Importing meshes to Blocks
Being able to tweak mesh vertices/edges/faces in VR would be a big time saver for me, but Blocks' current toolset for creating new meshes is somewhat limited.

Will we be able to import meshes from any OBJ or FBX files in the future? I'd be happy if the import process included simplifying the number of vertices, flattening colors, closing open shapes or anything else necessary to make them compatible with the Blocks editor.

Thanks for the suggestion! For right now, we are not supporting import of other OBJs but we will keep it in mind as we continue to develop!

Is this feature still being considered? Blocks is a great editor and I'd love to be able to import other models I've made and edit them.

Hi Jerad! We are not currently working on that feature, but we will keep it in mind for continued development. Thanks for your feedback!

Any updates as of 2019? Loving Blocks and Tilt Brush, would love to be able to easily upload my own STLs / OBJs and view them in there, don't even need to be able to edit! Would just love to view in VR easily and pick up, etc...

If I remember correctly, I think I was eventually able to in Google's Tilt Brush. Just upload .obj into Google Poly, then from Tilt Brush sign into ur Poly account and you should be able to select everything you've uploaded from Poly and view it in VR.

Yeah for Tilt brush it works just fine, I'd just like to add the models to blocks and edit the geometry there :)
