Hi Alex,

Well, I disagree. How about changing a spline to change the profile of a body later. Or have you ever finished a project with chamfers and fillets to go back to change the size; and when you do you first have to delete the fillets, and sometimes can’t easily, and spend too much time trying to make a bigger or smaller model? Recently I needed to change a thread from being a right hand (normal) thread to left hand, for the screw and the part it screwed into. That required changing one parameter.

If you haven’t you should follow some tutorials. I like Claas Kuhnen’s style.

BTW, I use iPad. I was not a CAD person prior to Shapr3D, only dabbling with alternatives that didn’t work for me (or way too expensive). And it did take some time to adjust, but then again, I wanted to learn the new ways. Now, I still use direct modeling as well as history. I can hardly wait for parameter tables (or whatever they will be called).
