**1.5. Added wall display options in Render Studio**

Hide interior/exterior wall options have been added to the Editor and Render Studio. In Render Studio, wall transparency settings are reflected directly in the rendering results, enabling wall transparency (culling), interior wall hiding, and exterior wall hiding renders.

**Render output**

#### 2. Modular | Parametric Editor

**2.1. Add copy and paste function for components in the Parametric Editor**

In the Parametric Editor, you can copy and paste modeling, parametric part items, and entire items. It works properly even between different browsers (e.g., Chrome ↔ Edge).

***

#### Coming Soon

The following features are being prepared.

* **Custom Furniture Library > Bulk edit content details** — In the product/part library, you can select multiple items and edit sub-properties all at once.
* **Custom Furniture Library > Bulk edit variable details** — In the product/part library, you can select multiple items and edit sub-variable properties all at once.

# 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.archisketch.com/guide/intro-en/update-note/2026/202604/20260423.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.
