This update introduces significant feature enhancements and experience improvements, including:

  1. Introduced Model Grouping: Added support for grouping multiple models together to enable unified operations (move, rotate, scale), improving management efficiency for complex assemblies.

  2. Added Explode Functionality: Added the ability to decompose Groups or Compound Shapes into their original sub-shapes.

  3. Added Sub-Shape Removal: Added functionality to remove specific sub-shapes from their parent Shape.

  4. Added Sub-Shape Duplication: Added functionality to duplicate specific sub-shapes within a Shape.
  5. Added Geometry Type Conversion:
    • Support for converting Faces into Shells.
    • Support for converting Shells into Solids.
  6. Initial iPad & Stylus Support: Optimized UI and interactions for basic modeling operations using an Apple Pencil on iPad.
  7. Added Workplane Creation from Sections: Added support for dynamically creating workplanes based on cross-sections of existing geometry.
  8. Introduced Material Brush Tool:
    • Added a brush tool to directly assign/paint materials onto selected Faces.
    • Included a complementary material eraser tool for removing specific materials.
  9. Added Scene Management:
    • Added the ability to create and save Scenes based on the current camera view.
    • Clicking a saved Scene instantly restores the camera to that specific viewpoint.
  10. Added Measurement & Analysis Tools:
    • Added interactive tools for measuring lengths and angles.
    • Added the ability to automatically calculate and display the length (for edges), surface area (for faces), or volume (for solids) of selected entities.
  11. Core Engine Upgrade: Upgraded the Open CASCADE Technology (OCC) engine to version 7.9.1.

Additionally, this release includes:

Over a dozen bug fixes and minor refinements, further enhancing software stability and user experience.
