When I select the edge of a body Shapr3D now presents a pop up menu. I have to select a merge version of the object. I simply want to select the edge of the body. Having to choose a merged version was not necessary previously and makes a simple click slower.
Is this new development? Is there a way around this?
This is something new that was released recently, I agree it is annoying sometimes.
I would like a setting to turn off or right click to toggle on and off.
One of those things where its useful when I need it but didnt need it most of the times.
It’s like asking are you Sure, are you Sure Confirm and here are your options.
Suddenly Shapr got OCD 
I third this. Even the accidentally clicked hidden edge was quicker than the current process.
Not my favourite feature either. I find it slows me down and I was already pretty slow!
I find it to be the worst “improvement”. At least let us turn it off.
Please
You get the popover because there are two overlapping edges where you click. Otherwise it’d randomly select one.
Note on the Desktop you get Popup + Hover to preview your selection.
On iPad you just get Popup but no hover over list, no preview.
This app is increasingly unbearable to use. By far one of the worst “features” they’ve added. And they still haven’t fixed detaching sketches from bodies which leads to a cluttered workspace. The first versions of this app were better than these latest updates.
It’s really sad to see, a lot of us are all going to sketch up since SHAPR has become so cumbersome. There was so much potential here.
The capability to select a something that wasn’t selected by shapr’s best guess is needed. However, the current implementation is really bad.
I suggest that that the best guess selection should be the main path with a passive option (e.g. a little icon that non-invasively appears if there are multiple possibilities. If the user wants to, they could click on it to select a different option.
Also, while the highlighting the feature on hover is good, it doesn’t work on the iPad… That should at least be implemented for the pro pencil which has hover capability.
The paradigm should be for shapr3d to default to best guess with the non-invasive option to choose from other options. This is how some of the other tools like extrude work. Had it been implemented this way, I don’t think anyone would complain.
FYI I Flagged your post as SPAM, from you only Solutions please!
SPAM it is not. The solution is to get rid of new way and get back to the basics. Or as others have suggested, create a switch to either use it as is or as it was before.
Your choice is informative a regarding the culture of Shapr3D.
This needs some type of on/off toggle. It’s never useful and slows down my modeling drastically.
I totally agree. A toggle would be great. This feature infuriates me more and more as time goes on as I find i have to zoom in or pan to a huge extent to click on what is right in front of me as the dialogue box is pure guesswork as to whether you select the right option. I’d like the option to not select through an object, but just what is in plain sight.
