Not sure if it is just me, but have had a couple of occasions when the offset tool has crashed the app (having said that app crashes are not a major problem - when I re launch app I don’t seem to have lost anything - unlike modelling apps on my PC). If I make a cylinder and then try using the offset tool on the top surface, this seems to cause it to crash. Has anyone else had similar problem?

Yes, we are aware of this issue, the offset tool crashes currently when you are trying to offset a circle with smaller then 1 radius. We already fixed it, and this will be included in the release tomorrow.

That’s great thanks. I am learning to work at a slightly larger scale which also seems to help when using a number of the tools.
