Hi there,

1. image import  
yes that’s coming this year 🙂

2. 3D sketching  
Well, the only software that can do this is CATIA (and Umake). Or do you mean using 3D curves? Because 3D curves are a quite ofter requested feature, and we will definitely add it in the near future.

3. Surface modeling tools  
You can expect lots of improvements here. We will completely reimplement our lofting algorithm, and it will allow you create lofts from open sections as well. However you can even without these tools create amazing stuff, as you can see it here: [Share your creations](http://discourse.shapr3d.com/t/share-your-creations/18/167)  
Shapr3D originally intended to be a solid modeler, but we will improve our surfacing tools as well in the near future.

Based on these questions, I suppose you are currently using Rhino, right? 🙂
