whitequark: got another "NaN Ref". email pending.
<whitequark>
the console output can be ignored, it's almost certainly unrelated to your errors
<flip214>
Is there a way to reorder the layers yet?
<whitequark>
nope, and it's unlikely there will be a way any time soon
<whitequark>
(personally, i think that an ability to reorder groups is at best a workaround even if it existed, and there are likely better solutions through UI or workflow improvements that reduce the need to do so in first place)
<flip214>
well, creating a solid and cutting it via another solid and difference, but then seeing that something else should have been cut too (but via another workspace) ain't possible now
<whitequark>
yes, i understand
<whitequark>
i don't mean that i'm fundamentally opposed to a reorder feature. i just think that the actual experience would be sub-par because a lot of things would just get deleted
<whitequark>
at the moment the focus of my work on solvespace (which is unfortunately sparse) is on fixing systems/portability issues and on getting 3.0 out
<flip214>
and making a circle => cylinder with some length and another with same base point, I can't make the top circle centers ident - the length constraint becomes unsatisfied, although I can move the inner's center up and down
<flip214>
reordering between unrelated thing should be possible... even more so as having not the top-most workspace active and creating a new one mixes that one inbetween (unexpectedly)
<whitequark>
that last thing might be something we want to revert
<whitequark>
I haven't anticipated just how many problems it would create
<flip214>
well, if you know that this will happen it's okay...
<whitequark>
mhm
<flip214>
although any further operations (like extrusion) get appended again, and so that won't work for differences etc.
<flip214>
or just make the layers re-sortable ;)
<whitequark>
technically speaking, doing this change is a simple matter of adding UI for manipulation of groupOrder
<whitequark>
if I remember that code correctly
<flip214>
I now have 4 layers: 2 for circles, 2 for extrusions, to get a hollow cylinder. Can I replicate this solid without replicating all other layers' solids?
<whitequark>
can you file the slvs file with the nan REF as an issue so it doesn't get lost?
<flip214>
I guess I need to have these in a separate document and import the whole as assembly
<whitequark>
or so that other maintainers can look at it

<whitequark>
yes, I think more robust assembly support would obviate a lot of the group ordering issues
<flip214>
whitequark: well, TBH I wouldn't like my drawings floating around the internets.
<whitequark>
i don't really like the position of providing personal unpaid support for this kind of issue, plus there's the simple fact that i don't have that much time lately

i'll take a quick look in case there's an obvious cause
<flip214>
well, I'd think it might help to iron out bugs that you might see commercially too
<flip214>
thanks!
<flip214>
and being able to change numbers directly via clicking and entering (eg point coordinates) would be good as well
<whitequark>
my work is almost entirely volunteer (in fact I spent much more of my personal cash improving SolveSpace than I got from license fees)
<whitequark>
... hm
<whitequark>
well, i found an unrelated bug
