Hey everyone! After releasing the incredible rendering feature, we wanted to surprise you with yet another powerful feature - Slides!
1. Slides
Create beautiful presentations or play with different ideas using our newest feature - Slides! You can now capture different views in the 3D space and use them as slides.
But that's not all! Each slide can capture more than just a different camera angle; it can save the following:
'Style' (color, materials, and textures), 'View' settings, 'Rendering' settings (different lighting, etc.), Layers (any layer configuration available), and even Grid settings (grid units, etc.).
Check out our Instagram page and stories to see examples.
2. Rendering improvements
Renderings will now export with a transparent background by default.
We improved the visualization of transparent surfaces so that they won't cast a shadow over the surfaces beneath them.

We hope you and your family are safe and healthy! The Spring is here, and so is our new update for you:
1. Distance Measurement Tool Improvements
Now, you can measure the distance between more than 2 points (Polyline). Another addition is that you can also measure distance by drawing a distance line (instead of 'press & hold' to create a point).
You'll be able to edit an existing distance line by tapping once on a point to adjust it and double-tap to continue your measurement from that point.
2. Apple Pencil Mode Improvements
Based on your feedback, when using the Apple Pencil mode in default view modes, to avoid any mistakes, your view will always return to the default view in case of an accidental touch with your fingers.
3. New Help Videos
We added new videos focusing on the Snap Tools, Color Wheel, Fillet/Chamfer, and Camera Settings. You can find them under the "Learn" tab or the help widget in the Editor.

Happy Holidays everyone! To celebrate - please enjoy our latest update, with these new features:
-- OFFSET TOOL
It's now easier to create offset lines using the offset tool. Double tap on a curve or a surface and then tap on "Offset" to set an offset for your selection. Great for architectural and mechanical plans.
-- .SVG FILE-FORMAT SUPPORT
With this release, you can import .SVG file format. Use iPad apps like Affinity Designer, Graphic or Adobe Illustrator on the desktop to design 2D vector curves, such as logos, text, ornaments, and others and turn them into 3D using uMake.
-- SKETCH ON SURFACES
We brought back the option to sketch on an individual surface, both for flat and 3D surfaces. In this version, you can use the Pen and Precision tools in uMake to sketch on flat surfaces and use the Pen tool only (for now) to sketch on a 3D surface.
-- LOCALIZATION
Nǐ hǎo! ¡Hola! Hallo! Salut! We added support in Chinese (Simplified), Spanish, German and French. We hope to make it easier for our users around the world to learn and use uMake. We will add support in additional languages next year.
While we're hard at work on the next set of new features, please let us know what you would like to see in uMake at 'hello@umake.xyz'.
Stay tuned - lots of new exciting things are coming!
Thank you,

* Happy Holidays! * At this time of the year, we've taken the time to improve and enhance many aspects in uMake:
-- .SVG FILES IMPORT
You can now import .SVG files into uMake. Import vector based logos, technical drawings, CAD plans and more and use them as the basis for your 3D design.
-- SNAP
We improved the way snap works in the different modes of the app to be more consistent.
-- CAPTURE SKETCH PLANES
Now you can 'capture' sketch planes and get back to them at a later time, in your design process. We're working on other improvements for the Sketch Planes to give you better flexibility when sketching in 3D space.
-- SKETCH ON SURFACES
We brought back the option to sketch on an individual surface, both for flat and 3D surfaces. In this version, you can use the Pen and Precision tools in uMake to sketch on flat surfaces and use the Pen tool only (for now) to sketch on a 3D surface.

1.9.1
2018-09-16
We keep working on some significant upgrades to uMake. In the meantime, we fixed a few bugs and crashes that we've noticed since we launched our latest update. Here's what changed in version 1.9:
** Push & Pull **
Finally, it's here! Push & Pull flat surfaces with ease.
There are two ways to 'push & pull' in uMake:
1. Tap once on a flat surface, then drag the handle to push or pull.
2. Long press & drag a flat surface will pull or pull.
NOTE: this feature only works on flat surfaces for now.
To cut through the object, push through the surface, and when you get to the edge of the object, it will snap to it. The hole will be colored orange, and then you'll know you can release your finger or Pencil to cut the object.
* Some unexpected behavior might happen. Please let us know if you experience any issues.
** Layers Order **
Another highly requested feature is here. Now it's easier than ever to organize your designs.
To change the order of your layers, 'Press & Hold' a layer, then drag it to its new location.
** Significant Bugs Fixes **
We worked hard on fixing bugs related to cut through surfaces, curve splitting and more. We take your feedback seriously and working relentlessly on improving uMake for you.
As always, feel free to reach out with any suggestion or question at: hello@umake.xyz

2018-08-08
Hi, we're keeping on developing significant features in uMake, and this time we focused on a few improvements that would make the sketching experience easier for you:
*** Cut Through Surfaces ***
When you sketch closed shapes on flat surfaces, you'll be able to cut the area out of the surface you sketched on. Double tap to select the closed area you want to cut, and then tap on "Erase"
*** Precise Control Points Editing ***
With this improvement, you'll be able to easily move control points on their axis and also define the distance while moving them
*** New Help Widget ***
For newcomers and experienced uMakers, we created an easier way for you to learn uMake while designing. We moved the help panel to a single popover that's easily accessible anytime you need it. Reporting bugs and general questions remain in the panel.
We also fixed a few crashes and other bugs some of you reported. Thank you for your feedback! For any help please contact us at: hello@umake.xyz

2018-07-22
QUICK FIX + READ ABOUT THE LATEST: We fixed issues related to the subscription processes.
This is a significant update. Please take a minute to read here all about the recent changes. We're planning on improving and adding more new features in the next couple of updates, so stay tuned! Thanks again for your support!
** Precision Tool **
With this tool, you'll be able to quickly create perfect shapes like lines, arcs, and circles. Ideal for Architects and Mechanical engineers.
** New Split Engine **
Now intersecting lines and surfaces will be automatically split and connected to each other.
To move a complete line, select its parts by double tapping and move, rotate or scale. TIP: if you want to move it without changing all other lines connected to it, tap on the "Cut/Paste" icon on the top-left corner of the bounding box.
** Faster Line Editing **
To quickly edit a line, tap once on the line and change its control points. Tap anywhere to exit the edit mode and complete the change.
** Surface Creation **
Surfaces will now be created automatically, if there's a closed shape.
To disable this feature, go to the 'Settings' panel and turn 'Auto-Surfacing' off.
When you are selecting lines that create a surface, tap on the green preview surface or on the 'Create Surface' icon.
** Sketch on Surfaces **
We changed the way this feature works. To sketch on a surface, sketch directly on the surface. PLEASE NOTE: currently we limited sketching to plane/flat surfaces only. We will support complex surfaces in the near future.
