Create-A-World ALPHA now includes the Swatch Tray feature, a slide-out tray that sits on the left side of your screen. When you select an object that has swatches to pick from, this tray will appear and display the full thumbnail of every swatch for that object. You can select the swatch you'd like from this tray and place it.

This option is on by default but can be disabled in the Construction Center or by clicking the settings gear icon at the top right of the tray.

The tray settings also offers two additional options.

  • Keep Open on Placement - Off by default. This will keep your last set of swatches visible even after you finish placing the object. Useful if you plan to place many different variations of the same object.

  • Show Info - On by default. This toggles the Info Panel that pops up when you hover over an item in the swatch tray.


    You can get it now by becoming a tester for the CAW alpha

    Better BuildBuy will get the feature later this month.

I paid for global tester tier and never got access. Please check your messages or contact Patreon support. They said I have to contact you.

I've refunded you, however I don't have any information on why patreon didn't give you access, it showed paid in my manager but also said you were a free tier account. You can try again if you'd like, there may have just been an issue with patreon when you tried. There is an option to pay without receiving a tier, make sure you don't choose that option and actually sign up for the global tester tier.
