Development of 3D editor

Component used in view/edit application integrated in OptiWin

To satisfy the increasing requirements to handle light calculation in complex 3D environments, we have developed a 3D editor. This is a component used in a independent view/edit application integrated in OptiWin. 

General usage:

• Reads and writes all versions of DWG drawing files
• Presents drawings with flat information as well as flat model
• Selection, rotation, scaling and relocation of objects
• Makes groups and split ups
• Insertion of external objects (e.g. interior)
• Full undo/redo 
• Supports OpenGI and DirectX
• Handles layouts
• Changes properties of the active object using commands, relocate with pointer or change the properties from property list 

Special properties for light calculation:

• Defines and handles a series of object using commands, relocate with pointer or change the properties from property list
• Changes between box-representation and full 3D-representation of luminaires
• Locks the objects
• ++

3D Editor is used by Aker Solutions in large installation projects, like oil platforms and production plants. Aker Solutions is leading in 3D modelling. The 3D editor is functionally and visually aligned to their modeling tools to increase productivity.

Glamox is using the 3D editor in their last generation of OptiWin, providing better and faster editing of complex environments, and enforcing the strong CAD integration.  

Development tools/technology:

• CAD basisbiblioteker
• VB.Net
• AutoCad
