Dear Micheal Gibson,

I notice that the changes in the 5V beta version are there, but could you please tell us what you intend to do more in your 3D Moi v5 beta version and what changes you intend to make.

It would be nice to see:

1) Introducing a new function such as Constraints that allows users or designers to do perfect curve designs.

2) Introduction of center lines in drawings.

3) To introduce guide curves to the LOFT command.

So far, I am very pleased with the changes you have made to 3DMoi V5 and I hope the upgrade will benefit the users or designers who use it for their hobbies or businesses.

Hi Ray,

Most of the effort currently is in improving the ACIS library integration for filleting.

In MoI the sweep command can be used for this, it supports using 2 rails as guide curves for the sweep.

Dear Micheal Gibson,

It is greatly appreciated that you responded so quickly. My purpose in mentioning Loft command is to demonstrate its power, but it only requires powerful guide curves to accomplish what you intend. I understand your response, and I am eager to take advantage of 3Dmoi's capabilities. Once again, thank you.

The other question you don't answer is are you going to implement the Constrains in the 3DMoi v5 software system, since members of this forum mention it too.

The 3DMoi software is very useful to me, and I hope you'll notice the Gallery with some of the outstanding work that the majority of users do, like I do.

We are grateful for your time and support provided to this life forum.

Unfortunately, constraints are a large and complex area to work on. It would take a considerable amount of time to implement constraints inside Moi so that makes it unlikely to happen in the v5 time frame.

Thanks, - Michael
