Good Question, would like to see more improvements to the Drawing side and being able to add our own backgrounds and materials to the visualization side of Shapr3D.

Much needed!

I wish I could tell you, because it’s going to be awesome - but I can’t. 🙂 We have three _huge and very secret_ improvements on the roadmap, and hundreds of smaller ones. One thing I can tell you about is that we are heavily investing in making Drawings much better.

Yes. For interior architectural design it’s hard to work with the standard materials

I am so with you

give us the ability to load custom image textures and we have a tool to 90% replace SketchUp.

Maybe custom section tools, a sun study, and importing textured OBJ - SketchUp Warehouse files.

Boom bye bye SketchUp.

Shapr is what SketchUp tries to be

Being able to draw more fluidly would be great
