 * quick add primitives: cube, cylinder
 * control wireframe transparency
 * parameterize png image import
+* code added to show camera focal point
 * ~ undo / redo for some operations
-* ~ show camera focal point
+* better Z split snapping using vertex closest to mouse
-* ~ better Z split snapping and split at defined Z index
