Whats' new in this release
Floor view
- Create Room command has been modified: when you draw a room starting from a polyline, the program asks you to indicate the thickness of the wall, thus allowing you to indicate a different value than the default thickness set in the options mask.
- It is easier to create a new room when there are small edges in the floor plan.
- Option to insert arch/circular openings in the walls of the room
- Moving a room is simpler than in R1. In the event that two rooms have to be sided each other, it is much simpler to proceed, as it is possible to select the corner of the compartment and snap it through the hooking points present in the destination room.
- Option to insert the velux window in the sloping ceiling
- Self-completion for the definition of sloping ceiling: if all the heights of the different edges of the room are not known, the program automatically calculates them
Tiling features
- You can insert vertical tiling at the right edge of the wall
Rendering
- When a light bulb is converted into a spotlight, the correct default values for this type of lighting are automatically set.
- When you split a room, the Application inserts and positions the lights correctly in each room.
Miscellaneous
- The conversion of projects made with previous versions has been improved. In the event that it is not possible to recover the floor plan correctly, DomuS3D 2019 keeps the trace of the former walls using special cyan-colored lines
Bug fix
- Fixed issues when changing the visibility of the external walls
- Fixed issues related to wall modeling
- Fixed issues related to the definition of the sloping ceiling using ridge lines
