We are happy to present the innovative packaging design projects created by the talented students from the University of Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Under the guidance of Assoc. Professor Mladen Stančić, Ph.D., Vice Dean for Academic Affairs and Head of the Department of Graphic Engineering, students in the Faculty of Technology’s Graphic Engineering program were given a unique opportunity to push the boundaries of packaging design with a real-business project. Last semester, the students undertook the challenge to redesign the packaging for the confectionery brand Kraš, a Croatian company that is a leader in the Western Balkans for its high-quality chocolates, biscuits, and wafers. This project provided students with valuable industry experience while allowing them to harness the full potential of EngView Package & Display Designer software. EngView’s advanced tools enabled these students to bring their creative concepts to life through precision and innovation. The students’ projects reflect their growing skills and creative vision. We’re proud to showcase their hard work and encourage them to Dream, Create, and Succeed as they continue to explore their talents.

EngView is excited to announce the release of version 2024, which features key UI optimizations, smart new features, and improvements in the collaboration platform EngView Shared Space. These improvements are all driven by a single goal — to help packaging professionals work smarter, not harder. Display of Alternative Units For designers who work with both metric and imperial measurements, we’ve introduced the ability to display dimensions in multiple units simultaneously. Users now have full control over the dimension display in both drafting and 3D views. You can easily switch between millimeters, inches, centimeters, and other units, or opt to display alternative units directly below the dimension line for quick reference. Additionally, users can now select multiple dimension lines in 3D models. New ECMA Designs We have added new parametric templates to the ECMA section of the EngView Library of Packaging Templates. Enhanced Component Design Workflow While drafting parametric components, EngView now offers greater customization for setting relationships between objects. The new options allow designers to maintain continuous relation settings or turn off the mode after each individual relation is defined. Usability Enhancements To help designers work more efficiently, we’ve reorganized the UI for a more intuitive experience. The revamped Preferences menu (formerly called Options) now includes expanded settings for key tasks like material management, drafting colour selection, and CAM operations. New additions include: Catalog management for materials on rolls Streamlined materials and process management Enhanced parameter template settings Simplified CAM operation configurations Zoom and fit commands are now conveniently grouped in both the View menu and context menus. We’ve also added a new "Front Side" command, accessible via the View menu, that makes it easier to switch between the front and rear views of a drawing with a single click. Shared Space Enhancements EngView Shared Space, our collaboration platform for sharing 3D models, has received several exciting upgrades. The new list view helps users filter and search designs with ease. We’ve also improved the animation bar, allowing users to scroll smoothly by dragging and clicking through different animation steps and phases. The zoom function has been refined to improve user experience, now zooming in the direction of your mouse click rather than just the centre of the screen. All these enhancements in the October release reflect our ongoing commitment to improving the user experience and providing designers with the tools they need to work faster and smarter.
