How do I keep an opaque decal on a transparent bottle?When I make the bottle transparent, the decal fades out as well.

I'm trying to make a transparent wrapper in Dimension so you can see the contents within. The wrapper has a Decal applied so I can't use the transparency setting. A search tells me to use the translucency setting.In the Design window playing with this parameter gives me the look I want is rather crudely rendered. However when I do a proper render the wrapper just ends up white opaque. What am I doing wrong and while I am at it can someone give me some decent settings for a crear plastic wrapper with relections on it? I'm using Dimension 1.1.1 which is the highest version my Mac supports. Thanks! 

Why is the image blurry when the quality is set to high from dimension？

Hi!! Not sure why my model turned black when i exported it to aero from dimension . The published model is perfectly rendered by dimension u can check it here . https://assets.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:ac8950de-a0e6-410a-8340-4d2abc572ff9?view=dimension Also not quite sure why inside dimension, my model turns from  first image to the second if i hit generate UV  Desired result After hitting generate uv      

Where is the horizon tool? I'm referring to this one. My tool bar does not look like this: This is what my toolbar looks like:

Hello, I've created several beautiful renders of products successfully in Dimension, but have hit a roadblock with one particular model.   This file is an OBJ, approx. 4.3Gb in size.  It's a product designed in Autodesk Inventor, shrinkwrapped and exported to OBJ.  During export we used the medium resolution preset for the OBJ.   The resulting OBJ file is huge, but Adobe Dimension will import it.  I get the file importing progress bar, and when finished, it appears that the OBJ imported successfully.  It shows up in the Scene panel as expected, but the model never shows in the preview window.  If I select the model in the Scene panel and try to move it or perform any other transformation the software grinds to a halt.  We've tried working with this on a few different machines, including a standalone tower built specifically for rendering.  Computer horsepower shouldn't be the problem, but again - I recognize the

I can't get dimension to let me apply a graphic to the entire model at once.I can place the image on the model in different sections but how do I get it to apply to all the sections at once?As I drage the image on the model it jumps from section to section.There is only one material on the model andI've tried Generate UVs - but that didn't help

Hi guys, I've extruded a simple 3D text in C4D and exported it as OBJ file. But once I imported the OBJ file into Dimension I get this crazy result. The set up from c4d is just a simple 5 cm extrude. I've tried it a few times, it looks ok in c4d but once it is imported into dimension this crazy result happen. I'm still new to adobe Dimension and c4d. Does anyone know how to solve this? Thank you guys.

this question has been coming up a lot so here is an example of what they are and why you would use them the Dn file tools; Adobe Fuse Adobe Photoshop Adobe Dimension

How can I map a graphic to a form leaving only the graphic and no texture on the form?

Hi everyone, I´d like to know if there´s a simple way to make imported files less complex. Here´s the problem: I am using the ESKO Studio Plugin for Adobe Illustrator to export "folded" objekts like displays made of cardboard as an .U3D file to open these in Photoshop. Then I export my 3D layer as an .OBJ File in order to open/import this file in Adobe Dimension. The pitty is, that already my 3D layer in PS has so many seperate texture files included, that the final work in Dimension gets really slow, especially when I duplicate these objects. I often have to save my work in order not to crash the application and sometimes, when I try to re-open saved files, I get an error message that something went wrong and dimension wont work properly. Even after restarts of the app and the system some of the .dn files can´t be opened again. Using DN 3.3 on mac high sierra/mojave. Any tips to "flatten/merge" all these textures already in PS to make this process less complex? I already try to g

HI!  Anyone has tips? I am trying to decrease a file size🙏🙏 

I have designed a label and put it on the 3d model, but the text and image become bulurry, i tried to render it with high resolution, but the result aren’t so good. the image file was in png, and the file itself was pretty good.

Is Adobe going to allow AMD GPU cards work with Dimension? I'm running a 2017 MBP with a Razor Core X and AMD RX Vega 64.  Thanks for your help. 

HI! wondering if there is anywhere inside dimension that indicates the number of tris for a model? 

