## Room Designer news

### Docking vector logic for improved snapping and docking in the room

We’ve added **docking vectors** to the Room Designer in Roomle, making snapping more powerful and precise. This enhancement allows for smoother alignment of furniture and design elements, improving the overall usability and accuracy of docking in the room.

### Rotation snap

We’ve introduced **snapping points for rotation** in the Room Designer, making it easier to achieve precise angles. While rotating, the current rotation angle is displayed for better control, and the tool now remembers the last rotation, allowing for seamless adjustments when you continue rotating. These improvements simplify the creation of clean and accurate designs.

### Remember the last floor and wall colours and set them as default

We’ve improved Room Designer by remembering your last selected floor material and wall colours. These are now automatically set as the default for any new rooms you create, streamlining the design process and saving you time when working on multiple rooms.

### Custom Sidebar for elements

We’ve added support for **custom sidebar drawers** in the Room Designer! Now, selecting an element in your scene can open a tailored view, providing options for configuring the object or embedding custom content. This functionality enables more interactive and flexible workflows for personalized designs.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.roomle.com/rubens/whats-new/2024/december-2024.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
