Version 1.1.0

December 28, 2024
We've added AI-powered text extraction so you can capture notes, material callouts, and specifications directly from your drawings. Just hold the X key while making a selection and the text gets added to your dimension table. You can either create a new balloon with just notes, or append text to an existing balloon. Multi-line text automatically formats with semicolons for clean CSV exports.
  • Added text extraction feature - hold X key in DIMENSION mode to capture text from drawings
  • Added row selection system - click "Select" button to target which balloon receives appended text
  • Added multi-line text formatting - line breaks automatically convert to semicolon separators
  • Fixed action column button layout - buttons now properly centered in table column
