Here are the important new features and enhancements at a glance:
DIALux is now even faster: Just one mouse click and you will have the results within a much shorter time and just as correct. This is of particular advantage for complex plans.

Solution finder: This helps you to select the most suitable streetlight from a wide range and explains why.
Positioning aids: You only need to mark the wall or the architectural elements and DIALux positions the luminaires automatically in a way which makes good planning sense.
New 3DS assistant: Integrate simple models from the Internet in DIALux (3DS format).
Decoration objects: Declare geometric shapes such as furniture as decoration objects and the calculation will be very much simplified. This reduces the calculation time dramatically.
Enhanced CAD interaction: The export of planning results in .dxf and .dwg files has been greatly improved.
