Adobe Dimension: Feature Requests
When entering a new feature request, please provide specific details. Why is this feature valuable to you? Give an example of how you would use it in a workflow.

Adding texture or images, like wood to the grounds plane.
Adding an option to the grounds plane property where you can add textures like wood or cement onto the grounds plane. It's helpful when rendering something that needs a surface as a background. And being able to change angles and still make the object look like its sitting on the same surface.
12 votesWe can add something that would project across the entire ground plane. In the mean time you can add a plane object and then place an image onto that and change it’s full material properties.

2D > 3D Modeling (Lathe, Extrude, Loft)
Similar to conventional 3D software, Felix should have the ability to create 3D images from 1/2D wireframes. ie. a 1D line is drawn (a circle), the 1D drawing is filled to create 2nd dimension. The 2D shape is then scaled from surface to create a cylinder (3rd dimension). This offers a much more methodical and flexible approach to creating wireframes/models. Further example: using a series of curved lines to create a tapered bottle wireframe (like a shampoo bottle that is crimped at the top). The user is then able to then create a mesh that follows this curved lines >…
12 votesHello everyone! The Dimension team is very interested in the topic of creation/modeling/editing as a whole. We haven’t added any creation so far, but are actively researching this area. We have a new survey on modeling and editing and would love your thoughts on the topic!

Material Management
An easier way to manage/delete/replace materials applied to the scene

Preview UV Map
I'd like to be able to preview the UV Maps of the object and do some changes to the UV map.
12 votesCan you talk more about what you’d like to do with the UVs and why?
-
Use Rulers
Can we get rulers?

Step and Repeat (Clone/Array)
It would be very usefull if designers could "step and repeat" objects in 3 dimensions to create a "store" visualisation effect. Important issue is that only one object can be modified. If the "master" object is changed, all objects in the "step and repeat" group should be automatically updated.
11 votesGreat suggestion! Thank you for posting details!

Render and design at the same time
It would be nice to render while designing.

Export Videos
Once there is animation support it would be great to export in video.

Support for 3D Printing
STL files and dimensions (metric and imperial) for 3D printing. Manipulation of shapes from anchor points not just scaling. Extruding off of faces
Separate a group of faces from an object to produce 2 different solids without the use of subtraction.11 votesThanks for the suggestions! Just as an FYI we generally track each feature individually, so we do have suggestions for STL support and add/subtract meshes to make new shapes, for example. Might suggest voting on those!
3D printing is definitely something we’re keeping in mind!

Multiple View WIndows
It will be helpful to have different view panel layout on screen while creating file- top/front/3D view together
11 votesWork for multiple view windows hasn’t begun and is still in review. While we understand the value of multiple viewports we have a good bit of work to do on improving the one viewport we currently have. We’re focusing on the current composition, bookmark and render experience for this year but will probably start looking into multiple cameras and viewports more next year.

.dae support
It seems like i can, but when i choose the file i want to import and click open it never apears.

Render Time Limit
It would be useful to set a period of time for the render to use. Combined with my earlier idea, a render queue, you would be able to get a set number of renders at a set time. Very useful in the creative world where deadlines are frequent and always closing in.
I've added a quick scene being rendered on a MacBook Pro (Late 2013 top spec, i7 quadcore 2,6, 16GB ram, GT750M 2GB), medium quality, 1024x768, with a snapshot taken at 30 minutes. It's still going, about 40 minutes now, not much difference in quality, so a way to…
11 votesDefinitely see how that could be useful! Thanks for the suggestion!

Allow Users to Sell 3D Models on Adobe Stock
How can i sell my own OBJ's on Adobe Stock for people to use?
10 votesCurrently Adobe Stock’s 3d content is highly curated and can only be contributed by partners working with the Adobe Stock 3D team. In the future we plan to open this to more users.

Copy and paste models from other DN file
The option to copy between the same software files

Vehicle Models
Vehicles: Would be fantastic if you could make car models available for vehicle wraps. Or at least the option to import blueprints/renderings of them.

Multiple monitor support
When using multiple monitors, i would like to move my pallets to a second monitor.. it seems they are locked into the single view mode. I would especially like to see the preview window moved off of my art-board. some people utilize more than one monitor and would like to see their designs in full screen.
10 votesThanks for the suggestions everyone! We (Adobe as a whole) are considering the next generation of User Interfaces, so this is a discussion that is being taken very seriously across the company. I’d love specific examples of the things you like to dock/undock and why.

Auto-Save
Crashes Then Corrupts Original File - We NEED AUTO Backups!!
If we had automatic backups, my 5 hours of work would not be lost. Felix IS the next major player in the 3D modeling market so this is a MUST HAVE safety feature.
10 votesHello! Definitely a great suggestion and something the team is considering heavily right now. It didn’t make our first few beta releases, but it’s on our roadmap for sure. I’ll let you know when we’re closer. :)

Better Selection Tools (Marquee, Lasso, Paint Select)
Specifically selecting just parts of the model to be able to have different textures or cut out part of the model perhaps. See attached for an idea of what might be accomplished with this. Please give me feedback on if this is already a feature. Thank you.
10 votesGreat suggestion! We definitely want to allow for much more customized selections in the future. You said you’d like to cut out part of the model as well, can you say more about what you mean? Do you want to ‘cut it out’ as a new model?

glTF glB export
GiFT format and this format can become popular soon.
having feature to export Gift from Felix can be a big challenge.
glTF - Runtime 3D Asset Delivery
glTF™ 1.0 (GL Transmission Format) is a royalty-free specification for the efficient transmission and loading of 3D scenes and models by applications. glTF minimizes both the size of 3D assets, and the runtime processing needed to unpack and use those assets. glTF defines an extensible, common publishing format for 3D content tools and services that streamlines authoring workflows and enables interoperable use of content across the industry.10 votesWe’ve begun work on a glTF/glB export which is available as a beta on our prerelease site. Please use the link to join the NDA community below, get early access to features, and provide feedback to the team.
