Hugo Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Tech, Any news about the next update, 8.5.7, because still some important bugs appear in version 8.5.6. One is the reshape tool that ruins the geometry, (I sent you screen movies about this). Hope to hear (update) from you soon. Thank you in advance.

Tech Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi Hugo, Yes, we are working on more updates for the not too distant future. We see that you have found a case whereby changing options mid operation can result in an object that is not selectable until the file is saved and reopened. Thanks for your report, we will get this corrected. If you have anything else, please send an email to support@formz.com with details so we can make sure that everything is addressed.
