Hi all,

Thanks for testing out first two Release Candidates. We’ve some remaining issues (see below).

Please consider the current master branch and snapshot binaries >= 2015.02.20 the third Release Candidate of OpenSCAD 2015.02.

As usual, we’re planning to give it a week or so for testing before making a release, unless significant enough bugs or regressions surface, in which case the whole process will have to rinse and repeat until we’re content.

Please give it a spin and pour your complaints here or on the github issue tracker.
This is most likely the last attempt before making it a proper release.

Thanks,

-Marius

o #1221: Very close vertices weren’t merged correctly, causing thin surfaces to be created

o #1210: Fix crash in
o #1205: Show axes and scale markers as default
o Visual tuning of the editor margin

I had a chance to give it a quick spin on Mac. The few issues I encountered
in the order from 'limits usability' to 'don't care':

Hi Oskar,

Thanks for testing!

  • Double clicking on a part of an object no longer centers the view on that
    point.

When did this last work? I’ve never used this feature and I cannot find any version of OpenSCAD where it works as you describe..

Fixed in master.

I know. Look at the built-in Qt (X) icon below, which is equally crappy. This is a long-standing Qt issue.
The fix will most probably be to draw the icons in SVG and hook them into Qt that way. Would probably require Qt 5.4.x.
It’s out of scope for the upcoming release, but will be handled shortly after.

Maybe the scale markers would be easier to read, when the underscore used
for a dot would be replaced by small square.

It has worked (for me) since #865 was merged. I have no idea when the
regression occurred.

Fixed in master. The picking didn’t work on retina displays.

In a simple single file project I have no syntax error highlighting with
either editor. Has this been removed?

Also the font size seems to be much bigger in the Syntilla editor. Does the
simple editor not use the settings in the preferences?

How does it look for you?
I would get this type of highlighting:

Also the font size seems to be much bigger in the Syntilla editor. Does the simple editor not use the settings in the preferences?

I just fixed two bugs:
o The legacy editor didn’t respond to preferences
o The scintilla editor didn’t handle the line number font correctly, causing excessive spacing for small fonts

If I press F5 I get error highlighting as you show. It doesn't work with
auto reload from an external editor.

Thx.
This behavior is due to the fix for https://github.com/openscad/openscad/issues/406
It’s still unknown why that didn’t work. Could be an issue with Qt.
I don’t dare to touch this unless I can make sure #406 doesn’t resurface.
