The Paint app will soon be completely overhauled!

Microsoft is building a Windows 10 version for its popular Paint tool which will reportedly bring in 3D object support. The newly designed app will introduce some other interesting features as well. At the moment, the company is in the testing phase and will soon be released to the public.

According to The Verge, Microsoft is adding in 3D object support, which will be an “ideal addition” for HoloLens. A launch video shared by Twitter user WalkingCat notes that the app has all the regular features along with the ability to create 3D objects. There are a range of art tools and markers to help create these objects too.

All of the tools appear to be pen- and touch-friendly, with an interface that mixes 3D models, 2D images, stickers, and community tools for 3D content, the report added. It also includes a Community integration which allows you to insert images and 3D objects created by others into your creation without leaving the app.

Microsoft is planning a special event in New York on October 26 where it is expected to unveil a new Surface device, which could be an all in one desktop PC.
