August Feature Update Summary

 

1.Rendering & Lighting

1.1 Camera Lens Correction
Highlight:
Added a one-click correction function for camera perspective distortion.
This restores tilted or curved lines to natural vertical or horizontal alignment, improving visual accuracy and helping beginners find the right camera angle.

How to use:
Enter the rendering module, go to the camera settings panel, and click [Correct].

Notes:
1.Rotating the camera: correction remains active when [Correct] is checked.
2.Moving the camera: correction will be disabled if [Correct] is unchecked.

 

 

1.2 HDR Environment Maps for Exterior Scenes

Added HDR map support for exterior environments.

 

Comparison: With HDR enabled, reflections from windows cast more realistic light into interiors, especially around window frames, creating richer light and shadow effects.

How to use:
1.Enter the rendering module, select [Environment].
2.Scroll to Exterior, select an exterior option, and open the exterior settings.
3.Hover over the exterior settings button, enable HDR exterior lighting, and click [Render Now].
4.Recommended exterior light intensity: 0.8–1 for the most realistic results.

 

Benefits:
-HDR records a wider range of brightness details, providing more realistic lighting and reflections in 3D models.
-Enhances light simulation in indoor scenes with multiple light sources.
-Different HDR maps can showcase lighting changes at different times of day.
-Materials such as stainless steel and glass gain realistic reflections and refractions, boosting scene realism.

1.3 Image Editor Improvements
1.Added left/right navigation buttons with keyboard support (← →).
2.Toolbar now floats, with optional fixed position. If not fixed, move the mouse to the bottom to reveal it.

3.Thumbnail list now shows all effect images for the current project.

2. Aluminum Doors & Windows

2.1 Glass Grilles for Insulated Glass

Multi-layer insulated glass now supports adding grille patterns.
Users can configure spacing, style, and material, with auto-adaptive resizing based on window size.

 

2.2 Track Handrail Function

Supports installation of track handrails for single windows, combination windows, and corner windows.
Styles can be replaced via the front-end interface.
In combination windows, handrails connect automatically when conditions are met.
Handrails adjust dynamically with track position.

 

 

2.3 Automatic Track Profile Replacement

For sliding windows: placing a sash automatically replaces the track profile.
Deleting a sash reverts the profile to a frame style, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
Supports automatic replacement of fixed-top and fixed-bottom sliding profiles for various design scenarios.

 

 

2.4 Square Tubes for Combination Windows

Combination windows now support adding square tubes.
Length can be adjusted manually.

 

2.5 Top-Fixed Screen Panel in Casement Series

Enhanced adaptability for ceiling-mounted installation scenarios.

Shortened screen panels can avoid obstacles (e.g., curtain boxes, tracks, ceilings), preventing misfits caused by space restrictions.
Works similarly to the existing “shortened screen” function.
Breaks traditional installation height limits, enabling better compatibility with complex layouts and varied interior designs.
Provides users with more flexible installation solutions.
