That means it’s time to get in gear with your Apple Pencil. You can finally use the Area Selection tool with the Apple Pencil, not just the mouse or trackpad. Simply long-tap the screen and drag right or left to select a handful of items in the design space at once. For more details, hop over to our article.
What’s more, we reworked some features:
We removed live chat support from the app.
Judging by the numbers, most of you won’t miss the live chat. But those of you who will miss the chat… don’t be alarmed. You can still contact our Support team if you need help. Just ask your questions here or email the team at support@shapr3d.com.
When you select a 3D body in the design space, you’ll see the body’s name at the bottom of the screen, along with the related measurements.
If you’ve searched for commands while sketching, you probably noticed that the search bar would also suggest commands that aren’t actually usable in sketch mode. We made sure the search bar will make sensible judgements from now on and only show sketching-related commands in sketch mode.
The Project tool will no longer act up when you try to project a face with a filleted edge onto a construction plane. If you need a refresher on the tool, here’s an article for you.
For those of you who prefer using the Area Selection tool with the mouse or trackpad, we squashed a bug in the backend that made the tool a bit glitchy.
I love it:) I also like that you can add to the selection.
But maybe also add a deselect option too? For the times you add to many and you do not want to start all over
How do you mean @Oregonerd?
Grouping after selection in the Items manager is already possible. Just select your bodies, and hit the + button in the bottom of the Items panel to add all to a new folder.
Good feature, but not well thought through. This leaves only the double screen tap for full body selection, which is problematic to say the least. I miss the long click for solid body selection, and it would be nice to have the choice. I suggest using the pencil’s in-built double finger tap to switch between the two. I posted a thread on this here before I realised this was featured in an announcement: Annoying new iPad/Apple Pencil select features
An alternative could be a thumb hold on the screen with the off hand. I have seen this in several of the Adobe products as well as others where a semitransparent movable toggle button is left on-screen to act as a tool modifier.
Ich kann mit diesem Tool überhaupt nicht arbeiten.
Ich brauche oft einfache Quader mit denen ich schneide.
Davor konnte ich den Quader durch längeres Halten markieren und mit den Pfeilen per Drag and Drop positionieren.
Somit bitte ich das bei mir das Update zurück genommen wird oder ich die Funktion ausschalten kann.
