Current version

sketchometry with many new features and tools is currently available in version v2.3.4 (2025-02-07).

The previous version 1.5.3-legacy is still available.

Version history

sketchometry is continuously being developed. Some of the latest changes and bug fixes are listed below.

With this version, we are releasing a fully functional app for Apple iOS and iPadOS.

For technical reasons, when updating the iOS app to the latest version (2.3.3), constructions of already installed, older sketchometry versions (up to 1.5.3) were not transferred. This bug has now been fixed.

Of course, this version also brings a number of other improvements.

This version fixes a serious error that prevented the import from working.

Some improvements have also been made to the iOS app: For technical reasons, when updating the iOS app to version 2.3.2, constructions from older sketchometry versions (up to 1.5.3) that were already installed were not transferred. This should be prevented in future (for more information, see the app release notes).

We are proud to announce the new version 2.3.2 of sketchometry. This version is preparing for release as an app for Apple iOS and padOS.

It also includes a few bug fixes, e.g. when dragging texts and measurements. When entering texts and function terms, the keyboard is now opened automatically. The input can be submitted via Enter.

This release fixes a bug that occurred when version 2.3 was released.

We are proud to announce the new version 2.3 of sketchometry. This version includes major improvements in the internal management of object properties.

In addition, some minor changes and improvements have been made, including:

  • Show the term of a function in the properties as MathJax.
  • Prevent the lower limit of a function graph from being above the upper limit.
  • Add some properties for the axis ticks.
  • Focus the input field when opening the editor (e.g. function term input).

Version 2.2.2 is being released today.

This version contains many improvements and bug fixes, not all of which can be listed. Here are just a few highlights:

  • When exporting as an .html file, MathJax and the sketchometry font will be included.
    This means that measurements and texts can also be displayed correctly here.
  • In the gesture preview, a better distinction is made between “perpendicular line” and “perpendicular segment”.
    In addition, the recognition of these two gestures has been significantly improved.
  • The layout and manipulation of polygons has been improved.
  • In addition, there are many other internal improvements that make sketchometry even faster and more efficient.

Have fun with the new version!

The sketchometry Apple and Android apps will also be updated very soon. By the end of January at the latest!

The sketchometry team wishes everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The version 2.2.1 brings some bug fixes and improvements. These include normal, perpendicular (segment) and reflection.

sketchometry 2.2 is now available. This version brings a number of new features and improvements. sketchometry is now available in Italian (it). Some other languages have also been updated.

The most important new features

  • It is possible to adjust the number of decimal places
    • In the entire board.
    • At the object itself (measurement, text, slider or ruler).
  • You can edit the font size of all objects on the board at the same time now.
  • There are three ways to draw tangents (T gesture):
    • A “free” tangent to a circle, a function graph or a curve without additional objects.
    • A tangent (to a circle, function graph or curve) through an existing point on the object (slider or intersection point).
    • A tangent to a circle through a point outside the circle.
  • There are now also more options for normals and perpendicular segments (L gesture):
    • A “free” normal to a segment/line, a circle, a function graph or a curve without additional objects.
    • A normal (to a segment/line, circle, function graph or curve) through an existing point on the object (slider or intersection point).
    • A normal or perpendicular segment to a segment/line through an existing point outside the segment/line.

Improvements

  • It is possible to edit the properties of mirrored function graphs.
  • The tangent, normal and mirror gestures are now recognized better.
  • More than one board are now also exported as a .sketcho file. This makes importing much easier.
  • If only one axis is shown, the 0 is displayed.

There are also some minor bug fixes and improvements.
