Features

• It is now possible to create rooms anywhere, even if the creation tool is not touching an existing surface.

• Added an option to pick a separate resolution for the room shown in SketchUp’s viewport (previously, a low-resolution version of the room map was always used). This is especially useful with renderers that do not support proxy maps, such as Enscape. However, please note that this increases the size of the model.

• Added more information in the pack section: price and room count.

Changes

• Changed the preview when creating rooms from a single purple rectangle showing the front window to a full box showing the future room’s volume.

• Changed the icons in the RoomBox toolbar.

• Fixed the room names not updating when assigning a different room type.

• Fixed the room order changing in the library in each session.

• Fixed packs sometimes being mixed up in the purchase interface.

• Fixed the “Delete” button for custom maps sometimes being invisible.

• Fixed the toolbar buttons being disabled when a window is already opened/a tool is already active. Now, they can also be clicked in that case, which focuses the window/goes back to the previous tool.

• Fixed the room editor not opening when selecting rooms.

• Fixed some rooms appearing blurry in the room editor’s thumbnail.

• Fixed the position of room sprites not updating in real-time when changing it from the editor.

1.0.0-beta4 (2022-11-03)

Changes
