Feature Request: Simultaneous Project Opening & Component Sharing

Feature requests
1

Dear Shapr3D Team,

I regularly use Shapr3D for my CAD work and greatly appreciate its intuitive interface and powerful features. However, there are two functionalities that would significantly enhance my workflow:

  1. Simultaneous Project Opening: The ability to open and work on multiple projects within a single instance of the software would make it much easier to switch between projects or compare designs.
  2. Sharing Components or Subassemblies: It would be highly beneficial to directly transfer components or subassemblies from one project to another, enabling the reuse of existing designs and streamlining the design process.

Could you kindly let me know if these features are planned for future updates or if they are under consideration? If not, I would like to suggest these ideas for your roadmap, as I believe they could be valuable for many users.

Thank you in advance for your response and for your continued work on improving Shapr3D!

Best regards,
Markus

I would really benefit from both of these features. I think number 2 goes without saying, since so many people want it. I’d also really like number 1, for those times when I don’t want to share the actual components between two projects – think when I’m designing version 2.0 of some component. I want to be able to reference dimensions and such from the original, but I’m starting from scratch.

I would find this very helpful too. This might be a stretch, but being able to drag items from one Apple device to another through Universal Control (I think that’s what it’s called) would be awesome. When I was in school I would take screenshots of notes or textbook problems on my Mac and drag them over into my note taking software on my iPad Pro, and that was really convenient. Anyway, if we could even drag parts and assemblies between different Shapr instances on the same device, that would be helpful.

Thanks
