How can I adjust angular resolution for the STL export?

Hi @vstelegin, you can find it on the Export STL popup. There is a _Resolution_ toggle, where the rightmost option is the _Custom_ that lets you set deviation and angular tolerances.

Thanks @KPeter  
But when I hit export, it takes me directly to Save As dialogue window

Is it same on Mac OS, or better? I love Shapr3d still, hopefully export settings will get some update soon.

Hi Pascal, I am sorry to hear that you feel like that. However our goal with Shapr3D for Windows is to get to feature parity with the other platforms as quickly as possible. While a few things are missing, we are 95% there already, and will get to 100% very soon.

Certainoy not all of the features you asked for will be available in January, but the Windows app will be feature par with the iPad and macOS apps very soon. But as we are releasing new features and updates every two weeks, you can expect us to catch up quickly.
