well.

Hi,
I will publish my files only after building the first prototype and it
proves well. Maybe within 1 to 2 months. I do not want to do a release that
is a failure.
Thanks anyway.
Regards.

2 - Please add a command line to adjust the viewpoint. The lag between the
action of the mouse and the display update drives me crazy.
The (not yet finished) work on 3D mouse support also made it possible to
support also other ways of controlling the viewport. I've added a simple
DBus interface too which allows remote control. This will be only available
for Linux though. I have no idea if there are sensible options for the
other platforms.
3 - Automatic backup every time we press «F5» in order to be possible to
kill the process if we are caught in a loop or extreme delay and not loose
the work, recovering the work from the backup.
This is already there. Every time you compile a modified file, a backup
is made and that's mentioned as first line in the console window.
(e.g. "Saved backup file: /home/.local/share/OpenSCAD/backups/unsaved-backup-MTJ13858.scad")
Any help to speed up things to the poor guys of this world is welcome.
The biggest improvements can usually be obtained by changing the code
to work around complexity issues for both graphics rendering (F5) and
mesh generation (F6).
Of cause it would be ideal if that would not be needed, but even with
all potential improvements to OpenSCAD, I suspect for very complex models
that will alway be the case.
ciao,
Torsten.
Awesome! Can you add F6 render and save to STL to the DBus interface too?
Cheers,
Len

Yes, actually any menu/toolbar action is available too as the button
input events are mapped to existing UI actions. The question is how
to add parameters (e.g. for the export actions).
