Breaking Changes

  • build123d no longer has a transitive dependency on VTK. This is because build123d has switched dependency from cadquery-ocp 7.9 to cadquery-ocp-novtk 7.9 on this release. For users of certain jupyter-based workflows this may cause an issue when working with the new build123d==0.11.0 release. You are still free to separately install VTK which will re-enable the functionality provided by build123d's jupyter_tools.py. For further information and discussion please see the tracking issue #1337.

Compatibility Notes

These are compatibility-related changes that users should review. They are not necessarily all breaking changes.

  • Polygon now defaults to (Align.NONE, Align.NONE) instead of centered alignment by @jdegenstein in #1220.
  • Shape.is_planar_face is deprecated in d4bfeefe.
  • EllipticalCenterArc.end_angle is deprecated in favor of arc_size in efd5b130.
  • Face.make_plane() has been replaced by Face(Plane) by @snoyer in #1113.
  • split_by_perimeter has moved toward the 2D topology API and is now implemented for Face/Shell; the Shape method remains as deprecated compatibility behavior in 8405ee06.
  • .wrapped attributes on several classes were changed to read-only properties backed by private _wrapped storage by @snoyer in #1283.
  • Intersection and algebra operations now more consistently return dimension-aware build123d objects such as Part, Sketch, or Curve rather than exposing raw ShapeList results, using composite factory infrastructure in 46e53193.
  • Deprecated Color.to_tuple was removed in 083cb161.

Notable Changes

  • Major refactor and expansion of intersection support across 1D, 2D, 3D, and composite shapes, including broader intersect methods, improved result normalization, and more test coverage by @jwagenet in #1120 and @bernhard-42 in #1209.
  • Added ConstrainedArcs and ConstrainedLines 1D objects which are Arcs/Lines that are constrained by other objects by @gumyr in various commits.
  • Added new ConvexPolyhedron 3D object that creates a convex solid from the convex hull of the provided points by @gumyr in 7fb6e280. This provides similar functionality to convex hulls in OpenSCAD (faceted solids).
  • Added new BSpline 1D object defined directly from control points and knot data by @gumyr in ee375906.
  • Added ParabolicCenterArc and HyperbolicCenterArc by @kuravih in #1156.
  • Improved algebra-mode result handling so composite operations return dimension-aware Part, Sketch, or Curve objects instead of raw ShapeList results in 46e53193.
  • Continued VTK decoupling and OCP 7.9 preparation by @bernhard-42 in #1168.
  • Added linux-aarch64 as a supported platform for build123d by @jdegenstein in #1236.
  • Python 3.14 is also now supported as of this release.
  • Added Axis(..., end_point=...) construction for point-to-point axis definitions by @pranjalbhatia710 in #1322.
  • Added support for single-line fonts and a FontManager by @jwagenet in #1169.
  • Added BytesIO/file-object export support across SVG, DXF, STEP, STL, and 3MF workflows by @jdegenstein in #1141.
  • Added BREP and STEP export to binary file objects by @snoyer in #1185.
  • Added STL import rescaling support by @jdegenstein in #1227.
  • Improved glTF export label behavior by disabling automatic OCCT naming where it overwrote user labels by @voneiden in #1202.
  • Added Face.uv_face and Face.seams helpers for working with parametric face space in b6cfb1da and b0a1e07f.
  • Added import_dxf in a64430da.
  • Added and improved arc_size support across Circle, CenterArc, JernArc, and EllipticalCenterArc by @DaWeidmann and @gumyr in #1249 and related commits.
  • Improved fillet_2d and FilletPolyline, including 0-radius support and several previous failure cases in 6cb57464 and related commits by @AlexVerschoot and @gumyr.
