A lot has been added to AxoTools since the last update here, including new tools, extruding in live Transformations panel objects, gradients in shaded extruded surfaces, and user-definable lighting.
The feature wish list has actually pretty much disappeared, so the focus now is on refining (and continued debugging) what’s already there. Some people still find the interface confusing, which may really be more of an issue of training resources than anything else. It’s also been suggested that AxoTools is becoming “bloated” from too many features.
That said, one feature that may be worth considering is creating fasteners at the current axonometric angles. Since the 1990s I’d used clipart to copy and paste them, and wished I had a tool to drop them in at the right scale and angle as needed.
Please share your thoughts on where to go from here.
