Field notes
The interface keeps named parts, exact dimensions and the model view together, with light and dark modes. Users can sketch on a plate or face, extrude or revolve drawings, and later reopen a sketch for edits; number fields accept units, fractions and arithmetic. The page says designs can use millimetres, centimetres or inches while exported slicer files use millimetres.
