DrawPad Pro.stl
iOS Universel / Graphisme et design
DrawPad Pro.stl turns your 2D sketches into 3D-printable models right on iPad. Draw a shape, tap Extrude, and watch the canvas itself tilt into a live 3D view — then export a watertight binary .stl file ready for your slicer.
Built for makers, not five-year-olds. A precise outline pen, shape snap for exact primitives, layered text in any system font, and a real polygon triangulator that handles holes through your model. Designed from the ground up for Apple Pencil on iPad.
— SKETCH TO 3D —
• Draw closed outlines with a precision pen built on PencilKit
• Shape Snap auto-cleans rough freehand into exact rectangles, circles, triangles, stars, polygons and more
• Insert Shape — stamp clean primitives (circle, square, triangle, pentagon, hexagon, octagon, star, heart) by dragging their bounding box on the canvas
• Layers for stacking multiple outlines, each of which becomes a separate 3D body in the exported model
• Mirror & Pattern tool with vertical, horizontal, four-way and radial symmetry (2–16 slices) — draw one cog tooth, get the whole cog
• Bucket fill for coloring your 2D designs, without breaking the vector strokes underneath
— REAL 3D EXTRUSION —
• Tap Extrude and the canvas tilts into a live SceneKit 3D view
• Scrub the height slider to change the extrusion depth in real time
• Orbit the model freely with a drag — fully-lit, physically-based shading, no loading screens
• Holes through the model: draw a cog outer and a circle for the axle and the extruder produces a hollow body, not a filled disc
• Smooth cylindrical walls — adaptive segment count means round shapes render as real cylinders, not faceted prisms
— 3D TEXT —
• Drop in text boxes using any system font installed on your iPad
• Glyphs are extruded as true 3D letters with correct holes in O, A, B, D, P, R — powered by SceneKit's glyph tessellator
• Drag to reposition, two-finger edit content, pick from a searchable font picker with live preview
— EXPORT STL —
• Writes industry-standard binary STL files
• Compatible with Cura, PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer and every mainstream 3D printer
• Share directly to Files, AirDrop, email, or any installed slicer app
• The geometry you see on screen is exactly what ends up in the file
— PRO TOUCHES —
• Built exclusively for iOS 16 and later on iPad and iPhone
• Apple Pencil support with pressure-aware strokes and palm rejection
• Autosave catches you if the app is swiped away mid-sketch
• No subscription, no ads, no in-app purchases, no analytics, no
tracking
• Works completely offline — your designs never leave your device
DrawPad Pro.stl is a one-time purchase. Your first 3D print starts with a sketch.
Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
Version 1.3.1 — Tracing-quality photo zoom, sturdier undo, fill tool paused
Fixed:
• Imported photos scale and pan together with the strokes you draw on top of them. Pinch-zooming used to leave the photo pinned to the screen while only the drawing layer zoomed, which made tracing impossible. The photo is now locked to the canvas at the moment of import and tracks pinch-zoom and pan one-to-one with your work.
• Undo no longer brings strokes back the next time you draw. Pressing back used to remove the last stroke correctly, but the next new stroke would re-emit every previously-undone stroke as a side effect. The stroke cache is now fully reset on every undo so each new stroke commits cleanly on top of the post-undo state.
Changed:
• Bucket Fill is temporarily disabled. The tool was producing an all-white canvas and freezing the app on iPad. Tapping the Fill button now shows a "Fill is temporarily disabled" message; the implementation is preserved and will return as soon as the iPad regression is reproduced and squashed.
Thanks for printing with DrawPad Pro.stl.
