What's New

Latest updates, improvements, and fixes to Wiring Studio.

1.6.21Latest
Cleaner Exports & Decimal Number Entry

  • fixExported design and wiring PDFs no longer include on-screen editing extras — selection outlines, drag handles, and connection dots are now left out so exports show just your harness
  • fixNumber fields like wire gauge, price, and multipliers now accept decimals typed with either a dot or a comma, so common metric gauges such as 0.35 and 0.5 mm² can finally be entered
  • fixAWG 0 is now accepted as a valid wire gauge
  • improvementForms now clearly explain why a value is rejected — invalid fields are highlighted with a readable error message instead of silently disabling Save

1.6.20
Cut List & Cable Label Fixes

  • fixThe cable layer editor no longer closes when you pick a wire for a filler — your layer arrangement stays intact
  • fixThe same wire run no longer shows up as two separate Cut List rows depending on which end it was drawn from — reversed pairs now merge into one row with the quantities added together
  • fixCovering part numbers on cables now always read left-to-right instead of appearing backwards on cables drawn in certain directions

1.6.19
Dark Mode Canvases & Auto Zoom-to-Fit

  • featureThe Design and Wiring canvases now follow dark mode — the canvas background and visuals adapt to your theme for a comfortable view in low light
  • featureYour layout now automatically zooms to fit and centers when you open a project or switch sheets, so the whole design is in view right away

1.6.18
Contact Arrangement Images for Connectors

  • featureAdd a contact arrangement image to any connector — upload or link the pin layout diagram from the library editor, then view it as a draggable, resizable panel right inside the pin config dialog while assigning cavities. The panel remembers its position, size, and collapsed state, and the diagram is included in PDF exports
  • featureRemove an assigned contact or seal from a cavity in the pin config dialog — hover over the assigned card and click the ✕ to clear it

1.6.17
Complete Undo on the Design Canvas

  • featureUndo now covers every design canvas action — moving, resizing, or deleting extra parts, toggling component labels, dragging cable and length labels, deleting parts and components, and auto-scaling the layout can all be reversed with Undo
  • fixReplacing a component's image now resizes its selection box to match the new image instead of keeping the old outline
  • fixComponent label selection boxes now line up with the label on flipped components instead of appearing offset and rotating the wrong way

1.6.16
Import Projects from Excel

  • featureImport a harness spreadsheet to start a new project — drop in an Excel workbook and an AI agent reads it and builds out the sheet for you, creating components, wiring connections, cables, connector cavities, and lengths. Watch progress live with phase updates and a streaming feed of each step as it runs

1.6.15
Copy & Paste on the Design Canvas

  • featureCopy and paste components on the design canvas — use Cmd/Ctrl+C and Cmd/Ctrl+V or the right-click menu. Pasted components appear near your cursor, and multi-selections keep their relative layout intact
  • fixComponent labels no longer jump or appear offset while rotating or resizing — they now follow the component smoothly throughout the interaction

1.6.14
Component Creation & Pin Config Polish

  • fixCavity labels now persist when typing the cavity count directly, matching how the stepper buttons already worked
  • fixExtra parts added to a component now appear at a sensible on-canvas size instead of rendering tiny, regardless of the source image resolution
  • fixComponents created from the design view now show up at the correct size in the wiring view
  • improvementPin config edits feel snappier — new connections appear instantly with no duplicate rows or blank frames

1.6.13
Splice Editing & Wiring View Selection Fixes

  • featureSplices, diodes, resistors, and other parent-only components can now be edited from the Properties dialog in the wiring view — update name, main part, parent, and accessories the same way you do for connectors
  • featureSplices in the wiring view can now be selected and resized along with every other node
  • improvementSelection box around splices now hugs the visible splice instead of an oversized invisible area
  • improvementWiring view selection box now stays correctly attached through resize, rotate, move, and zoom
  • improvementComponents inserted from the wiring view now start at a consistent on-canvas size

1.6.12
Cable Label Font Size & Pin Config Export Sorting

  • featureConfigurable font size for cable length labels — adjust label sizing to match your preferred level of detail on the design canvas
  • fixPin config exports are now sorted by component name for predictable, easier-to-read output
  • fixFixed component labels rendering at an unexpectedly tiny font size on the design canvas

1.6.11
Floating Inspect Panels for Design Nodes

  • featureSelecting a component on the design canvas now opens a floating inspect panel — edit the name inline, change main part, parent, and accessories, and run actions like flip, duplicate, pin config, save as component, or delete without right-clicking
  • featureMulti-select shows a grouped inspect panel with previews of every selected component and bulk Transform, Save as Component, and Delete actions
  • improvementPanning the design canvas no longer clears your current selection

1.6.10
Floating Actions Panel & Consistent Component Sizing

  • featureFloating actions panel on the design canvas — quickly create nodes, insert or save components, toggle labels, and auto-scale the layout without right-clicking
  • improvementNew components now insert at a consistent on-canvas size regardless of the source image's resolution

1.6.9
Reusable Components

1.6.7
Covering Part Numbers on Cables

  • featureCovering part numbers now appear directly on cable edges in the design canvas, making it easy to identify coverings at a glance

1.6.6
Cable Layer Editor

  • featureCable layer editor — manually assign wires to specific layers in concentrically twisted harnesses, set lay direction per layer, and add filler wires. Open it from the Layers button in the cable inspect panel
  • featureFiller wires are now included in BOM and Cut List with accurate cable edge lengths

1.6.5
Auto-Scale & Pin Config Fixes

  • improvementAuto-scale now preserves cable curve shapes — control points and tangent handles stay intact when scaling the layout to fit
  • fixFixed pin config destination options incorrectly hidden when multiple wires share the same target

1.6.4
Cable Curve Shaping & Connector Pin Layouts

  • featureShape cable curves with waypoints — click any cable to add a control point, drag it to reshape the curve, and double-click to remove it. Tangent handles let you fine-tune curves at any point, and Reset Curve in the context menu snaps back to default
  • featureConfigurable pin layout for connectors in the wiring view — choose from six orientations (left, right, top, bottom, left-right, top-bottom) via the connector context menu

1.6.3
Inline Cable Inspection & Size Override

  • improvementCable inspection now appears as an inline floating panel when selecting a cable on the design canvas, replacing the previous dialog opened via context menu
  • featureCable size override — manually control cable thickness from the inspect panel, bypassing the automatic wire-count-based sizing
