Version 1.9.4

May 17th, 2022

  • New “Mesh Patch” and “Mesh Loft” components in the utilities category of the plugin.

  • The dialogs for the text input and import components have been replaced by context menu items.

  • For documents containing hatches, the hatches are now imported as curves using our Import Geometry component. As an example, this means that all elements from .AI (Illustrator) documents are imported

  • It is now possible to define names for materials using any of our material components. If a component does not have a "Name" input, or if the "Name" input is not specified, the name of the component is used. If this name is still the default name, a unique ID is generated instead. This ensures that all materials can be uniquely identified in the API.

  • The performance of the glTF 2.0 component has been improved.

  • Various fixes related to mime types for textures and imported files.

Version 1.9.3

March 22nd, 2022

  • New file format supported for exporting: FBX

  • New ShapeDiver Output component. This component can be used instead of the display components to send geometry to the viewer. It can also be used for attribute visualization in the viewer and will become central to many upcoming ShapeDiver features.

  • Better support for importing files containg blocks: block information is now included as attribute of the imported geometry.

  • Bugfix: when exporting 3dm files, the file version is corrected to match the version of Rhino running on the ShapeDiver servers.

  • The plugin now sends warnings in case groups are sent to the Display components.

  • Added the .ifc extension to the “Import Text” component

  • Bugfix regarding the “Attach Transformations” component: missing transformations in arrays do not happen anymore.