During our design process we need to apply or edit materials and images on several object in our design scene simultaneously. We can do that in several ways. First we can use Selection Tool for selecting all similar object and edit them. The Second way is selection of several objects and go to Object Menu and group them for creating a group from all Selected Objects. Than we and apply the same material or decals on that group. In Adobe Dimension we can use the third way. It includes "Past as Instance" command that allows to create instances from the same object. That creates new "instances" from the original object which allows to edit materials or decals on one object that will reflect the same changes on the other "instances" of that object. Here is how it works. Create an object or place some assets from library into canvas. Choose any material from Material Library and apply to that object Select any image from Image Library and drop that image on object. Select the new created obj

I've created a file in Dimensions and it looks great, my boss is happy with the lighting and the overall appearance. When I render the file out of DN it doesn't match the appearance of the working file (brighter, washed out, loss of detail in the graphics)? Is there a reason for this? Do I need to purchase rendering software to do a better job than DN is able to produce?

I am on a new iMac with the following specs:OS: CatalinaDisplay: 5kProcessor: 3.7 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5Memory: 16 GB 2667 MHz DDR4Graphics: Radeon Pro 580X 8 GB and Adobe Dimension is crawling.  Issues:1_ I am mainly using custom Substance materials and it's a pain to not being able to save them in the Substance material library within Dimension. Secondly, you are not able to save the parameter settings so they can be easily applied to any components that need them or future projects. Is that on the feature request list?2_ Every time I apply (drag and drop) the Substance texture onto the surface of my 3D model it takes forever. I have no other programs open other than a chrome window with a few tabs and my font program. Usually, it doesn't even compute on the first drag and drop, only on the second and only if you save the file in between. Any insight on these things? Thanks!

I have noticed an issue with the latest version of Dimension, the GPU rendering option is not available when using a GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER graphics card. After numerous conversations with Adobe tech support I found out that my particular graphics card has not been tested and so the option is unavailable in 3.3. This seemed strange to me as when I first used 3.3 it did work and then it kept crashing so obviously a software issue, the adobe tech guys told me to change my graphics card to one they have tested, not really the answer I wanted. After having no luck whatsover with Adobe Tech people who dont really know alot about their own software if you ask me, I decided to try downgrading my version of Dimension, so I went back to 3.2, amazingly this 'older' version works and used GPU rendering with my graphics card. I think Adobe really need to look at their latest version and fix the bugs in it or test all graphics card before issuing GPU rendering option.

Hi, I was hoping to get some adviceI am using adobe dimension to make art that I will use and distribute commerically online and as physical products. If I use the standard assets that come with adobe dimension, such as the 3D objects and materials, are these licensed for commerical use or can I get in trouble if I want to copyright or distribute my art that I made using them?  Thank you! 

It's been about a year since I've last used Dimension (and at least an update or two), but I can't seem to find many of the assets I used to use. For example, all the liquid materials (oil, beer, water, etc.) and some other solid materials (like glass, glowing, etc.) seem to be gone. (NOTE: I've found some old projects I have where I used those assets; the objects I've applied the material to (glass in this case) is still there and with the glass material applied, but I still don't see it (the glass material) in any of the Dimension menus.) I get why they would not advertise this (removing of free assets), but I just want to see if I'm just being dumb and am overlooking them. So, I guess my questions is, “Does anyone know if they (the free assets) have been moved or removed completely from Adobe Dimension's 'Starter Assets'?" Thanks!   EDIT: Turns out it's true. I am, in fact, an idiot. What I was looking for is under "Adobe Standard Materials" (located directl

Is it possible to save a Dimension 3D render with rotating capabilities once exported? I've created a 3D in Dimensions, have shared a link for my client to review with full rotation available, he loves that he can spin the render around to see all sides. Is there a way to save a final rendering/file with this capability? 

I've just recently updated my adobe dimension to v3.3 and after that, it's not working properly, as soon it launches, it tells me"Check Creative Cloud StatusUse the Creative Cloud application to sign in, begin a trial, or purchase Dimension.
