What is Plasticity?
Plasticity brings solid and surface modeling into a workspace focused on shaping geometry directly. It is a useful option for printable product shells, props and hard-surface concepts where smooth transitions and rounded edges matter. Export quality and available formats depend on the edition.

Understand the tradeoffs.
Direct modeling favors quick shape changes. Check your edition’s export restrictions and whether you need a history-based CAD workflow for future revisions.
