3D Configurator (desktop app)

📌 R2027x GA | 3D Configurator decommissioning

Starting from R2027x, the ENOVIA 3D Configurator application will be removed from the Configuration Engineer (CFG) role.

ENOVIA 3D Configurator is now considered as a legacy app.

The ENOVIA Model Definition application is now the strategic replacement solution. 

ENOVIA Model Definition enables users to define configurations and provides real-time 3D preview capabilities during the configuration process.

ENOVIA Model Definition enables the creation of Product Configuration objects which are supported in both web and desktop client environments.

The removal of ENOVIA 3D Configurator  does not impact any existing data, meaning Pre-defined Configurations created with 3D Configurator will remain available, fully supported, and editable to ensure business continuity.

For existing Pre-defined Configurations, maintenance can continue using the Properties editor in the Rich Client, ensuring continuity.

🎯 Strategic direction

This evolution is part of a broader strategy to simplify the Configuration Engineer (CFG) role and focus on strategic, web-aligned apps.

 

👉 Recommendation

Customers should start planning their transition toward Model Definition and Product Configuration, which are the long-term strategic solutions.

 

In summary, the decommissioning of ENOVIA 3D Configurator marks a clear shift toward a modern, unified configuration approach based on Model Definition and Product Configuration, ensuring long-term scalability, consistency, and alignment between web and desktop based environments.
