nice, logarithms, thumbs up ! :)
keep up the good work

Beta 15:

* NEW: Thyme functions Math.log10 and Math.log (natural base).
* FIX: Issue with incorrect undo of attraction falloff (and possibly other attributes).
* FIX: Rotating an object around a hinge will no longer re-attach the hinge (or fixate).
* FIX: Bug where using scale tool would change selection after scaling was completed.
+ some fixes and tweaks

Really handy the pop-up that shows up with the scene desription.

#696248 - new (linear attraction lost)
#271031 - not fixed, updated info (script lost on undo/clone)
#774829 - not fixed (removing spring with shared endpoints)
#673538 - not fixed (invalid color allowed)
#688581 - not fixed - (hinge still reattach on rotate/move if it selected with geom)

Let's review bug report tickets before release...
I've post some new.

Beta 14! This is likely the last before the final release of 2.0.1!

Changes since b13 include:

* Cut tool in play-mode now
* Better switching to/from playmode with shift+space
* Hide/show windows with tab
* Focus is correctly given to widgets in the scene bar (left side bar).
* Fixed issue with scripted texture names
* Skin touch-ups, with clearer focus border.
* NEW: When loading a scene, a popup will show the scene description, if any.

Wow, checking back here after a while, just saw the updates which has given me some ideas about simulated 3d...
Nice work anyway though ;)

Beta 13, mainly fixing some issues with playmode, such as:

** Problems when unlocking Algodoo
** Problems when demo went overdue
** Nicer looking splash screen/about box in demo mode
** Added drag tool button to sim control, next to pan and zoom tools (must have for touch screens).
** Added sim info button in file menu

Good release!

Timed out my demo on purpose to if it activated properly, and well... GOOD JOB!
(been too lazy to find the license info...)
Play-mode button tool tip: misspelling of the word "which"
I also think that along with drag options, you should consider the "sim-info"... mainly for fps, sim-time and realtime %....


Fun fact: algodoo can register upto: "106751991167300d 15h 30m and 8s" usage time...

after checking out some normal algodoo behavior in playmode i found some ways to be able to create stuff,
ctrl-c ctrl-v still works, and putting code in the console works
maybe with some skill some players could still create stuff :)

Finally! Play mode here! That's the most of I exited about in Algodoo2. It's the most important for better spread.
Good job, Emil!

Play mode works very well, except for one thing.
Dragging works fine, but when you don't want to pull hard on an object you can't adjust the drag force.
So, maybe you could put the drag options back in.

By the way, I like the info of the Play mode: "... and not build."
Very very funny if you read it.
I mean the whole sentence is about what you can do in Play mode, but the last few words are about what you can't do.
It's like: You can do this and this, but you can't do that.
Or more like saying to someone: you can eat cookies, but you can't eat the chocolate on them.
Or: You can play with Lego, but you aren't allowed to build things with it. (do you get it??? Lego is about building things).
The shown tool info is so enormously funny if you think of it this way.

I like the Play mode, but I like the tool info even more!

algodoo is getting better every minute :)

* NEW: Ctrl-M now toggles hide/show windows.
* NEW: Play mode, accessible with button in menu-bar, or Cmd-Space.
* IMP: Nicer splash screen/about window with links to algodoo.com/algoryx.se
* FIX: Issue with fullscreen toggle moving the window outside the monitor.
* FIX: Issues with widget positioning when resizing widgets.

Play-mode!? What a cool feature!

b11:

* NEW: Ctrl-D now deselects everything in the scene.
* IMP: Re-enabled undo-merging of certain actions (drag, move, slider, texture, palette) when done within 10 seconds of last action of same type. Control with App.enableUndoMerge.
* FIX: Startup crash involving http://www.algodoo.com/algobox/details.php?id=59214
* Minor fixes and tweak

Thanks for the (very fast) update Emil!

Btw, please remember to update Readme.txt.

Beta 9 for windows uploaded, it has a few bug fixes and also a brand new crash reporter (called CrashRpt). It will ask you to send a crash report to algoryx if Algodoo crashes. This should hopefulyl help us solve such crashes in the future.

The changes in this edition are:

* NEW: Algodoo now uses CrashRpt (Windows only) to catch crashes and ask the user to send in a crash report to Algoryx.
* FIX: Issue with invalid characters in scene file name.
* FIX: Issue with expanding force description fields.
* FIX: Rare issue with large text fields not drawing top part.
* FIX: Added ellipsis (...) to large "surface" script menu attribute for polygons
* FIX: Big memory leak problem, from earlier beta

As usual, the first post has been updated.

Beta 8:

* NEW: Added helpful Thyme command "Scene.MakeModern" to update a scene:s settings to the modern Algodoo version. Will change simulation settings and legacyMode:s.
* IMP: Improved culling of small force/velocity/momentum arrows.
* IMP: Sim.positionsLast now true by default, fixing issue where the force arrows of moving objects would be wrong when simulation was paused.
* FIX: When a tutorial highlights a button in the GUI, the window containing the button will be moved on top of other windows.
* FIX: Saving a scene as alternative file name (e.g. "foo_0000.phz") will now change the scene title.
* FIX: Premature culling of hinge force arrows.

Get it while it's hot!

Man Emil, you are just busting out updates left and right! Nice job man! Hope they're paying you extra!

Still white. Is this only for my environment?

Oops - forgot to fix it

Will be fixed in next

Algodoo b7 got faster, again.
I am watching a movie, surfing on the internet and using Algodoo at the same time.
And with all this stuff at the same time, Algodoo still manages to start up in less than 2 seconds.
That's very good!!!
