3D quality setings

[ledo]

Where in ProE are the settings for better quality of 3D output. So the quality is better but there is aperformance drop.

Hey ledo, not exactly sure what your after but for starters try this :


View - Display settings - Model display.


From here you get shader options, edge quality, smooth lines etc.


The shade quality is default set to 3 as to not upset anyones machines. Whenever I start pro-e I now set my to 10 straight away. I dont create Massive assembly`s so it doesnt really effect the performance of my machine. I am yet to find an "easy" way to have this set by 10 default. Cant be arsed with mapkeys

a better way to ask what you asked is how do I create a higher resolution tessellation

See, when a nurbs modeler such as Pro/ENGINEER renders to the screen it has to convert the surfaces (in Pro/ENGINEER's case parametric 3d solids model) into polygons on the fly. These polygons are typically set to a low setting so when cad managers preform bench marks with default settings the software will out preform the competitor.

I have not looked into it (maybe someone can comment) but to set the tessellation settings so Pro/E starts with those settings there would be config options. You can't set those types of settings in the start part.

The tessellation setting design-engine mentioned is controled by the edge_display_quality option in the config.pro which is the Edge Quality setting under View>Display Settings>Model Display>Edge/Line.

Yes i played arround with


View - Display settings - Model display


And it is better. Thanxs for answers.

One thing missing in proe is the option to re-display a zoomed in part with increased accuracy to actually see what you are doing... (e.g. I-DEAS has this option)

When you are zoomed in to change a sketch in the 0.00x mm area, lines are displayed VERY inaccurately, especially on rounded curves/circles. This makes it total guesswork where to click to select your curve or draw anything...
