High Resolution Image

Howdy,

Can anyone tell me how to get a high resolution image out of Catia.

Apparently, what I snag using "Tools>Image>Capture..." isn't good enough.

Maybe somehow export the assembly/part it to some other tool?.....

In the same function you described there are options under the "Pixel" tab for changing rendering quality and anti-aliasing.  On top of that you could try to save to a less compressed format such as bitmap or TIFF.

Thanks Gary. I'm aware of those; but, my marketting fellow says its not good enough. So, I was hoping someone had another idea.

I'm toying with exporting as STL, then importing to Blender - to use its rendering capabilities, and then snagging a capture.

(FYI: i'm looking for a free solution)

Use Photo Studio if you have the license.  Go to Start+Infrastructure+Photo Studio.

It lets you create a background environment too and also creates very high resolution images.  Just takes a while to render if you have a slow machine. 

This is the workbench for High Resolution Images, so check out the help section on how to use it.

Thanks Roger.

Unfortunately, I do not have access to that module.

Looks like you need license PHS - Photo Studio 2.  That will get you your high resolution images directly from CATIA. 

I ended up snagging another team's license of 3DVIA Composer. It has a "High Resolution" image capture tool.

With just a little PhotoShop magic, it all worked out.
