What’s new at JigSpace

You can now view rich text formatting in labels and instructions on Jigs when viewed in Apple Vision Pro. If you have already added formatting to your text, there is no action to take, your Jigs will work as expected.

Formatting you can add to text labels and text instructions includes:

• Text size
• Text color
• Bold
• Italic
• Underline
• Hyperlink

Learn how to add rich text formatting to text in your Jigs.

Note: rich text formatting does not apply to 3D text boxes.

New 'offline mode' enables you to download Jigs to view later without internet access, or when internet connections are poor, such as large events, remote locations, or during air travel. This also provides greater reliability when you’re on the go currently tethering to an iPhone hotspot or guest Wifi.

You can download any Jig that is yours, your teams, or that has been shared directly with your JigSpace account.

To download your Jigs to view offline, follow these steps:

• Ensure you are signed into your JigSpace account
• Tap on the Settings button in the main menu
• Select 'Manage offline Jigs'
• Tap the download icon on each Jig that you want to view offline
• These will download one at a time
• When complete, tap 'Manage offline Jigs' again.

Downloading and viewing Jigs offline requires a Vision Pro subscription.

We’ve added more capabilities to our Vision Pro app to bring Jigs you create up to the same parity of capability as when you view them on iPhone, iPad and web browser.

Text labels on Vision Pro

Now when viewing on Vision Pro, any Jigs you create containing text boxes and text labels attached to an object will now appear in immersive spatial views. You can set these text labels to always appear, or only when tapped. 

Follow the interactive demo below to see how this works.

Text boxes on Vision Pro

Text boxes in your existing Jigs will no display on Vision Pro.

Text boxes are very flexible and can be used to add titles, custom annotations, and detailed information panels anywhere in your Jigs. They can have color, and material backgrounds added, or set to transparent to integrate with your other 3D content.

We’ve also improved the performance and reliability of Jigs with pull-apart settings enabled, as well as other important bug fixes.

• View all the Jigs created and shared by your team in the ‘Team Jigs’ tab, and any Jigs shared directly with you from a teammate in the ‘Shared with me’ tab.
• Switch between teams, if you are a member of two or more teams, by tapping on your team name in the main menu.
• You can reload your Jig from the app settings menu while viewing a Jig to get its latest version. This will help creators who want to edit on desktop or iPad and view on Apple Vision Pro simultaneously.
