Features

• Ball joints: A new connector for posable figures. The parts move and hold their pose. See where a part will sit once assembled.
• Seams: Copy a hand-made joint. Leave a cut open, model the cap by hand on one side, and one click copies it into the other side and closes the cut.

Features

• Seams: Leave Open cuts without a cut face, leaving one clean edge loop on each piece to model the joint by hand.

Improvements

• Seams: Extrude has no depth limit, says why a depth does not fit, and previews faster.

Fixes

• Seams: Extrude accepts jagged and steep seams that fit, a plug it cannot build is refused before the cut.

Features

• Connectors: Dowel (round hole per piece for a separately printed pin; Export writes pins beside the pieces or into the 3MF).
• Connectors: Rod Channel (hole for a reinforcing rod through every piece it crosses; the panel gives the rod length to cut).
• Printer: Print View packs pieces onto as few plates as needed; One 3MF writes one file per plate.
• Parts: Parts From Materials splits by the model's materials or a colour attribute.

Improvements

• Paint: Shift+Wheel resizes the brush; smoother on dense models.
• Seams: Seam From Loop follows the cursor live on dense models; faster cutting.
• Connectors: smoother move/resize, live booleans stay in place until release, faster Apply.
• Parts: faster Scan on dense models; Split All Parts at Once moved to the foot of the Part Finder.
• Interface: light sidebar redesign, plus a Simple mode with every stage's basic controls in one panel.

Features

• Seams: Extrude pushes the cut face into a plug and the pocket it fits, with a draft angle and a clearance, so a nearly flat part such as an eye comes off thick enough to print and glue back.

Features

• Seams: Seam From Loop lays a seam on the ring you hover round a part; Shift+Wheel turns it, Ctrl+Shift+Wheel leans it, G follows the groove, S toggles Snap to groove.
• Connectors: the peg has a Profile: Rectangle, Round (cylinder or cone), D, which fits only one way, or Dovetail.
• Printer: choose your printer in the preferences to see which pieces fit, and Print View shows each one on its own plate, in its print pose.
• Export: every piece in one 3MF, pieces laid flat on their cut or in their print pose, and a warning for pieces too big for the printer.

Fixes

• Connectors: the dovetail is a peg straight on two sides again.

Highlights: new Paint options (Through, Fill Gaps), plus a big round of reliability fixes for seams, connectors, pieces and export.

New

• Paint › Through: paints faces hidden behind the model, no X-ray needed.
• Paint › Fill Gaps: automatically paints faces a stroke missed.
• Connectors: deselect with the ✕ button or by clicking empty space.

Important

• Apply shape modifiers before running Scan or Cut.

Fixed

Scan & Parts

• Tiny specks are no longer listed as parts.

Seams

• An uncut seam now stays on the model when you reopen the file.

Connectors

• A connector that doesn't fit its section is now reported instead of being exported broken.

Pieces

• Renamed, duplicated, separated or joined pieces keep their connectors and history.
• A Shift+D copy is no longer exported.

Make Manifold

• Hollow models stay hollow.
• It now stops before rebuilding more than 3 % of a piece, to protect your geometry.

Export

• Pieces in excluded collections are now exported.
• Names that differ only in case no longer overwrite each other.
• Numbering restarts for each model.

Features

• Slide a flat cut surface along the part.
• Slide and the tilts have < > arrows that step by 0.1.
• Propose a seam between two parts.
• Make Manifold closes a piece so booleans take it.

Fixes

• A cut repaints its pieces in their parts colours, caps included.
• A connector that cannot be cut into both pieces is not applied at all.
• Auto Scale is off by default.
• A fully flattened seam gives a flat, evenly woven cut face.
