 1 INTRODUCTION

We are pleased to announce the availability of the new version of Geomagic Wrap.
Geomagic Wrap is the ultimate 3D scan processing solution that enables users to transform point cloud data, probe data and imported
3D formats (STL, OBJ, etc) into 3D polygon meshes for use in manufacturing, analysis, engineering, design, entertainment, art, and
archeology.
Enhancement to this release of Wrap include Scripting 3.0, advance Texture Map controls, new polygon and selection tools.
Additionally, Wrap now supports 2D Dimensioning for fully analyzing mesh data for manufacturing and 3D Printing.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
For the latest system requirements information and to learn about specific qualified system configurations, go to the System
Requirements page in the Geomagic Support Center. Some users have had success running system configurations that deviate from
the supported list. In such cases, these configurations are not officially supported by 3D Systems, Inc.
Additionally, we test a variety of hardware platforms in combination with the graphics subsystems. While we make every attempt to
be as thorough as possible, hardware manufacturers change their products frequently and may be shipping newer products or have
discontinued active support for others. Check the support section of the Web site for the latest system requirement information and
specific qualified systems.

DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL SOFTWARE

You can download and install the software from gettingstarted.geomagic.com, select the Geomagic Wrap product, then click the
“Download” button to download Geomagic Wrap.
In addition, you can manually check for any updates using the Check for Updates command. If a valid maintenance code is
activated, and your computer is connected to the Internet, the application will check if a newer version is available and will download it
automatically for installation.

ACTIVATE LICENSE

 3 NEW FEATURES AND ENHANCEMENTS

WHAT’S NEW IN 2017.0.0

New Unroll Tool
A new Unroll tool has been added to support editing a rolled polygonal mesh. This tool enable you extract barely visible detail, reveal
data that has been previously missed due to the perspective of the original sketch, and correct the original design intention.

Dimensioning Tools
The basic dimensioning tools are now available in the Analysis tab. With the dimensioning tools, you can measure linear and angular
dimensions, or radius and diameter of a feature.

Crease Angle Selection

The Crease Angle Selection tool has newly been added. You can select an area of an object and easily expand the selection by
dragging the mouse up and down.

UV Map Creation
Enhanced control of UV Texture Map creation. You can now control over how the UV Texture Map is layed out.

5 KNOWN ISSUES

Capture
• If you are using the Quick Probe command and you are probing a part with an existing CAD plane, probing a stray point can
cause a mismatched set of features to be created between the Test and Reference objects.

Plug-ins
• The Scanning Plug-In setting (on the Options dialog box, Hardware/Digitizers section) allows you to select probing-only device
plug-ins. When a probing-only device is selected using this drop-down list, no settings appear when you use the Scan command
on the Capture tab. Make sure that you select the appropriate scanner plug-in using the Scanning Plug-in setting.
