Thanks for the reply! If this information were available on the landing page, I'd have felt a lot more comfortable investing the time to try the tool out. I do appreciate how far you can explore even without an account.

Couple more ideas for the landing page:

- Provide links to examples of generated exports in the formats you support, so folks can get a feel for how it might integrate into their workflow.

- The elements under "Everything You Need for Cable Design" animate as though they're interactive, but clicking them does nothing. Confused me for a bit.

- Page is very hard to read on mobile.

Other thoughts:

- I wasn't able to figure out how to pan the editor view around.

- Adding some sort of json/yaml/xml import/export would open up a lot more workflow possibilities. For example, I want to associate a harness version with a git tag, without needing to manually make a copy of a harness version in the app. Git (and/or github) integration would be great. Honestly, even an opaque blob export would be tolerable.



Thanks for the feedback, Gia - we were able to get a couple of the items on your list fixed in an update today.

To pan, click and hold the right mouse key (or wheel) and drag. Are you trying this from a tablet?

There’s now a blog section on the site: https://splice-cad.com/#/blog/splice-updates-july-2025 where we’re documenting changes, fixes, and future plans. The feedback from this post has been very helpful.


Super, I'll check it out. I'm on Firefox in Linux (Kubuntu) using a plain old mouse - pretty sure I tried a right click pan. I tried again and it still didn't work. Also- clicking around on the canvas I get: Uncaught ReferenceError: TouchEvent is not defined Ks https://splice-cad.com/assets/SvgPage.zgJCQbB-.js:302 Ia https://splice-cad.com/assets/SvgPage.zgJCQbB-.js:302


Finally fixed, along with some more updates here: https://splice-cad.com/#/blog/splice-updates-july-20-2025


Thanks for reporting, Gia - we added a repo to track issues on Github here: https://github.com/splice-cad/splice-cad-app/issues
