The released version brings significant changes:

1. Scene Editor widget now supports the two-level representation of your scene providing a balance between the complexity of complete tree and simplicity of planar list. You may pick individual parts or entire assembly to apply materials and/or transform an object.
2. Undo and Redo buttons are now available in the actions menu. You can Undo and Redo up to 1024 actions in Light Tracer during the current session. All the events related to transformations and materials adjustments are recorded.
3. The new version provides support for basic animations and video recording. Straightforward and easy to use, our turntable and swing animation tools allow you to create stunning presentations for your models. The animation can be previewed in real-time within Light Tracer’s viewport.

Along with the above-mentioned functionality, you are also provided with support for CAD import (STEP/IGES/BRep), AI denoisers (both NVIDIA and Intel), export renders with transparent background or custom backplates, support of basic rendering passes (RGB index, depth, normal, albedo), as well as improved user experience.
