Sometimes I want to create several versions of the same product, but each time I have to go out and then back in from “visualization” in order to make some changes to my design so every time I return to visualization, I try to play with the angle in order to mimic the previous field the view that I used to export into JPEG.  
If there wan an option to “lock” specific angle(s) that would be very helpful and save me a lot of wasted time. And this way I could show clients or upload an image to my website images of the same product in the same exact angle.

Thank you 🙂

The problem that this feature will solve: I export a lot of imagery from Shapr3D into other documents for design/production purposes as well as marketing. I often find myself making small changes and then having to try and line the viewpoint up to a previous screenshot. This is especially important for me making production guides (building instructions) w…
