Changelog

New

• Added progressive low-zoom decluttering for rooms and editing chrome

Behaviour

• Very small rooms now hide label pills and use room-body selection as a fallback
• Small rooms hide resize handles before hiding more essential selection visibility

• Editing chrome is reduced when it becomes too small to be useful

Improvements

• Fit View now works more reliably for larger drawings

• resize-time dimension overlays

Improvements

• Measurement text scaling now adjusts related spacing and offsets to keep overlays balanced
• Settings controls now stack more cleanly on mobile and expand appropriately in the drawer

New

• Hold Alt/Option to temporarily invert the dimensions visibility setting

Improvements

• Added inline discoverability hint in Editor Settings for the temporary override

Behaviour

• Temporary override affects draw-time segment dimensions
• Temporary override affects draw-time width/height previews
• Temporary override affects wall resize dimensions
• Temporary override affects corner resize dimensions
• Room area beneath the room label pill remains visible

New

• Added a dimensions visibility setting in Editor Settings

Behaviour

• Dimensions visibility now controls measurement overlays during room drawing

• Separation clarified between persistent room label metadata and temporary measurement overlays

New

• Editor settings foundation introduced
• Settings button added to the editor toolbar
• Responsive settings surface with a dialog on desktop and a drawer on mobile

Improvements

• Global button press feedback now uses a subtle 0.97 press scale

• Improved accessibility for editor dialogs
• Introduced a responsive dialog wrapper for future settings and help surfaces

Architecture

• Added an editor settings model to the Zustand store
• Integrated settings persistence with the editor snapshot system

Live wall dimensions

Wall dimensions now appear during drawing and resize, giving clear live measurement feedback without cluttering the canvas.

• Added metric wall dimension calculation and formatting helpers
• Displayed live width and height dimensions while drawing rooms
• Displayed one live dimension during edge resize
• Displayed two live dimensions during corner resize
• Updated dimensions continuously from preview geometry before commit
• Matched dimension styling to the SpaceForge measurement system
• Polished placement, consistency, and readability across active drawing and resize interactions

Room area display

Rooms now display their calculated floor area directly on the canvas, making SpaceForge more useful for quick planning and sketching.

• Added metric room area calculation and formatting
• Introduced JetBrains Mono for measurement-style text
• Displayed room area beneath the room name in canvas labels
• Hid area text automatically on very small rooms to avoid clutter
• Polished two-line label layout and measurement readability
• Updated room area live during resize
• Added subtle live emphasis for area feedback during active resize

Reset camera

Added a reset-camera action that reframes the canvas around the current layout, making it easy to get back to a sensible view.

• Added reset-camera / fit-to-rooms action
• Framed all rooms using shared outer bounds with comfortable padding
• Added a smooth animated camera transition
• Made reset-camera interruption-safe during manual pan and zoom
• Added a toolbar control for quick access
• Improved no-rooms behaviour and reset-camera robustness

Room deletion

The editor now supports deleting the selected room, completing the basic room-edit loop.

• Added delete action for the selected room
• Added keyboard deletion with Delete and Backspace
• Prevented accidental deletion while typing in editable fields
• Integrated delete with undo/redo and persisted history
• Polished delete affordance in the selected-room panel
• Cleaned up focus and panel state after delete, undo, and redo

Persisted undo/redo history

Undo and redo history now survives refresh and browser restart, making the editor feel much more trustworthy during active work.

• Persisted undo/redo history alongside layout and camera state
• Restored history position and redo availability after refresh
• Preserved branch-after-undo behaviour across reloads
• Added bounded history persistence to prevent unbounded storage growth
• Improved hydration safety with explicit fallback behaviour
• Valid layout/camera now restore even if persisted history is invalid
• Added a narrow debug helper for clearing persisted editor state

Transform feedback

• Move and resize now share one coherent transform feedback system
• Active transforms keep the selected room anchored while the snapped destination preview moves independently
• Resize interactions now show the same original reference and destination feedback language as move

Polish

• Committed transforms now settle into place with a quick eased animation and a brief fading destination glow
• Room labels now animate with the settling room instead of jumping to the final position
• Transform pacing, easing, and glow tuning were tightened to make move and resize feel more consistent

Quality

• Transform preview state now clears more reliably across quick repeats, cancel paths, and end-of-interaction cleanup
• No changes to geometry rules, persistence, export, or undo/redo semantics

New

• You can now drag a room by its label to move the whole room
• Room movement is now fully grid-aligned, matching the editor's existing snap behaviour
• Active label drags now show a subtle ghost silhouette of the room's starting position

Improvements

• Clicking a room label still selects normally, with a small pointer threshold before drag begins
• Whole-room movement preserves room shape exactly while previewing the snapped destination live
• Each label drag still commits as one clean undoable move instead of multiple history entries

Quality

• Fixed a hydration mismatch on refresh when persisted editor state restored moved rooms on the client
• Move interaction feedback now clears cleanly on pointer up, cancel, blur, and missing-room failure paths

Export

• PNG export framing now auto-fits to actual room layout bounds instead of the live viewport
• Added export framing polish for very small layouts to keep composition visually balanced
• Export centering and spacing are tuned to keep breathing room, including when signatures are present

Quality

• Export PNG is now disabled on empty canvases to prevent blank downloads
• Disabled export state now explains the requirement with a tooltip: "Draw a room before exporting."

Internal

• Added reusable layout-bounds utilities for export composition
• Introduced dedicated auto-fit export framing utility for content-based camera setup

New

• Added contextual onboarding hints for drawing, selection, resize, undo, export, and panning
• Hints now persist dismissed and completed state locally
• Added a final panning hint with workspace navigation guidance

Improvements

• Hint cards now use stronger contrast and subtle enter/exit transitions
• Newly created rooms are selected immediately and ready for instant renaming
• Drawing mode now shows a crosshair cursor for clearer affordance
