Hello, here is my last creation. A Mac mini integrated with a Waveshare 5 inch IPS HDMI display.

I used a external keyboard and used the different shortcut keys for different views. I wish there would be shortcut keys for user defined views too.

OK for the views but how you animated and record ? Thanks

Hello, The first part of the video are just screen captures of the modeling view of Shapr3D. They are mounted with CapCut pro to achieve the appearing effect. Second part is done by recording the screen with record function of iPad OS and, with an external keyboard, use the “switch to xxx view” (more info here [In the section navigation](https://support.shapr3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/7873906073884-Keyboard-shortcuts-gestures-and-hotkeys#cheat-sheet) ). Both videos are mounted in CapCut pro and then I added the teaser view of the 3D printed prototype and the final message. Then it is just a question of finding a song that matches the movement and you are done.

Hope it helps!

Thanks! By sample do you mean a real unit? At the end of the video you can see a teaser of the first functional prototype. I am preparing the final version right now, so you can expect more pics and videos soon.
