Once your masterpiece is complete, CANVAS uses the painted colors while it slices. ![]() These regions are based on unique geometries in your part and allow you to quickly specify colors using the fill tool. Specific to CANVAS is the ability to analyze a model and create various different “regions”. Similar to other design applications, there are brush tools and a fill bucket. These tools allow you to digitally paint color onto each of the triangles in your model. Selecting a single STL in CANVAS brings up the new tools. It took a specially designed slicer and many months of focused development, but we are thrilled to announce that CANVAS now has painting functionality! For many years, our team and others in the industry have attempted to achieve this dream. This has put a damper on one of the unique value-adds of 3D printing - the ability to create unique and custom objects.ĭigitally painting models has been a dream of the 3D printing community. While the library of color models is growing, it’s still in the early days. Designing these models would typically be significantly harder than their single color counterparts. There are millions of 3D models available on the internet, but only a small percentage are split into multiple pieces for printing in multiple colors. However, designing parts was still a challenge. ![]() Palette 2 made a significant step toward making multi-color printing accessible to a new community. This makes it easier than ever to create multi-color designs. With today’s launch, users are able to digitally paint models in CANVAS. Read on to find out about the new features and what’s next for CANVAS. New features, a completely refreshed interface, and numerous improvements behind the scenes take the platform to an entirely new level. ![]() Today, CANVAS moves out of beta with a makeover from head to toe. However, for the next chapter of CANVAS, we need to introduce a couple of big changes. When CANVAS Beta went live last year, it was the first software created to enable a smooth multi-material workflow. After months of hard work, CANVAS is more stable than ever and bug reports are few and far between. At the time, software to design multi-material prints was almost non-existent. We founded Mosaic in 2014 with the dream of making multi-material 3D printing as easy and accessible as possible.
