I jst renewed my $299 subscription for the second year and I deeply regret it. Shapr3D has gotten worse over the past year, not better. Filing a support ticket ALWAYS results in a response asking for photos, files, deep descriptions. Why? I am not going to do your jobs for you.
- Exporting STEP files is broken. Regardless of the body name, the exported file uses the name of the software when the part is imported into Orcasclicer.
- Regardless of what I name the body, and where I move the body in Shapr, it exports as the original folder where it was located.
- I dread using Measure. Eerytime I exit measure, it leaves random measure handles all over my part unless i go in and out of measure again to clear them.
- When I pick a face to sketch, Shapr backs all the way out whickh results in placing the screen view behind any other bodies on my project page. Shapr is clarly design for one body and graphical illustration, not for those of us that actually produce parts from the drawings.
- The number of clicks required to do very simple tasks is ridiculous. For example, simply change a color of a face or body requires too many clicks.
- Shapr cannot import and convert STL files. Why not?
- The favorite export file type is broken. If my favorite export file type is STL. it shoud AUTOMATICALLY export to that format.
- The menues of tools are not customizable. Why can’t I select tools to make them dynamically show on the main screen of tools? I use project, split, consturction planes, etc which are all deep in sub levels. I learned it but my hand gets tired from performing thousands of clicks each day.
- There are many many other examples of the tedious workfow issues and flat out BUGS with the software.
Again, I regret renewing my subscription for a second year. I had hope that Shapr would improve over time but it is more and more like blender and less and less of a tool for the 3D printing hobby.
