Highlights
Upgraded Lead Capture in Showroom — Lead capture forms now split Full Name into separate First and Last Name fields, accept phone numbers up to 15 digits, and support up to 10 custom fields. You can set each field to required, optional, or off directly from settings, and buyers opt into marketing communications through a separate checkbox that is unchecked by default.
Custom Lot Statuses and Colors — You can now customize the lot statuses and colors shown on your sales map from Account Settings > Sales > Maps. Default colors follow the Okabe-Ito palette for colorblindness accessibility, font color adjusts automatically for contrast, and any custom Spec and Model labels you already use carry over.
Custom Props from Imported 3D Geometry — You can now import your own 3D geometry assets to use as custom Props in Studio, with support for the FBX file format. This brings builder-specific fixtures, furniture, and site elements directly into your models.
