Support & Training - What's New

Global Illumination

The way that light floods into a room through a window or door can make a real difference to the colours and textures used in that area. The latest version of Planit Fusion uses a new feature to generate natural light that behaves in exactly the same way as real light would, giving photo realistic images.

Google SketchUp™

Planit Fusion’s link to Google SketchUp™ allows you to easily search for a range of 3D objects and import them from the Google 3D Warehouse™ into your room design to further improve the reality of your representation.

Improved Tiling

Planit Fusion’s improved tiling allows you to select single or multiple walls for the application of a surface covering of your choice. In fact, you can now tile any surface or part of a surface and use your own tile designs via a new tile import facility. The application can also provide you with final material quantities and costs by calculating the total coverage of a given area using the cost of individual tiles as a base. This is particularly useful when combined with the new ability to choose where you would like to start tiling and therefore make best use of production materials.

Multi-screen Functionality

Multiple windows can now be opened simultaneously, giving the user the opportunity to freeze one or more windows, whilst making amendments to a design or developing a new design in the next. Alternatively, if two display devices are being used, the customer facing display can present a design at a given point in time whilst the designer makes further modifications to the room using the other display device.
