SoftView takes plans created in SoftPlan and generates 3-D renderings that can include photorealistic interiors/exteriors of all sides of your model, shadow and lighting effects, textures, backgrounds and a user's own images from your camera, the web or a scanner. With SoftView, users are able to get a realistic visual of their design before it is built and show clients exactly what the house will look like; this, the vendor said, lets contractors receive immediate feedback and guarantee customer satisfaction.
