Upgraded manipulator UI, modified screenshot rendering and bug fixes in CAD Exchanger Lab
Anti-aliasing is now enabled, and the view cube is disabled during the screenshot generation. The manipulator style was changed to be semi-transparent during active rotation. Moreover, we fixed wrong behavior of colors during opacity changes in "Properties" for B-Rep bodies, as well as the opacity slider when using it to change assembly transparency.
CAD Exchanger SDK enhancements
Expanded API of semantic PMI
CAD Exchanger SDK has a new surface finish component that contains data related to surface texture, and now users can programmatically read this entity and reuse it in downstream applications.
B-Rep simplifier upgrade
Customers of CAD Exchanger SDK noticed that the name of the tool Hole remover does not quite match its functionality. Our developers have changed the parameters, and now this tool fully removes holes in the geometry, relying on four parameters: Extent, Volume, Diagonal Thresholds, and Perform Interference Check.
Web Toolkit Updates
We have added dashed line properties support and improved multi-touch gestures handling. From now on, Web Toolkit on mobile allows you to rotate the model with up to four fingers, select touch points, and zoom smoothly. Speaking of it, the camera handler now allows users to zoom at pointer position (to the point of interest).
New supported format versions: CATIA V5R32, V5R33 and Creo 8, 9
Now CAD Exchanger can read geometry from CATIA V5R32 and V5R33, including parts and assembly files. From 3.18.0, CAD Exchanger supports Creo 8 and 9 and offers conversion to numerous CAD formats
