3d building apps

[Chintan Gohel]

Hi guys,

So my friend shared an app that is apple exclusive called shapr3d Shapr3D - Modeling magic for iPad Pro.

he challenged me in a friendly way to get an app or program that can work on the surface device in a similar or better way but without using the surface cover i.e just the surface tablet portion and the surface pen

Can you suggest any? Does autocad work well with the pen?

Windows store has sculptit and a crappy good for nothing 3d builder.

Honestly I'd like my "bread and butter" keyboard and mouse Autodesk Inventor. As for pen only use, sounds weird. I'm not sure that or Solidworks can do that.

You can only do pan,zoom and rotate with touch screen in solid works. Good for showing to other people but a piece of crap while modelling.

And sorry to say this, just accept your defeat if you only want to show him an app from windows store. Or else show him legacy win32 beasty programs not available for ipad pro.

This one might support the pen and touch... but it's a full featured 3D modeling app...

Why does he want to take away some of the advantages of the SP by "disallowing" usage of the keyboard and pen? Why can't you use the full potential of your computer by using programs and the surface cover? Is it to make his Ipad have a chance?

you have a point there - thought the pen has to be used

Looks like I was wrong about touch functionality in solidworks as I haven't used any active stylus for my dell 13 7000.

Chintan you can show him this program but you need to sell yourself to buy this software(rumoured to be $22,000 without any add-ins) If you are a student you can get it for $150 for 1 year.
