Shapeways site update of January 18th 2011

Thanks Dizingof! Will give that a try.

Uploading a new model is now a pain in the rear.

Here's why;
Upload model... fine
Set materials... fine
Set markup... not fine, on the model page, you now have to set each and every material markup.
Going to the inventory page to set the markup for the model means waiting for the page to load all models, scrolling through to find the model, then setting the markup... saving changes take you back to your shop edit page.

If anyone has not set the markup per material and just set the one markup thinking the markup is set across the board... they're thinking wrongly and possibly losing out.

@stop4stuff: that's a good point, I'll forward it to Ben.

Thanks!

I know it's been mentioned before, but this is a perfect example of why a percentage based markup would be a wonderful thing.. enter a single % and apply it to all materials.. then go thru material by material if you wish and tweak the prices.

It should be pretty easy to code for.. if you enter say 20% in the markup box, detect the % and then do the calcs.

+1 to adding a % markup (for all or just selected materials)

+1.000 for getting away with markups and changing to fixed sale price.

Why is the material matrix so ridiculously small?
(Give the developers some 24" screens please!)

Two minute with firebug I got this :


(censored )

I just removed the weird fixed pixel (wtf?) size constraint on the matrix.

Please add an option to filter out non-public models.

I can only move products up one row at a time?
Please add buttons for top and eight rows up etc.

Please make the save button so, it does not leave the page.


And please take the row principle from the material matrix, make it vertical and implement that on the product page.
Hidden mark-ups on the product page leads to errors, we might miss an entry.


Cheers,

Stijn
