Hi,  
I found that when I change the name of a group shapr sets by default a name “process”. Then when I change this name in “name1” it is ok.

Hey!

Thanks for reaching out. Are you using the latest version **3.0.4**? We had a bug in an earlier release but this should be fixed now.

This is the name of the group which is “generated” by shapr: v@:q@?  
I cannot change tha name anymore.

I also include the shapr file: “vaankop9”. (This is a 3d part to be printed for a “windvane selfsteering device” on my yacht)

Best regards,  
Joost
