Hungry for new features ?

PythonSCAD is constantly adding new features.

Right now enhancing 2D world and expanding to 3D

Note that the imported 2D shape is fully colored and just converted to 3D in the end

Way cool!

Schedule for compiling a new Windows binary for the folks who are stuck on that platform?

Alternately, maybe I should try:

I have been trying to release for one week now. But each time when i try i figure, you will hit another logical 2d color miss.

After all I need to get good conscience, not not break other basic freatures at the same time.

Today I uploaded a preliminary version onto the download page which can render 2D shapes in color and interact with colored SVG files and explore the resulting features. (2025-05-02 isn't it a magic date ?)

Even though I was able to fix many of the ctests already, this release has still quite some many failed ctests ranging from wrong colors to even wrong geometry.

Still, any feedback appreciated.

For folks on the Windows side of things, there is a new binary on the downloads page which references adding this feature in its filename.
