Release Notes

Adjustable objects

• Adjustable objects — rack cases, tents, pallet stacks — things that grow out of a handful of parameters, and can be laid out in a row in one go
• A tiled surface is ground: things standing on it are no longer hidden behind it
• More assets in the library

Tiled surfaces, mode bar, annotation tools

• Surface arrays — LED walls, carpet, stage decks — paint the cells and the panel count falls out
• More assembly types — a type picker, plus rope barriers, control-desk barriers and low barriers
• Dimension lines are drawn point to point — and can measure the straight-line distance between two points at different heights
• Annotation leaders move as a whole — for when both ends are right and only the position is wrong
• The mode bar was rebuilt — which tool you are in and how to leave it are both on screen, and clickable
• 3D shapes, project swatches, an outline panel, free panning
• Assets can be browsed by scenario
• Site units and annotation defaults are configurable

For anyone opening it the first time

• Onboarding
• The feedback form was rebuilt — pick a category, attach a screenshot, and send the current project along with it
• Cable routing says which surface a point landed on, and how high
• The “Find Luxmin” entry is back

Billing runs itself

• Access opens the moment payment clears — cancelling takes effect immediately — no waiting on a human
• Cancel your subscription yourself — in account settings
• Sign-in has a bot check
• One language preference across the whole site
• System emails are bilingual
• “My projects” is searchable

Assemblies, and height

• Assemblies — truss, uprights and anything else cut to catalogue lengths — draw a path and it works out how many pieces, and which
• Height off the ground — objects can be raised, not just sat on the floor
• Cable routing works vertically
• An English home page — misea.app/en
• The home page gained a feature demo you can play with

Files you can hand over

This release rebuilt export end to end. What used to leave as a picture now leaves as a document.

• Vector PDF — sharp at any zoom, and the text is real text — searchable and selectable
• Bill of materials as XLSX — three worksheets, straight into a spreadsheet
• The export dialog was rebuilt — formats on tabs, WebP added, and it remembers what you picked last time
• Version history — Pro
• Title block — firm name and drawing status (draft / in review / issued) are fields you fill in
• The drawing can be in a different language from the interface — work in Chinese, hand over in English
• Item marks printed on the drawing

Projects get their own URLs; the interface gets a second language

• One URL per project — bookmark it, send it to yourself, and it opens on that project
• “My projects” is its own page
• Interface languages — 繁體中文 and English
• Things can sit on other things — a person on a stage, a device on a table — the position follows whatever is underneath
• Retiring an asset no longer breaks drawings that already use it
• New home page copy and pricing

Assets get fixed identities; canvas handles follow convention

• Asset identities are fixed — renaming, recategorising or resizing an asset never touches a drawing you have already made
• Facing replaces mirroring — a device carries front, back, left and right artwork — turning it swaps the drawing instead of flipping it
• Multi-select edits together — select a batch, change it once in the right-hand panel
• Transform handles were rebuilt to convention — scale from the four corners, one entry point for rotation, anchored on the opposite corner rather than the centre
• A keyboard-shortcut reference
• Cable occlusion is correct on all four site types
• Bills of materials can be named
• Type scale, corner radii and hit areas condensed into one set
• Asset files got much smaller — 3D to isometric now goes through tracing

Renamed to Misea

The product was named Misea and moved to misea.app. Before that it had no name of its own; it was an internal Luxmin tool. The home page was redesigned at the same time.

Sites are no longer a single rectangle

• Custom site shapes — L-shaped, with columns, irregular — all of them drawable
• Depth sorting — objects and walls work out what covers what from where they stand
• Walls step aside — a wall in front fades out so you can see what is behind it
• Read-only viewing
• Opening one project in two tabs is blocked, so they cannot overwrite each other
• New projects are named automatically
• Deleted projects go to a bin instead of disappearing

Cloud first, and plans

• The storage model became cloud-first — the cloud is the only project library, and edits push themselves up. The browser keeps one offline buffer — close the tab or lose the network and the work is still there next time
• Free and Pro plans
• Project quotas: 3 on Free, 100 on Pro

From one file to a website

After this release Misea had a URL, an account, and for the first time a way to hand a drawing to someone else.

• Email sign-in — no password to set; click the link in the email
• Cloud projects — save, open, rename, delete, with thumbnails in the list
• Share links — a read-only URL that opens without an account
• The product home page
• Terms of service, privacy policy and refund policy, in Chinese and English
• How you turn the view while working no longer changes the composition of the drawing you hand over

Tablets and phones, snapshots, bills of materials

• Tablets and phones — touch gestures, a mobile layout, add to home screen
• Snapshot gallery — save where you are, then pick a version back by its thumbnail
• Purchased parts — an object with real dimensions is drawn 1:1 and goes straight into the bill of materials
• Renaming a project no longer means opening the manage dialog
• The drawing legend became a grid of symbols

The first editor

Misea's first version, back when it was a single HTML file used inside Luxmin.

• An isometric canvas: drag assets onto the site, place them, turn them
• An asset panel: figures, devices, basic shapes
• Cable routing and dimension annotations
• Drawing output, with a legend
• Keyboard shortcuts
