✨ Preview Optimization

2. Real-Time Mini-Window for Rotary Processing

When using the RA3 rotary attachment on the P3 and the M2 (in automatic modeling mode), you can preview the design's position on the object's surface in real time.

Complete with a centerline guide and accessory rendering, alignment reference is easier than ever.

3. Enhanced Glass Inner Engraving Preview

Features highly realistic glass material and lighting rendering. The engraved point cloud is presented inside a translucent glass body with accurate highlights and refraction.

By switching between warm light, cold light, and lights-off modes, you can easily preview the finished texture and lighting aesthetics before processing.
