Current features
- Support of multi-documents, user can open many files in the session
- Support of STEP/IGES assemblies(product structure and colors)
- Area and volume properties for meshes and shapes

- Editable 3D properties of the imported items, eg. material, color, display mode, ...
- 3D clip planes with configurable capping
- 3D view cube providing intuitive camera manipulation
- Perspective/orthographic 3D view projection
- Save image(snapshot) of the current 3D view

Build instructions
Mayo requires Qt5 and OpenCascade ≥ 7.3.0
It uses the CSF_OCCTIncludePath and CSF_OCCTLibPath environment variables to locate
OpenCascade include and library paths. On Windows these two variables are set by the env.bat
script which can be found within OpenCascade's base folder, it is recommended to run this script
and then build Mayo :
cd .../mayo
qmake
(n)makeIn case you don't want to run OpenCascade env.bat you can use the CASCADE_INC_DIRand CASCADE_LIB_DIR
qmake variables instead :
qmake "CASCADE_INC_DIR=occ_include_dir" "CASCADE_LIB_DIR=occ_library_dir"
