Description

  • The 3D Thumbnail Image on the Details tab does not show sufficient geometric model details
  • Small changes made to a component in an assembly - a small hole added, for example - do not get included in the 3D Thumbnail Image but are shown in the Representation when viewed in ProductView/Creo View
  • 3D Thumbnail quality is poor in the context of an assembly even with a reduced Model Reduction (%) or increased Model Max Triangle Count settings in the Thumbnail Generator Recipe (Recipe Editor: Advanced > Miscellaneous)
