Can I Model/Create Objects in Dimension CC?

Hi there,

I am new to the Dimension CC program. I am just wondering is it similar to cinema 4D where you can create models and objects from scratch or is it purely for rendering existing 3D objects used from stock or created in other programs?

Thank you!

    The latter.  Dimension has no modeling or creation at this time.  It is aimed for graphic designers to easily take pre-made content (stock content or assets from their 3D team at larger companies) and apply graphics, logos, and labels to the 3D shapes.  It is also a compositing app for easily adding 3D objects to 2D background images using Match Image.

    Hello, you can do something but not in Dn.

    My workflow for this is using Ai for the 3D with the new features and like i made for this project (all made with AI & Dn, no 3D software inside) : https://www.behance.net/gallery/121394707/Black-watch-project

    You need to create a font with fontself and use it in Dn and play with the otion of letter tool.

    I think with the new 3D tool in AI you can do aa lot of work but with limitation. And the option to export a file as an OBJ file is very awesome.

    If you want to know more about this workflow and if i can help you feel free to ask !!!

      Hello, I'm curious about this issue. Could you please explain? As far as I understand, you created a 3D model code using artificial intelligence and when you opened this code in dimension, the model was created, is it true?

      Adobe has since removed 3d from Photoshop

      however there is a simple 3D tool sticky taped into the later Illustrator builds that covers some needs if you only have Adobe software

        For anyone still following, I've made a video tutorial on how to create objects (.obj) in Photoshop for those not familiar with 3D interface software.

              Hi Jeanette,

              Okay thank you for clearing that up!

              I will continue using cinema 4D for modeling then.

              Thanks,
