Sep 1, 2025September 2025 monthly summary for repository defold/defold. Implemented a UI clarity improvement in Defold Editor by removing the 'open as code' option for binary resources and adding a 'view-types' helper to filter out the 'code' view type. This prevents binary assets from being displayed as code, reducing user confusion and the risk of accidental edits. The change enhances asset inspection workflows and aligns with UX best practices, tracked in the commit ae8f6f2664190c58c5a8ce66c33732cd73a3e00c (#11214).

Jul 1, 2025Month: 2025-07 — Defold Editor improvements delivering stronger usability and reliability. Key features delivered: - Editor Context Menu for Scene Objects: Adds a context menu with cut/copy/paste/delete and visibility toggle; integrated into existing command and menu systems. - Unified Rename Command and In-Outline ID Editing: Consolidates rename under :edit.rename; enables direct outline node ID editing with double-click to open and F2 rename. Major bugs fixed: - Grid Visibility Robustness: Avoids exception when the grid is absent by using maybe-node-value for grid access. - Nil-Safe Tree Selection: Filters nil items to ensure only valid selections. - Outline View Click Handling: Restrictions to primary mouse button to prevent unintended actions. - Outline View Rename/Context Menu UX Stability: Cancels ongoing rename on context menu request and consumes auto-hide events for predictable UX. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved editor reliability and user efficiency, reducing edge-case errors; streamlined rename and ID editing workflows; more robust selection and UI interactions, contributing to faster scene editing and fewer context-related regressions. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Editor scripting, UI/UX design, command pattern implementation, nil-safety handling, event-driven UI improvements, and usage of possibly-nil checks in runtime workflows. Business value: - Accelerates scene editing tasks, reduces user error, and stabilizes editor UX, enabling faster iteration cycles and safer changes.

Jun 1, 2025June 2025 monthly summary for defold/defold: Focused on UX improvements, rendering enhancements, and reliability fixes to boost editor productivity and debugging efficiency. Key features delivered: - Improved drag-and-drop in scene editor: z-plane intersection for accurate drop location and ensures dropped resources attach to the correct parent, improving project organization. - Render convex-hull point clouds for 3D physics modes: differentiates rendering between 2D shapes and 3D points; introduces a dedicated render-points function for clarity. - Code editor context menu: adds right-click actions (cut, copy, paste, select all) and refines cursor behavior for clicks outside the current selection. - Properties view drag handle usability: improves focus behavior, adds a visual cue, and hides the handle when the control is focused. - Curve color rendering improvements: refactors color handling to support alpha values and improve hue distribution for clearer visuals. - Configurable scene grid: introduces a configurable grid with UI settings and preferences integration to customize appearance and behavior. Major bugs fixed: - Tile data generation error reporting: replaces generic fatal errors with structured, node-specific feedback to aid debugging when tile data generation fails due to invalid values. - Linux layout restoration fix: fixes layout restoration issues on Linux by introducing a nested run-later rendering pass to ensure an initial rendering pass. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Substantial improvements to editor UX and visual clarity, reducing setup and debugging time, and increasing reliability across platforms. Clearer error reporting accelerates debugging and reduces mean time to fix (MTTF). Technologies/skills demonstrated: - 3D/2D rendering pipelines, UI/UX refinements, event handling, cross-platform reliability, and structured error reporting and configuration-driven UI.
