Hi, thanks for answering!

Only the generated .scad would be great! I mean, I see to use cases for that that would be helpful for me:

1. Asking for a base model, download it as .scad and them improve it through OpenSCAD accordingly to my needs

2. Starting modeling in OpenSCAD, them ask the AI for some boring task (e.g. generate honeycomb patterns, hooks, hinges, and so on)

> also would love to know what your use case is and why you are more interested in parametric

Most of my use cases of 3D printing is for tools, household utilities, spare parts, etc. Because of that, my favorite tool is OpenSCAD, and I use it a lot.

But I reckon that it is sometimes really boring. Sometimes I need to spend a lot of time with trigonometry and other math tricks and less with modeling itself. For example, the aforementioned honeycomb patterns, I've spent some hours of my life playing with sines, cosines, apothems, etc while I think that it would be a job that an AI could do for me.

ok thanks for the feedback and consider it done! we'll add .scad for export!

you can also use creative mode for functional single part objects. i've made cool cupholders, plant pots and desk ornaments with it
