PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - make it possible to cut’n paste between projects 🙌🏻🤓

It really is neccessary being able to copy a piece of design/object in a project and paste it into another. I also wish I could scale parts in all axes and not only in general. I’m working on pretty complex/large designs…and hopefully the app will cope and progress for bigger files in the future.

Hoping santa will bring these options for christmas​:innocent:🎅🏼

Otherwice it’s an awesome tool - thanks!!

Hello Erika,

thanks for the comments - both features that are on our mind. Not sure when they will come out, but these are something we will eventually have 🙂  
If you wouldn’t mind, can you please send me ([daniel@shapr3d.com](mailto:daniel@shapr3d.com)) the body you want to use with a non-uniform scale. Would love to understand the use case

I for one believe that copying moving objects/components between projects should be very very high on your short list. Not being able to do that simple, time saving thing is proving very frustrating for the work flow.

Hello 🙂

It could be any body/shape - but also to select multiple bodys to stretch em all to any direction. Like I’d like to use it for shaping as well - so you do not need to deselect all cornershapes and back to square and build a shape back up to stretch it a little.

Some bodys do not need to have totally circular or 90 degree corners - so it doesn’t matter if thhey got stretched in one direction. But surly any kind of scaling/stretching will help in some way.

Here’s a radar mast under construction - as an example I could like to stretch/scale the upper «wings» backwards so they got more angeled and play with the shapes more thann with goin in and redo all angles/surfaces and try again.

I very often comes into issues where I can’t delete corner curves or similar - and «won’t heal» - I’m no expert in this program - but really home I could use it for complex drawings inn the future - cause its so easy and userfriendly in operation.

Bets

Erika 🙂
