I have a quick update to share on Dasher, today: I've just pushed live a version to the main Dasher site that enables a core Forge viewer extension to perform visual clustering of model contents. I talked about this back at the beginning of the year, but there was a core change needed to the […]

I have the sense that I'm seeing my face too much at the moment (admittedly I'm very attached to it… haha). All I can say, in my defence, is that over the last few weeks I've started to receive more requests to participate in virtual activities. And I've mostly said yes, as it's a reasonable […]

As a follow-up to the last post which talked about SimAUD and it's going online, today I wanted to mention some other online resources that might also be of interest to people during these times. The Institute of Technology in Architecture (ITA) at ETH Zurich is one of many institutions that have moved their public […]

For two of the last three weeks I've been lurking in virtual Forge Accelerators: as I mentioned last time, the Forge team has pivoted to virtual events after this year's Accelerator in Sydney was forced online due to a COVID-related office closure. (Incidentally I need to get used to the team's new name: they recently […]

Last week I talked about an API that we've added to Dasher, allowing it to be controlled via URL parameters. I expect this to be useful when integrating Dasher into other systems – as you can control the initial view of data, such as for a particular sensor during a specific time period – but […]

In the last post I neglected to remind people of Kiosk Mode, a great way to see some of Dasher's features. Simply click on the filmstrip button at the bottom of Dasher's vertical toolbar and move the cursor off to the side (this just stops the button from staying highlighted when the cursor gets hidden). […]

After many months of effort, we now have an updated version of Project Dasher available on dasher360.com. (The project is still very much active research, so for now you're able to try it out with the model of the NEST building, accessible via the Demo button on the main page.) The major feature of this […]

For the last week or so I've been busy making sure Dasher works well with multiple themes. You can see the progress across these posts. I'm not quite ready for a full unveiling, but it should go live at some point in the next week, give or take. In the meantime, here are some screenshots […]

Despite the unfolding horror of the situation with Covid-19 – and stuff is really starting to hit the fan, here in Switzerland, with schools and non-essential commerces being closed and rumours of an enforced sequestration being considered – I'm at least getting some quality time to work on Dasher. Last week we saw how it […]

Last time we saw how it's possible to use Autodesk's HIG to add different visual themes to a Forge viewer application. When I first started down this path, I thought I'd probably just stop at implementing another dark theme inside Dasher: I suspected it would be a lot of work to implement a light theme. […]
