SVG Export local alternative

Shapr3D 4.9 is now available on the App Store and includes SVG Export. In this first release it will export any sketches from your model to SVG, meaning that if you want to use this to make cuts (with a CNC or laser tool) of the faces of a 3D model you should first project those faces to the base plane.
We have however added the option to save connected lines as a polyline. If you are planning to use the exported SVG for any kind of cutting make sure to select this option to ensure a smooth continuity of the machine’s operations.

We would love to see some examples and stories of how you use this and hear your feedback about the feature. If we see significant usage and demand we have some other ideas for future improvements such as being able to generate the SVG directly from face selections.
