Once an object is selected, the corresponding component within the workspace is highlighted. Additionally, now, when you hover over meshes, including solids and surfaces, the mesh color changes and the cursor turns into a hand icon, signaling that the object is clickable. Moreover, we&#8217;ve introduced a multi-select feature, enabling you to select various objects\u2014such as points, curves, and boxes\u2014simultaneously by holding down the Shift button. This also automatically selects all corresponding nodes on the canvas, streamlining your design workflow with ease. The same is true for clicking and selecting the nodes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"BeeGraphy Editor: Object Selection Enhancements\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/R1xwXuY36ak?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Node_Disabling\"><\/span>Node Disabling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A new addition to this suite of updates is the Node Disabling feature, which offers users the ability to deactivate individual nodes within their scripts temporarily. This capability is particularly useful when iterating complex designs, as it allows for selective testing and troubleshooting without needing to remove or permanently alter parts of the script. By simply disabling a node, you can assess the impact of specific elements of your design without the computational load they might normally entail, leading to a more streamlined and efficient workflow. This feature not only saves time but also enhances the overall design process by providing greater control and flexibility.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"BeeGraphy Editor: Node Disabling\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5FX2srBJIIs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enhanced_Performance_with_2x_Speed\"><\/span>Enhanced Performance with 2x Speed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The latest BeeGraphy update delivers significant performance enhancements. Complex designs now render up to twice as fast compared to previous versions. This improved speed allows for smoother interactions and quicker prototyping cycles.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Loading_Progress_Indication\"><\/span>Loading Progress Indication<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Our latest update introduces a progress bar to our loading screen, replacing the previous animation-only indicator. This new feature provides users with a visual representation of how much of the file has loaded, offering clarity and reducing uncertainty during slower internet connections.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"BeeGraphy Editor: Loading Progress Indication\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4Q4mGmyV1iE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Live_Calculation\"><\/span>Live Calculation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The Live Calculation feature enables real-time visualization of changes as you move sliders, without needing to release the mouse. When enabled, your models will update instantly as you adjust parameters. If disabled, changes will only compute and display once you release your mouse after making adjustments. This live computation provides a fluid experience but can impact performance for complex or resource-intensive models. For lighter projects, Live Calculation allows seamless tweaking, but larger models may benefit from keeping it disabled to maintain optimal speed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"BeeGraphy Editor: Live Calculation\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p6xAR8BGZ9E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enhanced_Visualization_with_Shadows\"><\/span>Enhanced Visualization with Shadows<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The introduction of shadow rendering brings your models to life, offering a more realistic visualization of your projects. Choose from two shadow modes: add shadows on the ground plane for a simple effect or use cyclorama mode for shadows on both the ground and backdrop, creating a more immersive look. This feature improves the visual appeal of your projects and helps you understand how light interacts with your designs.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8692 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1238\" height=\"772\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03.png 1238w, https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03-300x187.png 300w, https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03-1024x639.png 1024w, https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03-768x479.png 768w, https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03-800x499.png 800w, https:\/\/beegraphy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-30-at-15.00.03-20x13.png 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1238px) 100vw, 1238px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Customizable_Camera_Control\"><\/span>Customizable Camera Control<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Imagine wanting to showcase your model from a particular angle or needing a 2D drawing to open with a top view by default. Previously, models would always load from a predetermined angle and zoom-to-fit, offering no flexibility. Now, BeeGraphy allows you to set the initial view according to your preferences. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n<p>Navigate to your desired viewpoint in the viewport.<br \/>\nHover over the camera icon and select &#8216;Save&#8217; to set this view as the default.<br \/>\nAnyone opening the file will initially see the model from your chosen perspective.<br \/>\nTo update this setting, click &#8216;Reset&#8217; to revert to the initial angle and zoom to fit the model, or navigate to a new desired viewpoint and click &#8216;Save&#8217; again to overwrite the previously saved position.<br \/>\nReturn to your custom viewpoint anytime by clicking the camera icon.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"BeeGraphy Editor: Customizable Camera Control\" width=\"1170\" height=\"878\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OuDOYX8Hn_c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solver_Controls\"><\/span>Solver Controls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>New functionalities have been added to the solver, granting users the capability to pause its operations. When the solver is paused, actions such as connecting or disconnecting wires and modifying values will not trigger computations. This improvement streamlines the handling of intricate algorithms and substantial data sets, ensuring a more efficient design process. To pause the Solver, simply click the \u2018Engine\u2019 button located in the lower left corner of the Editor. Click \u2018Engine\u2019 again to reactivate it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jlvid_container\"><iframe title=\"BeeGraphy Editor: Solver Controls\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/S5hrlS0NY8Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Configurator_Demo_Mode\"><\/span>Configurator &amp; Demo Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Earlier, in the Editor mode, you could only launch the Configurator mode. Now, additionally, there&#8217;s an option to open the Viewer mode (Demo mode) if you wish to test without altering any default values in the script.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, there&#8217;s another enhancement: both the Configurator mode and the Viewer mode (Demo mode) open in new tabs.
