@hrgdavor don't panic. i understand just fine. but i wanted to make sure that everything has been tried before making changes. also, i'm not certain why 'exact' mouse position is important. i'm just fine working with V2, and don't find the inertia to be troublesome. so, maybe this would be a user preference. no?

@Alasdair-McAndrew sure. check out the recent post by @crysislinux i haven't seen anyone embed V2 into a web page yet, but that will happen soon.

@z3dev Got it! I'll try to update the engine with this: https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org/tree/master/packages/web

@z3dev the svg is here : https://github.com/gilboonet/gilboonet.github.io/blob/master/demos/demi_l.svg What I'm trying to do is a composite volume made of half a revolution of extrudeRotate then extrudeLinear with the same shape. I was able to have both extrusion method return a volume, but they don't coincide.

@z3dev Thank you! That is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't look in there because I am working in the browser so I didn't check the CLI example

I guess my other question about a progress bar in the viewer is either not possible, or too fiddly to be practicable? This hasn't been requested before but some kind of progress indication should be possible. Can you create a new issue for this?

@z3dev Just I did!

Thanks! I'll give it a comment of support there

There is a nice V2 example from one of the openjscad users here: https://github.com/sdaau/openjscad_example_selfhost_spa_webpage maybe this is something you can use ?

awesome! one less thing i need to do this week

there is also a nice effort from one of the users. https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org/issues/666 it is a self hosted example. Maybe that is the direction you want ?

@z3dev An option to show/hide slider value would be great. Long ago I made some tweaks to parameters that looked like that, but now jscad architecture is too complex for me to make such changes. On the bottom of the screenshot you can see file browser to import/export parameters that I also added and was of great help to make complex models.

@BarbourSmith I saw your post but didn't reply as I wasn't sure it was about. I already tried on V2 the function that splits a solid into pieces as it is something that i use a lot : https://jscad.xyz/#https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gilboonet/gilboonet.github.io/master/demos/gig2i.js The function is scission3d() and the source is here : https://github.com/gilboonet/gilboonet.github.io/blob/master/demos/gig2i.js

@z3dev Thanks for the comments. I do think a catalogue in the website would definitely increase popularity of JSCAD. This will attract people who never got interested in JSCAD --- those who don't know how to code and can't use any CAD software. Sadly, most of them might be only end users and cannot directly help the development of the JSCAD project. As far as I know, the people in this community are all fully capable of both programming and 3D modelling. Maybe there can be a mechanism which can discover what those "end users" need most, and help the develop team to build accurate designs for those users.

Same here, I only use console.log in Firefox, and I even used it on some scripts to export data before I knew how to use localStorage.

Nice - thank you! Should this be listed in the various shortcuts under the settings menu?

@z3dev I could easily adapt to any solution allowing to feed a list parameter with files, it will be far a better UI practice than my current one that requires the user to type the file name. Or maybe the ability for a text parameter to receive a file from a drag-drop operation.

Thank you so much! Honestly looking at it now I don't see how I didn't understand how it worked. Union takes an array of solids so that would make the most sense. Thanks!

@BarbourSmith Thanks. I noticed that as well. For now, you'll have to manually switch the version to 'alpha'.
