poor quality layouts in bimx

hii

I’m testing BIMx for presentations for the first time and I think it’s super cool! However, I noticed that the layouts (floor plans, renderings, and elevations) are showing up in poor quality and with off colors in the BIMx model.

 

I’m on a Mac, so I used the print settings workaround to save the layouts as a PDF, and there the quality and colors were flawless. But when I save it as bimx hyper model, they appear slightly blurred and darker colors. 

 

Since one of the main goals is to use BIMx for presentations, I’m a bit confused about the poor layout quality.

Is there a way to export or save the layouts in higher quality into the BIMx Hyper-model?

The rasterisation of the same file on desktop vs mobile is different? Wonder if that might be due to antialiasing?

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to fill the wishlist with inconsistencies or bug fixes. I wrote about this in another thread, point 3) https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/General-discussions/Wishlist-to-reality/m-p/693579/highlight/tru...

If anyone has their own opinion on this, it would be nice if you wrote it in this thread so that the developers have more feedback.

The earlier post in this thread from GS Tech Support explains why BIMx works the way it does now:

If you guys want that to change/improve, the best way to do it is to post a wish on the Wishlist.

Hello @JaredBanks, we fixed the Google Pixel device–specific blurry layout issue caused by an Android 16 update. Please update BIMx on your phone and let us know if you notice anything unexpected.

Note that this bug was unrelated to the original topic of this discussion: the request for vectorial layouts in BIMx. As my colleagues advised, it fits best on our wishlist, which we consider an important but not exclusive input for our roadmap.

Thanks. I updated BIMx and everything is working correctly now.
