Hi CGD, I agree with Joris that this idea makes a lot of sense. Joris left Shapeways about a month ago and I've taken over from him. Please give me some time to check what the status of this suggestion is. I'll get back to you! Bart
The suggestion is on our 'wishlist' now. That's the first step to it being implemented! I can't give you a timeline though.. Bart
Great to hear! I would just like to throw in my vote of support for this feature. It would be incredibly useful, and a big bonus to all users.
As of today you can make your product available as hidden. It is only visible via deep link. For added security an unique code is generated to make URL guessing attacks more or less impossible. Just set the product availability to hidden, reload the page and copy the browser URL or share via the ShareThis widget with your customers. I hope this helps you guys! - Robert
Robert, Do I need to select "Model available to all" and then "Hidden"? Because I tried make the file hidden and then send the link to a customer, he still got the "You are not allowed to view this model" error.
FANTASTIC! THANKS! Yes indeed! My wife is absolutely gonna love this! Crap, but now I don't have an excuse to work late nights anymore Cheers, Stijn
