Vuforia Editor Audio Recording Enhancements for Video Clipping Video clipping capability has been enhanced to allow users to record new audio for a portion of a newly created video clip. Users will now be able to select a specific start and stop point for the new audio recording and will be able to retain the original audio stream from before and/or after the new recording Step Check™ Enhancements Step Check training images displayed in Editor are now delivered via *.cloudfront.net Step check validation areas are now moved while the associated point of interest is being relocated. Prior to this change, the validation area would only be relocated after the point of interest was dragged and dropped. Error messaging has been added to the STEP CHECK tab to communicate when errors occur during training a Step Check-enabled step. Advanced Model Target Reuse Enhancements Advanced Model Target reuse behavior has been updated to ensure that a new Advanced Model Target is not generated w

Vuforia Editor Increased Timeout When Uploading Assets to Allow for Larger Files The timeout when uploading files has been increased to allow for larger files (such as 3D models) that may have previously timed out. Public Filter in Left Navigation Pane Renamed The Public filter in the left navigation pane of the asset library has been renamed to Shared with all, and the icon has been updated. Note: The icon will also be updated on the list/tile view of the asset library, as well as in the SHARE window used to share assets/procedures with the entire organization.    

I have an issue with Waypoints. I work on one 3d model in Creo Illustrate and Vuforia Studio ( I don't add any extra parts ) and I don't change the actual location for my 3d model in animation. The only change in my updated file is an extra figure with fading or flashing parts.  If I add an extra figure to my sequence and then import an updated file to Vuforia Studio and then reopen Studio project my waypoints are moved to the wrong location and I need to put them back one by one.My project contains ~15 views with wayfinders ( 25 waypoints on each). This is a lot of extra work for little change/update/ progress. This is what happens with waypoints on my screen.1- before re-uploading 3d file to VS project 2 -after reuploading 3d file and reopening my Vuforia Studio project Please advice solution that will help me to keep the waypoints on same location after updating and reopening the Studio Project.  

Hey there, is it possible to turn off the camera / tracking?I have a view only with 2D Elements and the camera is always turned on in the background even when the 2D elements take 100% of the screen you will see at the bottom at least 5-10px of the camera when moving the device - e.g. iPad Pro.  It would help us alot if we were able to turn off / on the camera by ourself or at least by switching to other views.

Hello all, I'm new here.I'd like to know if there is a Javascript way to play specific step of PVI sequence at studio?The following line works to play all steps of animation.$scope.app.params.sequenceURL = "app/resources/Uploades/<name of PVI file>";angular.element(document.getElementById('model-1')).scope().play();Instead, I'd like to play only step 2 using JS. Inside this PVI sequence, there is 3 steps.Thanks in advanced!Ewerton Moreira​

Hello there, If an object is in motion, the tracking and positioning effect of ThingMark and Model Target is not very good on Hololens 2. For example, in some cases, we may move a tool around and view it from different angles, but when moving, we often feel that the tracking and positioning are not very good. Can you consider strengthening the tracking of ThingMark and Model Target for moving objects?

Dear Community please advise a solution for waypoints.I use one 3D sequence file with 10 figures-animations + I use 10 views (with 1 Wayfinder+30 waypoints on each view). When I reload the updated sequence file in my Vuforia Studio project I need to correct or reconnect all my Waypoints for all 10 Views.- and I don't want to do it.How I can keep waypoints linked to the 3D model after reloading the updated 3D file to Vuforia Studio View?  

Hi, dear community!Can I skip the sequence step from a list for example - step 3 was made accidentally in a sequence list and I do not want to change it in Creo Illustrate because I use one 3D sequence file with 10 figures-animations + I use 10 views (with Wayfinder waypoints on each view). If I change the sequence file in my Vuforia Studio I would need to correct or reconnect all my Waypoints for all 10 Views.- and I don't want to do it.Please advise how I can skip the sequence step or how I can set up Wayfinder so it does not lose waypoints after reuploading(after the update) the 3D sequence file.

Hello there, What i want: get the name of the current Step and a play function that only plays the currentStep forwarding to next Step. What we have: Play function that have not the expected behavior. It will always increment at the end even though it shouldn't. I would expect this behavior of a function named like 'playAndGoNextStep'. newStep function where we can get informations for the upcoming step that will result some wierd behaviors i will explain in the following text. In my case i use the function '$scope.$on('newStep', function(evt, arg)' where i get the name of the next step in arg. At the start we have step 1 and everything is fine.Some functions are tied to this arg and displays information specific for every step. Now we want to be able to play the same step again and again until the user presses the forward button. e.g. we are on step 1 and the user presses the play button, after that we are automatically on step 2. But we want to stay on step 1This

Hello, do we have a workshop or a guide for "how to create advanced widgets"? Because creating simple widgets is very easy. I've created already some custom widgets for my company, so i have experiences with that, but now i'm running in an uknown issue. I'm trying to change the bahavior of the existent BarCodeSannner. I want to be able to scan continuously until the user presses the "cancel"-button. For this i copied all needed files, renamed the needed parts so that now we have the original "scan"-widget and the copied "scan2". At the widget "scan2" i've deleted the part where the scanner stops after a successful scan. But it seems that it is failing at the initializing part. i have checked everything and followed the same steps as i did at my other widgets but it doesnt work. this why i need an advanced guide but i cant find anything.

Hi all,I'm using the Wayfinder widget in a 3DEye project for Hololens-2, the objective is to guide the user through different position in our company stand in exhibitions.Here the widget setup:Wayfinder widget properties I've left "Auto Advance" unchecked to intercept also the 'departed' event, as demonstrated in @ClayHelberg previous post and also because I need certain things to happen before switch to the next waypoint.I use js listeners to catch the events like these: $scope.$on('arrived', function(evt,arg) { let waypointId = arg.waypointId; console.log('waypointId: ', waypointId, ' type: ', typeof waypointId); console.error(`---- ON WAYPOINT: ARRIVED ----`); $scope.handleWaypointArrived(waypointId); })$scope.$on('departed', function(evt,arg) { let waypointId = arg.waypointId; console.log('waypointId: ', waypointId, ' type: ', typeof waypointId); console.error(`---- ON WAYPOINT: DEPARTED ----`); $scope.handleWaypointDeparted(waypointId); }) In browser preview e

Hi folks-- We are moving to source control with Git, and I've discovered that, by default, Vuforia Studio inserts some Git control files, .gitignore and .gitattributes, in each project folder. Is there a way to remove or modify the defaults for these files? Our repository doesn't support LFS, but the Git files in all the projects are trying to use LFS, which means I can't put projects under source control without having to go in and modify those files. --Clay

Hello Dear PTC Community,Please advise how I can create a solid background for 3D views. Thank you! 

As per this topic:   Hi Tara, As far as I understand the issue - it's born in the Light scenes, where shadow areas appear grey.   We facing the same issue in Creo Illustrate - and looking for a light scene that I can adjust the lights are best for the used figure. But just switching from headlight to 1,2 or 3 light - making not the bis diffrence. I would be more convinced if the light scene can really adjusted by placint the light. Do you also consider this way? But this article belonging not to creo Illustrate - I will create an Idea to get this adressed at the right topic. Regards Robert E.g. even that the left figure is not identical - the grey colored fridge frame is white, but appear due to light sceene grey. The right figure showing the expected result we want to achieve.
