We are working on it, but it’s not a trivial task, so there is no release date set for it yet.

Go ahead and shake your head but most of my time using the program is spent with my MAC. That being said, I am constantly getting a notification there is a new version…but I am not finding the means of finding out what exactly has changed. Where is that located? Regards, Cort

Absolutely!!! On the iPad … I guess that would be Shapr3d!!! 🕶

I should point out, at 3 he’s surprisingly skilled with his ability with the remote controls for “OUR” Rc cars!!! 😂

I would think a pen and an iPad will come naturally to him hanging around me in our hobby cave! 🐸

I’ve noticed a problem with the new visualisation feature…

When I select ‘Transparent’ in the Environment tab and capture an image it appears that it is not truly transparent. It merely displays the checkered background that you would normally see with a transparent background (a faux transparent background).

I captured an image with what I thought was a transparent background and imported it into other software (Affinity Design and Sketchbook Pro) and in both software the ‘transparent’ background was opaque with the checkered design.

Is this something that you are aware of, or fixing?
