by splitting the building.

Link another IFC by reference with its placement, snap to it, reload and unload; saved as a document reference.

The plan shows the cloud’s slice at the cut height, Draw tools snap to it, the cloud aligns to a level and turns square; a "Model from a scan" walkthrough.

Walls from a DWG/DXF’s lines on chosen layers, doors and windows from chosen blocks; the drawing stays as an underlay.

BimCraft’s terrain reads LandXML surfaces, CivilCraft’s export.

agents.js like the other four apps: read the model, Draw edits as one undo step each, over the control channel and MCP; headless IFC edits.

Spike: runs by size, fittings, systems, the MQ tables reused, what needs makers’ catalogues. Go / no-go.

User requests BimCraft to match Chief Architect's user-friendliness and workflow, preferring it over Revit.

Replicate Revit's family idea inside BimCraft: IFC has types (IfcElementType) and occurrences (IfcElement) but no families, so the family system lives in the app and maps to type-instance relations. Families keep a long type list manageable (one two-sided door in many sizes). A first family editor needs basic geometry operations, Booleans and visibility parameters; richer parametrics later.

Next step after drafting walls and elements is laying out views, which takes BimCraft past a 3D modeling program. Asked for: a sophisticated view system. Floor plans with a cut plane, view range, crop region, scale, object visibility control and an underlay. Reflected ceiling plans, to place ceilings and ceiling-mounted fixtures. Callout views, each a child view derived from another view. Drafting lines and hatch regions in each of these views. Already built (DF.19): project browser, floor plans with a view range (cut height, top, bottom, depth), visibility by category and element, view templates, sheets you arrange. Not built: crop region, reflected ceiling plans, callout views, drafting lines and hatch in a view, detail views and legends; per-view scale and underlay to be checked. Session bim-views_PART_2 spikes first, then the owner picks the cut line.

Check ROF FDB at offset 0, so the card says "an Archicad project" for certain, or "renamed?".

Tasks gathered into work packages and stages that can be selected, filtered and played as one.

Arc segments with ends at different elevations in 3D polylines and feature lines: length, grade, DWG and LandXML round trip.

Elevation targets limited to the subassembly’s own side; a feature line from one baseline used as a target by another, staying dynamic.

Custom pipe-network structures from parameters (shape, sizes, sump, frame), saved as library items.

Spike, including reversing with trailers. Go / no-go.

Follow the fold live between outer and inner screen, as Android folds do; phone test sizes added.

Tablet pen input mode could help designers capture ideas at different levels of fidelity.

"Send automatically" with batch size and pause; a per-minute cron sends each batch. Same rules: claim before mail, never retry a stuck row, suppressions apply.

Progress, next batch time, Pause, Resume, Send the next 50 now, Change the pace, Cancel; pauses itself on a run of Brevo errors.

Edit subject, preheader and body with a required note; versions per recipient; a fresh test send before the next batch.

Fake clock, two batches, pause and resume, two cron runs at once never mail twice, a correction mid-send.

Covers Robot Structural Analysis. An analytical model from DetailCraft or BimCraft members, load cases and combinations, a linear 3D frame solver, results on the model, a report. Code checks later.

Covers 3ds Max animation. Camera paths and object keyframes on a timeline, rendered to video with the shared renderer.

Covers Inventor Nesting. The apparel nesting generalised to plates and sheets: grain, rotation steps, spacing, DXF for the cutter.

Covers Inventor Tolerance Analysis. A dimension chain in a PartCraft assembly, worst case and RSS, contributors ranked, using the parts’ GD&T.

Covers Prospect and Workshop XR. WebXR walk-through of BimCraft and ModelCraft models: teleport, measure, section, BCF issues; together through Studio Live.

Covers Point Layout. Field points from BimCraft elements and CadCraft blocks for total stations, and as-built points compared.

Pick from LC.1–LC.10 (0.6-PART3 has the coverage table: their product → our app → covered, partial, gap).

Live session limits are soft. How many people can join depends on their hardware, the drawing’s complexity and the network, none of which GetCadCraft controls, so there is no hard cap of our own (today the protocol stops at 20; the host can lower it). When a host allows a large list of people, Live shows a warning that explains the performance cost (every edit goes to everyone, and weaker laptops or slow links will lag) and lets them continue. The other defaults stand: holds start on select, viewers need approval, browser joiners allowed, the hold and assistant rules as built.

Approved by the owner on 2026-10-17: the first-party add-ons in docs/ADDONS-CANDIDATES.md (Electrical, Apparel, Render, Point clouds, then HVAC and Piping) are the ones we build. All of them are already built (Electrical and Apparel in 0.5, Render in 0.5, point clouds in 0.5 and 0.6, HVAC and Piping in 0.5, off by default). Everything else on that list is community work on the developer kit.

Keep the outline (recommended) or merge back to one flat face. Moved out of Decision Time 2026-10-17: Keep the outline when an inner face lands flush (the recommended choice, and how it works now).

a Discord member proposes embedding all capabilities into Studio instead of separate named apps.

Length, width and radius boxes beside the pointer while sketching; typed values become driving dimensions.

An arrow on an Extrude’s end face, an arc on a Revolve, with the value box beside it.

Extrude from it, Cut into it, Hole here.

Drawn faint once the part has a solid, full again while choosing a sketch plane; a View toggle.

"Extrude1 · 25 mm", editable on double-click.

"Coincident × 4" with Select and Delete all in the sketch panel.

Spike was a go: an assistant to the hand marker with length scoring, several orders, concave-aware raster, mixed sizes. Apparel add-on.

An allowance item not measured from marks, and a CivilCraft export of cut/fill into TakeoffCraft.

Today they live in the browser only. An xdata block like CADCRAFT_3D would carry them in the file.
