Hello,

- Dimension version 4.0.2 

- Mac 13.6.8 (15" 2017) (Maybe downgrade version is the solution here)

 

When I move a saved camera, Dimension automaticaly overwrites its position.

It's important to be able to test new pov before we decide to overwrite them.

 

regards

Actually, I just reinstalled v3.4.11

This version is far from perfect, it is slow, rendering stops if computers goes to sleep… some basic features are missing, but at least, it works.

With some basic shapes you can mode somethingl, not just import preexisting 3D objects, it is interesting.

 

While v4.0.2 is a nightmare (sorry guys, but it is true)

It broke my cameras, my models, crashes on startup, starts rendering unexpectedly (when does start/stop raytracing ? why so many places to start / stop rendering ?)

keyboards shortcuts have no effect on UI elements (maybe users need feedbacks…)

the toggle near the camera object in the lits (small circled checkbox) allows to activate the view, and displays a tooltip telling you can "exit" the view. Nope…

When I delete something it remains in the list, or it is deleted from the list but remains in the scene

it is hella slow (it would be better if it were frozen)

 

I had a meeting, I didn't notice Dimension had been updated. I start the app, allows to convert the file.

30 minutes later, we stopped the meeting. It was useless to continue

In a freelance mode, I would have lost the client

 

Maybe a few non-regression tests are required 😉

Or at least, you warn us when an update requires a complete hardware renewal 

 

Regards

YEs, about camera thereis a note What's new | Dimension (adobe.com)

 

The rendering engines for both real-time and ray-tracing modes have been updated, and the latest version of the Adobe Standard Material has also been updated. These changes may result in visual differences from previous versions of Dimension.

Camera bookmarks have been replaced with camera objects and are now located in the scene panel. A scene can have multiple camera objects with different resolutions. Resolution is no longer a document-wide setting.  Camera bookmarks will be imported and converted to camera objects from previous Dimension files.

The environment light system has been updated to include image light layers that can be positioned, scaled, and colorized independently.

Several tools and capabilities have been added, including the Align & Distribute tool, bounding box snapping, and the ability to preserve pivot data when importing files.

There are many other small changes including updates to the scene panel and properties panel interface, shortcuts, icons, placement of controls, and more.
