How to publish Sketchup job in web pages?

Gaieus

Well then - there are a couple of possibilities starting from (embeddable) 3D PDF files like one posted here:
http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=24855
or another one available here:

Then other solutions (similar to the 3D Warehouse 3D View) like the WebExporter plugin:

Then other solutions like the Hypercosm Teleporter

or even Unity3D where you can walk about in your model:

Or just simply upload and provide a link to everyone.

Thanks for your explanation and links. I'll check all this information and come back to you soon.

Is there no "accept-delay" in 3D warehouse?

Models uploaded to the 3D Warehouse are available almost immediately (at most 1-2 hours). The "accept-delay" is only for the model to be included in the Google 3D Buildings layer (if you requested that).

Hi. I don't see any 'link' or 'include' buttons on the details page of my model. Is this scheme still supposed to work?

Gaieus

They have already removed them from the English language pages (and will remove from the others, too). Try to switch to a different language (top right) and grab the code as long as it is there.

pdonner

Thanks. I got the code snippet. What do you think, will this feature work in the future? I mean: Is this something I should share with the other team members or will the iframe functionality soon disappear altogether?

Gaieus

Well, it utilizes the GE Plugin (with a little experience in html and javascript you could build your custom, much "nicer" applications this way) so I doubt it will not work - just won't be available and easily accessible from the model pages.

I really do not understand why though...

The iframe was very easy to embed.

There are a number of iframe parameters which are more or less self explanatory. Then I should find out if the MID-parameter is generated in 3D Warehouse or if it is the one designated in my SU application?

I do agree with your prediction that the GE Plugin shouldn't pass away very quickly. We should apparently also look for the GE Plugin documentation to be able to do the javascript tweaking you are referring to.

Thanks anyway for all the details.

Gaieus

The mid parameter is simply the end key ("model ID") of the model URL after the mid= part (see attached).

Then comes three different parameters (depending what you want to embed):

&etyp=im for a static IMage,
&etyp=sw for a 3D view (" SWivel") finally
&etyp=ge for an embedded GE Plugin window.
Finally the size parameter: &width=400&height=300

See some pretty cool GE Plugin Examples here.

Hi again. Today when I visited Google 3D Warehouse I noticed a new item called 'Share' which triggered a dropdown menu with the missing Link and Embed items plus related code. For the time being they are available on the English page but our localized version of the site has the old style buttons.

Updated 3D Warehouse page

Gaieus

Yes, that's it!

I knew they removed the embed item then added to a"share" function - I could just not see that link (as I was looking at the wrong place it seems).

Maybe this can interest you

Learn how to create an online, multi-user walkthrough with your 3D model for free.
Not only can this be embedded into a website like an online video but you can share the experience in real-time with other users just be emailing them the link to the page.

Gaieus

Ah yes, I also have an account there. I only started to play around with it before I left for BasCamp and then till now I have had lots of other stuff.

But they have also updated the software also I am into it again!

Hello to follow on from the questions, when the model is embeded in a webpage as a 3d model is it possible to install some code that would allow you click on a certain part ie a electric motor and this would link you to a new model on a seperate screen?
