Nice feature but useless for me without ability to make custom materials with my own images and export option to OBJ with textures!

We’ve just released it for Windows today, with version 5.200 !

Hey – starting with 5.200 , it’s now possible to include the textures in USDZ exports. It’s only on Apple platforms and for the USDZ format for now, but glTF support and availability on Windows is also coming in a few weeks.

hey looking forward to using materials on windows finaly :smiley: been trying some of the materials, specialy wood, and have seen that its not able to rotate material, fo example woodgrain to right direction, or to change brightnes of wood material or color. im not sure it its posible to do on iPa…

[image] Smail_Pajalic: im not sure it its posible to do on iPad and MacOS, but like to see that change in near future. just keep up your work :+1: It’s not yet possible on any of the supported platforms. Shapr3D on Windows is now very close to feature parity with the other platforms. Materia…

@Istvan [image] Istvan: A few hints: Geometry matters a lot. If your geometry has sharp edges it won’t look good. Add a small radius fillet. Might worth experimenting with adding a planar object under the geometry with the default material or some other materials, because shadows matter a lot…

In woodworking, grain orientation is very important. When designing a table for exemple, you can’t imagine having a leg with the grain horizontally oriented. This is a must have when adding a wood texture. Do you have any idea if this feature could be added soon or later?

Yes, wen grain orientation? And endgrain. Is this feature in plans? Working now with timber frame construction. I am currently not using wood material at all since grain orientation is not here.

It’s the next item on the Visualization team’s roadmap.

Materials are here!
