Feature requests

References sometimes need to be updated, and since each reference has its own size, the scale in the viewport has changed, which means that the entire import process needs to be repeated. The solution is simple: allow the user to specify the path to the file. Additionally, add a "refresh" button and a "save references in the file" checkbox.

Smooth selected curves by averaging or optimizing CVs within a set tolerance to remove noise and produce cleaner, fairer curvature.

Possible implementations? 1) A New tool for surface from Mesh generation (Boundary / brush tool maybe?) Generate surface based on imported mesh regions using curve boundaries or brush selection. 2) For XNurbs - additional option to allow XNurbs to interpret mesh data around boundary curves for surface fitting (like guiding curves)? 3) For Constrained Surface Fit (Mesh Approximation) - additional option for constrained surface tool to interpret mesh data by picking average points for surface generation (eg select few points manually and run command to automatically approximate surface)? These are 3 different approaches but I'm not sure how difficult this would be to implement. Something similar to the above mentioned would be beneficial, especially since lots of users seem to be designing car parts, planes, etc.

Just getting into the app, and I am wondering if you can consider this feature request. It's very frustrating in design software when you have reference images, but you can't easily set them to the correct scale. It's quite fiddly and a pain in the butt. Fusion360 does this really well when you add a canvas. You have the option to "Calibrate the image". It entails right-clicking on the reference image, choosing Calibrate from the pop-up menu. And then you draw a line from 2 known points on the image and type in the dimension. That is then interpolated, and the image is scaled to where those 2 points are the length you typed in. It's convenient, and I find it super frustrating that other software does not have this feature.

I would like to see actual wireframe and mix with shade in imported mesh so we can snap on the right vertex and not blind where it snap. What ever is obj or fbx.

in rhino, autocad, etc, spacebar can be used instead of enter for less hand travel when executing commands. it would be great if we can do the same here

I think it would be incredibly cool if you could click anywhere on a flat surface to convert it to a curved one. The tool could work similarly to "add edge loop" in blender. When you click on the surface to add your "edge loop", all it would theoretically need to do is increase your surface degree by +1 degree, so then you have a sort of edge you can then push or pull to your liking. This would prevent the need for drawing curves and extruding them in order to get a curved surface. You could start with a block and then shape it as you like with as many "edge loops" as you want. Ideally to ensure smoothness, it would only increase degree and not segment the surface, but a segmentation checkbox could be added as an option for the tool.

The bridge would solve the dilemma of Rhino users who want to use Plasticity. They have a lot of old developments, and Grasshopper also forces people to use Rhino. But the Rhino geometric kernel will never have functions for sane and fast solid modeling. Plasticity is a convenient and fast solid-state modeler, but constantly importing and exporting is depressing. A two-way bridge between Rhino and Plasticity could solve this problem.

We need them in Plasticity.

All we want to know Information about Nick's plans and goals. It's may be useful for people, who are planning to buy plasticity at moment, but not sure bet. Unfortunately, roadmap from here doesn't work.
