3X Faster Jigs in web browser
Jigs shared to the web now load over 3 times faster before. Larger Jigs that previously struggled to load in browsers should now open easily, even when on slower internet connections.

Redesigned text boxes
With a cleaner new design, you can adjust corner rounding and padding on text boxes to suit anything from short headings, to longer bodies of text.

Simplified Team Sharing
Jigs that are shared with you 1:1 by a team mate for collaboration on editing or viewing, now appear in Team Jigs and filtered by 'Show shared with me'.
image
Multi-selection simplified
You can now select multiple objects across both the viewport and object list using the same hotkeys on the desktop apps:
  • Windows: Ctrl + Click
  • Mac: cmd / ⌘ + Click
Showcase
You can now present a focused, white-labeled set of your Jigs on Apple Vision Pro. The rest of the app disappears, viewers only see the Jigs you choose. Built for trade shows, experience centers, and training programs. You can filter your showcase using categories, tags, or offline Jigs.

Categories
You can organize your 3D presentations into categories to group similar topics together (like product lines, or training subjects). Jigs can be added to a category (similar folders) and be sorted into these categories. Categories also have a shortcut to launch into a showcase.

Remote Control Support
Launch a showcase from the Jig AVP Remote app on your iPhone or iPad to keep your guest viewers on Apple Vision Pro focused and undistracted.

Speed and performance
Jigs now become viewable and interactive sooner - approximately 25%-50% faster.
Text boxes
We've also updated the default design of text boxes. Creators now have more design options for rounded corners and text padding, so that they work for titles, information cards, and user interface components.
Apple Vision Pro app now has a dedicated downloads tab to make it easy to find your Jigs to present that you have already downloaded.
News_DownloadsTab
If you are offline and using your AVP, you will be directed to this tab. When presenting Jigs in low-speed public WiFi environments, it will be easier to find your downloaded Jigs too.
Offline Jigs can also be loaded via the remote from the new dedicated downloads tab on the Jig AVP Remote app.
Jig AVP Remote improvements
We've improved the ability to reconnect the AVP Remote to your device after taking the device off, and putting it back on again. This will help users in busy public WiFi environments like exhibition trade shows or customer experience centers.
We've made updates to our Apple Vision Pro app to support
animation and looping.
JigApp_3-44_News_Animations
Log into the JigSpace apps on Mac, iPad, or Windows to add animations, looping, and transitions to your Jigs!

Creating and editing on iPad, leveled up
iPad users now have access to the object property panel, to create interactive actions and camera viewpoints on each step.
iPad users can also edit using advanced transformation tools like snapping, pivot points, copy and paste formatting, and custom material and texture settings.

With actions, iPad users can add interactivity to 3D objects or UI that take viewers to another step in the same Jig, or open a website. Viewers of your Jigs on Apple Vision Pro can also be linked from one Jig to another Jig with actions.
On iPad you can now add a default camera viewpoint to any step in your Jig. This moves non-AR viewers to where you want them to see on each step when they transition from one step to another.
When moving objects around, iPad users can now snap 3D models together based on their surfaces or vertices, or snap them to the ground. You can also edit pivot points, adjust position, rotation, and scale transforms with numerical input, and edit material settings and texture effects, all on the go using the JigSpace iPad app.
Other improvements:
Help hints in the Jig editing workshop now contain short videos to make it easier to learn features while you're editing them, right when you need them.
You can now also open Jigs to edit from anywhere with deep-linking into edit mode, which opens the corresponding Jig directly in the Workshop on desktop, so you can jump from the dashboard or an email alert, straight into editing with one click.
We’ve also squashed a range of bugs that will improve performance and stability across the apps.
Better 3D asset management
image
Sort objects into categories to make it easier to find what you’re looking for, and share content across teams.
You can also save a model from the Jig apps back into a library category, edit its meta data, and enrich for future JigSpark AI features.
Object list is now on iPad
image
Easier to see everything in your Jig, select, hide, parent, rename.
Edit your Jig presentation’s scene root
image
If you need to scale, rotate, or reposition your entire Jig - you can now edit the overall Jig scene root instead of selecting all objects individually and transforming.
This is ideal for Jigs with many models in them, or content with a large real world scale like construction, rail, or aviation that need to transform many metres from one step to another.

Improvements to replacing objects and connecting directly to your team object library from Blender.
Other editor improvements‍
  • There is now more room to enter text in labels in the editor and we fixed a bug with scrolling through text.
  • Steps edit mode now automatically closes when selecting 3D objects, reducing unnecessary clicks.
  • Viewpoint button in the step tile no longer deselects your current object.
  • Spin tool now prevents enabling spin when speed or all axes are set to 0.
  • A range of bugs and general fixes were updated relating to performance, snapping, and materials.
Some small improvements to the JigSpace Vision Pro app:
  • Transparency improvements when navigating through a Jig steps and using the object list
  • Interactive actions are now less bright, which created some visual issues on objects that users can click to trigger an action like URL or go to step.
  • Update notifications: Now the app will tell users when a new update is available, and ensure you get the latest features as soon as possible.
Camera viewpoints
Each step of your Jig can now have a camera viewpoint that the camera moves to in your Jig when viewing Jigs in non-AR mode.
Right click menu
Desktop users can now right click to duplicate or delete steps in the timeline, replicate properties, or manage Jigs in My Jigs.
More right click commands will continue to be added with upcoming releases to ensure our power users have better access to tools when in-context.

Better hidden objects
Control the visibility of parts of your models on each step using the updated toolbar or object list.
image
To prevent accidental data loss, deleting is now restricted to removing an entire object from all steps in your Jig . This should help users from deleting parts of objects on a specific step, and then later wanting to undo or restore these parts, which is not possible. Now, you can hide an object easily, and "unhide" it on any step. We think this refresh is clearer and more intuitive.
Rename objects
When we import objects from your CAD files, their names are often messy, inaccurate, or meaningless. Now you can double click on any object in the object list, and rename it, making them easier to find, reference, and display.
