New stuff:

History! Surfaces remember how they were created, and update with edits. For example, revolve a curve and then edit the curve to update the revolved surface.

History updates are enabled by default for these commands: Extrude, Revolve, Rail Revolve, Sweep, Blend, Offset curve, Planar curve, and Loft.

If you want to prevent the updating, you can turn history off by selecting the generated object (for instance, the revolved surface), then use the new History button on the Edit tab. Updating can be disabled there. Updating can also be turned on there for several other tools that have it off by default, such as Transform/Copy, and some others.


Got an updated geometry library that has several bug fixes, especially for fillet-related crashes.

Object cloning - hold down Ctrll when dragging an object to drag away a copy of the object. Rotate and Scale transforms also support holding down Ctrl and clicking to drag a copy, and also a "Make copies" checkbox as well, which makes every click drop a copy.

Untrim - you can untrim a surface by selecting all the edges of one of its boundaries and using Delete. This erases the trim and gets you back to the underlying surface.

Updated crash handling - shows a dialog when there is a crash with a "Send e-mail" button on it, instead of opening up an e-mail immediately.

Fixed a bug where Alt key shortcuts didn't work properly.

Make Right-click work the same as cancel if there is no "Done" button available. Previously it would only work for "Done".

Fixed a bug where MoI would seem to start fine but no buttons would work on a few people's machines. This would happen if the file registrations for ".js" files were messed up.


Let me know how it works!
