Hi, how do I find this option? I have the pro version but I can’t find it. ![image](https://cdck-file-uploads-us1.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/2X/8/8e2ece4673d757562df18a04897b609e51732372.jpeg)

That feature has been removed from the 3.0, because it was not very useful, but soon much better freeform modeling options will be added to the app.

When 🙂… and what kind of freeform modeling tools? Are they going to be Rhino-like or Solidworks-like. Are we going to have surface modeling possibilities as well (and not only solid modeling options)?  
Thanks 😉

We think that with the upcoming improvements, you won’t really need traditional surface modeling, or at least 99% of the problems that you would traditionally solve with surface modeling will be addressable.

Hi - We haven’t added a specific tool for freeform modeling yet, but since the conversation above, we have added “Moving edges”, which allows you pretty big freedom in terms of creating freeform surfaces: [https://support.shapr3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004724573-Moving-edges](https://support.shapr3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004724573-Moving-edges)
