Registration

3D Canvas is a freeware program. No registration is required.

Use of 3D Canvas is limited by the 3D Canvas License Agreement.

3D Canvas Plus and 3D Canvas Pro include all of the features of 3D Canvas plus these additional features:

bulletReduce Operation

Reduces the number of faces and points in an object while maintaining object detail. In the example below an imported object had its point count reduced from 6000 to 1000 with little affect on the shape of the object.
