  • A real-time interactive 3D Scene editor and viewer that supports textures, lighting and cameras.
  • A feature rich Sequencer to combine and integrate 3D scene data, production images and video assets into a timeline.
  • Shareable view pages to provide clarity and alignment, helping with the review and approval process of your project.

Compatibility

For more technical details about WebGL on your machine, see https://webglreport.com

  • Mozilla Firefox

Mobile

  • iOS 8+

Troubleshooting

WebGL

If you run into problems in the 3d viewer, make sure your graphics driver and browser are up-to-date. If that doesn’t help, try one of the other browsers listed above. https://get.webgl.org/ is a good place to start troubleshooting.

Sometimes, your browser may disable WebGL based on your GPU. If you are using a compatible browser, but you see an incompatible warning or the viewer performs very badly, try forcing the browser to use your GPU:

Chrome

  1. Go to Sys tem Settings ( chrome://settings/ > Advanced > System ) and make sure Use hardware acceleration when available is enabled.
  2. Go to chrome://flags/#ignore-gpu-blacklist and enable the Override software rendering list flag.

Firefox

In Firefox, type about:config into the address bar and enable webgl.force-enabled.

Touch Screen / Tablets

Sometimes, navigating a model may not work on a touch screen or tablet device. This is especially common on certain Windows 10 devices. In Chrome, for example, visit chrome://flags/#touch-events and enable the “Touch Events API” flag.
