Week 4

Greetings again!

During this past week, the focus has been on bug fixes and feature improvements. There is one new feature, however. Details are coming your way:

Bug Fixes;
  • Fixed a bug where tapping the back button on the 2D details page would crash the app.
Improvements:
  • Added an activity spinner in 2D details page to inform the user of loading the image.
  • Added a non-floating custom header view in the settings page.
  • Reduced the number of segments in the color segmented control from 4 to 3 in order to reduce the clutter of UI elements.
  • Improved the JSON fetch process to only show projects in the 2D grid page.
New Feature:
  • Added a horizontally-scrollable color picker interface in the main 3D viewer to allow a greater range of color selection.
    • Color Picker
    Thanks for viewing and see you next week!

Week 8

Greetings, During this past week, I've made much progress on both the iOS and Android ports of 3D Visualizer. For iOS, I added a feature which allows the user to import the 3D model from a third party source (e.g. email attachment or iCloud Drive Documents) into the app and visualize it. The user will have options to save/delete the model on device.  I consider this as a very important addition to the features this app provides, as the user can design their wigwaams on the CSDT website, export the STL file, and then visualize it with the app. As for Android, I've started making the UI for this app. Here's a snapshot:                                                      Thanks for viewing!

Week 5

Hi All! This week I spent more time being a graphic designer rather than being a programmer, as I watched a couple of WWDC videos on app icon design, and crafted an icon for this 3D visualizer app. I thoroughly laid out the design on the official Apple icon grid. Eventually, a design I really liked came out: In addition, I crafted a new feature and fixed a few bugs: New feature: Added a switch in settings so that the user can use the slider for two purposes:  Adjust the intensity of the light illuminating the model Adjust the color temperature of the light illuminating the model Bug Fixes: Fixed a bug where the images in the 2D model image grid would randomly change when scrolling Fixed a bug where the checkmarks in the settings page would randomly appear and disappear Thanks for viewing and have a wonderful week!

Week 6-7

Hi, I spent the Spring Break learning Android programming, and am continuing to learn more. Once I've learned what I needed, I'll start making an Android version of the 3D visualizer. During the break, I've also fixed a few more bugs and added more features to the iOS version: Fixed a bug where a lack of internet connection would crash the app Fixed a bug where the section headers for Scene Settings would disappear on iPad Added a feature to allow the 2D grid view on iPad to adjust the size upon screen width change, in order to facilitate split view experience Added an internet activity indicator in the status bar to alert the user that the app is fetching data from the internet.
