BoundaryLogic Trace 2.3.0 is here! This release delivers a completely rebuilt map interaction experience. Selecting, dragging, and managing your plots is now faster, more intuitive, and more powerful than ever.
Whats New?
Unified Map Interaction
We removed the separate Pan and Select tools from the toolbar. You now interact with the map using a single, unified mode. Click and drag on empty space to pan. Click a plot to select it. Click and drag a plot to reposition it. No tool switching required.
Plot Highlighting
Plots now respond visually when you interact with them. Hovering over a plot highlights it with increased fill opacity and a glow effect around the boundary lines. Clicking a plot selects it with a bolder, more prominent highlight. This makes it easy to see exactly which plot you are working with at any given moment.
Drag Any Part of a Plot
Previously, you could only drag a plot by clicking its filled interior. You can now grab and drag a plot by any visible component — boundary lines, commencement lines, or the filled area.
While dragging, all components of the plot move together: the polygon fill, boundary lines, call points, and plot label. A hit-box around the cursor makes it easy to grab thin lines without pixel-perfect accuracy.
Auto-Open Tract Card on Selection
When you click a plot on the map, the sidebar automatically opens to the Manage Layers panel and expands the selected plot’s tract card. If the sidebar is collapsed or you are on a different panel, the app navigates you there automatically with a smooth animation.
Selecting a different plot collapses the previous tract card and expands the new one. Your expanded/collapsed accordion state is also preserved across page refreshes.
Right-Click Context Menus
Right-clicking on a plot opens a Plot Context Menu with quick access to common plot-related actions:
- Disable Plot
- Edit Calls
- Move Plot to Location
- Lock/Unlock Plot
- Rotate Plot
- Rename Plot
- Set Plot Color
Right-clicking on empty map space opens a Map Context Menu with map-level actions:
- Change Map Style
- Change Default Map Style
- Fly to Project Anchor
- Enable/Disable PLSS Grid.
Keyboard Shortcuts
You can now trigger plot actions directly from the keyboard when a plot is selected:
- M – Move Plot to Location
- L – Lock / Unlock Plot
- C – Set Plot Color
- RÂ – Rotate Plot
- QÂ – Rename Plot
- E – Open Call Editor
- Delete – Disable Plot
Undo (Ctrl+Z) and Redo (Ctrl+Y) continue to work regardless of selection state.
Tract Card Menu Reorganization
The three-dot menu on each tract card in the sidebar has been restructured into organized sections: View, Plot Actions, and Document Actions.
New menu items include Edit Calls, Rotate Plot, Rename Plot, Try Document Again, Download Original Document, and View in Document Table.
Default Anchor Point Setting
You can now set a Default Anchor Point when creating a project or on the Project Anchor settings page. Choose whether newly uploaded or manually created legal descriptions are positioned by their Point of Commencement (default) or Point of Beginning.
Existing projects default to Point of Commencement, matching previous behavior. No existing plots are affected by this change.
Move Plot by Reference Point
The Move Plot to Location dialog now lets you choose whether to move the plot by its Point of Beginning or Point of Commencement. This applies to both manual coordinate entry and the “Move to Project Anchor” action. If the legal description does not have a Point of Commencement, the option is not shown.
