It would be super powerful if those were edit points also. ---

I have issues with grouping also. I really need to be able to maintain separate parts whilst still working within the continuity of the entire scope of the project. ---

Would it be possible to add a way to title workspaces. Sometimes with the camera not pointing to a specific object in a workspace, I have to open multiple workspaces to find the one I want to work with. Thanks Cjm ---

Yes, that’s something we definitely have to do. ---

Great app nice start … For a start i miss some tools - attach / detach faces like when i offset face i can detach it. - moving and transforming faces and segments … Like controling the face i draw in a surface … - scaling objects in axis … Like i want to strech the object on x axis or y axis seperated … Fpr now these are things I usually use n i miss it here. ---

Hi! - attach/detach: currently we are working on huge changes regarding the sketching and basic interaction, you will be able to do this soon 🙂 - moving/transforming faces: can you explain in a bit more detail? - scaling on an axis: on the roadmap! 🙂 ---

Great … Moving and scaling faces … Like when you draw a rectangle and offset it inside i want to move and scale the inner face on its surface … Let’s imagine a wall and a door on it ,i want to move that door on 2 axis … And also segmants when i draw triangle extrude it and want to move one of the edges … ---

So you basically want to transform sketches on faces, right? That’s actually what we are working on right now, better handling of sketches. ---

Yes… Ok cool Keep it up ---

- some sort of auto center or auto middle. say I want to put a small circle in the middle surface of a face of a cube but I would have to draw line and do math to figure out the mid point. it would be nice if shapr3d had a function to automatically put a shape in the center of a surface. - Also if I could draw a line and it could auto snap to the midpoint / 1/4th point /1/8th point / 1/16th point of spline would save me from using a calculator. or if I could input where I want a line to intersect with another spline on a surface. - A built in trig calculator would be nice as well. - adding a text section in the group folder to write notes about each group would also help organization - and a parallel helix function would save some time. ---

The upcoming constraints feature will solve most of the problems with sketching. With it I think you won’t even need the trig calculator 🙂 Also the groups feature will change a lot, and it will be much smarter, but a “text separator” would be a good idea. How many groups do you have usually? Have you tried creating a helix by sketching a line on the side of a cylinder? ---

I have a few groups sometime more than 5, if I could write all the dimensions in for each shape, or each spline outline that would help, also being able to write little notes to remind me about things I need to do or try in each group. It’s helpful if I have to write a report about certain functions of parts. I can draw a helix, but if I want extrude a helix I have to do some work around to get it in perfect dimensions, a parallel helix would give me perfect dimensions to extrude. ---

- selection tool … Beside select by pick - undo inside tools … I can’t undo while doing offset ,i have to close offset undo and offset again . ---

Selection tool? Area selection? Lasso? ---

Yes, selecting many objects or faces at a time. ---

OK, but what were you doing when you realized, that “darn, I really want to select multiple items!” ---

WOW!!! That’s amazing! Can you post this to the “Share your creations” topic as well? 🙂 We do have some concepts for area/lasso selection, and that’s a feature we definitely have to implement indeed.
