How about building a model on the ipad first.

I am building this PA-28 161 on an ipad using SplashTop Remote. It seems a bit weird that it works so well...I have had no problems building so far. I miss the center mouse button but the "O" shortcut works fine. What a laugh!...an Apple front-end over windows 7 running Mac software...seems the best of all worlds at the moment.

I have been slowly moving my office on to the ipad. The modeling was the last part of the puzzle but as it stands the desktop is sitting in a corner with no visitors. As long as it is on I am in business. The Piper is for a customer who is going to repaint in the spring. We will paint up this model a few times to pick the best design.

I have been involved in testing the ChromeBook and Chrome OS, and have heard remote desktop apps are on their way. I'm hopeful in being able to do the same thing you are doing on the iPad, but in a Chrome OS environment. I'll post up more, once they have something going.

I have been very interested to see how well the program will run on the Ipad. I am not a Mac fan but I can see the huge advantages of being able to show clients the 3D model quickly. A friend of mine who works for Mortenson Construction says they are trying to get the Ipad to be able to run there 4D BIM models but have not had any luck.

What is the largest model (materials, faces,etc) that you have run smoothly on the IPAD?

Thanks and Happy New Years!

AHHH. I see. I am familiar with remote desktops and central based systems so I can see how the I pad can do that now. The simple fact that you can access your files anywhere anytime from one simple device is priceless!

Is it very laggy when rotating a model?

I always look forward to what they come out with next.

Thanks
