This update brings significant enhancements to your modeling workflow, introducing long-awaited features like Portrait mode and Construction Planes to make designing on iPad even more flexible. NEW FEATURES Portrait Mode: Design comfortably in any orientation. The UI now adapts perfectly to Portrait mode on your iPad. Construction Planes: Gain more control over your geometry. Create and offset planes to sketch exactly where you need to. Reference Images: Bring your inspiration into the app. Import images from Photos or Files to use as a guide for your sketches. Quick Drag: Speed up your workflow by dragging directly on the gizmos for Extrusions, Fillets, and Chamfers. SKETCHING IMPROVEMENTS Refined Sketch Solver: Enjoy a more reliable sketching experience, even with complex designs. Smarter Dimensions: Better placement and readability for arc and circle dimension labels. Reference Image Editing: Move and scale your reference images directly through the new context menu. Safety First: Added safeguards to prevent conflicting edits while 3D operations are active. MODELING & UX UPDATES Enhanced Gizmos: Improved touch handling ensures you grab the tool, not the background. Better Previews: Fillet and Chamfer interactions now feature more accurate previews and cleaner cancel behavior. Advanced Undo/Redo: Experience a more consistent history across mixed modeling sessions. Clearer Feedback: Improved messaging for solid operations and sketch deletions to help you understand dependencies. Optimized Layouts: Tool panels and camera selectors have been refined for better tap-target precision in both orientations. Experience a cleaner, more intuitive way to create your next 3D printed part.

Undo and Redo You can now undo and redo changes to your model. Every operation, sketch edit, and transformation is tracked, so you can step back through your work at any time. Clone Operation A new Clone operation lets you duplicate existing solids. Clones can be linked to their source or created as independent copies, and a gizmo lets you position them directly in the 3D view. Custom Solid Colors Solids are now automatically assigned distinct colors from a built-in palette. You can also change a solid's color at any time from the document tree. Delete Sketches Sketches can now be deleted from the document tree. A confirmation dialog warns you if the sketch is referenced by existing operations so you know what will be affected before proceeding. Fillet Tool in Sketch Editor The sketch editor now includes a Fillet tool for rounding the corner where two lines meet. Extrude Merge Solids Control The Extrude operation now has a Merge Solids toggle. When on, extruded geometry that intersects an existing solid is automatically fused into it. When off, it is kept as a separate solid. Improved Boolean Operations Difference and intersection operations now correctly produce multiple separate solids when the result is disconnected geometry. A clear error message is shown when a union is attempted on solids that do not overlap. Face and Edge Interaction Hovering over a solid now highlights the face and its edges, making it easier to select geometry for operations. Edge detection is more accurate and handles occluded geometry correctly. Document Tree The document tree is reorganized into separate sections for planes, sketches, solids, and operations. You can now right-click items to edit or toggle their visibility. Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements Sketch editing is now blocked while an operation is open to prevent conflicting edits. Face hover detection is limited to the frontmost solid so occluded bodies no longer interfere with selection. Geometry data is now cached to reduce load times when revisiting unchanged models.

Our latest update introduces powerful new tools designed specifically for makers, laser-cutter enthusiasts, and power users. We’ve focused on bridging the gap between your iPad and your fabrication tools. New Feature: Export Face to SVG Convert your 3D designs into 2D reality. You can now export any planar face directly as a high-quality SVG file. This is perfect for laser cutting, vinyl plotting, or further refinement in vector software like Illustrator or Inkscape. - 1:1 Scale: Exported vectors are sized accurately for fabrication. - Live Preview: See your vector geometry before you save. - Smart Support: Handles complex geometry, including Ellipse Arcs, for smooth curves. New Feature: Dedicated Hole Tool Forget manual extrusions for mounting points. The new Hole tool allows you to place precise, parametric holes based on sketch points. - Point-Based Placement: Align hardware perfectly by referencing sketch points. -Multi-Hole Patterns: Select multiple points to generate several holes in a single operation. - Fully Parametric: Adjust diameter and depth at any time via the Document Tree. Part3D Bridge Integration We have completely reimagined the connection between your iPad and your 3D printer. The new Bridge turns your workflow into a seamless, wireless experience. One-Tap Export: Use the new universal Printer icon to send models directly to your local slicing/printing setup. Improved Discovery: Faster, more stable background logic to find your devices instantly. Optimizations and Fixes: Improved error handling for non-planar face selections. Enhanced stability for complex sketch rebuilds. Updated connectivity protocols for clearer local network feedback.

This release focuses on enhanced file management for macOS (coming soon) and iOS, improved boolean operations (coming soon), and better UI/UX for dialog positioning and previews.

Enhanced Sketching & Validation We’ve added smarter error handling to the sketch editor. The app now proactively validates surfaces to ensure you’re always working on a planar face, preventing geometry errors before they happen. We also added duplicate primitive validation to keep your sketches clean and organized. Optimized UI & Sharing We’ve refined our UI components across the board for a more consistent feel. Sharing your projects is now faster and more reliable, ensuring your designs get from your iPad to your slicer with fewer taps.

Expanded Design Tools We have introduced comprehensive support for Ellipses across the entire design suite. You can now create, mirror, and arrange ellipses in linear or circular patterns. The sketch editor has also been updated to include specific constraints for ellipse diameters, ensuring your shapes remain precise during adjustments. Improved Export Experience The 3D print and STL export process is now much more informative. A new progress modal and custom loading indicators keep you updated on the status of your file generation. We have also refined the export engine to provide higher detail and better mesh quality for complex solid geometries. Enhanced Sketching Precision Our sketching engine received a significant overhaul to handle complex shapes more reliably. This includes smarter "Equal" constraints that work across different shape types and improved touch controls to make selecting and dragging small points more fluid on mobile devices. Workflow and Safety To help protect your work, we added a confirmation dialog that appears if you attempt to discard unsaved changes in a sketch. Additionally, document loading and saving are now faster thanks to a more efficient background caching system. General Improvements This update also includes various refinements to the interface, such as updated icons for tool clarity and improved notification prompts for advanced features. We have also resolved several minor bugs to ensure a smoother, more stable design experience.

Part3D 2.1.6 SMARTER SKETCHING TOOLS We have introduced new constraints to give you more precision while drawing. You can now apply Tangent constraints to lines and circles, set Equal Radius for multiple arcs, and use Midpoint Snapping to find the exact center of any line. We also added a Merge Points tool to help you clean up overlapping geometry with a single tap. REDEFINE SKETCH PLANES Flexibility is key to great design. You can now move an existing sketch to a different face or plane without having to redraw it. This makes it much easier to adjust your model as your ideas evolve. IMPROVED ERROR DETECTION We have added a new alert icon to the history button that highlights exactly where a problem is occurring. If a Fillet, Shell, or Extrude fails, the app now provides clearer feedback so you can fix the issue and get back to creating. FILE COMPATIBILITY AND UI Support for importing .stp files is now available. The on-screen numpad now includes a toggle sign (+/-) button for faster value entry. Added a confirmation step when deleting operations to prevent accidental changes. Significant performance improvements when navigating through your project history. Part3D is built for makers and 3D printing enthusiasts. If you're enjoying the app, please consider leaving us a review!
