Worth noticing: The 1.7 update highlights IFC4 sharing, deployable tool panels, and direct placement of library items on model surfaces.

Field notes

The modeling workflow is described in concrete gestures: draw profiles, build architectural elements, organize them in layers, then drag a face to change its height or depth. The page also points to a library of 70 components and a Casa Farnsworth example. It presents the project as GPLv3+ and says users can work offline; these are claims on the homepage.
