:boom: Today, we are announcing that :drum: History-Based Parametric Modeling :drum: is coming to Shapr3D. :boom: At Shapr3D, we’ve always held grand ambitions. Our goal is still to build the best CAD system in the world. But the path to achieving this has not been straightforward. In the early yea…

I have not seen any updates or announcements about the Parametric Modeling for the live version. Website still shows 2023 for release but only Beta is available. What is the word on the street?

We’ve rolled it out already to a few new users, and soon you’ll be able to turn it on in the live app. Initially it will be optional, then after a couple months we will update everyone.

oh so have I. Absolute nightmare sometimes. Shapr3D is so much better and I get through my designs a lot faster with less frustrations. For general modelling Shapr3D has been just what I was hoping for. And I can afford it too.

Very cool. came back to try it with this feature added. Its something i feel like i NEED. only once in awhile… but when i need it i NEED IT lol XD

Just tried the new beta. Amazing that we are getting history and parametric. How do I set variables for the parametric design? Can’t seem to find that panel.

Hi Lennart, variables are not available yet, the team is working on it right now. It’ll be available soon.

Cool thanks! Another thing I noticed that would be amazing is when using offset to lock in a specific offset to another geometry, even when that geometry changes. E.g. a circle 1mm smaller then another growing and shrinking when the other circle is changed in size.

We are working on it. Sketching improvements are a big part of implementing a great parametric modeling experience.

Will there be any hardware or OS limitations? My 2015 iPad Pro cannot run iPadOS 17 so I’m expecting I’ll need an upgrade sooner or later, but hoping it’ll do me a couple of years more yet…
