Project Report
- Student Name: Himanshu Sekhar Nayak
- GSoC 2022 Project: BRL-CAD GUI
Overview
- In this project, we have created a new mouse action known as select mouse action in which we are able to select the object in a .g file and it will return region name with the properties which will be displayed in the properties dock and the object name will be shown selected in the objects dock of arbalest.
- Also we have added a feature where the app will be able to show a dialog box if there are unsaved changes in the .g file before closing the tab or closing the app.
- Created a new interface for mouse action so in the future if any new mouse action is to be added then it can take benefit from the interface.
- Fixed some UI changes and added new icons.
