Description

Use Enhanced Transparency

Enhanced transparency provides improved rendering for transparent surfaces, particularly for complex transparent surfaces, intersecting transparent surfaces, and transparent surfaces that surround other surfaces. Rather than using surfaces' bounding boxes to determine their distance from the viewpoint, enhanced transparency utilizes pixel-by-pixel analysis to determine the order in which the surfaces must be rendered. Using enhanced transparency increases the consumption of GPU memory and reduces the number of images per second. This option applies to the entire scene.

Place Dropped Products Under Cursor

If your software version contains the "Layout" option, you can add products to the scene by drag-and-drop. Keep this option checked in order to place new products at the location of the cursor when you release the mouse button to drop them. If this option is not enabled, dropped products will be placed at the 3D world's origin.
