How to manage 3D prints

From Opera Wiki

The setup framework of technical prints

The following are the steps for managing 3D rendering:

Installation

• Go to Workshop --> Technical Print Setup

• Click on the button File:Tastorendering3d.png

N.B: If not done before, you will be prompted to download and install the Media Pack program

• Perform the installation procedure (if necessary)

Rendering configuration

• Go to Workshop --> Technical Print Setup and press File:Tastorendering3d.png. The rendering setup panel will open. Within it you can set the parameters of the 3D type previews that Opera is to generate.

Image generation

3D image generation is done within the individual type in the job order.

N.B: In order to display the 3D correctly, you need to correctly construct nodes, so see the chapter in our Node Archive guide.

• Go to Job Orders --> Management to open the job order list
• Select the desired job order (or first create a new one) and press the File:Keydiverse.png button. The list of types in the job order will be shown.
• Click on the File:Keycards.png button and choose the type of 3D print (Patterns or Abacus) and proceed with printing. The program will propose to you after rendering the 3D images in the chosen prints.

N.B: The rendering time may vary depending on the image chosen, the performance of the pc in use and the parameters chosen

Stampe

It is possible to make different types of prints:

1. Abaco 3D
2. Schemi 3D

To activate these printouts follow the steps below:

• Bring yourself within the framework of management
• Press the File:Keychecks.png button. This will open the window of job prints
• Select the desired print type (Abacus 3D types / Schematic 3D types) and press

The following steps should be followed to make a 3D image quote print:

• Take yourself to the Archives framework --> Documents
• Select the document normally used for printing the quote and duplicate it by pressing the File:Equal key.pngSelect the document normally used for printing the quote and duplicate it by pressing the File:Equal key.png
• Give a different name to the newly created document (example: 3D Quote)
• Edit the newly created document, replacing the macro //Abaco// with //Abaco3D//
• Save the document

N.B: This should be done only once

Whenever you want to print a 3D quote, from the Job Documents panel, select the 3D quote and print normally.
