Auto-Select Single .scad File for OpenSCAD Customization

[SnaKKo]

I’m writing to suggest a usability improvement for OpenSCAD models.
Currently, when a user clicks “customize,” they’re forced to select a .scad file, even when there’s only one file available.

This unnecessary step adds friction to the workflow.
To streamline the process, the site should automatically select the only existing .scad file, eliminating the need for this redundant choice.

What do you think?

They should try to remove that point of friction soon. I would say 80% of the parametric models will just contain one file.

We had a chat going on about this here:

Parametric Model Maker Review and Feedback

That’s all really good feedback as well. Basically they can take the OpenSCAD format to the next level and add new features, or even support growing the open source specification. Another request is to not make users click Customize > Select the model file > click Customize again when there is only one model. [image]

This request has been made in other posts.

Let’s hope they find one of them and act on it.

Agreed, I just posted the same request, deleted in favor of this post.
