When you import a SOLIDWORKS model into SOLIDWORKS Visualize, you can now
import all custom defined SOLIDWORKS Cameras, custom saved views, and physical
lights.
Cameras and Saved Views
When you import a SOLIDWORKS model and choose to import
Cameras, all cameras and custom SOLIDWORKS views are
imported into SOLIDWORKS Visualize. These import as SOLIDWORKS Visualize Cameras and
are displayed in the Camera’s tab in SOLIDWORKS Visualize. All aspects of SOLIDWORKS
cameras and saved views are maintained and replicated in SOLIDWORKS Visualize.
To import cameras and saved views, the model must be saved in SOLIDWORKS
2018.
Physical Lights
When you import a SOLIDWORKS model and choose to import
Lights, all directional, point, and spot lights saved in
the SOLIDWORKS model are imported as SOLIDWORKS Visualize Lights on the
Scenes tab. All aspects of SOLIDWORKS lights are maintained
when translated to SOLIDWORKS Visualize.
All imported lights are disabled by default when imported,
regardless of whether they were ON in SOLIDWORKS and/or PhotoView 360 when the model
was saved. Ambient light sources are never imported from SOLIDWORKS.
