I am hoping Rej will be showing up soon with his Pleochroic rendering feature, have me some tri color tanzanites, axinites, kornerupine and andalucites to cut!

Anyone heard from Rej lately? I have been trying to get in touch with him.


Rej, are you out there and OK?



I passed on the message for you the other day. Did you hear from him?
He received my pm's from both here and ALF and said his email from his web page works just fine as well. :wink:
Oh and yes, he's okay. :D

It's been a while and this may be a complicated feature to debug, but...

Allowing the user to move facet tiers around in the Cutting Assistant subwindow would be helpful for workflow and design. If you see a problem with a cutting order you would be able to immediately fix it.
Would need to make it undo any facets of that tier that are already applied to the model, though, or it will get messy.

That's done in my dev build (no idea for release date though). It resets the progress to the start when you shuffle things around to be safe. You can then jump to that tier if you want.

I think we should do a kickstarter where we raise enough money to pay Rej's salary for a month so he can take a month off work and give us the new version of GCS asap. He showed me some of the new features and I am DROOLING :P

Yearly update subscription should work much better than any other funding. I will be first to subscribe just to get new features added.

Here is the one I really need today - is it possible to add auto-preform button, which will create preform sequence from girdle outline?

Thank you, Vlad.

Huh, thank you for already implementing it, and don't worry too much about a solid release date, this work has to be fit around other things after all.

You mean like a dev patreon? There's a couple of other platforms for that like subscribestar and onlyfans. I've seen a few people get big money that way but their niche was more around videogames than utilities.
