v2.21.0 (2026-07-24) ​

Overview ​

Vite Horizon 2.21.0 brings the Advanced Editor closer to the Map Editor — it gains Reshape and Hull, and loses Cut — and makes repeated use of the Map Editor's Offset tool much lighter on the browser.

Breaking Changes ​

Cut removed from the Advanced Editor ​

The Cut button is no longer part of the Advanced Editor. To split a polygon along a line, use Cut in the Map Editor, which also offers the wider set of shape tools.

New Features and Improvements ​

Advanced Editor: Reshape and Hull ​

Two tools already in the Map Editor are now available in the Advanced Editor:

  • Reshape — redraw part of a target polygon or line so its boundary follows a single continuous line you draw in the reference layer
  • Hull — replace all target shapes with the single convex hull enclosing them

See the Advanced Editor guide.

Offset stays fast when used repeatedly ​

Offsetting a shape with rounded corners used to multiply its vertex count enormously — a simple polygon could come back with thousands of points — so each further click on Offset became slower and the map heavier to draw. Rounded corners are now drawn with a sensible level of detail relative to the offset distance, which measured roughly eight times fewer vertices and ten times faster on a corner-rich shape, with no visible change to the curves.

Follow-up in 2.21.1

A follow-up patch fixed a separate problem where repeatedly offsetting a polygon inwards could freeze the tab, and added user-selectable corner styles — Miter (the new default), Round, Bevel and Square.

Under the Hood ​

  • The offset detail level scales with the distance you enter, so curves stay equally smooth at any offset size.
  • Sharper corner styles were measured rather than assumed: they produce more vertices than well-tuned round corners on corner-rich shapes, which is why the fix was the detail level and not a change of corner style.
