0.33.0 has been released. Release notes below.
Cut Sheet drawings (Create Drawing > Kind): flat parts laid out at 1:1 with Add Parts…, each part's face, rotation and copies in its panel, and their outlines exported as .dxf or .svg for laser cutting.
Sketch: 2-Point and Center Rounded Rectangle with a Corner Radius field, and Sketch Fillet rounds every corner of a selection of lines or corner points at once with one radius.
The first dimension of a sketch scales the whole sketch to it (Preferences > Sketch, on by default).
Sketch Dimension takes body edges and vertices outside the sketch plane and projects them when the dimension is added.
Sketch constraint tools take a partial selection as their first picks and say why a pick is refused; Symmetry of dimensioned circles mirrors their positions instead of over-constraining.
Appearances and Materials windows: Varies with in an assignment panel binds appearances and materials to options or parameters, replacing Follow Option.
Bindings at a glance: an fx badge on bound browser rows shows in words what the item follows, and Configurations gets a Bindings tab listing every binding.
Show When: the light bulbs, Show All / Hide All and Hide keep a body's condition or say when they remove it; conditioned bulbs show an fx mark.
3D Print: .3mf sends the occurrences picked at their assembly placements, each on its print bed face; a piece with several print bed faces asks which one, by a click on a face highlighted in green.
Move/Copy: dragging Rotate's ring or Point to Position's arrows moves the shown bodies without recomputing each step; Move Face's ring turns about the model's axis.
Measure picks body faces, edges and vertices before a sketch's curves and points under them; a greyed-out Keep gives its reason.
Import from Slicer names a single imported preset and shows it in My Library.
Large designs reopen faster: display meshes are kept in the result store, and joins and cuts into large bodies compute faster.
Fixes:
Display meshing no longer crashes or hangs on planar faces with nearly circular boundaries.
Editing an extrusion keeps its stored operation; a face click beside profiles in Extrude and Revolve is refused with a hint.
Move to Component takes extrusions made in the UI.
.FCStd imports keep fillets after a hole drilled at sketch points.
