@Papa_Schlumpf  
The Sketch used to create a Body or Bodies is the basis for such a drawing:

Keep up the good work Istvan 😃 Shapr3d is only getting better and better 🙂 Technical drawings would be one of the things that will take this to the next level.

Is is also feasible with a way to render with materials instead of/addition to vertex colors ?

@Papa_Schlumpf  
Current **Section View** does not provide sufficient detail:

With the promised **Technical Drawing** Feature is there any possibility of improving the **Section View** output?  
In the above ScreenShot it is anticipated that the individual Boards comprising the Crate Body would show as separate Cross Sections.

Hi  
I know you are working on it but is it possible to get an ETA on the “technical drawing”?  
And also very briefly what to expect from it. Will it be something similar to FreeCAD TechDraw Workbench?

Thank you for creating Shaper3D, its life changing 🥭🌴

You can expect a full featured drawing functionality 🙂 we are progressing pretty good with it, I hope that we can have a beta by the end of this year and release it next year.
