Shapeways: Bring your creativity to life in 3D http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php Shapeways: Bring your creativity to life in 3D I'd love to be able to change the angle of my object in the 3D rendered image on my shop http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55538&th=11231#msg_55538
Any chance you guys could work that into the shop functions?

It is really rare that the models I upload are facing the best way in the rendered image. Any chance you could allow us, when editing the product's page, to select a view for that rendered image?

Thanks,

Lincoln

Thus my models are upward down, facing back, facing down, facing anywhere, but rarely into the right direction.]]> Salorian 2012-10-28T11:52:56-00:00 Re: I'd love to be able to change the angle of my object in the 3D rendered image on my shop http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=56105&th=11231#msg_56105 Open the STL

2 reasons:

1) You then have to re-upload the model which is a bit of time waster, especially if you do models with a lot of polys (which I usually do)

2) Netfabb doesn't work with .wrl files which is what I wanted to adjust when I posted this. So anyone doing full color sandstone models can't adjust them in Netfabb

yes, we're aware of this request. It's on the list, but as far as I know it hasn't been prioritized yet (freely translated: we have decided that some other issues are more important to be fixed first).
