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.
11 votes -
Camera Animation
The ability to animate the camera to move over time. Moving by keyframe or along a path in 3D space.

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.

Add bump map/texture
It would be a good idea to add bump map/ edit texture UVs feature

Custom Render layers
It would be extremely helpful to be able to set up render layers with alpha channel for each Model, model sub component and material. This makes post work in PS much quicker and precise. Re-rendering also is much quicker if a layer can be swapped out - rather than a full re-render of the scene.
11 votesGreat suggestion and something we’re interested in supporting. :)
-
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!
-
Custom UV Mapping for Decals
A way to fix UV mapping or the ability to choose specific faces to apply decals to. I'm working with complex shapes and decals are currently not cooperating with me
10 votesHello! In our next release we’ve added automatic UV generation and error fixing so if you have a model with no UVs or that we detect UV errors you’ll get a prompt to resolve the issue.
This process is currently fully automatic and we are not yet adding manual UV mapping and controls. Once the new feature is out we’ll continue to evaluate providing manual custom UV controls.

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

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?

Allow Users to Sell 3D Models on Adobe Stock
How can i sell my own OBJ's on Adobe Stock for people to use?
9 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.
-
Add scripting support
Please add scripting support (Javascript/Applescript/VBscript). Allow users to open,close and save files, replace surfaces images, set render settings, and render documents.
9 votes -
Multiple Documents or Scenes Open
Being able to open multiple instances of the application or work on multiple scenes during rendering.

embed into inDesign
Allow Felix 3D models to embed into inDesign for .epub output!
9 votesThanks for the suggestion! I’d love to know some specific workflows you’d like to do here. For example is it for product shots inside a design document or something? Great suggestion.
