New version of openscad ! If you haven't checked recently - download the new version
OpenSCAD version 2015.03
Is now out.
And they've really rung the changes. A proper pick a file menu to open with. Then some real changes in the layout.
All lines are numbered - which seems odd at first but is useful and you get used to it pretty quick.
Apparently there's a new 2d text command (presumably you can extrude it into 3d text)
The best improvement I've seen so far is with the curly brackets '{'
Click on one and it immediately highlights it and also it's partner. Now that's bloody useful !
Doesn't seem to render any faster, and it's stopped telling you how long a render took. Which was useful.
The model display view now has fully scaleble measuring scales in all directions. That's very cool.
But major overhaul and a lot of new stuff that's also good.
Check it out !

I just discovered the folding editor bar on the left to allow you to close thing that are finished. I love folding editors, I used to use them when programming Transputers many years ago (1980s) and haven't really seen one since.

That's what they're called is it ? and that's what they're for !
Cheers :-)
Just wish it wouldn't crash if you have lots of bits in your model :-(
