The new tool is extremely useful. The way it fits in the current toolset...beautiful.

Ok, building new beta release now.

New Sep-17-2025 v5 beta version now available at
https://moi3d.com/beta.htm

Will be working on full release notes a bit later, there are more functions integrated from the ACIS geometry kernel.

Selected faces can now be manipulated with the Transform > Move, Transform > Rotate and Transform > Rotate Axis
commands. This uses the ACIS direct model editing component to extend and intersect surrounding faces to
accommodate the change.

Enables dynamic editing of solids like this:






New RemoveAndFill command - use Shift+Delete keyboard shortcut or Shift+click or right click on Delete button to invoke ACIS Remove component that deletes faces and then heals the resulting openings by extending and intersecting surrounding faces:




ACIS Shell function is now used by the MoI Construct > Offset > Shell command.


Also lots of fixes for ACIS filleting.

Smooth!

Very cool, thanks Michael. Going to install it right away.

Hi Michael.

Thanks for the advice on using the Offset tool - it worked beautifully.

With the new Delete Face tool I'm able to discard any superfluous parts to get the cores as I want them.

All the new features are working great with only the occasional 'phantom surface' when I Shell fairly complex parts. I could send a file if you need one.

As I only have a slow laptop, I can get a significant lag when using the new Move Face tool as MoI updates whilst trying to keep up with mouse movement, so I wondered if the live update could somehow be suspended until Moi had locked onto an intersection point or maybe turned off if necessary?


Thanks again.
Martin.

Hi Martin,

Yes it would be helpful to get the file, especially before doing the shell so I can repeat the steps.
Please e-mail it to me at moi@moi3d.com .

I'll put in an option for this.

Thanks, - Michael
