5.920 - Access sharing during export

Work more efficiently with updates to sharing and design history navigation.

  • New: Now you can access Project and Review Link sharing from the Export modal for easy access while exporting.

  • Improved: The Offset Edge tool now creates offset constraints to keep new offsets linked to their original geometry for predictable edits. You can also use variables and expressions with offset constraints to build parametric sketches that update automatically.

  • Improved: The Offset Edge tool now uses Single and Chain types. The previous Loop type is now Chain, which supports closed loops, and connected edges and sketches for more flexible offsets.

  • Improved: Scrolling through Design History is smoother, helping you find and edit previous steps more easily.

Hi Jeriz,
That’s OK for me !
Just for History. What do you want to say by “smoother”. I don’t see changes.
Thanks

The new offset constraints are great, makes it a lot more versatile!

Would have loved to see option for ”Reverse sorting” as well as ”Expand new action automatically” in History panel. Would save me a lot of scrolling and expanding panels for that last setting of an operation.

History is automatically scrolling to the bottom now.

That’s even worse UX. Scrolling should never be done on behalf of the user, it just confuses them.

It’s so simple to add a preference ”Reverse sorting in history” and take it into account. Autoscrolling takes more time to implement so I really don’t understand this choice. This literally takes 5 minutes so it’s not the work stopping anybody… For anybody curious, it’s almost a one-liner:

HistoryList = [action1, action2, action3]; // Get from ActionManager or whatever

ReverseSort = true; // Get from preferences

Function GetListItem(Int i): Action {

Return ReverseSort ? HistoryList[HistoryList.length-i-1] : HistoryList[i];

}

Wow, I’m having a bad day. This is a bullshit reply.

When are we going to get more important updates like assembly mode and even better drawing commands. This piece meal feeding of little updates is really getting old. Need important Updates Please.

Thank you

We need offset constraints on splines as well.

Variables are now stuck at the top.

We brought this up during our feature request this would happen and requested options for reverse sort.
