SOLIDWORKS Visualize SOLIDWORKS® Visualize is a separately purchased product that you can use with SOLIDWORKS Standard, SOLIDWORKS Professional, and SOLIDWORKS Premium, or as a completely separate application. Video: What's New in SOLIDWORKS 2022 - SOLIDWORKS Visualize Contents Match Camera Perspective to Backplate With the Match Camera tool, you can manipulate a camera by aligning vanishing lines to a backplate image. This allows more precise positioning of a model in front of a backplate. Shadow Catcher Property You can turn any part object geometry into a shadow catcher object. Shadow catchers show the background through them and display shadows cast from lighting in the scene. For example, you can create a wall and specify it as a shadow catcher. Scenes Tab Floor Effects parameters on the Scenes tab have been renamed for consistency with the shadow catcher functionality. Animations Animations are improved in areas such as motion studies, organization, keyframes, and cameras. Render Output Viewer You can use the render Output Viewer to manage render jobs and their respective output on a per project basis. You can recall (or re-execute) any previous rendering done in a project, directly from the render Output Viewer. Patterns The Pattern tool is an evolution of the traditional Formation functionality. Corner Radius The Corner Radius functionality is enhanced to smooth edges in parts. Cosmetic Threads For more realistic-looking models, SOLIDWORKS Visualize automatically applies a normal map to models imported with cosmetic threads.
