Up until now, Qt 3D was relying on OpenGL for rendering. With the upcoming Qt 6, Qt will come with a rendering abstraction layer (Rendering Hardware Interface or RHI) to target not only OpenGL but also Vulkan, Metal and DirectX. We are in the process of adding RHI support to Qt 3D. This will allow […]

Kuesa 3D 1.2 release!
Today, KDAB is releasing version 1.2 of the 3D integration workflow Kuesa 3D, built on top of Qt 3D. Kuesa™ 3D is a complete design-to-code workflow solution for 3D in real-time applications, centered around the open glTF™ 2 format, supported by Blender, Maya and 3ds Max. Read the Press Release… In short, Kuesa provides a […]
Debugging and Profiling Qt 3D applications Learn about new 5.15 features and other useful tools
Qt 3D, being a retained mode high level graphic API abstraction, tries to hide most of the details involved in rendering the data provided by applications. It makes a lot of decisions and operations in the background in order to get pixels on the screen. But, because Qt 3D also has very rich API, developers […]
Qt World Summit 2019 talk videos are online
Did you miss the past Qt World Summit? Were you there, but you couldn’t attend that talk or two that you really wanted to see because the conference was so, so packed with awesome content? Fear no more! We are glad to announce that the talks at the past Qt World Summit 2019 in Berlin […]

KDAB will be gold sponsors at QtDay Italy November 20-21st. The event is entirely focused on Qt and Qt-related technologies and has grown to be the biggest Qt event in the region. Presented below is the talk and workshop from KDAB Back to Basics: writing a model (Workshop) – Giuseppe D’Angelo Date/Time Tue Nov 17, […]
New features and changes in the Kuesa 1.1.0 release
KUESA™ is a solution that provides an integrated and unified workflow for designers and developers to create, optimize and integrate real time 3D content in a 3D or hybrid 2D/3D software user interface. Models, including geometry, materials, animations and more, can smoothly be shared between designers and developers. Kuesa relies on glTF 2.0, an open standard […]
3D – Interactions with Qt, KUESA and Qt Design Studio, Part 2
In my last post, I went through a method of creating a simulated reflection with a simple scene. This time I’d like to take the technique and apply it to something a bit more realistic. I have a model of a car that I’d like to show off in KUESA™, and as we know, KUESA […]
Python binding for Kuesa Load, render and manipulate glTF models in your python application using Qt 3D
KUESA™ is a Qt module designed to load, render and manipulate glTF 2.0 models in applications using Qt 3D. Kuesa provides a C++ and a QML API which makes it easy to do things like triggering animations contained in the glTF files, finding camera details defined by the designer, etc. It is a great tool so […]
3D – Interactions with Qt, KUESA and Qt Design Studio, Part 1 how to create a reflection with minimal computational effort
Neither KUESA or Qt 3D Studio will give free reflections. If you know about 3D, you know it requires ray tracing software, not OpenGL. So, I wondered if there would be an easy way to create this effect.
