New block override

From now on, blocks in Rayon will be both editable and overridable; that means that a block instance can be customized, without having to be detached from its definition. More on this feature here.

New annotation style options

Annotation now allow users to decide how to place leader's and dimension's texts, by controlling the annotation gap, rotation and position.

Save snapshot feature

We added this month a new save option, allowing users to capture a model snapshot, give it a name and save it to their model history. This feature can be found by clicking on + in the history panel, or by hitting CMD + S

In-place block swap

Rayon now offers the ability for users to exchange a block for another, directly on the canvas. More on this feature here.

Thomas Rowntree's new class

We worked this month with Thomas Rowntree, architect and educator, to build a 12 lesson lecture series, teaching how to go from 0 to 1 for any typical architectural project. The class can be found in the Tutorial section of the app.
