Simple way to make the surface slope in *one direction*

Issue:
When creating a 3D “angled” shape in Carbide Create Pro, there’s no simple way to make the surface slope in one direction so it’s higher on one edge and lower on the opposite. Instead, Carbide Create applies the angle symmetrically around the shape’s center, which produces a “pyramid” or “tent” shape.

Why it’s a problem:
Many users want a single‐direction ramp (e.g. one side at 0″ height, the other side at 0.2″ height). Currently, there’s no direct “tilt line” or “start edge/end edge” feature, so you must resort to complex workarounds (splitting shapes, layering multiple shapes, or stepping).

Suggested Feature:
A “Tilt” or “Sloped Edge” option that lets you define a high side and a low side—by clicking two points or specifying start/end heights. This would automatically create a one‐direction slope rather than the current symmetrical pyramid.

Use a smooth gradient image like this one & import it to make the model component.
