      Hello,

      I made a series of sketchup models for a client who would like to post them online as a paid product for viewing only.

      The criteria is that one can view, navigate, go through the scenes tabs, turn on/off layers, etc only through the website. They're not downloable. I suppose you would need a passcode to gain access to view them.

      My question is if anyone know what's the best way to do this.

      Thanks.

        Its not exactly possible to do what you'd like. The closest workarounds include exporting a lot of jpgs, exporting flythrough videos, exporting 3d pdf's and exporting quicktime panorama's of your model.

        Those are all pretty easy to do and give a pretty good representation of the model.

          I found this:

          http://www.hypercosm.com/products/teleporter/sketchup/free/index.html

          Had anyone used this? Is this the closest thing I can get to do what I asked for? The negative is that the end user will need to download this software.

            Yes, Hypercosm is something that's the closest to a SU interface. It needs a plugin on client side however. It has a free version which is great and fun and you can navigate all around although everything that you mentioned (and some more like making annotations on client side) is only available in the pro version.

            Also note that it won't run on every browser however the very major ones are supported and there is already a Mac version (for viewing) which used to be badly needed.
