July 2024 Product Updates

Hi there,

We are thrilled to bring you the latest updates for this month! Our team has been working hard to enhance your experience and provide you with more powerful tools to elevate your projects.

E57 Workflow Release

Starting last week, you can effortlessly extract both point clouds and embedded panoramas from your E57 files directly into Skand. This streamlined process simplifies your workflow and saves you valuable time. This exciting new feature is available to our Pro and Enterprise plan subscribers.

We would like to thank our beta users for their valuable input. Your feedback played a crucial role in making this release a success.

Renderer Performance Improvement

Over the past month, we have continuously improved our renderer performance to minimise latency while navigating through the 3D scene.

These improvements ensure a smoother and more responsive experience as you work on your projects. We hope you enjoy the enhanced performance!

DXF Enhancements

We have resolved several issues related to DXF files, ensuring more reliable handling in the Skand platform. The improvements include:

• Reduced memory usage and faster load times
• Fixed rendering for specific entity types
• Fixed geometry glitches caused by floating point precision issues

You can now expect a smoother and more dependable experience when working with your DXF files.

Coming Soon This Week: Share Link Release

We are excited to roll out the improved share link feature later this week. This update includes enhanced functionalities that will make sharing and collaborating on your projects easier and more effective.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our share link beta program; your feedback has been instrumental in shaping this feature. Stay tuned for the upcoming release!
