AdaCAD 4.0 - Beta

Includes new user interface layout, file saving on the cloud, simulation and images within notes to name a few changes.

AdaCAD 3.3.0

Flipped orientation to drafts (now computer from bottom up rather than top down).
Added support for operations that take inputs other than numbers (e.g. text, images, etc).
Created Dynamic Operations that can support attaching values to drafts on input
Created new operations for complex twills, smarter layer creation, creating rotational symmetry, and joining drafts in regular intervals.
Created new operation to upload an image (with small color set) and map drafts to the color regions.

AdaCAD 3.1.0

Additional Features for testing and generating drafts for in house ML training.

Fixed bugs on scrolling windows
Added some operations for cropping drafts
Added operations for generating based on frame-loom style drafting.
Added ability to bulk download drafts and/or show and hide drafts.
Added ability to name drafts (and have those names added on download).

3.0.0

This research merges our mixer development with the original weaver development to create a unified experience. Users begin in the "mixer" and can draw and generate drafts based on linking them together with operations. There are increased supports for zooming, saving, printing and one may also add comments to their files now.

To access what was once in "weaver" the user expands one of the many drafts in mixer. There, they can specify materials, view yarn paths, and download drafts as required.

AdaCAD 2.1.0

This release fixes some bugs existing on the prior release and adds additional support for designing with colors, visualizing yarn paths, and adding repeating bulk patterns to the warps and wefts.

This release also contains "mixer" which is very much in development but accessible when you run with /mixer in the url.

AdaCAD (Schacht Collaboration Release)

This major release extends the previous version of AdaCAD with additional features for Jacquard weavers as well as support for frame loom weavers. Feedback on this version has been generously provided by the Schacht Spindle Company and this release is specifically intended for early alpha-testing internally and with a small group of collaborators. This version adds specific supports for the following:

• modes for jacquard and frame loom style drafting.
• features for designing the drawdown through designs on the threading, tie up, and treadling
• ability to automatically update threading, tie up, and treadling from the drawdown (in real time).
• ability to add multiple warp systems
• copy/paste features on all aspects of the design, including weft/warp system specifications
• visual mode to see/edit the structure of the resulting fabric
• zoom in/out
• ability to save files as ".ada" (a specific format for our software), ".wif" (for integrating with other common weaving softwares), and ".bmp" for importing/exporting to and from Photoshop or integrating with TC2 looms.
• simple integration of undo/redo (still a bit buggy, but better than nothing in our opinion).
• updated collapsable toolbar and key commands for quickly switching between design tools.
• automatic warp number adjustments based on epi and width.
