We've made many performance improvements to the JigSpace app for creators and new users to ensure a faster experience.

Faster performance

We've made speed improvements across a range of areas in our core creator tools:

• Your list of Jigs in My Jigs and Team Jigs load much faster. Up to 10X faster for large libraries.
• Free object library loads faster.
• 3D asset pipeline processes up to 30 seconds faster for typical CAD files.
• Loading and saving Jigs in the JigSpace native app is noticeably faster.

Snap to floor

With snap to floor, you can now place any object directly on the ground with a single click or keyboard shortcut. This is a very common workflow when editing Jigs to appear in augmented reality or immersive spatial modes in Apple Vision Pro.

Offline mode

If you are a desktop app user on Windows and Mac you can now save your Jigs for offline viewing, for when WIFI is unavailable or your have a poor connection.

To save a Jig for offline viewing:

1. Go to My Jigs or Team Jigs
2. Click on any Jig to show the hero panel
3. Click ... menu in the top right corner
4. Toggle on "Available offline".

Other improvements and bug fixes

• Scaling objects with the toolbar gizmo has been improved
• Improvements to caching
• Sometimes labels always showed when they should not
• Gizmo scaling when in orthographic view
• Improvements to multi-user-editing

Snapping

After many years, of patiently waiting, we did it! When creating 3D presentations in the JigSpace desktop app for Windows and Mac, you can now easily snap 3D models together based on their surfaces or use vertex snapping to connect objects by two points or edges.

You can also set pivot points with a single click on any surface or corner, helping your models move and animate more naturally.

Importing hierarchy, groups, and assemblies

When creating 3D presentations from CAD, like SolidWorks or Blender, JigSpace now automatically imports your existing model hierarchy, groups, assembly structure and pivot points to save you time getting started with each new model or project.

You can see the object list and manipulate your models on the JigSpace desktop app for Windows and Mac.

Empty meshes that parent a group of child objects together are represented as a new dashed-line circle icon, and can have their pivot origin, position, rotation, and scale transformed to enable easy-transformation of entire groups of objects in one go.

Learn more about using the object list.

Creating Jigs with snapping and the object list are only available on the JigSpace app for Windows and Mac. Download the latest version today.

Importing pivot points automatically

When importing a CAD file or 3D model to JigSpace, the original pivot points of mesh objects are now preserved in your models. This should save you time re-doing technical design when your mechanical design files already have this information in them.

If you want to reset placement, use the new buttons to easily switch between object center and original pivot.

These pivot origins in your models, and any additional edits you make, can be saved to your team library and re-used by your team across multiple Jigs.

Editing pivot points requires using the JigSpace app for Windows or Mac.

New platform capability

This new improvement to importing 3D assets is the first of many new platform capabilities you can expect to see made available in the coming months, with importing assembly hierarchies and parent-children relationships into your object lists, mesh material settings, and textures in progress to be available soon.

New: Object List Viewer

With the object list viewer, you can now manipulate and control the objects and 3D models in your presentation in a familiar hierarchical interface while being immersed with your content in Apple Vision Pro.

‍Granular Control: Dive deep into your models and take control of individual objects like never before. The object list viewer shows all the objects within your Jig, allowing you to select and manipulate them with precision.

Transparency Adjustment: Fine-tune the transparency of each object independently, revealing hidden details or highlighting specific components. This feature is perfect for understanding complex internal parts or showcasing the inner workings of your models on the fly.

Object Visibility: Toggle the visibility of any object in your scene, focusing on areas of interest or decluttering your view. This is especially useful when working with large or intricate models, where you may want to isolate specific parts for closer inspection or hide exterior parts to show hidden parts behind them.

The object list will remain visible on any Jig you view unless you disable the object list being shown in the viewer settings by toggling it off in the same settings menu.

Opt-in only: As a content owner, your Jigs will only have this feature if you add the tag "__objectlist" to your Jig info and saving. If you do not wish your viewers to be able to use an object list with your Jigs, you do not need to change anything.

New: Full rotation

Unlock the full potential of design reviews, learning, and collaboration with our enhanced rotation controls.

Full 3D Rotation: Navigate your Jigs seamlessly across all three axes (X, Y, and Z) for more freedom of movement when interacting and manipulating your Jig on Vision Pro. With full 3D rotation, you can view your models from any angle, turn them on their side or rotate around horizontal axis to gain a more understanding of their structure and design.

Enable in the settings menu

Enable "Full Rotation" in the Settings menu while viewing a Jig to activate this feature. This allows you to choose between the default rotation behavior and the new full 3D rotation, depending on your preferences and the specific Jig you're working with.

Full rotation will remain enabled on any Jig you view unless you disable the setting by toggling it off in the same settings menu.

Improved: Support for imported pivot origins

This update also supports viewing Jigs on Vision Pro that have meshes with automatically imported pivot origins, a feature available in the upcoming versions of JigSpace for Windows, Mac, iPad, and iPhone (3.34).

This enhancement ensures that your Jigs behave consistently across all devices, regardless of how they were created.

JigSpace is constantly improving with new tools that give creators more control, teams more flexibility, and spatial experiences more depth. Whether you’re explaining complex technology, demonstrating an assembly, or training the next generation of engineers, these updates help you get more out of Jig.

Parenting and object hierarchy

Now you can drag and drop objects into parent-child hierarchies, making advanced animations and transformations easier than ever. Organize complex assemblies like robotic arms, mechanical parts, or fasteners into logical groups to streamline your workflow. With parenting, keeping large models structured is effortless, and animations feel more natural.

Orthographic camera views

Easily switch from default 3D perspective when editing to new top, front, and side orthographic views using hotkeys (2, 3, 4) or the default canvas menu.

These views help you align, position, and transform objects with accuracy, especially when working with pivot points or aligning multiple models together. Whether refining an industrial prototype or preparing technical training content, orthographic views make spatial design sharper and smarter.

Add “Go to Jig” actions for Apple Vision Pro

Connect multiple Jigs into an interactive, continuous experience using the new ‘Go to Jig’ action. When clicked, objects transition seamlessly to another Jig, keeping users in immersive mode on Apple Vision Pro. This is perfect for breaking large models into smaller, digestible pieces or creating branching, choose-your-own-path training modules. A breadcrumb trail helps users navigate back, making it easier than ever to explore complex ideas in spatial format.

Team admin role

A new Team Admin role gives you complete visibility over all content owned by your team. In addition to transferring Jigs, manage users, and organize projects with ease in the redesigned web dashboard, Team Admins can now filter their Team Jigs in the JigSpace apps to show all Jigs owned by the team, Jigs not shared with the team, or the default Jigs shared with the team.
