Compatibility notes

RayViz installs as a SOLIDWORKS add-in, so both your SOLIDWORKS version and Windows environment matter. Check the RayViz Installation Guide for the supported SOLIDWORKS versions of this release before updating. The version-by-version change list is in the RayViz Revision History.

RayViz and TracePro together

RayViz lets mechanical and optical teams work from the same SOLIDWORKS model: apply optical properties, trace rays, and validate packaging in CAD, then hand the model to TracePro for full Monte Carlo simulation, irradiance mapping, and stray light analysis. Learn more on the RayViz product page.
