Higher resolution for decals would be nice. Had to add a decal to a product shot and it was pixilated on the render image.
Really annoying because I wasn't able to make FINAL detail shots of the product and had to add the decals in Photoshop by hand.

BTW: Is there a limit for the resolution of decals?

Would love the addition of Displacement maps so we can get some added details out of certain models. Would add a lot of realism for an otherwise flat world of extras beside normals.

I do a lot of product photos, would love to be able to generate what is needed to make the new Facebook 3D photos.

Add more control points to the decal positioning feature. Art needs to map more accurately to the model.

It would be nice to be able to render full stop. This software is a joke on even the simplest of designs. GPU and CUDA please, all this metal implementation and your own engine idea that means buying a new mac or hardware is a liberty. Guess what, an inconvenient truth is that most renderers use CUDA based GPU's. Dimension is actually even slower than it was , I've watched fossils form while this has been rendering.

Is there any plans to include cross section feature? that can be very helpful to built empty boxes from any object.

Imported CAD models sometimes have sharp edges that need to be smoothed. Can this be fixed in-render per object? (My current workaround, filets in CAD = yuck.)

Extrusion is a technique where a flat 2D shape or surface is pulled out to give it depth. Vector extrusion would allow users to import vectors as paths, then extrude those paths into 3D shapes. This would include some additional parameters like hard or rounded corners.

I've got this issue : I needed a patch on a top can render because the end result was less than acceptable.

So I extracted the geometry to render, but the inner part of it was hidden in the first object, and now exposed.

So the new masks became "useless", with the hidden parts revealed…

I'd love to have an object layer with normals exposed, say top is red, bottom is blue. I would usually not see that, but that would have helped.

Could we review the "starter's object can"'s geometry ? It's dirty and any anisotropy or bumped material places on top gives weird results… And of course, depending on the repetitions, the triangles are more or less obvious…

Qued rendering/animation

The library cannot be loaded (clickable but all white) after renderring

Depth slider for decals as seen in Keyshot

It would be awesome to be able to create multiple “product configurations” that can be setup for easy rendering. For example, take a product packaging scene that needs many different textures for multiple product label versions/locales/languages/etc. Currently, each variation must be rendered out by hand individually, and there is no way to batch anything at the moment.

In this scenario, each camera "render view" would still be the same, but the textures, materials, models, environment, etc. could all change.

Take a look how Onshape and Keyshot handle their configurations. Onshape's configurations, though a CAD package, is incredibly powerful!

Render Settings: Keep the "most recent" views selected when switching back to the Design tab. Currently, going back to Design resets this selection list every time to Current View, and I am constantly forgetting to re-check everything before hitting render.

Specific animations for each object

When many windows are open and rendering is happening to a file in the background it is too easy to interrupt the render by double clicking on a .dn file. Can you give an alert box to prevent interrupting the render in progress?
